Show Yanks Hammer Out Most Home Runs During 1923 One of these tireless statisticians furnishes some dope on how, when and where home runs were hit In the majors ma-jors the past season. It appears that the Yankees not only made more home runs than any other team in the American Amer-ican league, but also more circuit dilves were made In the New York p-irk than any other In the circuit. The short right and left field fences at New York made the home run wallop wal-lop a simple trick. Each visiting team managed to hit at least one for the circuit In New York. The White Sox and Tigers failed to get a home run In Cleveland. The Tigers Ti-gers also fulled to connect for a homer In Washington. There were fewer home runs at Washington than any other park, as usually Is the case. Visiting teams at Fenway field in Boston made but thirteen homers. In New York the seven rivals calling on the Yunks drove out fifty home runs. |
