PETERSEN, United Press Sports Editor 3 PHILADELPHIA, Qct,, 3 Veteran Jim Konstanty, noted as a relief pitcher, was nominated today by Manager Eddie Sawyer to start tomorrow's opening game of the, World Series for the Philadelphia .Phillies against the New York Yankees, Konstanty, who won 16 and lost seven this year, will oppose Righthander Vic. Raschi, start a game during the entire 1950 season. The announcement of Konstanty came as a complete surprise to most fans, who anticipated that’eithér Robin Roberts or Veteran Ken Heintzelman weyld-get thesopening day assignment. The bespeetacled Konstanty set a mew modern relief record this year when he was called on in games. This. shattered. the 70-game mark set in 1948 by Ace Adams of the New York Giants. Big Jim's selection by Sawyer came as an astounding surprise, but the manager, unavailable iphmediately because he was hokding a club meeting, apparently figured that Konstanty's “goft stuff” would go well against the hard-hitting Yankees. Sawyer had been expected to. start with the 33-year-old Heintzelman. Such a selection would be thes most unusual since another

That Sawyer would go with a man who on the record was so’ undependable as Heintzeiman, made good sense, For the prematurely gray southpaw ‘from the * Mo, has. just the type of pitching repertoire that has given the Yankee batters capital letter trouble the entire year.

HE THROWS soft curves, a rinky-dink slider, and a fast ball that doesn’t even make a loud thwack in Catcher Andy Seminick’s mitt, But he has good control, he is a steady veteran, and the swing-from-the-toes Yankee batters just haven't been able to get their timing right against guys of his stripe. ’ Even the cagey Stengel said he fully expected Sawyer to use Heintzelman “in either the first or second games.” “Those kind of guys have ruined. -us,” he said. “Take that Lefty Stubby Overmire of the St, Louis Browns. He beat us three times and then one day we got real lucky and beat him 1 to 0.” oltin’ Joe DiMaggio, whose bat caught
