Boston's Red Sox made a good buy when they brought Joe Heving back to the majors two years ago. Heving, who had been in and out of the majors since 1930, won 11 and dropped but three for the Red Sox last year, appearing in 46 games. His showings were mainly in relief roles, as he started only five games. His record shows a better than .500 average against every club in the League except the Yankees, against whom he shows neither losses nor wins. Heving originally started in big league ball with the Giants.
