These Sports of the Times columns are fun to read, even if I don't always know what the heck he is talking about.

A bit snarky ;)
The Yankees won the pennant in 1939 and would again three more times before the Sox won it in 1946.

The first installment of the 1939 Major League Standings is at #5. Sorry the numbers are a little blurry. I will endeavor to avoid that in the future.

The opening of this season will be the changing of the guard. On April 20, the Red Sox trotted out their prize rookie Ted Williams. Ten days later Lou Gehrig will play his last game.

(Doesn't mean it wasn't there, but I wasn't looking for it so if it was there I missed it.) But, believe me, Gehrig taking himself out of the lineup will be a big story. When the reason for it becomes known in June it will be a huge story. It seems Lou was kind of popular around N.Y.
