Diomedes Olivo

And then you've got the guys who did play in the majors and you find out the extensive stories like Vic D'Avelio having over 4,000 hits.

Diomedes Olivo was a pitcher from the Dominican Republic who was a rookie at like 42 or something.

But he was an unbelievable pitcher in the Dominican Republic as well.

I could literally go on for hours like that.

Working in relief of Buell, who started shooting the third, McDaniel in the eighth.

And the loser was Diomedes Olivo.

He has won none and lost three.

Bill White, home run for the Cardinals.

Houston, three, Pittsburgh, nothing.

Don Manabar, five and one on the year, including a no-hitter, is pitching for the Houston Colt 45s and the Deacon Vern Law for the Pirates.

In day games in the National League, in 11, the Cubs beat the Cardinals 7-6, Elston winning in relief, and Diomedes Olivo, the loser, in relief.

Bill White and Stan the Man had home runs for Musial, his sixth of the year, and career-wise, 4-69.

Johnny Keene is coming up the dugout step and making his way toward the mound.

Cardinals have had Diomedes Olivo warming up in the bullpen.

And now a good slider coming around to hit.

Let's see how Johnny Keene, the Cardinal manager, goes.

And Johnny Keene now is signaling to bring in Southpaw Diomedes Olivo.

Olivo lost the game to the New York Mets.

The overtime game in St. Louis, the second game of the doubleheader, on the 26th of May.

Now Snyder is asking Doug Harvey about the pitch being called a strike.

Curt Simmons started.

Ed Baade was next, then Bob Humphreys, then Diomedes Olivo, and then Bobby Shantz.

Humphreys the losing pitcher, losing his first game in the major league.

Now Jay Hook at 3-1, and there's a foul ball out of play.

It's a fast ball charged to Gene Oliver, and the tying runs are now in scoring position.

Now the infield gathering around once again to talk to Diomedes Olivo.

Umpire Doug Harvey going out to try and break the conference up and move the game along.

Olivo threw a fastball that got the inside corner about letter high, but it popped out of the mitt of Gene Oliver.

Tonight, the New York Mets have done the same.

Trailing two to nothing coming into the ninth inning, with one out and nobody on, Frank Thomas, who was up five times on Wednesday, collected three hits and hit the ball hard all five times, got a base hit to center field.

Ron Hunt drew a walk on three and two, and then on two and two against Diomedes Olivo, Duke Snider hit his 10th home run of the year, a line drive off the facing of the upper deck in right field to win the game.

For Duke, his 10th of the year, he now needs only one more to become the ninth man in the history of the game to hit 400 or more home runs.

Two and nothing.

Diomedes Olivo, 42-year-old southpaw, and rookie right-hander Bob Humphries are warming up for St. Louis.

Crowd still very much here and much alive.

Now the pitch on the way, and this is over as Jim held up on it.

Now Snider is asking Doug Harvey about the pitch being called a strike.

It's a fastball charged to Gene Oliver and the tying runs are now in scoring position.

Now the infield gathering around once again to talk to Diomedes Olivo.

Umpire Doug Harvey going out to try and break the conference up and move the game along.

The winner was Don Elston, working in relief of Buell, who started Schultz in the third, McDaniel in the eighth.

And the loser was Diomedes Olivo.

He has won none and lost three.

Bill White, home run for the Cardinals, and Stan Musial, home run in the eighth, and nobody on for the Cards.

Houston, three, Pittsburgh, nothing.

Don Manapart, five and one on the year, including a no-hitter, is pitching for the Houston Colt 45s and the Deacon Vern Law for the parents.

In day games in the National League, at 11, the Cubs beat the Cardinals 7-6, Elston winning in relief and Diomedes Olivo, the loser, in relief.

Bill White and Stan the Man had home runs for Musial, his sixth of the year, and career-wise, 4-69.
