Wilson said "And you don't make any dough Why there are Sfty 1 pitchers making twice as much as , you are. Ru< ky and they're not very good plti hero. either." Walters said no. Wilson argues They were on their third helping of chicken before Walters reluctantly agreed to turn pitcher, but only on the londltion that if he failed be would get another shot at third base Most of you know the trials and tribulations of Walters as a pitcher Ills first start was against the Reds and Larry MaiPhall who was running the Cincinnati* at that time, came down from the stands to demand of Wilson that he remove Walters before he killed a batch of Cincinnati players Through the season opposing players ribbed Walters unmercifully and the fans jeered and booed But he kept at It. Worked a* few pitchers have. Three ordinary seasons with the Phillies as a pitcher In the middle of the IMI treason he was traded to the Reds and waa | ready to take hla place as a great pitcher He won 27 games last year and 22 this year. Today Rucky will have as his catcher the man who started him off on the road to success. The aging Wilson who. until a few weeks ago thought he waa through as a competitor. But the death of Willard Hershberger and the Injury of Brale Iximtartii drove him tack Into hl* pads and shin guards Over forty years of age aot In too good condition. Wilson will catch Walters In the make-or-break game of the series for the Reda It's a situation right oat of Hollywood. and It will ta a callous cues saaroswMiH*' sw- ,mmsne o wumnMMWaaee*- sew wMarossewsse.
