Maglie Bullies League With Two Curves And Spitter Claim
Giants pitcher Maglie dominates the league with a two-curve, one standard and one killer, plus a hidden secret none can touch. Durocher notes the right-hander’s sweeping curve cuts hard on righties and bites into lefties, keeping hitters off balance. Dodgers and Reds acknowledge his mastery as they joke about forbidden deliveries, while Charley Dressen threatens bold lineup moves to counter Maglie.
