TEJf MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Friday, April 28. 1950 DiMag Slams 2 Homers And Rogues Lose, 8-5 Pittsburg, Cal., Apr. 28 (Special to Mail Tribune) Play er Manager Vince DiMaggio of the Pittsburg Diamonds proved far too potent with his bat last night as his two homeruns ac counted for six of Pittsburg's runs that defeated the Medlord Rogies8-5. The California team had to come from behind to defeat the Oregon team as the Rogues were showing their best form of the still young season to lead 5 to 0 as the last of the fifth inning started. The Medford boys scor ed three runs in the first and two in the second. DiMaggio slammed out a grand slam roundtripper in the fifth and then came back in the seventh with a two run dibsi, hnth nvr the left field barrier. The twin assault proved fatal to Pitcher Lloyd Jones of the Rogues who otherwise silenced the heavy-nimng uiamonas. Medford took a 3 to 0 lead in the first frame when Don Fitz patrick walked, Manager Tom my Nelson reached on an error, Don Williams also drew a free ticket and Catcher Mark Gug lielmo doubled to deep right cen ter field. "Back Again!" EVERY DROP STRAIGHT BOURBON The Rogues picked up their final two runs in the second stan za on successive singles by Jones, Fitzpatrick, Stewart and Nelson.

When the smoke of battle had subsided the team of Pete Bel castro and George Strickland had defeated Leo Wallick and Buck Davidson. The substitute match was arranged when a re currence of a knee injury kept Lee Grable, who was supposed to meet Wallick, off the card. One-Sided Affair The team match was pretty much of a one-sided afrair as far as the Wallick-Davidson combi nation was concerned. Except for a brief flurry when all four men were in and out of the ring in a wild melee, Davidson re fused to relieve his partner and frequently advised Belcastro and Strickland on methods of procedure. After it was all over Wallick and Davidson became engaged in an argument which Wallick settled by knocking Davidson out with a pile driver. That irked Belcastro and Strickland and they chased the Chicago toughie from the ring before aiding Ref eree Earl Yoakley in removing the unconscious Davidson. In other matches, Belcastro used a surfboard to take two falls from Ted Bell, the second by default when Bell was un able to continue, and Davidson won two out of three from Strickland.
