Alvin Dark said.
The Giants gave Cleveland
an undisclosed amount of
cash and a minor league play
er to be named later for Nie
man. who is ir his 12th ma
jor league season. He has a
lifetime batting average of

Whether or not Liston is re
habilitated remains to be seen.
But it's a miracle of less than
a year's standing, if so, and
less than that if you believe
reports of his occasional pub
lic language.
"There's no reason to think
that Liston might not get a
license." promoter Tom Bo

about to apply.
