Sox Open at Fenway Today

Boston's pennant winning Red Sox open the 1947 Hub baseball season this afternoon against the washed-out Washington Senators at Fenway Park, as Manager Joe Cronin sends his ace right-hander, Cecil (Tex) Hughson, to the mound to oppose "Bobo" Newsome.

Besides last year's fence-busting luminaries, spectators will see Ed Pollagrini and rookie Sam Mele in the Sox' fluid third base and right field slots.
