Davey Lopes was one of the names you’ve probably heard of who was signed by scout John Keenan. Bill Russell, Don Sutton and Mitch Webster are among the others.

Now the Dodgers’ first-base coach, Lopes was drafted by the Dodgers in January 1968 — there was a January draft then — out of Washburn University in Topeka, Kansas. Kansas was Keenan’s territory.

“He was very quiet, personable, well respected at his job,” Lopes recalled. “His grandfather was a scout, Burt Wells. They were highly thought of in the game for quite a while.

“He was good at what he did. He got a couple really good players.”
