Wally Hebert from the Chronology
May 2, 1943 - Behind the strong pitching of Wally Hebert and Bob Klinger‚ the Pirates twice shut out the Cubs‚ winning 3-0 and 1-0. Hi Bithorn loses game one. In the second game‚ Cubs hurlers Dick Barrett and Lon Warneke combine on a hardluck one-hit loss: Vince DiMaggio's hit in the 4th is the only safety. Barrett, 35 and making his NL debut, can’t blame his offense on the new cement ball; 1942 baseballs are used.
Dec 14, 1933 - The Browns acquire OF Smead Jolley‚ P Ivy Andrews‚ and $40‚000 from the Red Sox for Carl Reynolds. St. Louis then sends Jolley‚ plus SS Jim Levey‚ and P Wally Hebert to Hollywood (PCL) for SS Alan Strange. Strange will go to Washington for veteran SS Lyn Lary before the end of the season. Levey‚ meanwhile‚ will return east in the Fall to join the Pittsburgh Steelers‚ where he will play halfback for 3 seasons.
