To cover this weakness Foil must
have exceptional pitching to win In
the American League this year, and
his problem settles down to his pitch
ing staff. Here is where the III
comes in.
Foil will rely upon Morton. Joe
Wood. Coveleskie and Jim Baghy TO
do the major part Of his pitching this
year IF they hold up, If Wood is
right-and nobody knows now wheth-
err he is or not-lF Morton RECEIVERS
his arm. IF Coveleskie and Bagby can
stand the strain. Foil will have a
wonderful ball club.
As reserves Foil has Joe Boehling
I Coumbe. Klepfer. Smith and Gould
who we're with the club last year
Three youngsters are also trying out
Petty, Dickerson and Landbeth
Lambeth was with the club a short
time last year.
Fohl's other problem is at FIRST
I base. Gusto, who was q sensational
hitter on the coast last year, has the
best chance for the job. but, in my
opinion, Marty Cavanaugh will likely
hold down the sack before the year
is over
Harris. a youngster, also has
chance to draw the initial bag.
] Otherwise the team is the same tha
took the field last year. O'Neill
Daley and Billings will be the catch
ers. Wamby probably will be az sec
ond, Chapman at short, and Terri
Turner at third Roth. Speaker an'
Graney will make up the outheld.
