Phil Rizzuto Sparks Yanks To Victories By United Presi Jockey-sized Phil Rizzuto, who looks like ho could sit In for Eddie Arcaro any time his pal is too busy to ride the Kentucky Derby winner, was making the Yankees look like world champs again. The 33-year-old shortstop, who was supposed to be glowing up, is whizzing along like the yeasti- est youngster in the majors'. With Flipin Phin as the mainspring in most them, the Yankees arc making double plays at a fan tastic clip 30 so far or twice as many as any other team in the majors. But that's only part of the story. Sunday, as the Yankees clipped the White Sox, 8 to 0 and 3 to 1, Rizzuto got a triple and single in the first game, a triple and double in the sec ond game, boosting his average to .324. 5 Double Playi The Yankees made five double plays for the day and Rizzuto figured in four. In the first in ning of the opener after being trapped off third base, he lured catcher Phil Masi Into a foot race. The Chicago catcher tried to beat Phil back to third and looked foolish as he finished a poor second. While that was go ing on, Irv Noren, who could have been thrown out at first base on a ground ball, had hot fooled It all the way to second. It was the start of a four-run rally which blew the game wide open. Youngsters Tom Mnren n unci Bill Miller pitched strong-arme- 1 games to give the Yankees i twin win. Morgan yielded : hits before going out In the opener with a torn finger-nail in the seventh. Miller, a smooth motioned lefty, pitched a seven hitter in the second game.
