Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - August 25, 1952, Winnipeg, Manitoba press monday August 25, 1952 Page views on sport y. Poor year for Kings and managers cards Lead bitter Battle Carman Man., Catcher. New York never was much future , anyhow and lately things seem to have gone from bad to worse. All Over the world the Bottom has dropped out of the Liege lord Dodge this summer. In Egypt Farouk tossed his sceptre a spare shirt Anc the family Champagne into a Saratoga trunk and took it on the Lam for Capri. The King of Jordan brought Junior into the firm Hung a sign Reading out to lunch on his own office door and departed. In Iran they tossed Mossadegh out of the rear door and he came Back through the window on the first Bounce. It won t be Long now before the moving Van pulls up to the White House door. In baseball crowned Heads have rolled like beads from a broken string. Without bothering to look it up one May Hazard a guess that the summer of 1952 has established a new High in the mortality rate dug out Royalty during any championship season. First the braves plucked the Robes of authority off Tommy Holmes who had succeeded Billy Southworth so quickly he was not yet dry behind the swivel chair. Then Bill Veeck darkening to the whimpering of the Browns Cut Rogers Hornsby s buttons off and knighted Marty Marion whose seat on the cardinals Bench was still warm. A fan loafing in Scandinavia came upon a stray copy of the Herald Tribune s Paris edition and was bemused to read that the Phillies had won their third straight Victory for their new manager Steve o he inquired of a Man More recently arrived from Home what happened to Eddie had t you Man said. They pulled the rugs from under him. Same like red Rolfe in Detroit. You did t know about that either the manager of the tigers a minute no prompt ing right on the heels of that news came word that Hornsby was ing regularly again having taken Luke Sewell s place at the table eat in Cincinnati. Unless you be been out touch for a couple of months you May Slot appreciate what an eventful season this has been up to now. If anybody had suggested last june that the world series might be played by the Cleveland indians and the St. Louis cardinals his relatives would have been downright humiliated. Yet As this is written the indians Are fighting to hold first place against the Yankees and the cardinals prospects overtaking the dodgers Are just As Good As those the giants. Would you swoon with astonishment if the cardinals won the or. Casey Stengel was asked sunday. A a Well i la Tell said the benevolent despot of the Yankees i played pm some games in Florida last Spring and i watched pm in training. That Guy put in some things that if you were an old Guy and you put pm in they d copy translated from or. Stengel s Mother Tongue which makes no provisions for proper nouns this meant that Eddie Stanky the apprentice Genius of the cardinals was employing methods of manage ment which had or. Stengel s approval. He was very strict with them on the or. Stengel said. And they be got some Guys there that you Don t have to be so strict with. I be read about them. He put in things like where you make certain mistakes it costs you a Little Money and All the fines go into a. Line. Man cardinals returned to the Driver s seat in the Best of seven Man Dak baseball league Semi final series with Winnipeg giants sat urday night at Downing the Winnipeg giants 6-4 before a crowd of close to 900. The game was the sixth in. The Best of seven series. Carman has taken 13-6, 8-6 and 6-4 victories. Giants have won 12-1 and 4-2, while the first game was tied 7-7. Tut game was a Pitcher s Duel All the Way. Gentry Jessup the Long climbed right harder of the cards gave up seven hits while lefty Hal Price of the giants Al Lowed eight. Price got 12 men on strikes and walked three. Jessup whiffed five and passed three. The cards never trailed. They hopped into a 1-0 Lead in the Sec Ond inning and scored two More in the top of the fifth before giants got one Back in the Bot Tom of the same Frame. Carman added another in the sixth and two in the eighth before giants made a belated bid in the eighth bagging three runs before Umpire Jack Carrigan called Al Bry ant out. On strikes a Call that brought considerable comment from Winnipeg and ended with the ejection of Lou Louden win More about football continued from Page 16 the bases were loaded with two out and the count was three balls and two strikes on Bryant when the crucial pitch came in. Giants claim the pitch High and argued the mint but Carrigan ruled it Lince High. It was then that Louden was chased. . Carman fifth with one out Jessup reached first on an error to Nick Cannuli Conley and Sam Hill followed with singles Hill s rap scoring Chick. Longest flied out to left Field scoring Gonley. The eighth produced two More runs for Carman when with one out again Sonny Andrews walked and Jack Schaeffer reached first on another error to Cannuli after Jessup struck out Andrews and Schaeffer scored on Conley s triple. Giants got rolling in the eighth. Cowan Hyde opened with a walk Jesse Douglas singled Lou Den reached first As Douglas was Cut Down on a fielder s Choice. After Lester. Lockett grounded out Johnny Washington singled to Cen tre scoring Hyde and when Seha Effer uncorked a bad throw Lou Den came on to score. Cannuli reached first on an error to Sonny several wobbly and unsure passes he tossed during the night. Intended for Bud Korchak in the goal area it was intercepted by will Godfrey on the Calgary goal line and run out to the 14. Huffman again stopped the Cal Gary ground attack and Tinsley rushed Spaith on third Down. The kick was Short and James caught it with heels flying. Bandiera s penalty crossed five Points. Both teams were stopped Short of a first Down on the next Exchange and were forced to kick. When Jacobs punted to West on the Calgary eight Fine stamp Back was thundered upon by Art Felker and fumbled. Ernie Becker recovered for bombers on the Calgary 15. Jacobs hit Mcallister with a pass on the one Yard line but the bom ser fullback fumbled into touch. There was a penalty for roughing the passer and the Ball was moved half the distance to the goal Pool for the team. I noticed he was watching his pitchers real close and he Naa everybody on the team Bunting. He was a Good bunter himself you know and i guess when he was playing against the club with the giant s and the braves Why maybe he said to himself this club is hitting away too much maybe he said to himself this club Ain t Gonna hit As much playing Piggy Back. Some others so we better learn How to move that run around the t d the favorite bomber running play Jacobs evading a Tacker sugar foot to the right and pointing worked for major. Korchak took the Ball Over the shoulder with a stamped bases i noticed in practice had Emall Bunting to third base and Bunting to first base not just one direction. New manager if he s smart gets to know certain things about his player after he s had pm for a while. I happen to know for instance that he s got a couple of that club that if you gave pm the hit and run sign Why they d get it tomorrow. So chances Are he s found out about Guys and he Don t try to use any Tricky stuff with them. He another thing i bet they re taking More Good pitches than they used to take and getting More walks than they used to. You know Lisov that Guy was himself about getting walks. Spring i noticed he had some of pm doing like him at the plate scrunching Down a Little to make the strike zone smaller and keeping this Elbow sticking up Here so if it s a soft pitch they might take it on the chances Are he said to some of pm look when i was with the giants this is How we pitched you. You Don t have to Chase that kind of a pitch. You can Duck under it and get some walks he seems to be using his pitchers real Good too. Like i say he does somethings that if you they d copy were an old Guy and you did pm Why thus or. Stengel s answer to the question about swooning with Surprise Over the cardinals. The answer is no.

I talked to the Carman management about it and they wanted to play saturday be cause that was our Home game and our Gate and the big Sun Day Gate would be theirs he said and continued if you look Down their schedule you la find they Carman did t play one Home game on a saturday this year simply because saturday is a bad Day for baseball in Carman.
