Robinson's 11th homer, off loser Ralph Terry, broke a 1-1 tie in the sixth inning. His sin gle in the eighth drove home winning pitcher Chuck Estrada, who had singled and moved to second on a sacrifice. The victory extended Balti more's longest winning streak of the season to five. The Yanks suffered their fifth consecutive SECTION C HIGHCLIMBER: By Dick Strite if What's wrong with the Emeralds? That's a standard question asked by Emerald Empire baseball fans. The local fans were given to understand the parent San Francisco Giants had provided the manpower to make Eugene a pennant contender in the strong class B Northwest League. t - . , - The Emeralds are pres ently in the cellar. They have the lowest team bat ting percentage with only one player hitting above .300. The Ems are just a fraction out of last place in fielding, but with the double-play p r o d u c tion showing improvement. There are only three pitch ers on the staff with more wins than losses. Now the Ems meet three formidable foes. League leading Wenatchee is at Bethel Park for a current series, the Tri-City Braves come here Thursday through Sunday, and then the Salem Dodgers play the Ems at Medford Monday and then here Tuesday through Thursday. Actually manager Bud Byerly has a fair-to-middlin' ball club, but certainly not a pennant contender at the present time. We'd say the thing the Ems lack more than anything else is a "holler guy." It Is the most complacent group of ball players we've ever seen here. They certainly should not be, but their actions are those of contentment. They're not the competitors that fight from behind to win the close ones. If replacements were available, and we understand Uncle Sam has a few, some heads may fall. if The second-half schedule starts July 3, which means the Ems are virtually out of contention for the first-half pennant, but will have an opportunity to get new life. The Ems have had a vacancy on their mound staff so have acquired a third left-handed pitcher, Ron Cataldo, who comes here with a 1-4 record from Fresno. In marked contrast are three recent acquisitions by the Tri-City Braves pitcher Johnny James, Los Angeles Angel right handcr who had a 51 record with the New York Yankees in 1960 and has been sent to Tri-City to work him self into condition after recovering from a sore arm. Another is Billy Harris who had a 7-9 record with Spokane last year. Another is Chico Heron, third baseman who hit .321 in the BRIGHTER HOMES Whip defeat. Estrada struck out eight and allowed seven hits before he tired and was removed at the start of the ninth. Jack Fisher pitched the final inning for the Orioles. Baltimore, which had been shut out the last four times Es trada started, finally scored a run for the hard luck righthand er in the fifth inning. Boog Powell, playing his first game since being beaned by Yankee pitcher Bud Daley eight days ago, doubled and scored on a bad-hop single by Hobie Lan drith.
