New Pitching Ace Dutch Leonard Shines In 1-0 Win
Washington’s Dutch Leonard, nicknamed the new pitching ace, matches Bob Feller with a one run and 13 inning duel against the Indians. Leonard’s peculiar release and two speeds on his pitch, a knuckleball misnomer, keep batters off balance as Rick Ferrell calls for risky dipsy doodle signals. Leonard, a 200 pound veteran with a bald head and gold tooth, persists through injuries and his long road to recognition in Washington. He began in Mobile in 1930 and has since become a fixture with the Nationals.

Leonard's strong start defies early draft doubt in 1935
Kalsemine ran Brooklyn in 34 and stayed by the Gowanus in 35. Leonard has shown control near perfect in four spring starts with 26 hits allowed in 36 innings, seven walks, one earned run in 19 innings, and 17 scoreless frames. Griffith drafted him for 7500, betting on a 15 win Atlanta season before the arm injury. He shut out the Athletics in a dramatic early-season win over Cleveland.
