...because of the fine double-play combination of Second Baseman Bill Mazeroski and Shortstop Dick Groat, who claims that his broken left wrist has mended. In the outfield, the Yankees' weak link is Leftfielder Hector Lopez, who not only has a poor arm but stirs prayer in the breast of Manager Casey Stengel every time he wanders after a fly ball.
