Ron Clark, LAF, 9.2
Richie Thornton, BOS, 8.5

Buddy Thomas, ATL, 7.8
Ray Smith, TOR, 7.4 |  | Johnson Nixed as Manager by Pioneers
Saturday, October 11th , 1975
When your team is not doing well, what does a general manager do? You can't fire the team or fire yourself, so you go to the next thing on the list -- fire the manager.
That's exactly what St. Louis Pioneers GM Roark did today -- he fired manager Babe Johnson.
In the press conference, the Pioneers GM pulled out all the usual cliches about why change was needed. He also praised Johnson in glowing terms and said he would remain a vital part of the St. Louis organization.
As far as firings go, this was a harmonious parting. |  | White Silences Los Angeles, 7-0
Thursday, October 9th , 1975
New York Imperials right-hander Jim White used his full arsenal to shoot down the Los Angeles Suns, 7-0. All day long, he exhibited fine command of all his pitches, giving up 3 walks and striking out 9. White allowed 3 hits in the victory.
"It felt like my catcher and I were on the same page all day, and Los Angeles was on a way, way different page," White said.
This season, White has compiled a 19-10 mark, 3.63 ERA and made 35 starts.
