Harvard appears pretty much set defensively Junior Bobby Kay has great speed and is a fine fielder at third, and Elliott Rivers, who played there last year, has made the transition to first base...
Some of the key muscles belong to third baseman Elliott Rivera, pitcher Doug Sutton and shortstop Tony DiCesare. All hope to prove that their arm injuries are history. If Rivera's tendinitis flares up, he may have to move to first base. If Sutton can't pitch seven innings without soreness in his arm, he'll have difficulty earning a starting spot. And if DiCesare, whose arm has been great in practice, can't throw consistently, Bob Kay may become this year's shortstop...
...think we're going to be the kind of team that scratches for its runs," says Nahigian, a 24-year veteran who has always preferred the tuckel-and-dime and dime attack.

Elliott Rivera, whose 300 1983 average is tops among returning regulars, sacrificed 19 times, more than two out of every three times he came to bat with a runner on and nobody...

"I think Michael can be hurt very easily," Spielberg says. "He's sort of like a fawn in a burning forest." Jones watched Michael break down several times while recording She's Out of My Life for Off the Wall, and eventually just left the crying on the track...
