Baseball's Most Stupid Tradition “Toothpick” Sam Jones’ no-hitter last May 12 was memorable in more ways than one. First, it was the first Cubs no-hitter since 1917. And second, Jack Brickhouse, who described the action on TV, flaunted a long-standing taboo by saying that Jones had a no-hitter in the late stages of the game. This was not standard broadcasting form. The theory that a player or an¬ nouncer can jinx a pitcher even by hinting of a no-hitter has persisted for years. This, of course, is just about the most stupid precept in baseball. Al¬ though Jack is to be commended for defying this taboo, he could have made more frequent references to it than he did. The game was certainly made more dramatic by knowing that Jones was fashioning a perfect game. Although most Chicago sportscasters no longer conform lO this ridiculous tradi¬ tion, many naive Chicago baseball fans still believe in it. It’s been interesting to note that, like most athletes suddenly making head¬ lines, “Toothpick” Jones has been in¬ fected by an actor’s temperament. Chi¬ cago sportscasters have foimd him al¬ most impossible to cope with for per¬ sonal appearances. Jones recently turned down a sizable fee for a brief interview on Dave Gar- roway’s Today Show. Norm Barry was all set to interview “Toothpick” on the NBC-TV network but Johnny Erp, NBC’s sports director, refused to pay Jones’ fee. “Apparently,” grumbled Erp, “Jones figures he’s a big star. He’s just not worth the money he asks!” TV GUIDE
