Tebbetts Watches Redlegs Fall From Stand Amid Departure
Birdie Tebbetts sat in Crosley Field stands with his wife as the Cincinnati Redlegs suffered a 3 0 loss to the Milwaukee Braves. The former manager had quit earlier in the day saying someone else should lead Cincinnati baseball. Jimmy Dykes, acting manager, faced a season marked by futility as the team mustered only one hit in eight innings and none against Warren Spahn. Gabe Paul defended Tebbetts and noted he would recommend him to another organization. Players expressed mixed feelings as Tebbetts departed and the club slid into last place with ongoing boos from fans. Tebbetts will be paid the remainder of this season with the 1959 portion canceled.
