Giants Eye Strong Pair At Infield To Boost 1959 Bid
Giants outfielder Hank Sauer, in his 22nd season, praises the proposed middle infield of rookie Andre Rodgers at short and Chuck Spencer at second. Rodgers, who led the Pacific Coast League with Phoenix last year, eyes a return to the big leagues after limited time. Manager Bill Pigney plans Jack Sanford as a key arm and seeks three left handed starters including Jonell i, McCormick and Fitzgerald. Sauer notes the lineup around Willie Mays and Jackie Brandt could field a powerful outfield and produce runs, with Sauer himself ready to fill in and pinch hit if needed.
