BEHIND
HOME PLATE
BY DOUG STEWART

Steve Sloboda, who has blown
hot and cold ever since being re-
turned to the Owls at the close of
Toronto's spring training here, has
quit the team for the second time.
But this time, unless the Hagers-
town Ball Clubs management can
use him in a trade, he should (if it
hasn't already happened) be placed
on the ineligible list. Ball players
like Sloboda don't help any team.
Mr.. Sterling gave him his chance
to make the grade with Toronto,
but instead of being grateful for
the chance and pitching in and
helping his team, he just walks out.
Well this time / hope he is made
to stay out of organized ball until
he is ready to get down to business.
The Owls started their current
road trip in fine style by taking
two out of three from York over
the week end. Obviously strength
ened by catcher Petro, outfielder
Scally (no relation to outfielder
Scalli) and infelders Velasquez and
Daniels, and with the pitching staff
no longer forced to play the out
field, and gradually rounding into
shape (Maloney pitched the first
three innings of Sundays first game
in York, allowing no runs and Civ
ing up two hits and two walks), |
am looking for Dutch Dormans
boys to go places from here on out.
No game was scheduled Monday,
Tuesdays game with Allentown was
rained out and this column had to
be written before last nights game.
With the bad weather causing so
many postponments, not only in the
Interstate, but in all the leagues,
there will be a flock of doublehead-
ers later in the season. That is a
break for the fans, but a headache
for the managers, particularly for
those who are short on starting
pitchers.
