Basically like Frank said.

I have a CD from the Baseball Hall of Fame from the Centenial in 1939, and that's how they pronounced it -- I think that's even how he was announced before he took the podium. Plus, it's how it was pronounced in the song Baseball, Gee, It's A Wonderful Game, in the Ken Burns documentary. Plus if you buy the Glory of Their Times CD, you can hear his contemporaries call him that. And finally, Wikipedia has it like this: la-ZHOWAY

Game, set, match...
