Battle of Sauer and Moss In Race For IL Home Run Title
Sports editor Lawrence J. Skiddy chronicles Henry Sauer of Syracuse and Howard Moss of Baltimore as they chase the International League home run record. Moss, thriving in Baltimore Park with a short left-field fence, has 17 homers before May 27, while Sauer has 11. Moss leads the all-time pace and could threaten Joe Hauser’s 63 HR mark set in 1930, with Sauer aiming for 41 in 1947.
