Mickey Owen Returns to Mexican League Amid Dodgers Dispute
Mexico City reports Mickey Owen, ex Brooklyn Dodgers catcher, crossed from Laredo to join the Mexican league to avoid being the Dodgers’ whipping boy. Owen cites Branch Rickey’s threats as a reason and expects over 20,000 annually, accompanied by his wife and Dee Saunders. He plans to bring his son when vacations permit, while noting other U.S. players may follow. Also covered are Cubs beating White Sox 11-2 in Davenport and Ted Williams homering twice as Boston edged the Braves 11-5.
