The rest of the team have let
us stay close 4'i games from the
top going into today's" same',"
Ster.gel said. "I don't know why
they have. We sure haven't done
anything to hurt anyone. I just
gotta thank all these fellas for
beating each other.
"We've been poor. 'Everyone
knows it. I've been surprised be
cause I've got some men I know
can hit for distance and some of
those pitchers that are beatin' us
aren't 20 game winner" Stengel
said.
I The Yankee victory over De-
3ij I troit Wednesday night was the
44 j (irst since last August and only
the second Tiger home defeat in
12 starts under Jimmic Dikes who
has managed the club to a 20-9
record.
'Two things have shocked this
club." Stengel said, "the losses
and getting shutout. It's surpris
ing to me. I didn't think you
could do that 'shutout' to this
club I've got some pretty
strong men."
The M whitewash Don Messi
hung on the Yanks Tuesday was
the seventh of the season and in
all I95J. New York was blanked
just 10 times still an abnormally

17-hit Beaver attack Wednesday
night to whiter ash the San Diego
Padres 10-0 on a four -hitter.

scored four runs in the first a3
unearned and it was all the cush
ion Johnson needed.
Rookie first baseman Steve Jan

second base opened the floodgates
for the Beavers.
In the fifth, the Beavers scored
five limes. Clarence Moore start

gled. Greengrass also hit a homer in
the first inning and Snyder had
four for five for the winners.
Jose Pagan, rookie Phoenix
shortstop, was not around when
the Giants captured the Pacific
Coast League pennant last year,
but he decided to celebrate it in
high style anyway.
The Giants officially raised their
195S pennant Wednesday night and
then almost threw a wet blanket
over the fun by frittering away a
7-3 lead against Spokane.
Tbe Indians bopped Giant ace
Eddie Fisher and reliefer Marce
lino Soils for four runs in the
ninth to tie up the score, but Pa
gan proved to be the life of the
