Training Camp Briefs
San Francisco, March 23 - (UP)—The Chicago Cubs today hailed two rookie pitchers and one veteran who came within an eyelash of a no-run, no-hit exhibition game.
☆ ☆
Rookies Bob McCall and Ben Wade and vet Johnny Schmitz worked for the Cubs yesterday as they stopped the San Francisco seals, 9 to 0.
Sarasota, Fla.-The Boston Red Sox were elated today with the condition of southpaw Mickey Harris, star of yesterday's 4 to 0 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals.
Harris gave up only one hit in five innings, a single by Red Schoediienst in the fifth. Mel Parnell followed Harris to the hill and gave up only a ninth-inning triple by Larry Miggins in the last four frames.
☆ ☆
St. Petersburg, Fla.-The New York Yankees' first experimentation with Bobby Brown as a first base-man produced negative results today.
Brown, versatile infielder, proved extremely awkward around the bag during yesterday's 7 to 6 victory in 10 innings over Cincinnati.
Stockton, Cal.—The New York Giants marked up a 10-inning 3 to 2 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates yesterday, the winning run strolling home when Nick Strincevich walked Wally Westrum with the bases loaded.
☆ ☆
Los Angeles — Veteran slugger Hank Greenberg said today that he has not yet made up his mind whether or not he will sign with the Cleveland Indians.
Greenberg played nine innings yesterday with the Indians' "B" team which defeated the University of Southern California, 6 to 4. He made one double and had 14 errorless chances at first base.
The Tribe "A" team outsluggled the St. Louis Browns, 12 to 10.
Lakeland, Fla.—Pitching miscues by Ruffus Gentry and sparkling infielding by the Boston Braves highlighted the Braves 2 to 1 victory over the Detroit Tigers yesterday.
Heusser Back At Age Of 39
Clubed Trujillo. March 23—(UP)—At 39 Ed Heusser, a curve ball artist who has traveled most of baseball's highways, is coming back for another crack at the majors—and this time he hopes to make it stick. A 19-2 record with Montreal last season earned him this shot and he aims to make the most of it.
"Naturally, at 39 years old I can't count on a starting role, but I expect the Dedgers to use me in relief as well as spot me against the clubs which can't hit curve ball pitching too well." Heusser explained. "Also, I'm helping coach the young pitcher's."
"I figured I could help Brooklyn and I was even more amazed when I learned that I had been assigned to the Rovals outright."
Heusser revealed he was disappointed last spring when the Dodgers sent him to their Montreal farm club.
Shifting around the baseball map has been quite a hobby for the 6 foot, 1 inch, 180 pound right hander. Heusser started his baseball career under the name of Collins, in 1929. Before he got his first shot in the majors with the Cardinals in 1935 he had been with Danyville in the Three-Eye, Houston in the Texas, Rochester in the International, Columbus in the American Association, Elmira in the Pony and Knoxville in the Southern Association.
After two years with the Cards he went to Memphis and Columbus before the Phillies gave him a trial. Then it was back to Memphis for another year before the Athletics gave him a chance. One season there and he was back with Memphis, thence to Atlanta and then to Los Angeles.
It was Birmingham after that and then to the Reds for four seasons.
