Chicago Cubs moved their top minor-league operations 10 lhe Midwest and left Tacoma dangling without a sponsor.

Within 48 hours, he had raised 20 panners at $5,000 apiece to back a homerown operatlon.

For each of the seven campaigns he has headed for the Tacoma team, Naccarato has sold more than 1,000 season tickets 10 give the team a solid flnanclal base even before the gales swung open for the inaugural game. To empha­ si:te rhe effort, no one had ever reached the 1,000 goal before Naccarato, and he has set an alHime club record for ducat distriburion prior to rhe start of this season.

Naccarato has been involved in numerous city, county end state civic, spons and entertainment ventures. Just recently, he completed a term as chairman of the Wash­ ington State Athletic Commission, which governs pro box­ Ing and wrestling in lhis state.

Not 100 many years back, Stan's strong right pitching arm drew major league scouts to Clover Park High School in suburban Lakewood. But IhaI promising career was thwarted by a sore arm.

So Naccararo re1urned to Tacoma to make his living as a shoe salesman end manager or rhe Tacoma Athletic Com­ mission. H1s S1anley Shoeman won the 1956 American Amateur Baseball Congress national championship. He next became general manager of radio station KLAY-FM. owned by Clay Hunrlngron, chairman of rhe Pierce County Commissioners.

In 1960, with 1he return of PCL baseball 10 Tacoma, he became a promotional consullanr to T-Giants General Manager Rosy Ryan. A dozen years larer, he became lull­ time Tacoma Twins general manager.

Stan Naccarato General Manqger•Executlve Vice President Stan Naccarato was named Minor League Execurlve of the Year in 1975, bur !here are many who would say he's deserved rhe award each of rhe six seasons he's headed the Tacoma Pacific Coasr League franchise. .

"Everyone In the organizlltlon," declared T-Yenkees Genera' Manager Sten Naccoroto, "feels that Ferraro LI great lutur, timber for the meJor leagues. He has great poise, he's dsmand• Ing and he has a lot of drive. He's very strong on fundamantals.

With his credantials, It's claar he knows the difference between winning and losing."

Ferraro says his teams "go over fundamantals quite a bit. We axecuta properly. Since I didn't have much ability myself, I had to put everything forward as a player. And I expect my clubs to giva 100 per cant, too. I expect everyone 10 play to the bast of !heir ablnty, and to producas winning team. Most of the kids l'Q have started with ma in 1974 at Oneonta. I took most of them to Fon Lauderdala In 1976. I seem 10 rotate well to young players.

"I feel we have the best crop of farmhands since 1967, when we had Steve Whitaker, Thurman Munson. Mike Hagan, Friu Peterson and Stan Bahnsen." Ferraro still ls a close friend of Whitaker, the Tacomnn who later played with the Yanks end Pilots and now lives In Fon Lauderdale, Fla., the winter homo of the Yankeas.

Farrare, bom Aug. 18, 1944, at Kingston, N. Y., Is In the major-leagua record books for making 11 assists by a third be» man for the Yanks again$! Washington Sept. 14, 1968. Th• "Outstandlng Yankees Rookie" In spring training earlier that vaar, he was returned to Syrecuso and becama the International Laagua all-star third baseman later that vaar belora being drafted 19th by Saattle In the expansion pool.

In 162 major-league games, Ferraro had a lifatime batting overage of .232. His playing career ended at Tacoma, whan he drew his release, raturnad home to Fon Lauderdale and got e call from the Yanks requesting him to go to Syracuse to help Cox with lhe lntemaUonal Laague farm team.

Farrare, who likas to swim or play pool whan he's not on the diamond, savs he's "tickled pink" about "getting a job at the Triple-A level." It's another st.ep up the ladder for the T-Yanks' new skipper.

Mike Ferraro Manager Mike Ferraro, who played 12 games for the Tacomn Twins In 1973, returns to Chenoy Smdlum this sea,on as top kick for the new Tacoma Yankees.

Toe former New York Yankees and Seattl• Pilots-MIiwaukee Brewe111 U,lrd beseman Is considered one of the best young managers In the game. So high were the New York Yankees on the man they consider second only to BIiiy Manin in their sys­ tem that thoy denied newly named Atlanta Breves Manager Bobby Cox a chance 10 dlscuaa a ma)or-league coaching job for Ferraro.

In four years of managing, Fam1ro has bullt a 261-154 won• lost record, all In the Yankees' chain. Ha lad Oneonta to the 1974 Naw York•Penn9ylv1nla League title with a 53-16 record In his debut in 1974, then finished third the following year at Oneonta with e 35-34 slate. Promoted to Fon Lauderdale In the Cius A long-season Florida State League, he logged a 77-62 mark for a second-place finish. Last summer, at West Haven In the Class AA Eastern League, ha had an 88-52 first-place finish before defeating Threa Rivers 3--0 In a playoff for the league champion-

Slanguage Baseball has hod a p,owerful •ff- upon the American alanguago, and It vtvidly demonstrates how much baseball affeelS the (!Verydey conversation of people-(!Ven those who seldom at• tend games, What we like le called A HIT. The man who funs haa STRUCK OlJT or, at bast, DOESN'T GET TO FlRST BASE. A person who la Indiscreet Is WAY OFF BASE and may end up being CAUGHT OFF BASE. When we are unprepared, we are somerimOB CAUGHT OlJT IN LEFT FIELD. Our salesmen make PITCHES. When we undel$Ulnd a situation, we GET THE PITCH. Otherwise, we DON'T CATCH. The opponent In an argument who makes en extrema statement 10 retrieve• lo11 point Is REALLY REACHING FOR IT. An unfortunate mistake Is A REAL BLOOPER. A person who behaves eccentrically Is A SCREWBALL. One not to be trusted la e FOUL SALL. When we refuse 10 be discouraged, it's because WE'LL GET OUR INNINGS. If you're getting pr8S8ure from both aides, yau inay be the vie• tim of a SQUEEZE PLAY. Until you get going, you're just WAR· MING UP. After that, yau're RIGHT IN THERE PITCHING. Whan you covar (!Very contingency, you TOUCH ALL THE BASES. But whan you compete ou11fde your class, you're NOT IN THE SAME LEAGUE.

Until 1969, the rellofer could charged with an IM!med run if he ti,. game af1er the side could have tired but for an error, no melter ho runs he subsequently gave up in t Ing. Now, runs scored by batters wt base off the reliefer are cbarges a, on that pitche�• record. They ara n< (!Ver, oharged 81 earned against the a whole.

Last year, he doubled as head of both the PCL and International League, the first man llV1!f to S<!Ne as chief administrator of two Triple-A leagues at the same time.

Headquanered at Paoli, Pa., and a member of one of Philadelphia's wealthiest famll'ies, Jackson attended the University of Pennsylvania, where he played football and baseball and "ran a little irack" as a freshman before un• dergoing a heart operation which ended his sports asplra­ tions.

Now beginning his 11th season as head groundskeeper at Cheney Stlldlum, the 42-year-old former Iowa state prep e10ss­ coun1ry running champion has the reputation for operating the "bes1-kepI park In the Paclfic Coast League." That Is the unani­ mous opinion of friend and foe alike.

He'll tailor the mound to suit the home team's pitching staff !steeper for young hurleral, slope the baselines !for bunting and fielding purposes!, mow the grass high or low Ito affeCl the way lhe ball bounces! and soflen the basepath !to slow speedy run• nersl.

"Two years ago," Ryan recalled, "Howell had a slnkerball pit• char, Charlie Hartenstein, so we wau,red dowo the area in front of home plllte 10 slow Iha ball. That made the pitcher and third basemen do e 101 more fielding.

"We sof1ened the path around first base to pn,vent runners from stealing and we kept the infield high because we had a team that could bunt end run well.

"This isn't a 9-10-6 job," Scort added. "You have 10 take so much pride In your work that • paycheck Is secondary. You've got to set high standards and refuse to compromise." His work­ day bogins In mld•momlng and ends after tho game.

Ryon is a collector. extremely popular among players, fans and officials. His collections Include autographed baseballs and pictures, n11WSpaper clippings end spons books.

"Tho players are o lot or run," he seid. "They can't keep their hands off my motorcycle. Bui tha1's OK. Thay wouldn't fool around with ii If they didn't like ma."
