Regular season

[edit]

In 1952,Rogers Hornsby, an alleged former member of theKu Klux Klan, took over as manager of the Browns. Despite past accusations of racism, Hornsby was less hesitant to use pitcherSatchel Paige than Indians managerLou Boudreau had beenfour years before. Paige was so effective that when Hornsby was fired by Browns ownerBill Veeck, his successorMarty Marion seemed not to want to risk going more than three games without using Paige in some form. By July 4, with Paige having worked in 25 games,Casey Stengel named him to the American LeagueAll-Star team, making him the first black pitcher on an AL All-Star team. The All-Star game was cut short after five innings due to rain and Paige never got in. Stengel resolved to name him to the team the following year. Paige finished the year 12–10 with a 3.07 ERA for a team that lost ninety games.
