first Bobby Richardson at aecond Tony Kubek at short and Ctete Boyer at third The Reds have trouble making the double play They had to deal for Don Blaslngame to dose the gap at second Eddie Kas-ko is at short Freese at third and Coleman at first Berra Mantle and Maris are the outfield with Hector Lopez sometime replacing Berra against a lefty Robinson Pinson and Wally Post with either Gus Bell or
