'ft' ft ft- I a MeNulty Cops Nightcap, 5-2 Opener Dropped, 7-3 ; Split 'Headers 'Out' By Al LUhtner Statesman Spirts Editor Still the inconsistent ones theyrve been all season, the town Senators broke ev- in their split double bill with? the Yakima Bears at Waters field Sunday; dropping the afternooner 7-3 and snatching the nightcap 5-2. -Thus for their series with the Yaks the local dan diesvvon two, lost two and retain ed their third place perch in the loop standings. The Solons now take a day eff before hitting the road again to open a three-game stand in Wen atchee Tuesday night. The .first whirl at split double headers, installed Sunday, amounts to the last also. General Manager High Luby has decided that play ing once in the afternoon and then again the same night is too rough on the ballplayers. And so from now on the Sunday bills will be played in the afternoons. As an attendance booster the Eunday "split" was a flop also. A crowd of 1247 took in the after noon game, but only 851 showed up for the arc mix. The combined total of 2098 was just about match ed here May 9 when 2050 paid to nee the afternoon doubleheader that day. Two bad inning cost Joe Mis jhasek his fifth loss in Sunday's first game. The Bears nailed him for three runs on four hits in the third frame, and for four more tallies on five bingles in the eighth. The latter splurge broke wide pen what had been a tight strug gle, as the Senators in the sixth inning tied the count at 3-3 with a big frame of their own. The three-rurr Salem sortie was all the resident nine could manage off the educated tosses of one Matt Zidich, righthander optioned to Bears Friday by San Francisco. He was a mighty tough hombre in all but the sixth when a combina tion of Mishasek's bunt hit, a walk to Richie Myers,' Boss Luby's jingle to left, Glenn Stetter's (tingle to the same field and George McDonald's one-baser over third brought in the three runs. Yakima put together five straight singles for the four big runs that broke the tie. Rawbone Ray MeNulty, work ing despite an ailing elbow on his pitching arm, came through in the finale by holding the enemy to seven hits and picking up 13-hit batting support of his own. The nightcap was a fine duel between the red-headed right hander and huge lefty Bill Boem Jer for five innings. But an out break of two runs in both the sixth and seventh innings got rid of Boemler and helped to bring on McNulty's fourth win of the sea son. But for two bad pitches Me Nulty could easily have had a shutout. In the fourth he picked up Mike Baxes' bunt and threw badly to first for an error, allow ing the Yakthird-sacker to wind up on second base. He later scored the unearned run on McNulty's wild pitch. Then in the sixth with two out MeNulty let up on a serve and Jerry Zuvela whopped it over the right field fence for a home run. This was to be all the scoring for the Bears, who could collect no mote than one hit in any one in ning off MeNulty. Bill Beard's single and Richie Myers line triple to deep left renter amounted to Salem's first run in the fifth off Boemler. In the sixth a combination of three walks and hits by George .McDon ald, Pete Tedeschi and Beard net ted two more tallies. .Boemler left .in the next frame wrn Dick Faber, Stetter and Mc Donald hit consecutively, Mac's bingle scoring Faber. Tuckett's perfectly executed squeeze bunt off Reliefer Dave Anderson tallied Stetter with the final run of the fame. Pitcher Ludwig Lew has been placed on the disabled list because of a lame arm, and will be out of action at least 10 days . . , For the season to date the attendance total reads 21,471 . . .
