    Bevos Move To Salt
With Firm Grin On
Lake
Third
By United PreM International
The Portland Beavers move in
to Salt Lake City to open a three
game series tonight with their
boid on third place just as firm
as it was tien they, moved into
Phoenix last Friday.
Portland pounded out a 13-7 vic
tory over Phoenix Sunday to re
main a game and a half ahead
of the Arizona club. The Beavers
are two and one-half games back
of second place Sao Diego and
four and one-half behind league
leading Sacramento.
Jim Greengrass led the Port
land attack against Phoenix Sun
day with a home, double aid a

drove in 12 runs. He had II hits!'" I seventh inning to crush j crasher dropped Carl Greene to
mean much in poker, wrecked the
f root-running Solons twice Sunday
night and cut their margin over
San Diego to 2'i games. In this
case, the "fours" consisted of a
four-run rally by the Mounties in
the third inning of the opener
which boosted Watkins to his 5-1
win and a similar eruption in the
second inning of the nightcap that
cinched a 6-1 triumph.
Incidentally. Ed Basinski ac
counted for the quartet of Van
couver tallies in the second game
ith a bases-loaded homer.
But those short bursts in Sac
ramento were peanuts compared
bursts to split a twin bill. The
Rainiers had their big moment in
the eighth inning of the first game
to win. 13-7. after the Bees had
tallied five in the seventh. Then
Salt Lake countered with a half
dozen during the same frame to
insure a 10-5 win.
After San Diego downed Spo
kane. 4-2. in a conservative open
er, the Indians cinched the finale
with a four-run Jolt in the second
inning and went on to a S-4 de
cision. The Solons traded Watkins to
Vancouver earlier this season and
sure enough, be got back at his
old mates with a seven hitter in
explosions heard eLsewhere. the first game. Winston Brown
in 18 times at bat. including three
doubles, a triple and two home
runs.
Portland hung Sunday night's
loss on Giant 'Ace Eddie Fisher
who failed for the second straight
time in his quest for his 14th vic
tory. Howie Reed went the dis
tance for Portland for his sixth
win.
Russ Snyder also homered for
the Beavers.
Bud Watkins hurled Vancouver
to a 5-1 win over Sacramento to
become the only pitcher besides
Reed to go the distance in some
wild Sunday action which saw 35
hurlers used in seven games.

and Salt Lake took turns sandbag- Chuck Estrada, a right-handed

Well. Sunday Wilheim s pitching
took the Orioles into second place
via a 3-0 victory over the Kansas

muffins of the league are only
one game behind the first-place
Chicago White Sox and are a
half-game ahead of the third
place Cleveland Indians both of
whom split their Sunday double
