When he gives an order he expects it to be carried out to the best of a man's ability. The word excuse has been eliminat- ed from his vocabulary. Wil- liams took the Boston Red Sox from a ninth place finish last year to the championship of the American Baseball League and into' the World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals. More _ typewriters have pounded out accolades about Williams than Boston has beans. There is little left to say about this "tough guy" -who apprenticed well in the minors before assuming the shaky managerial reigns of the slop- py Sox. Mr. Williams has that uncan- ny knack ( similar to John McGraw, way back when), of turning mediocre ballplayers into a gang of fearless ruffians. He'll instill a winning submis- sion by using any means avail- able. Williams is much like Vince Lombardi of the Green Bay Packers. (Anyone not familiar with Lombardi must leave the room for the next nine hours). Lombardi's philosophy iS: When you can pierce your op- ponent's armor with- certain strategy, then continue to strike at that weakness until the enemy corrects it. When this is done, begin to probe elsewhere.There'll always be a weakness. How often have you watched or read about the Packers com- ing from behind to win a game in the final quarter or last few minutes? How many times have you watched or read about the Red Sox winning a game in the late stages or ex- tra innings? Victory in clutch contests is often achieved through the ef- forts of an individual player. The tough guy tIRE CHIEF KEEP MATCHES AWAY FROM YOUNG CHILDREN However, percentages will show that various coaching or managerial moves have made these 11th hours successes possible. You have to have the right man in the right place, at the right time, to deliver the key hit or make the big catch. And this is done through superior managing or coaching, depend- ing on whether it's football or baseball. Let me stop and clari- fy a point here --~ in: baseball it's the manager who makes the strategic decisions and in football this responsibility lies with the coach. Many people will argue the Red Sox had a lineup of stars to assist Williams. Others will say that "everything went to- gether and fell into the right place for Williams." Perhaps there is a truism here, but the Sox have had their stars in other seasons and have been lucky not to drop to the Pacific Coast League. Possibly the Boston Red Sox won the pennant a few months ago. George Scott, the large and often lumbering first baseman, took exception to performing in the outfield when ordered by Williams. After a brief "con- versation," Scott went into the hinterland. Shortly after Scott stepped on the scales and was overweight. Williams, who is a strict diciplinarian, benched Scott for a three-game series. The Sox lost the series. But Scott became so intent on reducing his calorie count that he returned to 'the lineup slimmed down and _ weecked havoc with opposing pitchers for over a month. This test of player versus manager proved to the rest of the Red Sox that when Wil- liams commanded, they obeyed And their rewards have been plentiful. SAYS:
