Runaway For New York Yankees Unlikely In American
Oulton Tex April 4 U P The name of Bob Feller is still box office magic The 19 year old Iowa farmboy was the principal magnet which drew 10000 persons out here yesterday to see the Cleveland Indians down the New York Giants 4 to 2 in an exhibition game Feller nursed along carefully by Manager Oscar Wirt this season but in the clubs Sunday pitcher gave a masterful exhibition as he outdueled the great Carl Hubbell in a fine mound battle Yesterday s game marked the third straight Sunday that Feller had been sent to the box in exhibition contests and gave additional weight to the belt Vitz was spooting when he said the youthful right hander would work in regular turn along with other pitchers on the staff Feller flashed his finest form of the Spring training campaign yesterday and indicated he will come down to the opening of the championship campaign in top form rather than tagged out as was the case a year ago The speed pall phenomenon marked six innings He granted seven hits all of them singles and permitted two runs Feller struck four six batsmen and walked four The impressive thing about the youngster s performance was the smart fashion in which he held runners on base Never once did Feller permit a Giant runner to get a dangerous lead off the sack Only one New Yorker attempted to steal and he was thrown out by Catcher Rollie Hemsiey Cleveland scored one run in the second and three in the third to give Feller a 4 to 2 advantage when he left the box Al Milnar lucky southpaw protected that margin by blanking the Giants in the final three innings The clubs meet again today at Austin New York ABLR E Moore Bartell Berger etc
