Rizzuto Tops with Stengel
By FRANK ECK
(AP New Fwturcj ftporti Editor)
New York The smallest reg
ular In the majors is one of the
biggest Yankees. He is Philip
Francis Rizzuto, the five-foot-six
shortstop, a product of Long
Island's sandlots.
Called Scooter by his team
mates for the manner in which
he dashes around the bases,
Rizzuto has missed only three
games at short all season. It
was the result of a slight con
cussion he sustained in Boston
when i' collided with Johnny
Fesky on June 29.
Following the collision he
had a tremor in his throwing
arm. But he was back In ac
tion as a pinch hitter three
games later.
I'll take him over any short
stop in the game," says Manager
Casey Stengel. "It's marvelous
the way he eats up those ground
balls and there's no one better
on coming in for slow bounders.
And he's tops in bunting."
Rizzuto is so small that he
easily could pass as the young
est of the Yankees. However,
he's 31 and a veteran of three
World Series. In 1942 he hit .381
against the Cardinals, getting
eight hits in the five-game
series. In 1947 against the
Dodgers he also made eight hits
and hit .308.
Rizzuto put on one of his
finest performances of the sea
son during a recent Yankee Sta
dium game against Bob Feller
and the Cleveland Indians. He
accounted for two runs with a
triple and two singles. But that's
only part of the story.
He forced Feller, a veteran
of close to 400 big league games,
to commit a balk. Rizzuto had
a big lead and was on his way
to second. Feller noticed him
out of the corner of his right eye
and made a motion to throw to
second. When Rizzuto saw
Feller's move, Phil put on the
brakes and headed back to first.
Feller failed to go through with
his throw and the four umpires
simultaneously called "balk."
Three pitches previous to
Feller's balk, Rizzuto singled
to center to score Ed Lopat
from second base. Larry
t 44 ,. 1
Doby's throw to the plate to
get Lopat was cut off by
Mickey Vernon, the first base
man. Rizzuto rounded first on
the hit. As nobody was cover
ing first, Vernon ran back In
an effort to tag Rizzuto. All
little Fhll did In returning to
first was hit the dirt with a
beautiful belly slide that left
Vernon groping in thin air to
make the tag.
Rizzuto has been doing things
like this all season. He hit .307
as a rookie in 1941 but the ex
perts say this is his best sea
son. He made well over 150
hits and scored more than 100
runs. It's by far his best sea
son as a team man.
He has played more than any
other Yankee. In a season that
has brought an average of three
injuries a week on the Yankees,
little Phil is like a David with a
Goliath. His slingshot arm is
si his little right arm.

Salem High Grid
Team Preps for
Lava Bear Game
Coach Loren Mort's Viking
gridmen eagerly continued their
workouts Tuesday in anticipa
tion of their second Big Six
league contest Friday night at
Waters Park when they face
Bend's Lava Bears.
The Bend team sustained a
13-6 loss to Eugene's Axemen
last Friday and the tough cen
tral Oregonians arc expected to
be on the rebound for the game
in Salem.
The Vikings, rapidly nearing
top form, picked up a victory in
league competition last week
when they tripped Albany, 7-6.
That win is expected to boost
spirits to a fighting edge for
the Lava Bear game.
