He might've even lucked into a QS but for those meatballs to Cabrera (who is no schlub). Location on his off-speed stuff seemed more of a problem than velocity, his curve esp. had no crispness.

For anyone who read Sunday NYT, Sal Maglie pitched for Giants against Yankees in 1951 WS. He played for the Yankees in 1957 and 1958. Hit a homer against Washington On May 18, 1958, a game in which the mick also hit one. Long season.
