In the East we think of the celebrated pitcher as a screwball of the highest order, with eccentric dressing, and topped with chipped daffiness.

Diz didn't even have enough money to buy the ring!" Dizzy, according to Anderson, used to keep Fred Ankerman, president of the Houston club, just on the outskirts of the lunatic asylum. Hardly a day passed but that Dizzy called Ankerman and told him, with pain in his voice, that something had happened to his arm, and that he never could pitch again. Ankerman would race over to see Dizzy, only to find him sitting in the lobby, laughing at his joke. 331 Avolon Boulevard N. F.
