Casey Stengel Plans Lefty Heavy All Star Strategy
Casey Stengel plans a left handed pitching emphasis for the 28th All Star Game at Griffith Stadium naming Billy Pierce as starter and hoping for Whitey Ford and Herb Score to finish. Alston counters with Bob Friend and Warren Spahn as southpaw anchors in pursuit of balance and power against the Yankees. Mantle’s knee injury clouds readiness while Piersall may shift the batting order, leaving the AL favored at 7 to 5 as rain chances threaten postponement to Wednesday night or Thursday.
