Senators adopt white hats for Athletics series
Washington Senators respond to Kansas City Athletics with white caps and socks used only against the A’s. Manager George Selkirk pushes the idea despite Cleveland manager Joe Adcock’s protest that white shoes distract batters. AL President Cronin disagrees, protest not allowed as Senators wear dark caps and red and blue stockings for pregame, then white hats on the field. Ken Harrelson backs the look, saying the caps and socks look good. In another note, Donny Horne of Waco Richfield High struck out 33 in 15 innings against Corsicana, pitching a six-hitter after a no-hitter earlier in the game.
