your baseball strategy. National
League managers frequently have
been upset when they used that
strategy in games with the Card.
inaIs. remember particularly in
stances when / used to be pretty
fair hitler, where I was walked by
left handed pitchers to bring UP
Jim Botton1ley, left handed hit
ter. In one series last year be-
tween the Cardinals and Cubs
was walked twice. Bottomley hit
a triple on one occasion and an
other time he hit a home run
with the bases filled.
The same situation arose in a
game at st. Louis during the late
stages of this race. 7 was walked
in the ninth inning to bring up
Bottomley and Jim singled to
right, winning the ball game.
The best way to look at a ball
game is that it doesn't matter who
pitches or who is hitting. Just
get out and hustle all the time,
have your cuts at the ball and
you'll get your share Of base hits.
You do or you don't in baseball,
just as in everything else. Per-
sons who happen to have a little
success in any game should never
let it go to their heads. You do
or you don't. You may be a world
beaten today and tomorrow you
may be just an ordinary ball play
er. But If you get out there and
hustle, you'll get your share of
success. That's what the Cardinals
have done. They started hustiing
at the training camp and they
have hustled all year. We have
played our bad games, but we
have come back strong and made
up for the bad ones. That's what
were going to do in the world
series. Wen just go out there md
treat the games like any other
games and the Yankees like any
other opponents. Well hustle and
do our best. The Yankees must
be good bali club to have won
the pennant in the American
League and we won't under esti.
mate them. But, of course, we
expect to win.
