Puerto Rican Fails to Make Columbus Trip

By EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor

New American Association managers Gene Desautels of the Indianapolis Indians and Johnny Keane of the Red tonight in the league opener|

Birds are to match strategy

under the lights at Columbu 12,000 is expected to be on hand. But Desautels will be working under the handicap of a headache even before he sends Lefty Johnny McCall to the mound in the lid-lifter. One of his righthanded pitchers, Jose Santiago, the Puerto Ricdn, failed to make the trip. The dis-

contented hurler, who was being » counted upon as Eddie Ash one of the Tribe's regular starters this season, late yesterday suddenly

thanged his mind about playing with Indianapolis and jumped the| club. “I'm heading back to Puerto Rico and home,” Santiago told Desautels and General Manager Chuck French as he said goodby.

General Manager Chuck French said today Jose Santiago, who jumped the Indianapolis baseball club yesterday, has been suspended indefinitely. Santiago, however, still remains on the eligibility list of the Tribe roster. The suspension is without pay, French

said. tJ n . THE LITTLE fire-ball pitcher boarded a plane for Chicago last night, saying he planned to take in the big fight tonight, Robinson vs. Graziano. Santiago earlier asked French to place him on baseball's voluntary retirement list. The request was turned down. The Puerto Rican replied, “I go home.”

SANTIAGO pulled a similar stunt last spring with San Diego of the Pacific Coast League. He quit and returned to Puerto Rico.. Later, he came back to the states, joined Wilkes-Barre of the Eastern League and posted a marvelous record by winning 21 games against but five defeats. In addition, earned-run record was an eye-opener, a mere 1.59. Santiago was late in report ing to the Indians in Florida, holding out until it looked as though he meant to stay out. He finally checked in, accepted terms and went to work. However, teammates said Santiago was dis tled because the parent Cleveland club failed to give him a tryout this spring despite his fine record . Wilkes-Barre. - » -

ONLY RECENTLY Santiago complatned to Desautels that he had a sore knee. The club physician found no swelling but the Tribe’s manager decided to go along with the pitcher's complaint and promised not to use him until he felt ready to work. General Manager French also made every effort to influence the

The boys went through the paces for more than an hour, their first drill since last Saturday morning in Florida. They were guests last night at the annual father-and-son bascball dinner given by the Ipalco Club. The Tribesters departed for Columbus by sleeper late last might. - » FEARLESS BILL FRIDLEY, outfielder with Cleveland the Indians still hope to land, played lleft field for the parent «lub yesterday. He batted .209 in the Texas League last season and .346 in spring training this year, Eyeing that Texas League average, ‘tis said if Fridley is badly fooled by big-league pitching he'll be farmed out immediately to Indianapolis. He was held hitless against the White Sox yesterday, but so were other Clevelanders. Only four of ’em got hits, but

they won. s s »

HARRY GRAYSON, veteran sports editor of Newspaper Enterprise Association, gave a different twist to his preseason major league predictions. His first-division picks: White Sox to win in the American, followed by Yankees, Cleveland and Tigers. Phillies to win in the National, followed by Giants, Dodgers and Cardinals. . . . THE MOST surprising turn in last-minute predictions on the big league races was the switch to the Phillies as a club that could side track both Dodgers and Giants. The return of Pitcher Curt Simmons from the Army had much to do with it, but Manager Eddie Sawyer’s sizeup of his new infield also was a factor. He said “the infield on our 1950 pennant team wasr't as tight as this one.” #” ” ® 5 Bruce Dudley, American Association president, has put a baseball tradition out of business.: Managers and players can’t call umpires in his league “blind-so-and-sos” any more. After an examination, a Louisville optometrist reported mine of the league's 11 arbiters had perfect vision. Dudley said the eye examination would jeopardize no umpire’s job, but that he, would recommend wearing spectacles to any umpire who needed

them. ” #” ”

THE REPORT on the umpires’ vision is one for the book, unless, of course, the sharpies got together and worked out a way to memorize the eye chart. Managers and players are sure to ask that if the men in blue have perfect vision why don’t they use it? » ns . GENE DESAUTELS, the Indi-

Puerto Rican to stay put. All ap-| peals failed and the Indians and young Santiago parted. It is said the player advised other members of the team he had made up his mind to take oft for home shortly after reporting to the Tribesters. Perhaps he thinks he can’t win in Triple-A. » ” 2 IN COLUMBUS tonight, the Indians are slated to face Ralph Beard, youthful Red.

SAFE AT HOME—Cardina

By CARL LUNDQUIST United Press Sports Writer

NEW YORK, Apr. 186—Don’t worry about the lively ball, it is just as full of zip as ever, only this year it may be doing tricks for the pitchers instead of the hitters. The ball dipped, danced, curved, swoosher, and generally baffled the batters on opening day as the pitchers took over and put on a terrific show. There was a threehit shutout, a six-hit shutout, three other six-hit pitching jobs and a seven-hitter, while home runs and extra base hits were at a minimum,

» B® MEL PARNELL, the lean lefty of the Red Sox, had a particularly lively ball with which he mysti-

three-hit triumph before President ‘Truman in Washington. He beat the Nats for the 16th straight time. His showing was just a shade better than that of Ned Garver of the Browns who pitched a six-hit, 3 to 0 triumph over the Tigers at Detroit. Early Wynn had it all the way over the White Sox in Chicago where he

In the National League, Preacher Roe edged Warren Spahn as the Dodgers topped the Braves, 83 to 2, at Boston on a seven hitter in a fine duel of ‘lefties. The Cubs defeated the Reds, 6 to 5, at Cincinnati in 10 innings, and the Cards defeated the Pirates, 8 to 2, in the season's first night game at St. Louis, o . » THERE MIGHT be significance, too, in the fact that both pre-season pennant favorites, the Indians and Dodgers got off to winning starts while last year's champs, the Yankees and- Giants sat on the sidelines as their games were rained out. But the big show of the day was put on by Parnell. No Wash-

and he never had two runners on base at once. Walt Dropo drove in the two runs he needed for victory with a 400-foot double in the sixth. Ted Williams hit a

Roe held Boston hitless for the last four innings. Gene Hermanski hit a pinchsingle in the 10th to score Randy Jackson with the winning run for the Cubs over the Reds.
