A talented ballhawk, Johnny spent the last three years playing for three different clubs in the Texas League. Breaking into the minors at the end of 1956, the outfielder played in 26 games. The following season he played regularly for Muskogee and batted a solid .300.
The Colts are high on the pitching talents of this young righthander. An all-round athlete, he played third base and in the outfield for his college ballclub when he wasn't on the mound.
Harry has high hopes for the new Houston Colts, one of the National League's two new clubs this season. The ex-outfielder last managed in the American League in '59 with Kansas City. Last year Harry was one of the coaches with the Chicago Cubs. Manager Craft spent 6 seasons in the major leagues, playing with the Cincinnati Reds from 1937 till 1942. Not known as one of the most feared hitters, Harry did have some fine seasons during his career. In 1935, his first season in organized ball, the speedy outfielder hit .317. With Waterloo in 1937, Harry hit a torrid .358 before getting the call to the big time. Near the end of his playing days in 1947, the righthanded hitter batted .315 in the A.A. Harry enjoys working with young talent and he should do well with the youthful Colts.
