The averages are of players who participated in fifty or more contests, and include games of Wednesday. Ruth continues to be the sensat- jon of the league. This was evid- enced again in the series just play- ed in Chicago between the Yankees and the White Sox. For the four days a crowd officially estimated at 126,000 came out to witness the games with the hope of seeing the big southpaw slugger crack the ball out of the fleld. Three times during | the series was Ruth able to "deliver", on his specialty. On the second day | he drove the ball on a line into the right field bleachers for four bases. Claude Williams was pitching, and it was the third homer Ruth had col- lectéd at his expense. This smash marked Ruth's 38th home run. Against Faber the following day he was unable to hit, because the game was close, and he was ordered pass- ed. 'In the opening game with Ci- cotte on the mound Ruth was help- less. Yesterday he added two to his record, which is now 41, he having! landed on Khmke of Detroit the day before.
