7 ‘ARME __ THE MYSTERY OF THE MISSING PITCHER, OR THE _PHONEY PROMISE ESIDES the mystery of the missing pitcher that Cin- cinnati owes Seattle in the Herb Brenton deal that Sent Seattle’s star flinger to the Reds a couple of. weeks with the promise attached that we would receive a lass hurler to replace him, linger a couple of other { Promises made the Seattle fans at the time the deal was made. Those promises were that Manuel Cueto, the Cuban star, who refused to report at the start of the season, would! to Seattle immediately and that another .300 hitter cosh be lined up right away. le has enough .800 hitters now. And we can fgle along without Cueto. These promises were evi- bits of baseball gossip. But we do need another pitcher to replace Brenton. IRE DOES ATTLE FIGURE? eee | Perhaps Cincinnati isn’t able to waive pitchers out of the i league who would help Seattle. But what good under a fe sun does that do Seattle? + The Seattle squad, still fighting for the pennant, should been tected. It was breaking faith with the fans for the club owners to Jet Brenton go until a r to: replace him was on the ground. i land had a chance to send Hack Miller to the Chicago but the Cubs couldn’t deliver the players that Mana- jer. Howard wanted and the deal fell thru. And Oakland the pennant race just like the sultan of Turkey: casts in the United States senate. -THEN—BLOOIE! | Seattle baseball officials did go out and get some ball players after the season started. And they did coin then. But after getting a good team together did they sell one of the best players we had, and de- him in mid-season, with the club finally in the pennant without protecting the pitching staff? The same officials will either have to produce that er pretty soon or the Seattle fans will do some tall on their own part regarding the good faith of said ‘The fans Gidn’t take kindly to the a [Rouncement that Marry Casey event, Clay Hite has the right idea trying to bring some new prelimi here.
