Buddy Hassett starred on both the diamond and gridiron for Manhattan College before becoming the property of the New York Yankees. He played as a first baseman for Wheeling in 1933, Norfolk in 1934, and Columbia in 1935, batting .337 for them. He was purchased in 1936 by the Brooklyn Dodgers, where he appeared in every game his first season and batted .310. During the 1938 season with Brooklyn, he alternated between first base and the outfield. Buddy was traded to the Boston Bees, along with Jimmy Outlaw, for Gene Moore and Ira Hutchinson on December 13th, 1938. For three years of major-league baseball he has played 408 games, getting 464 hits, for a batting average of .304.
"Jim" Bloodworth is a promising young rookie with the Washington Senators. Property of the "Nats" since 1935, Bloodworth has not yet spent a full season in the major leagues. He was brought up for the first time in 1937, optioned out again, and recalled from Springfield last year. In 83 games with the Nats last year, he hit .289 and drove in 40 runs, not at all bad for a youngster getting his first real crack at the tough American League pitchers. He played both second and the out- field last year, and this year has been cavorting at second.
