5B BURLINGTON (N.C.) DAILY TIMES-NEWS THURSDAY, JULY 7, 1966 Chandler Just Smiled- Sonny Siebert's No-Hit Dreams Came True After Lengthy Wait By SANDY PADWE Newspaper Enterprise Assn. NEW YORK (NBA) Sonny Siebert would read the stories about Gary Peters and Jim Bouton, then he'd imagine the same words being written about him. This was during the early part of the season when Sonny was trying to pitch with as sprained right index finger which completely upset his rhythm and pitching motion. A pitcher's arm is a fragile instrument, delicate as a piece of Limoges China. An insignificant finger sprain can cause enough damage to change a career.

It was that way with Bouton and Peters. Big stars the year before, both had arm ailments in 1965 which led to a change in style and then almost total ineffectiveness. Sonny Siebert his winter looking forward to 1966. Rightfully so, because last year he was 16-9 with 191 strikeouts for the Cleveland Indians. But during spring training at Tucson, he suffered the finger sprain which immediately led to changes in his delivery.

"I couldn't throw my fastball and slider properly," he said. "My curve was all right, but I had changed my motion. I'm a leverage pitcher. Due to the injury I found myself losing the leverage. I started throwing stirctiy with my arm.

And I did not follow through correctly." SONNY SIEBERT 'It's dying down now" After the first two months he started 10 games and completed only two. His record, however, was 4-3, mainly because the Indians were leading the American League. Then came the night of June 10 when the righthander faced the Washington Senators. "I had talked with Early Wynn (the Indians pitching coach) and had an idea what my trouble was," Sonny said. "I pitched batting practice a couple of times and began feeling better.

''Then that night it all worked correctly for the first time. My fast ball and slider were working. So was my curve. I was keeping the ball down, too." It worked so well that at the end of the evening, Sonny Siebert had pitched a no hit game. "It was," he said, "The furthest thing from my mind.

I figured if anyone on this club would pitch a no hitter, it would be Sam (McDowell). He had a couple of one hitters and was going well A few weeks later, Siebert was reliving the game. He displayed no emotion. "I got the usual response," he said, "the telegrams from people I hadn't heard from in years, telephone calls, all the interviews. "But it's dying down and I'm glad.

That was the first game this year that I did things the way I should have. "If I keep reliving it, I'll be in trouble. We have 60 per cent of the season left. I start every four days. If a pitcher is lucky enough to get a no hitter, fine.

But look at how many great pitchers haven't pitched one." Sonny Siebert is 29. He started as an outfielder in 1958, but Spud Chandler, an Indian coach, convinced him two years later that his future was in pitching. Two days after the no hitter, Chandler was in Cleveland for an old timers game. "He didn't say much to me," Siebert said. "He just sort of smiled." QUESTIONS: 1.
