Chicago Shut Out by Ruffing
"Good pitching beats good hitting" is an old baseball adage.

Well, good pitching also beats bad hitting.

Red Ruffing of the Washington Senators proved the point at Comiskey Park today, holding the Chicago White Sox to 2 hits in a complete game shutout victory.

"Ruffing made us look real bad today," White Sox manager said in his postgame interview. "He was outstanding. He was down in the zone with all his pitches. Everything was sinking."

Ruffing had 2 strikeouts and gave up no walks as the Senators took the 4-0 win.
