The first man up for the Dodgers walked to start the ninth, and the next batter was Pete Reiser, who was limping on a bad leg. Yankee Manager Bucky Harris ordered his pitcher, Floyd "Bill" Bevens, to walk Reiser, and put the possible winning run on base. According to most major league managers this is breaking a "cardinal sin" in baseball. Harry "Cookie" Lavagetto promptly doubled off the right field wall, and not only did he spoil Bevin's bid for a World Series no-
Assistant Kansan Sports Editor "Second guessing" is always a part of every sport, and needless to say the "second guessers" are always right. It is easy to say how something should be done after it has already happened, and the only time the "second guessers" voice their opinion is when something has gone wrong.
We have seen an example of second guessing at our own university. Last season football coach J. V. Sikes sent a substitute into the Kansas State game when it appeared that KU was ready to score a touchdown. As it turned out the Jayhawks were penalized and the touchdown never materialized. What would have happened if the substitute had cleared a big hole in the line and a KU halfback had scored a touchdown to tie the score? Sikes would probably have been acclaimed the "smartest" coach in college ranks.
Major league baseball managers bear the brunt of the "second guessers" remarks. In the 1947 World Series the New York Yankees were leading the Brooklyn Dodgers 2-1 going into the last of the ninth in a game at Ebbets field, and the Dodgers had failed to make a hit in the entire game.

hitter, but "Cookie" drove in the tying and winning runs. The "second guessers" had a field day after that one. If Lavagette had been put out, Harris would have been called a genius for walking a dangerous hitter like Reiser, and pitching to Lavagette.
Freddie Hutchinson, manager or the Detroit Tigers, came in for his share of abuse just a few days ago. On a Sunday double-header with the Boston Red Sox the Tigers managed to win two games, 7-6 and 9-8, but with no thanks to Ted Williams, who finally returned to the lineup from the Marines, and more recently, the hospital. Williams, with a stainless steel pin holding his left collar bone together made eight hits in nine trips to the plate.
The next night, with the Tigers leading 3-1 in the eighth, and a runner on first base, "Hutch" had his pitcher walk Williams. The next batter, Jackie Jensen, had gone hitless nine straight times, but he proceeded to unload one into the bleachers. "Hutch" broke the unwritten rule of putting the tying run on base. Again, the "second guessers" went to work, and probably put in some over time, because William had been retired by the Detroit pitcher on two occasions in the game, and had been walked another time, but not intentionally.
A manager or coach usually defends himself by saying that if he had to do it all over again he would do the same thing the same way.
And that is why managers and coaches make from $5,000 per year, and up, and up, and up, and the rest of us who do the "second guessing" have to pay our way into the ball parks and stadia.
