Grimes Credits Mule-Taming Father For Brooklyn's Rise
New York August 23. Burleigh Grimes owner and manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers says his team’s growing success stems from his father once being a Missouri mule-tamer. Grimes notes an 18 month track record of turning difficult mules into family carriages and applies the metaphor to players like Ernie Koy and Freddie Fitzsimmons. Babe Ruth’s presence strengthens club morale as he mentors young pitchers while urging caution on curveballs.
