Marion Takes Over Browns
Boston June 10 Outspoken Rogers Hornsby was fired as manager of the St. Louis Browns by club president Bill Veeck who named Marty Marion as the new pilot. Veeck said Hornsby was unreasonable with players and Marion was hired to finish out the season as playing manager and a bench role for two more years. Hornsby said he would not be dictated to and left for Chicago. Marion said he was surprised but respected the change and hinted at returning to baseball in a coaching role if the right opportunity arises.
