CHICAGO IPl' Chicago'.-,
"go go" White Sox, back on Ihcir
home wounds, vowi-d today that
they'd make their economy tyi
basehall pay off again to uin the
World Series in which they trad
the I.os Angeles Doners three
games to two.
"We'll win it now." predicted
Whiti Sox manager Al Lopez.
He named Karly Wynn a his
starting pitcher when the series
lesumes in bruknalleJ Comiskey
J'ark on Thursday. He'll be op
posed by Johnny I'odres. the sore
back lefthander who won the sec
ond game of (he Series in Chicago
last Friday.
We're back in business whei
wc make one run stand up." Lo
pez chuckled. "That's liow we won
the American League penna:it
That 8 how we'll win the Series."
But he admitted that the White
Sox. who went back to their black
stockings Tuesday to change, their
luck, weren't out of baseball's
woods.
"We have to get even first," he
observed.
He didn't know whether Ins club
would wear the white stockings
they started the Series with, or
the old black ones they switched
to Tuesday when they kept their
hopes alive with a 1-0 triumph
bvtore the largest throng in World
Series history 92.706 in Los An
geles Memorial Coliseum.
St&ckingt Trailers Idea
"Jt was trainer Ed Kroelich's
idea to change our stockings hop
ing to change our luck, and I
went along with him because you
do anything when you are desper
ate." Lopez explained.
And the White Sox were desper
ate Tuesday. They made a fourth
inning run scored on a double
play hold up and withstood a
Dodger eighth inning threat which
will go down in Series history as
one of the most dramnt :c of all
times.
Manager Walter Alston of the
Dcdgeis. fill continent but 1am
entii'g that "we have to go all
the way back to Chicago to wrap
il up,'' ga-.e Lopez credit for
"nutting the right man in the
right siki a' the right time."
"But we l ave Johnny ready for
them Thursday, so maybe our
tay here won't be too long." he
auded.
"We were flying high because
we are back on the beam," Lo
pez commented, cautiously order
ing his club out for a workout
this afternoon.
Hitting Practice Today
"We'll concentrate on hitting
practice." he said. "We sure need
it especially with men on bas
es." Actually, he didn't get jt in
Tuesday's win, for it was a dou
ble play ball which scored the
winning run. Vet that was only
typical of the kind of ball the
White Sox have played all year.
Their backs to the wall, they
threatened. Sady Koufax, the
Dodgers' erratic, fire-throwing
southpaw, in the third and this
time they were frustrated be-
Stocl
By LA,
cause their base stealing short
stop tried to take an extra base.
In the fourth, however, they
cashed in on an opportunity the
kind that has been hitting pay
dirt for them all year. ...
Battling Nellie Fox led off the
inning with a single and raced to
third as Jim I.a-.dis followed with
a single. As Sherman Lollar hit
into a double play. Fox scored
with the run that stood up all
the way.
The White Sox didn't mount any
threats after that, but the Dodg
ers did and in the battle of man
agerial wits that followed, Lopez
won out over Alston, thanks to
big Dick Donovan.
That was in the story-b o o k
eighth.
it looked bad for the White Sox
when Landis lost Wally Moon's
fly ball to center in the sun and
it fell in front of him for a single.
Winning pitcher Bob Shaw retired
Norm Larker on a fly ball, but
Gil Hodges rifled a single to cen
ter, sending Moon to third. On the
play, trying to gel Moon at third,
Hodges went on into second.
Now the rival managers started
making moves, one counter to the :
other.
Alston sent up left handed bat-1
ter Ron Fairly to hit for right j
hander Don Demeter. Lopez took
out Shaw and out in southnAw Hil-
Fairly and sent up right-handed
hitting Kip Kepulski to the plate.
Lopez ordered Pierce to walk
Repulski intentionally, filling the
bases.
Furillo Again
So Alston called on Carl Furillo.
his pinch hitter dc luxe in the nen
nant playoff against the Braves
and in the Series. So Lopez took
out Pierce and put in Donovan.
There were pinch runners, pinch
hitters and a lot of Series records
were tied or broken in Uie inning.
but it mattered not to the White
Sox for Donovan did the job.
He retired Furillo on a pop fly
and Don Zimmer on a fly ball.
As it turned out this time. Lopez
made the right moves. He made
one an inning earlier with two
men on base, he put Jim Rivera
in right field, shifted Al Smith.
who had been playing there, to
left, with Jim McAnany going to
the bench.
All Rivera did was to haul down
Charlie Neat's long drive to deep
right center to cut off two Dodger
runs.
So now the sands of baseball
were running the White Sox way.
And Lopez summed it up when
he said:
"We're back in business. We'll
stay in it, too."
