Diamond Dust
From The Sporting News

No pitcher has ever thrown in
tentionally at Minnie Minoso of
the White Sox. That's the way the
flashy outfielder looks at it. When
he got hit by Bob Grim of the
Yankees a couple of weeks ago,
says The Sporting News, it was the
fiftieth time he had been hit by a
pitch in four seasons Eight times
he was hit in the head. But 1 ra-
ther die than quit playing" says
Minoso. "Is best game in the
world. All the time 1 get hit, those
pitchers don't mean it. Is accident
every time"
The Yankees make mistakes. too,
says The Sporting News. Back in
1947, they invited three Spring.
field, Mo-, boys to tryout camp.
They picked two of them for con-
tracts, but passed up the third.
The two signed didn't last long in
the Yankee chain. The one passed
up - well, he was Box Speake, at
the moment the National Leagues
most spectacular rookie. The Chi
cago Cubs signed Bob later, after
watching him play high school
baseball in Springfield.
Thick -chested Jim Hughes of
the Dodgers is a rally-stopping re-
lief pitcher for them. But to Third
Baseman Ken Boyer of the Card
inals he's just plain Jackpot Jim.
Three times. up against Hughes,
three home runs for Boyer. says
The Sporting News. Boyer first
faced Hughes at Busch Stadium
on May II and hit a ball into the
right field pavilion. Then. on June
S. Boyer faced Big jim in the
ninth inning and slapped the ball
into the upper left field stands.
Coming back in the tenth inning,
Boyer hit another out of the lot.
When Will Nixon, Red Sox
pitcher, goes out after victories, he
picks on two clubs, the Yankees
ana Lne Tigers. III 1893 anu
through June IA of this season,
Nixon had won a total of 16 games.
And 13 of them, says The Sporting
News, we're won against New York
and Detroit. Nixon's record against
the Yankees was six won and one
lost, and against the Tigers. sew
en- won and none lost.
1t isn't the showoff or the play
er who yaps the loudest at an UNI
pire who is the most likely candi-
date for the Hall of Fame, says H.
G. Salsinger in The Sporting News.
On the contrary, the greatest stars
beef the least. Ty Cobb, rated the
most aggressive player of all time,
says Salsinger, argued with an UNI
pire only once in his long career.

Luis Arroyo, Cards
Stopper, Scared
Hurler In Training

Lefthanded pitchers have been
having rough time in the ma
jors this year. Men like SPAIN,
Antonelli, Simmons and Haddix
in the National have been taking
their Jumps. And there's been
trouble for lefthanders like Par
nell, Lopat, Pierce and Stone in
the American. But one Southpaw,
says The Sporting News, has been
defying the jinx. That's Luis Ar
royo, the Puerto Rican who has
been going great guns for the st.
Louis Cardinals. Out of the Cards
first 26 victories, eight had gone
to Arrovo. In that time he had won
eight games and lost only two
heart breakers that he lost by one
run. And he had a remarkable
earned run average of only 191.
While Arroyo now is one of the
standoutS, he came near departing
from the major league scene early
this season. He missed being sent
to the minors by one pitch. AS
The Sporting News tells the story,
Arroyo had not looked good in
spring training, and was kept by
the Cardinals only because they
were desperate for lefthanded
pitching. Then, in -f1fs very first
major league start. and in the very
first inning. Eddie Stanky's pa
tience just about ran out. One
more bad pitch. says The Sporting
News, and Luis would have been
yanked and been sent on his way
to the minors.
This was in Cincinnati, on April
20. Arroyo had given up a single
to the leadoff man. Johnny Tenn
pile. A wild pitch sent Temple to
second. Then he walked Wally
Fost. Gus Bell came up next, and
Arroyo's first three pitches miss
ed the strike zone. Stanky called
a halt and sent. Coach Dixie Walk
er to the mound to talk to Ar
royo.
What Dixie said was this:
you've been pitching scared ball
all spring. There's no use being
nervous out here. You either do or
you don't. That's all there's to it.
Get the ball over, and get them
out"
Arroyo had been in baseball sew
en- years, but he says that's the
most important thing ever said to
him. Il was worried all spring
about falling" he told The Sport
ing News. "All of a sudden, Dixie
make me realize that no use wor-
rying. I do or I don't"
He seemed to change on the
spot. Instead of throwing fourth
ball to Bell, he struck him out.
From there he went on to shut
out the Redlegs, to o, although
he had some late help from Herb
Moford. And he went on to become
the big stopper of the Cardinal
staff. His only losses were to the
Dodgers, 5 to 4, and the Giants, 2
to l.
While Stanky was manager, says
The Sporting News, Arroyo was
used as spot pitcher. After Har-
ry Walker took over managing,
Arroyo took his regular turn.
Arroyo. five feet. eight inches
tall. weighs f80 pounds. He has,
says The Sporting News, a rare
combination for lefthanded
rookie - one of the liveliest fast
balls in the majors and excellent
control. He has averaged only
little over two passes per nine-inn-
ing game.
In Puerto Rico. he's already
national hero. The papers call him
Gel Zudo de Talbalboa." which
simply means Southpaw from Tai
balboa. town near his home. The
way El Zudo has been tipping
along. says The Sporting News.
the headlines on the mainland will
be just as big as those in Puerto
Rico. before long.

The Philadelphia Phillies have
the distinction. of being the last
major league team to be shut out
this season. 1t happened when
Sam Jones of the Cubs beat them,
4 to 0, in their sixtieth game on
June 18. Up to that time, says The
Sporting News. the Orioles had
been whitewashed II times, the
Red Sox and Senators, nine; Pr
ates, eight: White Sox, five: Reds.
Braves and Cardinals, four each;
Cubs, three; Tigers, Yankees,
Giants, and Athletics, twice, and
the Dodgers, once.
The Lincoln times., 1955-07-07

The home run hit by Pitcher
Don Newcombe of the Dodgers
against the Cardinals, June II, was
his fifth of the season. 1t left him
only one short of the National
League home run record by pitch
ers. The Sporting News recalls that
Hal Schumacher of the 1884
Giants and Jim Tobin of the 1942
Braves each hit six. The major
league record for pitchers was sci
by Yves Ferrell, who hit nine hom.
erS with the Indians in 1881.
