Tim Martens, defeated Mike Deh- Hoping to improve their 2-2 Dick Groat, was bunted to sec Wonder what makes a major league baseball team click not as a winner but just as a member of one of the biggest loops in baseball. Thought about that at the White Sox Comiskey Park Monday. Manager Al Lopez was busier than a salesman sealing up a million dollar contract. He was being viewed by everybody. The assistant coaches were batting ground balls to the infielders, fly balls to the outfielders, and the gents wearing the uniforms of the Pale Hose were taking their turns at bat.

To have and to hold and one weak spot can keep a team from finishing first. Wandered around Comiskey Park some more to take a good look at Don Buford, the young man who may have the say so about the White Sox infield this year. He is succeeding one of the best, the tobacco chewing Nellie Fox, in my book one of the most courageous little guys the game of baseball has ever produced. Nellie (Nelson) was an infielder who never backed away from anybody, be he 6 feet 2 or 6 feet 10, and in the clutch Nellie was always at his best. Don, a Texan, is a switch hitter, 5 feet 8 and 173 pounds.

He actually looks smaller than that. "But take a look how he is developed from the waist up," prompted Eddie Short, the general manager of the White Sox, "'He was a football player, too." Took another glimpse as Don posed for the cameras. Eddie was right. Don has strong arms, strong shoulders and a well-developed neck. "How good is he?" I asked Eddie.

With that came a grin. "You knoW something," he confided. "We're high on him because he is a switch hitter. The White Sox have not had too many of that type. The New York Yankees have had.

Maybe this is a good omen. "There is nothing to worry about with Don at the plate. He needs some improvement on defense and some smoothing on the double play, but all of us are high on him." In his fourth professional season in 1963, Buford won the International League batting title at Indianapolis with a .336 average. He paced the league with 206 hits, 114 runs, 41 doubles and 42 stolen bases. Late in the season he came to the White Sox and had a .286 batting average in 12 games.
