Knee Surgery Puts Hamner Out of Action
Gran Ny Hamner of the Philadelphia Phillies is in hospital with his left knee in a cast after a two hour operation to repair a torn ligament. Doctors estimate 12 to 15 weeks of rest and cast time, with a return to mobility possible but playing again unlikely this season. Hamner, 31, has been a Phillies regular since 1946 and was leading in runs batted in and doubles before the injury.
