Hutchinson Says
Lefty May Start
In First Game
CINCINNATI (7P)-Jim O’Toole,
power-throwing southpaw of the
National League kings, the Cin
cinnati Reds, is the best prospect
to start the World Series, Man
ager Fred Hutchinson indicated
yesterday.
Hutch didn’t pick a series start
er against the New York Yan
kees, because the Reds have three
more regular-season games to
play at Pittsburgh this weekend.
But he tabbed O’Toole to start 1
tomorrow and said he would con
tinue his regular rotation, with
Joey Jay, 21-game winner, pitch
ing Saturday and Bob Purkey
wrapping up the season Sunday.
That puts O’Toole squarely on
the spot Oct. 4 for the first series
game in Yankee Stadium.

Maris Takes Rest
After Hitting 60
NEW YORK (/P) True to a
promise he made to himself a
week ago, Roger Maris took a
much needed rest yesterday to
grid himself for a final assault
on Babe Ruth’s record of 60 hom
ers in a season.
Maris’ decision to sit out yester
day’s game between New York
and Baltimore caught everyone
by surprise, particularly since the
Yankee bomber had only Tuesday
night smashed his 60th home run
of the season against Oriole right
hander Jack Fisher. He has only
four games left m which to reach
the coveted mark of 61.
The left-handed slugger had
been contemplating such a move
as far back as Sept. 19. He even
pin-pointed a specific date, the
game in which Steve Barber was
on the mound for the Orioles
Wednesday.

the Pittsburgh Pirates yesterday.
“The doctor told me to try it

workout behind the plate. “It feels
real good now and doesn’t pain
me at all.’’

twisted the knee while running to
ward centerfield in a game at
Milwaukee on July 7.-He under
went surgery for removal of car
tilage a few days later and has
been under treatment since then.
