over Mickey Owens catching
duties, and worked splendidly
behind the place for a while,

young maskman proved a
steady receiver and great

the inexperienced pitchers on

and practically everyone on the
Brooklyn roster played third

manager have worked wonders
in this first postwar baseball
season. Not even considered a
Dossible threat to st. Louis
star packed powerhouse in
ApriI predictions, Brooklyn took
the National League leadership
early in the flag race, and held
if until August. The Buns did
this without notable standouts
hut with supposedly wornout
"has-beens" like Dixie Walker,
Eddie Stanky, and Pete Dead
Arm" Reiser plus dozens of
raw recruits.
The amazing facts of the
situation are that these washed
up ball players, who were
scheduled t. be sold down the
river or cast off in some other
way, flourished. Walker slug
ged as Walker had never slug
ged before. Stanky batted over
800, and received innumerable
bases on balls. Reiser hit over
.29G. smacked more homeruns
than any other man on the
club, and swiped everything In
