of modern players and the "alibi
trend" in baseball.
He concluded that:
1. Spitballs are a myth con
cocted by players who are more
crybabies than athletes while
beanball charges are trumped up
90 per cent of the time.
2. Managers are victims of
their own nerves because they
are frightened men with a job
span of only three or four sea
sons. 3. Ninety per cent of ejections
are for profanity on the personal
insult side "which usually is on
ly a four-letter attempt to cover
up the player's own failure."
4. Pitchers today have no
chance" against the lively ball,
light bats, short fences and
tiny strike zone.
SINCERE KICKERS"
"For 20 years 1 did my best to
enlarge the strike zone," Pinelli
writes in True magazine later.
this week, making an admission
which will start the hitters
screaming all over again. "And I
called pilches strikes if the slight
est part of the ball shaded the
target area."
There are in the major leagues
what Babe describes as. "sincere
kickers." Among these he lists
such as Ted Kluszewski, Wally
Post, Harvey Kuenn, Jackie Jen

Ernie Banks, Hank Aaron, Carl

Eddie Slanky "Worst kicker

Willie Jones "Among the

NO AUTOMATIC THUMB
Pinelli is proud of being de
scribed as the man who "made a
tame cat out of Leo the Lion
He alleges that once Durocher
called him a "two-bit guinea" and
invited him under the stands.
Pinelli claims that when he fol
lowed Leo to the dugout as if ac
cepting "Durocher began to show
alarm" and Babe told him:
"Me fight you?" Pinelli relates.
"Why, you fresh punk, you couldn't
punch your way out of a pa
per bag. You never won a fight
in your life."
From that day on, Pinelli says,
Durocher never again gave him
any sass. But Babe may hear a
lot of lip from Leo and the oth
ers after this blast in view of the
fact thai he no longer owns the au
tomatic thumb.

Hilliard, whose selection to the
North squad of the league All-
Stars was announced just Sunday
morning, revealed a couple of the
reasons he was selected when he
stepped to the plate in the sixth
inning and powered one over the
left field wall with one man on

to repeat the performance, this
time with the sacks loaded.

ers in the league, limping from
an. ankle injury, blasted his four

and then retired from the ball-game.
Earning credit for the victory
was Weed starting hurler Dave
Lemos who allowed the Kubs six of
their nine hits, struck out seven
and walked six before leaving the
game in the sixth in favor of Norm
Swan who did the mopping up.
The loss was charged to Kub
starter Ed Vegley, the first of
four Kub chuckers to get work
Vcglcy stepped down in the third
frame after issuing seven Weed
knocks. His relief, Wayne Hirona
ka, before turning the mound over
to big Bob Janes in the sixth,
gave up Milliard's first homer and
also felt Fruzza's wrath.
After loading the bases with a
pair of walks and a single, Janes
was lifted to be replaced by ver
satile Mike Dolan. Dolan was
greeted by Hilliard's grand slam
mer.

for the Kubs, and catcher Bob
