A recent Associated Press

Manager Lou Boudreau did not

in a starting role. While it is
true I was hired cn July 7 as
a relief pitcher, I knew ail the

and proved it as my record
shows.”
In the interv cw, the 6 foot
3 inch man with the thinnest
legs in baseball spoke also oi
requests he intended to make
to Bill Veeck, Cleveland prexy,
one of baseball’s finest execu¬
tives- Said Satch: “Next sea¬

Despite the football thunder

Here is a Larry Doby story
weaved by Bob Considine, writ¬

that poses some of the rugged

whites working together on the

An idea born in the mind of

and Larry Doby, who made the
monopoly of baseball compre-
hend that class—can know no
color. Robinson made it the
hard way- They underwent
tribulations which have never
reached print and probably
never will adequately, unless
the boys get aroud to writing
their memoirs. But their hard¬
ships, stoic absorption of the
cruelty spent on them by a few
dumb white ballplayers, and the
way they have come through
will make t’he path so much
easier for those who will fol¬

Invaders—Not A Colleague
** If there w.w were ----- an official -----
scorer of this quietly dramatic
adventure of colored men find-
ing employment in a trade
which arrogantly denied them
that right, he would credit
Hank Greenberg and Joe Gor¬
don with assists.
“Jackie Robinson, then the
first to break thru the hostile
curtain of big league ball, was
ignored or openly condemned
by a great percentage of his
Brooklyn teammates. He was
an invader in the minds of
those men, not a colleague.
Hairs would bristle on every
slide he made as Robinson, the
outstanding base-runner, found
himself colliding with other
players. Then one day Hank
Greenberg, then with the Pi¬
rates, crashed into Robby at
first. The impact of the blow,
which was accidental, knocked

dirt. I
Quick to Apologize
“Hank walked over to Robin-
son, helped him up, looked at
h m and anxiously asked, ‘Are
you hurt?’ Robinson glanced j
at him and smiled. He was
over the hump- Somebody had
said something kind, he knew
it would be easier after that,
and it was. H.s playing picked
up and he did much to aid the
pennant the Dodgers won.
Pitcher Beat Doby Up (!)
“Larry Doby joined the In¬
dians early in July, 1947. On
the following day a Cleveland
pitcher, no longer with the
team, picked a fight with the
quiet your\g man and slugged
him pretty badly- Three or
four other Cleveland players
openly blasted him fn the lock-
er-room. The others, by and
large, ignored him.
