The first man to bat with the Tigers is Jojo White, the center fielders. Left-handed batter, White so far has two hits in the series. He's a tremendous field of this fellow, one of the best hunter-fielders in baseball today. He can go and travel out there in the outfield. He has a good, sure, steady arm, but his hitting this year has not been so strong. And consequently, manager Mickey Kotlin has had to do quite a bit of shifting around with his outfield.

But here's why he's done very well so far in the series, and he's leading off now in the third game, which is about to get underway. He's getting a sign now from Hartnett. Here's the wind up. The game is on. It's right over the heart of the plate. A beauty right in there. Back at third, jerked at short, Billy Herman at second,

tabaret at first, Demery in right field, instrument center field, and Gellan left. A slowball

right over the plate. Strike two. That was right in there. Mimey Shubel is coaching at third for

Detroit. There comes the next pitch.

It broke a little bit low that time.

There was a quick curve that just broke and broke a little bit low.

And the count is ball one and strike two.

Our position here is just a little bit off to the left of the plate.

Letting right down the first baseline.

Next pitch just missed the corner.

A slow curve ball and a pound is ball two in strike two on white. Nobody on the bases. The ballgame has just started. The first man up in the third game of the World Series. Pubbs were on the first game, three to nothing. Tigers won the second game, 8 to 3. Next 50 drives, foul, a liner into the boxes down the right field line. There's the usual scamp to the ball down there. You know a baseball is doing a regular game of the season as the 12 souvenir.

But a World Series baseball, that's something else again. That's a real souvenir.

Nobody on the bases in a count of two and two on right.

He's posed the rubber out there. He's all set down. There comes the pitch.

It's a slow ball and he's strung.

The catcher dropped the ball and he's torn at the first base and he's out.

Hart met the Cabaretta.

Hartman dropped the third strike.

Dropped with his feet, however, and had an easy time picking the ball up and throwing

right out at first face.

Hart met the Cabaretta.
