Rumors Fly Over Rickey’s Next Job After Brooklyn Exit
A. P. sports writer JACK HAND reports that Branch Rickey, after resigning from the Dodgers, deflected rumors of a Pirates GM job in Columbus. Pirates officials denied any deal with Rickey or Galbreath, while Roy Hamey was said to stay. Rickey plans meetings with Galbreath, Saigh, and DeWitt, and says he does not want to retire as he tours possible paths, including St. Louis and DePaul. Brooklyn leadership under Walter O’Malley signals no immediate successor, with Rickey’s duties likely split among several aides and Bert Shotton’s future uncertain. Pee Wee Reese emerges as a potential managerial candidate if Shotton departs.
