 The first thing Manager SeWoll notlced was that Guticridge. sidearm thrower, threw better from the right side of the infield.
 Grasping the possibilities. Sew ell let Gutteritlge know that he could help the club by playing second base. He told him to take his time and work out his own problems.
 MlSCAST FOR % YEARS
 Gutteridge has been on second base ever since and is the life of the pennant-bound St. Louis American League party.
 Quick to get the jump On a bah and of blazing speed. Gutterldge makes seemingly impossible stand up-and-cheer plays.

 He figures that he was niscast for the 70 years he spent in the Cardinal organization four at third base and shortstop for the parent club. Branch Hickey didn't think he could play second base.
 And the Cardinals were looking for a second baseman lal the time.
