14 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, October 10, 1965- JOHNNY KEANE St. Louis Pilot Is NL Manager Of Year By SHELDON SAKOWITZ NE WYORK (AP) -- Johnny Keane, who piloted St. Louis Cardinals to a surprising sec- ond-place finish, was named this week as National League Mana. ger of The Year for 1963. The 51 + year - old Redbirds' skipper was am overwhelming choice in the annual Associated Press poll of sports writers an sportscaster. Of the 71. ballots east, Keane received 53 votes. Walter Alston, manager of the world champion Los Angeles Dodgers, was second with 15 votes. Bobby Bragan, whose Milwaukee Braves finished sixth, got the remaining three votes. Gene Mauch of Philadel- phia Phils, who was Manager of The Year in 1962, failed to get a vote this year. The balloting w.; based on the teams' performances during} games ahead of third-place San/@ League Francisco. They wound up with the regular National season. NOT RATED THREAT Cards, who weren't rated as a pennant threat in the presea-|place finisher with an 84-78 won-! manager trough the chain. son evaluation, stayed in con- tention for first place most of the year. They began to fade in late August and were in third place, seven games be- hind Dodgers on Aug. 30. St. Louis then launched a stirring stretch drive, winning 19 of 20, including a 10-game victory streak. Cards passed the second-place Giants and moved to within one game of the league-leading Dodgers on Sept. 15. : In a vital three game series at home against Los Angeles, St. Louis ran out of gas. The fired - up Dodgers swept the three-game set, captured the flag and kept right on going to |sweep New York Yankees in the World Series. Cardinals finished six games behind Los Angeles and five 93 victories and 69 defeats. SIXTH IN 1962 In 1962, St. Louis was a sixth- lost record, 174 games off the pace, Despite the lack of a 20-game winner, Keane moldéd a steady pitching staff that was led by Emie Broglio and Bob Gibson, both of whom won 18 games. The hitting was solid with Dick Groat, Bill White, Ken Boyer and Curt Flood providing most of the punch. tan Musial, in his last year, supplied some key hits down the stretch and young Tim McCar- ver proved a capable catcher in his sophomore season. But it was Keane who made ithe team mesh in his second full season at the helm. The vet- eran minor league manager had lbeen a Cardinal coach when he 'replaced Solly Hemus as. pilot on July 6, 1961. St. Louis was in sixth ."acr when Keane was lappointed manager and the club nded the season fifth.

'The weapon was provided by the information put together by director of scouts Al Campanis ahd two of his aides, Lefty Phil- lips and Ted McGrew. *The reports contained infor-| mation on the strengths and weaknesses of every Yankee in the hitting, fielding and pitch- ing departments. In addition to routine information, the Dodger pitchers learned which batters would lay off certain pitches, which they preferred, which which pitchers could be waited out and which could not. Here's how some of the know- ledge was used: 1. Drysdale picked off Tony Kubek at first base in the third inning of the third game, won by the Dodgers 1-0. The scouts had detected a give-away move by Kubek, which indicated the hit-and-run play was-on. 2. Jim Gilliam did not stop at second when Clete Boyer's throw got by first baseman Joe Pepitone, racing to third and eventually scoring the winning run in the seveth iig of the fourth game, The scouts had kown that Pepitone had a weak arm. 3.
