In a manner of speaking, Spahn had been walking around with an asterisk since July 29 when he fanned five Cincinnati batters and brought bis strikeout total to 2,378. Some said that total made him the new all-time left-handed strikeout king, but others said it didn't. Rube Waddell, former southpaw lor uie i'nuadeiphia A s, was the cause of the argument. Two sep arate record books listed Wad- ftoll's strilrnntif- tntol of 9 37C Other books listed his total as 2,381.

Alaska Defeats Bees 7-3 By NIEL CELLERS News-Review Sports Editor Lefty Tom Parker experienced only minor difficulty Tuesday in pitching the Fort Richardson Po lar Bears of Anchorage, Alaska, to a pre-tournamcnt exhibition tri umph over the Roseburg Bees. Behind Parker's nifty three-hit effort, the Polar Bears evened the score with the Bees by winning a 7-3 decision. Monday the Bees had dropped the Alaska state champs 3-2. The invaders from the north ap peared to have adjusted well to the lights, banging out nine hits five of which went for extra bases. Alaska jumped into the lead in the first inning when nick n'N,.n walked, was safe at second on an error, moved to third on an out field fly and scored when Roger Sorcnson's fly to right center was lost in the lights and dropped in for a two-bagger. Parker aided his own cause in the second frame when he slapped a triple to deep left center field and scored on an error which al lowed John Meany to reach first base after swinging at a third strike. j The lone "big inning" for the! Bees fame in the fourth when they j managed to tie the score at 2-all. ! Two quick errors put Danny With-! ers and Chuck Person on base. ' Withers took third on a passed ball and Person proceeded to steal second. Both runners scored when Stan Young singled on the ground to left for the first Roseburg hit off Parker. i However, the deadlock did not ; last long as the Polar Bears wast- ed little time regaining the ad-1 vantage. Meany started the fifth a called third strike in the sev enth inning for the 2,382nd strike out of his career. Jlis final strike out victim was pinch hitter Al Ferrara, who ended the game. Idle Two Weeks An attack of tendonitis had kept Spahn idle since that July 29 con test and in his first game back Tuesday night he scattered nine hits. The Braves nicked Dodger starter Johnny Fodres for three runs in the first inning and Denis Menke's sacrifice fly in the eighth inning produced the winning run after Los Angeles had tied the score. Despite the defeat, the Dodgers retained their four-game lead when Cincinnati blanked second place San Francisco, 4-0. St. Louis beat Houston, 4-2, in the only oilier National League con test. Rain washed out the Pittsburgh-New York game. Jim Maloney won his 18th for the Reds with a two-hitter against the Giants. Frank Robinson hit his 17th homer with one on and Vada Pinson his 13th with a man aboard off Juan Marichal. The defeat was Marichal's sixth against 18 victories. Mays Plays Short Singles by Harvey Kuenn and Felipe Alou were the only hits off Maloney, who turned in his fifth shutout. One of the features of the game was Willie Mays' shift to shortstop from center field in the eighth inning. It was the first time he had played any other no- sition but center field since enter ing the majors. Willie said later he didn't think he would ever play shortstop again. He had no chances at his new position. Ken Boyer drove in three runs with a bases-loaded double in the first inning and Ernie Broglio scattered eight hits in the Cardi nals' victory over the Colts. Al Spangler's first-inning homer put Houston ahead temporarily but Broglio gave up only one more run the remainder of the way for his 13th victory In 21 decisions. Bob Bruce was the loser. inning with a walk and was sac rificed to second by O'Ncil. With two away Terry Gose blasted a triple to drive in Meany with the ahead run. Gose trotted home from third on Sorcnson's second double of the game, and Sorcn son came around on John Crane's single. The Alaskans added two insur ance runs in the top of the ninth on two errors and a single by Crane. Crane would have been credited with a triple, but in cir cling the bases the slugging first baseman missed the bag. In the bottom of the ninth the Bees managed to push across the final run of the game. Mike Cash- ncr was safe on a fielder's choice which nipped Rian Brown at sec ond. Casliner moved up a base on Butch Watson's base rap. took third on a passed ball and scored on a ground out. Parker went the distance to pick up the win for the Polar Bears. The flashy southpaw fanned nine Roseburg batters, walked three, hit one batter and limited the hard hitting Bees to just three singles.
