Sid Hudson's split-second mental
maneuvering, plus Ted Williams
tremendous home run and JEFF
Heath's homer of less prodigous pro-
portions. still were topics of chatter
today as fans reviewed Washing
tons 6-3 defeat by Boston yesterday
at Griffith Stadium before President
Truman, who opened the first peace
time baseball season in five years.
The Presidents accurate toss
which ricocheted off the hands OF
several players before being snatched
by Andy Gilbert, Boston utility out
fielder, qualified Mr.. Truman as a
southpaw with control and possibly
the best presidential pitcher in base
ball history. but Hudson displayed
remarkable poise in tough situa
ton to outsparkle the Chief Execu-
tive.
George Metkovich greeted Hudson
with a single to right in the eighth
but when Ernie Andres popped in
front Of Hudson, Sid calmly per-
mitted the ball to drop at his toes
then whipped the ball to Mickey
Vernon at first. Mickey tagged Met
kovich, who had remained at first
base, then stepped on the bag to
catch Andres for double play.
Veron Smart Collaboration.
Vernon collaborated in quick
thinking with Hudson, for had he
first stepped on the bag Metkovich
would have been entitled to first
base. BY first touching first base,
Mickey would have erased a force
play on Metkovich, who was stand
ing on the bag and who would have
been safe If Vernon hadn't played
1t cleverly.
Williams mighty drive, which
landed in the tenth row of the
center field bleachers, was one OF
the longest socks ever delivered at
Griffith Stadium. His 430-foot poke
made all other extra base blows re-
semble bunts, but the 30,372 fans
nevertheless were apppreciative OF
Heath's soring blast over the right
