Nittany Baseball Hopes

Sluing }lath swung and as
far as baseball coach Joe
Bedenk is concerned it
couldn't have come at a better
time because the 1960 opener
against Clettysbuig is just one
week away.
With 12 lettermen retuining,
fledenlc has sweet hope of mi
ploving Penn State's fourth place

But it won't be as easy as every-,
one thinks Only Olive men axe'

and two of them, Bob Hoover and',
Ron Base aren't the type that
( c m be lent:iced right away.
Hoover captained the Lions
last spring and was the top slug
ger with 28 RBI and a .370 bat
ting average while Riese was
the number two pitcher with a
5-2 record.
Bedenk F. hoping that Bob Luffi
or Bob thobak, a pan• of vaisity,
holdover, can fill Hoover's shoes
at ~ hoiktop. If not, sophomore,
Bill Btu khaidt could get the nod

Slate's peppy!-pot cap
tain, split last season at third
base and left-field and Bedenk
hasn't decided ti,heie he'll play
this year.
The rest of the infield is pret
ty well set with hard-hitting
Larry Fegley at second base
and T.arry Beighey and Bill
Benton splitting the first base
chores.
In the outfield, Bedenk has
steady Zeke DeLong set for duty
in right, but the other two slots
ate up for grabs between letter

;tion in addition to their other
'duties.
Because Benton and Durbin are
such good hitters, Bedenk often
uses them at first base and left
field, respectively, but with Riese
gone Bedenk feels he might have
to count on them more as pitch
ers.
Lettermen Bob Amer and Lar
iry Freedman, both righties, are
'back and they'll be pushed by a
: group of talented sophomores in
eluding Dave Bergey, Marlin Bie
secker, and Ken Bruni.
Lee Rentzel, a 24-year-old left
hander from York, Pa , and sophs
'Gary Chapula and Dave Luongo
also could help with the mound
chores.

match.
