Mike is no spring chicken. He game |says he is 35 but looks a bit older. He’s black-haired, dark and rugged. when he was managing Springfield, Mo., for the Cardin- als, Mike was also business mana- ger, responsible for handling of baggage, bus driver, general util- ity playver and occasional pitcher. He was charged with' training young Cardinal pitchers. He'd do his duty by the Cards until Springfield dropped too many games, then he'd have to do his duty by Springfield fans and go in and pitch some wins. Two of the youngsters Ryba is battling for jobs on the Red Sox staff now are kids who pitched under him when he was Spring- field manager — Oscar Judd and Dick Newsome. And Ryba's debut into pro ball was at Johnstown,: Pa,, the year Joe Cronin was play- ing his first season there. Auspicious Debut’ Dominic Ryba, called Mike and pronounced Ree-ba, made an aus- picious debut with the Cardinals; back in 1928. He beaned the star pitcher, Grover Cleveland Alex- ander, and gave him a black eye. But he stayed on.
