= = THAT WINNING MOUND FORMULA IT ELUDED WYATT FOR YEARS

\ THITLOW WYATT of the Brooklyn Dodgers didn't discover the formula for winning in the big time until he had .been knocking around the majors and minors for 10 years. . .. He learned the trick with Milwaukee last season, and Brooklyn Scout Ted McGrew of Indianapolis recommended the veteran and a deal was closed. Wyatt, leading National League hurler with eight victories and no defeats, spent almost seven seasons in the American League with Detroit, Chicago and Cleveland, vet never reached the status of a first-string fllinger. He came to the Tigers in 1930 after two good seasons with Evansville, . ,. He remained with Detroit until midseason in 1933 when he was traded to Chicago. . . . The White Sox sent him to Kansas City in 1936 but he was back with Cleveland the following year. Last vear with Milwaukee he pitched so hrillianily that his manager, the late Al Sothoron, former major league pitcher, tabbed him the greatest minor league hurler of all time.

Pitched Nine Shutouts In "38

OTHORON worked hard with Wyatt, helping him improve his curve and his delivery. . . . The right-hander won 23 games and turned in an earned run mark of 237. , , , He attributes much of his success to the strict schedule Sothoron gave him. . , . Wyatt would pitch every fourth day, even though rain washed out intervening contests. . . He pitched nine shutouts for the Brewers. . . . He started in 32 games, pitched 26 complete games and had seven defeats. . . . The mainstay rolled up 208 strikeouts In 254 innings and issued 62

walks, RA HAYWORTH. caicher, who was a teammate of Wyait's in Detroit and now with the Dodgers. is often the right-hander's battery maie. . .. Ray is in an excellent position to judge the difference between ihe old and the new Wvatt, “Whitlow is not quite as fast as he was with the Tigers.” said Havworth, "but he has a better curve hall and has a better motion in throwing it He had a fast curve hefore. but now he knows how to slow up on his bender. In other words he knows how to pitch.” 5 ” » » n N
