Eugene forced the District 5-A-l
baseball race into a sudden-death
playoff when the Axemen stag
gered to a 7-6 come-from-behind
victory over Springfield Tuesday
afternoon at the Civic Stadium.
The contest knotted the two clubs
for first place in the race, nec
essitating a one-game playoff
which was to be held Wednesday
afternoon.
The Millers, who could have
clinched the 5-A-l crown outright
witn a victory, appeared well on
tneir way to doing just that
especially after chasing across five
runs in the first inning.
After Eugene pitcher Jack Hen-
nei reurea tne urst natter on a
pop fly, he dished out a walk to
Jack Cozad. Duane Reeves fol
lowed by lashing out the first of
his three hits, a liner over second
base.
DICK EDWARDS followed with
shorty fly to leftfield which
Rich Leavitt missed in a diving
try. However, Cozad who had held
up at second base was behind
Leavitt's force-out peg to third.
wnen tne throw was wild Cozad
scored and Reeves and Edwards
advanced a base.
Burright followed with a
"bleeder" down the first base line
but Chuck Stevenson threw past
tne catcner to the backstop, with
two more Springfield runs cross
ing the plate. George Bilderback's
solid single to right brought in
Burright. After Bridees fanned.
Loyd Hinkle reached base on Dale
Dickey's muff of his grounder. Bill
Thompson followed with another
sharp rap, plating Bilderback,
Willoughby, who also was the first
out, grounded out to end the five-
run frame.
In the ton of the second. Spring
field threatened to make a walk
away of the contest loading the
bases with one down. Singles by
Cozad and Reeves plus a walk to
Burright jammed the base paths,
Bilderback struck out and Bridge
hit a grounder to get Henkel out
oi tne inning unscathed.
EUGENE STARTED pecking at
the Miller lead in the bottom of
the second inning, with a four-run
rally. Dick Weaver started this
with a hot single down the third
base line. Tommy Bowen walked
but Weaver was cut down at third
on an attempted steal.
Springfield hurler Thompson
continued to have trouble with his
control and gave Chuck Stevenson
a base on balls. Chuck Hoeflein
then tied into a Ditch for a high.
long double to right-center bat
ting in Bowen and Stevenson.
Henkel's lasher past third base
chased Hoeflein home.
Hank Hudspeth and Dickey
walked to load the sacks, and
Gene Stott followed with a tower
ing fly to short leftfield with
Henkel trying to score from third
after the catch. Reeves' throw to
the plate was perfect but Hinkle
dropped the toss when Henkel slid
into him, allowing the fourth run.
Leavitt's fly to center ended the
inning.
SPRINGFIELD BUILT its lead
to 6-4 in the top half of the
fourth frame after Reeves opened
with a single up-the-middle.
Hudspeth then kicked Edwards'
double play grounder and fired
wildly to third base in an effort
to cut down Reeves. This allowed
the Miller lead runner to score.
After that, Henkel settled down.
The Millers never got another
man on base as the sophomore
righthander retired the last 12
hitters, including .five on strike
outs. It was in the same inning, that
bugene staged its game-winning
three-run splurge. Hudspeth start
ed this by smashing a single off
the thirdbaseman's glove. After
Dickey forced Hudspeth at second
Stott drew a walk. Thompson then
deflected Leavitts bouncer with
his glove, but the Miller hurler
pegged wildly to first base, allow
ing Dickey to score and moving
Stott to thirdbase and Leavitt to
second.
WEAVER APPLIED the win
ning hit, a whistling double to
left field which rolled into foul
territory after lighting fair. That
scored Stott and Leavitt with the
needed Eugene tallies. Earl Cof
felt came in later in the same in
ning to stifle the Axemen hitters
the rest of the way.
Reeves was the leading batter
for the game with three singles
in four trips. Leavitt had a single
and triple and Weaver a single
and double for Eugene. Bildre-
back, Hoeflein, and Weaver each
batted in two runs.
In scattering six hits and allow
ing no earned runs, Henkel fan
ned seven and walked two. Losing
pitcher Thompson walked nine,
fanned two and allowed six hits
in his three and two-thirds in
nings. Coffelt fanned two and
walked one in his relief chore.

Tracker Needs
Medical Miracle
Only a miracle by Trainer Bob
Officer will make possible the
running of Quarter-miler Ted An
derson in the Northern Division
track championships in Seattle
Saturday. That is the opinion of
Coach Bill Bowerman, who ex
plained that the pulled muscle at
the back of the thigh is not seri
ous, but the very worst place for
such an injury, as shallow as it is.
Anderson will make the trip, however.
On the brighter side of Oregon's
chances to add the championship
to dual-meet honors already won,
is a report that Don McClure,
veteran top-flight broad-jumper,
will be ready for action along with
Sprinter Bill Fell. Fell, scheduled
to vie in the Fresno Relays last
Saturday came up lame with
slightly pulled groin, but the in
jury is rapidly responding to
treatment. Oregon's ace freshman
hurdler, Dick Zimmerman of La-!
Grande, will remain out of com
petition. He has not run a race I
this season.
Others who will be members of
the 18-man traveling squad are
Jack Smith and Jerry Mock in the
100 and 220, along with Fell; Doug
Clement, 440; Jack Hutchins, 880;
Al Martin, Wayne Reiser and Fred
Turner, mile and possibly two
mile; Larry Blunt, hurdles; Smith
along with McClure in the broad
jump; Emery Barnes, high jump;
Ray Packwood and Russ Mannex,
pole vault; Chuck Missfeldt, jave
lin; Chet Noe and Bob Craig, shot,
and Ben Lloyd, discus.
Lack of gasoline may prevent
the Webfoots from making the
trip via air in one day, so will
bus both ways if necessary, leav
ing here early Friday.
Maglie, Garcia
Lead Pitchers
Earned Run Figures
Amazingly Small
NEW YORK (P) A pair uf
durable right-handers, Sal Maglie
of the New York Giants and Mike
Garcia of the Cleveland Indians,
top their leagues in earned run
effectiveness.
According to pitching figures re
leased by the statistical bureau of
The Associated Press, Maglie has
yielded a mere five earned runs
in 44 innings for a 1.02 mark,
The statistics do not include Tues
day's games.
The swarthy ace of the Giants
as second last year to Chet
Nichols of the Boston Braves. The
rookie southpaw, who finished
with a 2.88 average, was inducted
into the Army last month.
Garcia, the American League
pace-setter in this department,
also has been extremely stingy,
yielding only seven earned runs
in 54 innings for a 1.17 era. Last
season Garcia ranked sixth among
the league hurlers.
