Spanish-Speaking Players Spark Chicago

NEW YORK iP Major
league baseball players tradition

but not to the brilliant Spanish-
peaking sparks of Ihe Chicago
White Sox.
There in Chico rarratquel, rated

husinta. lie came up via Caracal,
Venezuela.
There in Ortenten Minono, the
Cuban speedster. If e ii battling

ship and ift a apoed demon aa welt.
And to the liat muat now be
added I.uia Aloma. another Cuban,
who pitched a shutout Sunday in
his first big league start to bring
a much needed victory over the
Athletics.
Frank Lane, general manager of
Ihe White Sox, is proudest of hia
deal that brought Carrasquel to
the team from tha Brooklyn Dod
ger organization.
"Funny thing," I.ane recalled,
'Branch Rickey wai trying to ped-'
rile us Sam Jethroe, the outfielder
and Pan Bankhead, tha pitcher,
both of whom were with Montreal.
But we were looking for a re
placement for shortstop i,uke Ap
pling. "Rickey had five shortstops
Bobby Morgan, Rocky Bridges,
Panny OTonncll, Buddy flicks
and Chico Carrasquel. fie asked
for a quarter of a million dollars
for Morgan. About half that much
for Bridges and so on. Ha rated
Carrasquel fourrh or fifth.
Wanted Carrasquel
"The one man I wanted waa
Carrasquel. I knew about him from
an umpire who had seen him in
Venezuela in the winter. But I
didn't dare tip my hand. Other
wise, the price would be doubled
or tripled."
So Rickey and Lane talked and
talked. I.ane departed eventually
and Rickey had the impression
that the White Sox had agreed to
take Jethroe and Rankhead. Car
rasquel. Rickey just couldn't re
member. A few days later, Lane
phoned him.
"Branch," he said, "when can
I announce tha purchase of Car
rasquel to the newspapers?"
"How about Jethroe and Bank,
head," countered Rickey.
"Let's discuss that later." said
the smooth Mr. Lane, "right now
I'm interested in Carrasquel. You
gave me your promise on him."
"I did?" boomed Ihe puzzled
deacon. "I don't remember. Rut
if you say that we made tha deal,
we made it. I never go back on
my word. He's yours."
That's how the White Sox got
Carrasquel. The price tag was
$.10,000. Manager Paul Richards
says he is the greatest shortstop
he has ever seen. Ha batted .282
last year, his freshman season. In
the field, he covers tremendous
ground. He is a floater who eases
elfortlessly into position for im
possible stops.
Chico, who has a great sense
of humor, couldn't speak a wsird
of F.nglish when he first arrived.
His vocabulary haa improved only
slightly since. But that has been
no hindrance.

! Minoi Popular
! Carrasquel got a break when
i the White Sox landed Minoso. Now
he has a Spanish speaking team-
mate. Minoso hai been with the
' .Sox )ei than two monthi but al
ready he rivals Carrasquel as the
, most popular player on the club,
j The ever-laughing Minny, in a
short time, has become the stand
out player on the squad, his
; shoulders are so broad that he
looks bigger than he is at 1V10 and
1 180 pounds. He hits a ball with
! tremendous power and he can run
: like a deer. He throws with
strength and accuracy.
"The best deal we ever made
was gelling Minoso," said Rich
ards. "1 wouldn't trade him for
! anyone in the league. I first saw
him on the coast. He was playing
! with San Diego. One day he'd he at
third base, the next in the outfield.
But no matter where he was, he
t was always beating us with a long
hit or a great calch. What drew
i me to him was his great desire
; to win. 1 don't believe there is a
player today who can give you the
thrill Minoso can."
Kicked Out
The most humiliating episode in
young Minoso s brief profesional
career came last Thursday when
he was elected from a game by
I'm ni re Joe Fa parr Ma for "cuss
ing" over a decision.
Minoso had been picked off sec
ond hase. He put up a mild squawk
before returning sheepishly to
the bench. The whole Ihing an
peared forgotten until suddenly, as
Minoso was returning to his po
sition in right field in between it)
nings, Paperlla thumbed him out
of the game.
"Why he kick me out," cried
Minoso later with tears in his
eves. "I no sav nnssing to heem.
When I go hack to outfield I talk
hut only to myself. And I say it
in Spanish. He no onnerstand Span
ish. t no call him bad names or
anysing. I call myself. I always
mad at myself when I make a
mistake."
