Coughtry Among Seals Find Proves Hit Outlook
Deland Ma One of the best looking Seal tockies is second baseman Jim Coughtry from Southern California. The youngster showed promise at San Jose and has a quick glove and sharp reflexes. Bears manager Eddie Joost calls Doughtry a find with a strong chance at second base this year. Pitcher Russ Kemmerer 24 seeks immediate sharpness after flu delayed his arrival. Keammerer notes last year’s stats do not reflect his ability. Other arrivals include Ted Bowsfield and George Toepfer. The Seals host Rochester in today’s game with Joost planning lineup changes and Don Renhardt in the outfield.
