Talks Strategy
io Quits, Couldn’t
Play Under False Pretenses
By FRANK ECK
AP Newsfeature Sports Editor
Talking over strategy to use against
his ace guard Jewell McDowell are
surprises to pull on the lads from the
first conference game of the season
Arkansas, Coach
probably thinking
Ozark country. It
for both clubs.
Floyd and
up a few
will be the
New York—You’ve got to give
Joe DiMaggio credit for quitting.
One of baseball’s greatest hit
ters and outfielders just couldn’t
take money under false pretenses.
That’s what he’d be doing if he
played another season.
He would have had to take a 25
percent pay cut, the maximum per
mitted uhder baseball law, had he
stayed around. Joe would have
none of that. He has too much
pride.
If you’ve seen the DiMaggio sal
ary charts you might have noticed
that Joe either got a pay raise or
drew the same salary as the pre
vious year during his 13 seasons
with the Yankees. He never had
to suffer a pay cut.
At 37 he founC it difficult to
get out of bed at 11 o’clock in the
l morning. He felt he couldn’t give
his best, and anything less than
perfection bored DiMaggio to the
core.
“It took me four to five innings
to wake up in the outfield,” he said
just before he left for California.
“It took a trifle longer for me to
come up after fielding a ground
ball in the outfield. But now I feel
wonderful to be back to normal
life.”
As to the Yankees and their cen-
terfield for 1952 we have some
doubt that Mickey Mantle will be
their man. We think the Yankee
officials are whistling past the
graveyard in the Mantle case.
Mickey couldn’t go out today and
play a game of ball and there’s no
assurance that he will be ready
next spring, medical reports to the
contrary. I say you can’t count
on a fellotv who has been wearing a
leg brace for two months.
Oddly enough when Mantle fell
down while chasing a fly ball in
the World Series he was running
hard, but not in the proper direc
tion, as later events proved. Di
Maggio was there to back him up
and made as graceful a catch as
you’d care to see.
That was DiMaggio, the ever so
graceful one chasing a flying ball,
running the bases or hitting a home
run. But last season, Joe was
having reflex trouble. He was get
ting his hands ahead of his bat.
Golfers will tell you this brings
about a slice. In baseball the ball
cannot be pulled properly when the
hands move ahead of the bat.
“There’s no money In right field
hitting for a pull hitter,” baseball
experts tell you. That’s just how
Joe felt last season.
He was afraid of what 1952
might bring. The Yankees were
paying him to hit to left field.
The Yankees and all of baseball
will miss him.
