Eddie Stanky

Swung on and fouled off.

Well, Phil, we were premature in saying that Eddie Stanky would manage The Texas Rangers.

We had it one day ahead of time.

Of course, he did manage them.

They were way behind.

They beat Minnesota.

And yet Eddie Stanky, who just the day before said he loves baseball so much, he's still interested in it.

But he is a homebody, as you were telling me, which was kind of surprising

Bill Cherry, Bobby Thompson, Iris Musil, Sal Magli, Lefty O'Doul, Carl Hubble.

Among the Dodgers, Roy Campanella, Mickey Oren, Otto Miller, Jackie Robinson, Eddie Stanky, Dolph Camilli, Jack Wheat, Van Lingo Mungo, Max Carey, who next Monday will be inducted into the Hall of Fame at Cooperstown.

Teewee Reeves, Kirby Higby, Ralph Branca, Dixie Walker, Billy Koch, Joe Black, the umpire in chief, Al Shack, other umpires, Cal Hubbard, head of the American League, umpires and supervisors, Larry Goetz, former National League umpire, and Billy Greve, former American League umpire.

There will be Mrs. John McGraw, Mrs. Babe Ruth, Mrs. Lou Gehrig, Commissioner Ford Frick, Assistant Charlie Seeger.

Wes Westrum on the coaching lines at first, Don Heffner on the lines at third.

Eddie Stanky, the Mets dir- director of player personnel, is in the area, and Yogi is spending time with him on a special scouting assignment, so Yogi will not be on the lines in the game tonight, and Wes Westrum will be coaching at first base.

Ray Washburn, the St. Louis Cardinal hurler in tonight's game.

Washburn has been very impressive of late.

WCJU, one of the fine stations on the Chicago White Sox network line, WCJU.

And now here's the starting lineup for Eddie Stanky's nine.

Eddie is, uh, down to the left at the present time with Dick Williams, and the action will be getting underway momentarily.

Leading off and playing left field will be Walt Williams, and we'll have the opportunity and time to give you the batting average of each player as we give you the starting lineup.

[cheering] Doing the catching, Elston Howard.

And on the mound, Jim Lonborg with 18 victories and six losses.

The umpiring crew has made their way out of the Red Sox dugout and out to home plate, where Dick Williams and Eddie Stanky will exchange their lineup cards.

And we want to welcome aboard all the people of the armed forces, as this broadcast is being heard on the Armed Forces Network.

You talk about getting the most out of what you've got to give, this man epitomizes it, in the way that Eddie Stanky once did.
