[Stanley Kuppchaser]

Computer Al, manager of mystery for the Mundys, has little patience with his pitchers. All 12 of the hurlers on the roster have started at least once through 81 games and 10 have at least one save. Haven't kept much of an eye on his line-up moves. I think I may let him have control of the roster, just to see who he shuttles in and out. I wonder who he is? Perhaps the progeny of Ring Lardner's sounding board? Hint if you're too young to recognize the name: google "You know me, Al."

Actually, I did google it to check my memory and, more precisely, Al is the sounding board for Jack Keefe, Lardner's main character. I might have to read it again myself.
