In the first 10 weeks he clouted for an average well over 400, meanwhile maintaining equally brilliant per- formances in fielding and tactca departments. He throws and bats right-handed. Marty joined the Seals two years ago, becoming a regular after the first month of the 1934 season. He hit 275 the first year and .287 in 1935. In Di Maggio’s Shadow As a teammate of Di Maggio for two years, Marty was in a state of oblivion. The spotlight was focused on the tall, slim Italian youth, now the sensation of the New York Yan- kees, Manager O'Doul predicts a great future for Marty. “He has tremen- dous power in his shoulders, more than Di Maggio,” O'Doul says. “Marty is one of the fastest men in the league. His throwing arm isn’t as good as Di Maffio’s bat he is a better base runner and cov- ers more ground in the field. He siould be a riot in the big show.” Kamm, the one-time master of “hot corner” guardians in the jun ior major circuit, is making managerial debut tk Joe Marty San Francisco Seals, Coast League. big time.
