Exuberant spring baseball notes from multiple leagues
The report covers Paul Pettit, an 18-year-old pitching prospect for the Pirates, who struggled in a major league debut after a string of minor league warmups. Pittsburgh won 10-7 in New Orleans as Pettit showed potential resilience. Other notes include Mel Parnell dominating for Boston, Bob Kuzava nearly no-hitting Houston, and Giants and Indians splitting spring games as teams prepare for the season. The piece also notes Red Rolfe’s admiration for Charley Keller and Chicago Cubs manager Charley Grimm switching sides for a Texas League game, with White Sox spring-tour losses and attendance figures in New Orleans and Orlando targets.
