"1 can't recall when we ever got to a pitcher for 11 hits and five walks in six innings like we did to Don Drysdale and not score." he declared. "That's the way it goes sometimes you out hit 'em, but they get 'em when they need 'em. That's the way it was." Alston, who has been confident all along, would not go beyond his pitch!ng pians after n .ning Craig to face Wynn again. Neither would Lopez disclose whom he had in mind for Tuesday's fifth .game. Alston did -say that his relief hero in the , r.j.,.. - Dodgers' pennant playoff victory' and in Sunday's game, would be back in the bullpen. The game was scoreless going into the bottom of the seventh innirg. although the White Sox had runners on base in every in ning. ' Allowed One Hit Big Dick. Donovan had allowed only one hit a harmless second inning single by Gil Hodges and hadn't walked a man going into the seventh. He got the first man in that inning and then came apart at the seams. Charlie Neal. who with Furillo was one of the pennant playoff hitting stars for the Dodgers, be gan it with a single off that left field screen which the White tqx had been battering. On a hit-and-run play, Wally Moon grounded out, Neal going to second. It prob ably would have been a douBle play if Neal had gone off with the pitch. . Then Donovan's control desert ed him. He walked Norm Larker and Hodges to fill the bases, and although he had yielded only two hits, Lopez took him out for re lief ace Gerry Staley. Alston sent up Carl Furillo. who won the second and final playoff game for the Dodgers, to hit for Don Demeter who had been playing center field.
