    Durable Lollar found niche as White Sox anchor, run-producer By John McMurray Soft spoken and self-effacing, Sherman Lollar provided a strong defensive presence be-hind the plate during his 12 seasons with the Chicago White Sox. An All-Star catcher in seven seasons of his 18-year major-league career, Lollar won the first three American League Gold Glove awards from 1957 through 1959. Although he was not known as a power hitter, Lollar hit 155 career home runs and collected 1,415 hits. He also produced one of the White Sox’ few bright moments in the 1959 World Series apart from their Game One victory, a two-out, three-run homer that tied Game Four in the seventh inning. (Unfortunately the Sox lost that game, 5-4.) Even though Lollar played well and received awards during the 1950s, he did not receive as much national recognition as fellow catcher Yogi Berra, who won three Most Valuable Player awards. As Red Gleason wrote in The Saturday Evening Post in 1957, “It is the fate of some illustrious men to spend a career in the shadow of a contemporary. Adlai Stevenson had his Dwight Eisenhower. Lou Gehrig had his Babe Ruth. Bob Hope had his Bing Crosby. And Sherman Lollar has his Yogi Berra.” John Sherman Lollar Jr. was born on August 23, 1924, in Durham, Arkansas. His father, John Sherman Lollar Sr., had been a semipro baseball player and was a veteran of World War I. When Lollar Jr. was three years old, he moved with his family to Fayetteville, Arkansas, where his parents opened a grocery store.

  • Bob Feller Pitches Opening Day No-Hitter Stuns White Sox in April 1940 by Dr
    Bob Feller Pitches Opening Day No-Hitter Stuns White Sox in April 1940 www.bobfellermuseum.org by Dr. David Fletcher Feller had been in the AL for four years by the time opening day 1940 began. He baffled hitters with his repertoire of pitches and crafty changes of speed. His curveball was particularly unfriendly to right-handed hitters. The pitch sped at a right-handed batter before dropping down toward the strike zone. To further confuse and trip-up hitters, Feller used a variety of windups - ranging from overhand to “three-quarters” to sidearm. Photo courtesy: Baseball in Wartime (baseballinwartime.com) FELLER BEATS WHITE SOX IN NO-HIT GAME, 1-0 / HEMSLEY DRIVES IN CLEVELAND'S RUN WITH TRIPLE, wrote Ed Burns in the “Chicago Daily Tribune” the day after Feller’s opening day no-hitter. “It was a treat day yesterday for baseball rejoicing or brooding, according to the mood and the inspiration. What would you do on a rainy, cold day if you were just over having participated on the winning side of a no-hit season opener,” he continued. Feller remembers that his arm was sore before pitching on opening day 1940, which turned out to be one of his best years. He had pitched two days before in an exhibition game in Cleveland against the Giants. “I never pitched well in the spring,” he said. In his 1947 autobiography, “Strikeout Story,” ghost-written by Frank Gibbons of the Cleveland Press, he noted that, “I can honestly say that I have pitched many better games…I was lucky that day and I got fine support.” “Bobby Feller, the 21-year-old miracle boy from Van Meter, IA, pitched a no-hit game yesterday and the Cleveland Indians won the season opener from the White Sox, 1-0,” blared the papers the next day.

  • Joe Dimaggio's 56-Game Hitting Streak
    General Admission DiMaggio’s Hitting Streak by S. Derby Gisclair Member, Society for American Baseball Research On May 15, 1941, no one took much notice of Joe DiMaggio’s second inning single off Chicago’s Eddie Smith, except for the fact that it scored Phil Rizzuto and accounted for the only Yankee run in a dismal 3 – 1 loss. The New York Yankees were struggling to stay in contention for the American League pennant, and by mid-month they had clawed their way back into striking distance. However, this would be the first of 91 hits between May 15th and July 17th that comprise Joe DiMaggio’s remarkable 56-game hitting streak. Two weeks later, before a paltry crowd of 6,000 in Cleveland on June 2nd, the Yankees lost to the Indians by a score of 7 – 5 in a game that saw DiMaggio extend his streak to 19 games, collecting hit number 26 in the second inning off Bob Feller and hit number 27, a double, in the eighth inning. After the game the team was informed of the death of Lou Gehrig. With the death of their captain and teammate, the Yankees and the baseball world mourned Lou Gehrig and still DiMaggio’s streak would remain largely unnoticed. Instead of being hindered by the pressure of a pennant race and the death of Gehrig, DiMaggio became energized. From June 7th to June 20th he hit at a .468 pace as the Yankees began a stretch in which they would capture 41 of their next 47 games. The press began to take notice.
