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.
Ex-Yanks Aid
In other American league
games, the Senators got great
help from Archie Wil snn nnrl
Jackie Jensen, the two players
woo came lrom the Yankees jis
they tripped the B rowtis 2 tn 1
and 15 to 7; the Indians came
irom behind to down thr. Port
Sox, 9 to fi; and the athletics
topped the Tigers, 10 to 6 and 6
to o.
The Giants kept up their all
victorious pace on a Western
trip by outlasting the Cubs, 6 to
3; the Reds cashed in on fine
relief pitching by Frank Smith
in both games to defeat the Phils
5 to 4 and 8 to 7; the Dodgers
beat the Pirates. B tn n- oi,h ti,
Cards won from the Braves. 4 to
