Yankees actually losm{
UnitetJ press International
NEW YOj^j[ — There have been
no loud sc^ nes , no angry words
among the y an kees, but do a little
digging ben^ a th the surface and you
find the dee^, u nspoken anguish.
The worst imaginable calamity
has befallen tjyem. They are losing
hall games, f ou r in a row and seven
out of nine, an d they’re wallowing
in last place j n the American League
East.
Billy Martin feels the anguish
most of all because he’s the man
ager. It’s his n eck if everything goes
to pot, not the ballplayers’. He
knows that.
One of th e big things he learned
from his tdd manager, Casey
Stengel, w^ s how to handle the
team when it’s in a rut like this.
When hi s team was winning,
Stengel was a tyrant. Keep after ’em
he’d urge alf his players. Don’t let
’em up. Wh e n the Yankees were
losing, though, when they couldn’t
do anything right, he was an
entirely diff ere nt person. Suppor
tive, understanding and above all,
patient.
None of this was lost on Bill Mar
tin during all the time he played for
the old man, and now that the Yan
kees are having so much trouble,
he’s using the same soft Stengel
technique, hoping it will help both
him and the ball club.
“You don’t push when you’re los
ing,” he said before yesterday’s
game with Toronto’s expansion-
horn Blue Jays. “The most impor
tant thing for a manager to have in a
case like this is patience.”
Sometimes, that comes hard. Be
fore the game, Martin was given
another piece of bad news. Catfish
Hunter, his ace pitcher, had to be
placed on the 21-day disabled list
because of a bruise he incurred on
his instep on opening day.
“Nothing is ‘unsettled 4
what the press says, Mai
sisted. “Now they’ve got me
Steinhrenner and theyvej
against Reggie. But it s nottn
It had been reported that]*

Friday night after he told wife
elbow bothered him, and then
tin didn’t play him.
“They, the press, forget to
that wherever I manage, I
play a guy who’s hurt, said Mi
Jackson informed Martii
elbow still was giving him In
yesterday, so he was used as tk
sigated hitter.
Martin had other troubles as well.
The New York press, he said, was
trying to stir up trouble between
him and Reggie Jackson and be
tween him and team owner George
Steinhrenner. Stories had been
written that he and Jackson and he
and Steinhrenner had some ‘unset
tled’’ differences.
Someone wanted to
whether the Yankees arehavinj
kind of “ego problem, and 11
shook his head no.
