Coleman, Frank Messer, and I are on hand to bring you all the action.

Now the Yankee came in and surprised the Tigers and all the press by taking the first two games of this three game series.

The third and final game today, It'll be Joe Spomer against Stan Bonson

two hard throwing right-handers. And in yesterday's ball game if you remember

Mel Stoddlemy pitching the best game of his career, a one hitter to shut out Detroit,

bought an up.

Now Jerry Coleman, who has a bit of clairvoyancy in that

my mind to his, interviewed Mel Stottlemya down in spring training and he asked in some of the questions which were pertinent to yesterday's game.

We're going to have that interview right now. Talking about

doing things differently, you're doing something different with a new pitch out

there and I understand it took you a year to master what is known as a sailor or

something like it. Well Jerry it's actually a true slider.

I started throwing an off- seam or cross-team fastball

and come up with this pitch, and I worked on it the whole year

before I tried using it in the game and it has been real successful and has helped me

my other pitches too so I'm going to stick with this pitch and it's helped me the last two years

and I think it's going to help me more probably this year.

Mel Stottlemyer, a pitcher certainly make a ball club and at the same time the men behind the pitcher

helped to make him when there are errors or when there are bad plays behind you, what goes on in

your mind? I'm sure there must be something. Well, Jerry, I rely on a good defense. That's my whole

secret to pitching, I think. I try to keep the ball on the ground.

And when there's an error, this is one thing I never let bother me because errors are going to happen.
