Remembers
1964 Season
By GENE MAUCH
Philadelphia Phillies Manager
The first 150 days of the 1964
season gave me my biggest thrill.
I never had so much fun in my life.
Whatever we had to do we did. It
was a wonderful 150 days.
If Richie Allen had to make a
diving stop to save a ball game,
he made the diving stop. If John
ny Callison had to hit a home run
with two men on to tie the game
and then hit another in the 12th
inning to win, that was just what
he did.
If Cookie Rojas had to play sev
en different positions and do ev
erything right, he did just that.
During the same period he got 15
hits in 27 times at bat. If we
needed a double, Cookie got a dou
ble. If we needed a triple, he
tripled. If we needed a home run
off a pitcher like Bob Gibson, he
hit a home run off Gibson.
If we had to win a game Jim
Bunning or Chris Short won it.
If John Hermstein had to hit a
double with the bases loaded off
Elroy Face, he hit the double.
I got a tremendous kick out of
watching Eddie Roebuck rebound
with us after we got him from
Washingrton. And seeing Frank
Thomas sting the ball for us after
we got him from the Mets. I got
a thrill from Clay Dalrymple’s
catching.
Yes, I got my biggest thrill from
the first 150 games. And let’s
leave it right there.
(EDITOR’S NOTE: The Phil
lies lost 10 straight then won their
last two to eliminate Cincinnati
from the National League pen
nant).
NEXT: Manager Birdie Teb-
betts of the Cleveland Indians.
