Perry Brings Calm But Not Shown Pitch To Indians
Gaylord Perry has adapted quickly to the American League with Cleveland winning eight of his first ten decisions and helping the Indians to a surprising AL East lead. He credits Ray Fosse and his brother Jim for support while opponents allege Perry uses a slick pitch with substances on the ball. Managers complain but Perry says the focus on the pitch helps him control hitters and still notching wins.
