Built-ln-Sneer Adds
To Drysdale Terror
PITTSBURGH (NEA1 Don
Drysdale is six feet six inches and
f M pounds of righthand pitcher.
The way he throws this Dodger
u should never be beaten.
Drysdale is a good-looking horn
bre from Van Nuys. Calif., whose
; appearance could be that of the
a general opinion of an amateur ten.
nis bum, if there is such a portrait.
. The Drysdale looks are marred
only by something of a built-in
.-'i aneer. This indicates a meanness
that a lot ot people desire in pitch-
i ers, providing they are on the
.; tame club.
'i Drysdale confesses that he nev-
! er would be elected chaplain of
t the National Society for the Pre-
t ventton of Cruelty to Batters. He
f hates 'em. They hate him, in a
proiessionai manner.
J Drysdale wouldn't think of send
ing a batter sprawling with a fast
ball, thrown from the general di
rection of the shortstop's position,
unless he was making an attempt
to hit against him. There are eas
ier ways of making a living
than facing his leverage and ve
locity at 60 feet, six inches. Se
curity, among other things, is lacking.
Drysdale will be 23 years old
en the 23rd of this month. This
made him the youngest pitcher
in the first All-Star Game of this
erason by six years. He also was
the best in the 26th annual and
what are they going to call the
benefit in Los Angeles on Aug. 3?
Maybe the 2fi'i annual.
Drysdale has to pitch his home
games in th. Los Angeles Coliseum
with that 250 oot left field. He got
a look at It last year and almost
never recovered. This year he al
ready has more complete games
and strikeouts than he recorded in
1958.
"I don't pilch to ball parks any
more, he told us in the club
house. "Last year I tried to ad
just my pitching to the Coliseum
and failed. Now it's just another
park to me. 1 can look at hitters
and usually tell whether they'll be
hitting or taking the first pitch
When they're hitting I pitch them
tight, and they hit the ball with
the handle."
Almost everybody says Drysdale
is another Kwell Blackwell. He an-
gles the ball' into the hitler with
the terrible speed possessed by
the old whip of the Reds.
"But Drysdale has more rhythm,
more polish than Blackwell," Ed
die Sawyer, manager of the Phil
lies, contributed the last time he
had a look at the big kid who
stirs Los Angeles' pennant hopes
"Blackwell's arm used to look like
a snake, the way he snapped it
Don Drysdale pitches with
natural movement, and as Eddie
Sawyer stressed, it's nice to have
that kind on your side.
Oregon's Top Stars
Return After Meet
By BEN OLA.1
One of the hardest dec!-
iuni for baseball managers
to make it one involving a
change of pitcher. Pennant
have been won and lost with
the correct strategy in these
situations.

tutting pilcher was relieved. Yon

out io the last of the seventh inning.
The Senators are leading 54. The
count on Maxwell goea to two balls
and one strike. At this point, Wash.

PORTLAND AP) Three of
Oregon's top track stars returned
here Monday from Philadelphia
where they competed on the U.S.
team against a Russian group. A
fourth Oregonian went on to Eugene.
Jim Grelle. Sharon Shepherd
and Dave Edslrom landed Mon
day at Portland International Air
port. Dyrol Burleson, a University
of Oregon sophomore-to-be, went
worked to his disadvantage. "The
difference is not great enough. 1
think it has just worked out that
way so far."
Dave Edslrom, the decathlon
runner-up. said he was inclined to
agree with the Russian coach who
said the hot, sticky weather held
back first-place Vasily' Kuznetsov;
with 8.350 points.
Edslrom, who scored 7.590
points, said he felt he would bet-

blast from Willie Maya could

Mays is batting around .300,

been sadly missing when needed

Bill Rigncy is hoping for one
of the protracted .400-to-.500 bat

while the Giants were tenants at
the Polo Grounds. This might en

PHILADELPHIA (NBA) Again tened up on the Dodgers in 11158
the Giants are the most exciting but have had nothing more than
an even break with Los Angeles
this season.
The Giants are vastly better off
at this stage than they were a
year ago, after which their thin
pitching collapsed in August from
overwork. The starting pitchers
are sounder. The phenomenal re
cruits of last term have a year
of National League experience un
der their belts. Daryl Spencer
has turned out to be a more effi
cient second baseman than a
shortstop, where Eddie Bressoud
moved in to give the club a slick
double play combination.
In the pitching department, Sam
Jones and Jack Sanford are a
tremendous Improvement over
temperamental Ruben Gomez and
Ramon Monzant, but the Giants
still lack a competent relief work
er. After Johnny Antonelli, Sam
Jones, Sanford, Mike McCormlck
and Stu Miller, Rigney doesn't
know quite where to reach. Al
Worthington, Gordon Jones and
Billy Muffett have been of little
assistance. The hope here is that
Eddie Fisher, called up from
Phoenix with limited profession
al experience, might help with a
knuckle ball.
Meanwhile, starters are reliev
ing and that could be bad in the
long haul.
It took Rigney until July 3 to
convince Owner Horace Stonehsm
that Andre Rodgers, the six-foot-three
former cricket player, would
never be a shortstop, or anything
else in a major league, for that
matter. The Giants made 17 er
rors in their first half dozen
games, and the miscast Rodgers'
lack of range, bad hands and
throwing were still hobbling the
club when the accomplished Bres
soud took over for the fourth and
perhaps the last time.
Rigney further cemented the
Giants' defense by installing Jack
ie Brandt In left field against both
kinds of pitching, eliminating the
risk of Leon Wagner emulating
Smead Jolley.
A lot of learned baseball men
consider the Giants the most for

League. They have the starting
