Third Base Is
Indian Puzzle

WnOS on tnlfd mat was
still the toughest question of all
for the Tribe manager Lou Boud-
reau as the Indians went into the
final stages of their 1850 exhibi-
tion schedule. There just wasn't
any one candidate who seemed to
stand out above the others.
Yet, periodoxically, there was
no paucity of material as there
were by far more past, present
and future third basemen on the
Cleveland roster than any other
speciality. Numerically, the total
stood at eleven athletes who have
seen service at the hot corner
And most of them have had far
more than a casual introduction to
the post.
Ken Keltner, of course, was
top man but his leg muscles
acted up in 1949 and might handi
cap him again this summer.
Should such a misfortune over
take the durable veteran, first
chance at the job was up for
grabs between rockies AL Rosen
and Leo Thomas, the young Port
land draftee. Both got a thor
ough trial on the exhibition tour,
but neither was able to take an
appreciable edge. Thomas prob
ably earned the nod on defense
while Rosen, who's never hit less
than 300 in the minors, packed
little better wallop.
But while Boudreau watched
these rockies do battle with the
incumbent Keltner, he was also
mindful of the half dozen other
possibilities within easy reach. He
could summon rife-armed Bob
Kennedy from his outfeld bri-
gade, for the husky Irishman had
done a fancy turn at third in
1949 not to mention some six full
seasons with the Chicago White
Sox. Or he could fill the bill
himself on the basis of his
splendid showing there last sum-
mer.
But those possibilities by no
means exhaust the avenues of
choice available before suit
ing up the batboy. His ace
utility man, Johnny Berardino,
can do an excellent job anywhere
and third base is no exception.
Much the same can be said for
Roberto Avila, the young Mex
lean batting champ, who has the
arm and rehexes to man any in
field post.
And that's not all, just in case
you're getting confused. Don't
forget that Allie Clark, a pretty
fair country masher, specialized
at third basing in his pre-lndian
days at Newark before switching
to the outfield. Another convert
ed hot corner candidate, Orestes
Minoso, has just returned to the
infield at San Diego and the fact
that he's there on "24 hour re-
call" seems to include him in the
future book picture.
BY way of running the club
membership up numerically, it's
worth recalling that pitchers Bob
Lemon and Steve Gromek both
gave up that position when they
discovered an affinity for the
mound. OF course, neither one is
in danger of making another move
now, but their history seems to
indicate that the Tribe farm sys-
tenn has ground out its share of
third basemen down through the
years.
If you are completely swamped
by possibilities at this point, just
grab a seat close to the man
ager. He'd undoubtedly welcome
any suggestions you have to offer
before reusming his dreams about
a composite of all eleven.
