Dodgers Signal System Used for Relief Calls in Dodgers History

Reports from spring training describe Dodgers manager Walter Alston signaling for relievers via a coded system in cities with no dugout to bullpen telephone link. Signals include cheek rubs for Erskine, rowing motions for Alston to Roebuck, high hand for Craig, downward arm for Labine, sidearm for Drysdale, glasses pose for Bessent, and a head-point cue for Podres. Becker in the bullpen uses a towel to signal plays, a tactic later altered to avoid rule clashes. New York writers back Alston’s view on pinch-hitting and foresee a World Series with foreign players in about a decade.
