Manager Lou Boudreau Plans
To Use Two Red Sox Platoons
Creator Gs-Williams Shift
Seeks Wins Ob Road Tripp
By LEO H. PETERSEN
(UP Sports Editor)
SARASOTA, Fla. Wl There were
indications today that Lou Bou
dreau, who likes to experiment, may
introduce a revoutionary two-pla
toon system to major league base
ball this season.
* It all depends on how five of
his outstanding rookies fare. If thex
can make the grade the Boston
Red Sox will have a home club
and a road club.
Boudreau said he “is going to
have to sacrifice potver for speed
when we are away from home be
cause we never have been able to
win with powef on the "road.”
So. If the rookies make the grade,
Boudreau will play power batters
at home In the hitting paradise
known as Fenway Park .
On the road, hell take out some
of the long ball hitters and sub
stitute players who are less dan
gerous at bat, but who can run and 1
field.
WIN AT HOME
“The records show,” Boudreau
said, “that we can win with power
when we are at home. But to win
the pennant you also have to win
on the road. We haven’t been do
ing that so after taking a look at
the youngsters I decided the solu
tion would be to substitute speed
for power away from home. I am
hopeful that might do the trick.”
The experiment depends on
whether • Faye Thomeberry. Dick
Gernert, Ted Lepcio, Jim Pearsall
and Gene Stephens can make the
grade.
“They have already shown me

•Fmka’s resignation, submitted
in order for him to accept a non

But Wolf, will take over super

Penn 'Btate will meet Kentucky's
fabulous Wildcats in the opener at

All five are promising, although
several probably will need more
minor league seasoning.' Stephens,
who is only 19 has played profes
sional ball only one season, hit
337 with the High Point-Thomas
vaille, N. C„ club’ last season.
“He has the power of Ted Wil
liams at the plate." Boudreau said,
“but he may- need a little mors
polishing up.”
Piersall hit .346 at Birmingham
and Boudreau believes he can make
the switch to shortstoD.
“He’s death on ground balls and
has a great arm,” Boudreau ex- ,
plained. If anv of those kids make
the grade, Boudreau would use j
them away from home because of ,
the speed they add to the dub. But
at Fenway, his power hitters would .

Nardico Gets Win
Over Dick Wagner
CLEVELAND, O. fU>» Hard
hitting Danny Nardico, gleeful at
his “pier six” victory over rugged
Dick Wagner, called today for re
turn bouts against the two fellows
who made him angry-Harry “Kid”
Matthews and Robert Villemain.
“Bring them on,” demanded the
Tampa, Fla., # light-heavy slugger.
“I’d like return matches with both
those guys, and I think T could
beat them now.”
It was losing close decisions re
cently to Seattle’s Matthews and
France’s Villemain that made dan
gerous Danny boiling mad for last
night’s 10-round scrap at the Arena
against the veteran -Wagner.
REVENGE IN MIND
Danny took out his hurt against
Wagner, dropping him twice to the
canvas and gaining the unanimous
decision.
A real slam-bang affair from the
opening bell, the bout saw both
men staggered, and Wagner waSj
nearly kayoed twice: in the fourthl
when a right to the head sent him -
down for nine, and in the seventh, j
when a stunning, short left to the'
Jaw sent him reeling into the ropes !
and down for.,another nine count;
/But each time Nardico swung
wildly trying to “firrMfi him of ft”
In fact, both men missed a car
load of haymakers throughout tfie '
yesterday. They include Phil Fast i

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. —OPL-
Manager Eddie Stanky, who needs
a pitcher to replace Harry “The
Cat” Brecheen, sends his St. Louis
Cardinals against the world cham
pion New York Yankees today in
an exhibition game.
The 37-year-old Brecheen, last
pitcher to win three games in a!
World Series, has a chipped bone l
in his left elbow and probably will.
require an operation if he is to do
any pitching this, season.
Even with the operation, his
chances of ever pitching in the
majors again are regarded as no
better than 50-50.
The chip in Brecheenls throwing
arm was revealed yesterday by X-
I rays.
