  • Go-Go to Glory
    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.

  • BASEBALL: the OLD DAYS (Originally Published July 1977)
    BASEBALL: THE OLD DAYS (Originally published July 1977) A recent article in Sports Illustrated on Roger Marris brought back memories of baseball—the baseball that once was played more than fifty years ago. In 1961, Marris broke the old Babe Ruth record and, with Mantle batting behind him in the clean-up spot, made up half of the combination the Home Run Twins, which belted out a total of 115 homers that season. Marris' career in the lime-light was relatively short lived as compared to heroes like Ruth and DiMaggio, who preceded him and Mantle who outlasted him. But Marris and Mantle weren't even born fifty years ago. My own baseball heroes were guys you never heard of, like "Deadpan" Bob Dowie, "Oyster Joe" Martina and Ollie Tucker. They used to play for the New Orleans Pelicans back in the 1920s, and they played in old Alex Heinemann’s ballpark on the corner of Tulane and Carrollton Avenues next to the railroad tracks and the New Basin Canal where the Fontainebleau Hotel now stands. Alex was a crusty, cigar-smoking, elderly bachelor, a supposedly philanthropic gent who loved all children. He was especially fond of young boys wearing tight britches. After Alex died, they changed the name of his park to Pelican Stadium. Anyway, in those days, unless you lived in one of the eleven major league cities, the real baseball heroes were those in your hometown, playing in a league like the old Class AA Southern Association or, over here in Georgia, the Sally League. Sure, we kept up with the majors and knew about the Indians and Senators, and about John McGraw's Giants or Connie Mack's Athletics, and the big stars like Tris Speaker, Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Walter "Big Train" Johnson, "Dizzy" Vance and Hank De Berry, but they were just sport page names of teams and players we read about but never saw unless they happened to come through town for a preseason exhibition with the local club.
