New York Yankees star Bill Skowron will miss at least two weeks after a lower back muscle tear suffered fielding in the second game. Roy Sievers of the Washington Senators pulled a left calf muscle scoring on Jim Lemon’s single, sidelining him about a week after similar spring stiffness. The Yankees won the opener 4 3 while Senators captured the nightcap. Skowron heads to hospital for evaluation and will wear a back corset for four more days. Sievers previously dealt with a spring-time muscle strain that kept him out for three weeks.
