When the "chips were down" in the '54 Pennant race, Warren came through like a Champion. He won 11 straight games and had more than 20 Wins for the sixth season. With one of the smoothest deliveries in Baseball, Warren has been blazing his fast ball past N.L. batters for 10 years and has topped the Loop in S.0. 4 times. In '49 and '50 he led the N.L. in Wins.

"Rabbit" Maranville
No. 13, The Choke Or Chop Hitter. "Rabbit" Maranville is one of the few choke hitters left in the major leagues now that the lively ball has turned most of the players into long handle, or "free" swingers. He is also the smallest man in the league, weighing only 145 pounds and standing only five feet five inches tall. Choke hitters grasp the bat a third of the way up the handle and chop at the pitched ball, hoping to drive it over or through the holes of the infield. Boys are advised against extreme choke hitting, and a modified form of the choke gets better results in the present day. - By Austen Lake, Baseball Editor, Boston Transcript.
