SERIES LOOMS
The issue may be settled tern
porarily this weekend when
Cleveland invades New York for
three games starting Friday night,
While the American League
race was tightening, the National
League became more lopsided
with the New York Giants stretch
ing their advantage over Brook
lyn to seven games, their longest
lead of the year.
The Giants won a 13-inning
struggle in Cincinnati 2-1 and
Brooklyn lost in 10 innings in
Chicago 3-2. St. Louis defeated
Philadelphia 4-3 in the only other
National League action. Milwau
kee and Pittsburgh were not
scheduled.
Other results in the American
League included a 9-1 triumph by
Washington over Baltimore and
two more losses by the Philadel
phia Athletics, their 9th and 10th
in a row, this time to Detroit
12 0 and 4-3.
The Giants and Dodgers' games
both were decided on errors. In
Cincinati, the New Yorkers
pushed across the winning run in
the 13th on a single by Bobby
Hofman followed by two misplays
and a sacrifice fly by Whitey
Lockman.
Gene Baker scored the winning
run for Chicago against Brooklyn
by scampering home from second
base when pitcher Jim Hughes
dropped an easy toss at first base
that should have been the third
out.
Johnny Antonelli stayed all the
way for the Giants in winning his
J4th game against two losses.
The only run aginst him was a
homer by Ted Kluszewski.
HADDIX WINS
Harvey Haddix of Ihe Cards
joined him as a 14-game winner
after beating the Phils but Haddix
needed ninth-inning help from
Gerry Staley. Four hits climaxed
by a triple by Bay Jablonski pro
duced all of the St. Louis runs
in the first inning.
The Yankees pinned the fifth
loss on Bob Keegan although they
were oulhit 8-7. Fine fielding
which included three double plays
helped Whitey Ford to his ninth
success.
Detroit scored

Turley Gives
Fox Credit
For Control
DETROIT 11 Bob Turley, the
Baltimore Oriole pitcher who be
gan the season with raves as the
new American League strikeout
king, reported Saturday he has
found out what's wrong with his
control, which lately has him
walking twice as many as he's
fanning.
The big 23-year-old right
hander credits Howie Fox, a fel
low moundsman who is from
Thurston, Ore., with spotting his
trouble.
"If you've noticed," said the
speedballer, "most all of my wild
pitches have been outside to a
right hand batter, and sometimes
high.
"Howie told me to try stand

fie Coast League race to five
games.
With the ace of the staff, Lino
Donoso, hospitalized, and Fred
Stroble recently optioned, the
Star hurlers apparently feel it
necessary to go the route in
every game. No relief was neces
sary Tuesday night as Mell
Queen and Roger Bowman tossed
a pair of five-hitters. The Stars
won the opening game against
Ihe Seals, 5-2, and the windup,
23 11-0.
jjgl'i Bobby Spicer, Ihe little Los
2914 Angeles pitcher who throws just
about every pitch in tne dook,
was in rare form as he held Oak
land to five hits and scored his
third shutout of the season. The
Angels won, 3-0.
Although Oakland couldn't
dent the plate, a tipsy feminine
fan succeeded right after the fi
nal out. She vaulted onto the
playing field, circled the bases
in eccentric fashion, and then did
a slide into home plate In a
cloud of dust just as the lights
on the field went out. A male
fan, apparently in pursuit, also
tried to circle the sacks but trip
ped at third and then vanished
for refueling.
Rain washed out two games,
Sacramento at Portland and San
Diego at Seattle. There will be a
double bill Wednesday night in
Seattle.

Stanky Suspended,
Vows to Improve
ST. LOUIS, Mo. (IB A chas
tened Eddie Stanky accepted a
five-day suspension Wednesday
as manager of the St. Louis
Cardinals with a promise to
turn over a new leaf.
Slanky and his club lost on
all fronts Tuesday when Nation
al League President Warren
Giles disallowed their protest of
Sunday's forfeited game with
the Philadelphia Phillies.
Giles, who added a $100 fine
lo Slanky's penalty for delaying
Ihe game, also suspended Car
dinal Catcher Sal Yvars and
Phillies Firstbaseman Earl Tor
geson Yvars for three days
and Torgeson for two.
It was Yvars and Torgeson
who touched off a free-for-all
fight between the learns by
squaring off at home plate.
Police had to break up the
fracas which followed.
Shortly thereafler, when
Stanky went to the mound to
relieve Pitcher Cot Deal, Plate
Umpire Babe Pinelli awarded
the game lo the Phils because
of Cardinal "stalling."
Stanky read a stalement
which amounted to a public
apology for his conduct on the
field.
"I called this press confer
ence," he said, "because of the
impression I received Sunday
when I heard Ihe SI. Louis peo
ple applaud Plnelll's decision lo
forfeit the game to Ihe Phillies."
Slanky's voice was choked
wilh emotion as he declared
that he was "proud of my char
acter off Ihe field."
"I am aware of the booing
here in St. Louis," he said.
"As a player, I was' booed quite
frequently. I always took the
atlitude the hell with il and
I am out here to win ball
games. Since becoming a man
ager in 1952, my wife, Dickie,
and very close friends have
been (tying lo knock into my
head that there is a difference.

ly that I have embarrassed and
hurt the St. Louis people, base

as a baseball man of which I
have been very proud and Gus
