Shantz Shines in All-Star Tiff;
National Leaguers Gain 3-2 Win
By MILTON RICKMAN
Philadelphia (U.R) A soft
spoken pipsqueak who threw
only IS pitches for toe losing
side drew the loudest cheers
Wednesday from the triumph
ant National league all-stars.
Southpaw Bobby Shantz ap
peared only briefly on Shibe
Park's rain-soaked scene Tues
day and even though he toiled
for the losing American league
ers, he was by far the outstand
ing figure In the 3-2 game.
Relieving losing pitcher Bob
Lemon in the top of the fifth,
the five-foot, seven-inch, 145-
pound Shantz flashed his fast
ball through the downpour to
strike out Whitey Lockman,
.307, Jackie Robinson .315 and
Stan Musial .333 in swift suc
cession. Duroeher Praises
"The kid is a wonder," mar
veled Leo Duroeher, who pilot
ed the National leaguers to taeir
third straight triumph. "If that's
the kind of stuff he throws, I'm
glad we didn't have to face him
anymore."
The three top hitters Shantz
struck out were equally im
pressed. "I can see why he' has that
14-3 record." declared Robin
son, whose first-inning homer
off starter Vic Raschi gave the
National league a 1-0 lead. "He
threw me three curves and two
change-ups. And if he had
thrown me his fast curve soon
er, I'd have struck out sooner."
Big Assortment
Musial, the only batter to hit
so much as a foul off Shantz,
said the mighty mite of the Ath
letics had "a tremendous assort

Pilney Sets Pace
In Publinx Meet
Miami, Fla. (U.R) Ex-football
star Andy Pilney headed
the survivors Wednesday in the
third round of the National Pub
lic Links golf tournament.
Pilney, former backfield ace
at Notre Dame, posted one of
the most lop-sided scores of the
tournament Tuesday as he whip
ped Gus Tamburrino, Chicago,
8 and 7, in the second round.
In Wednesday morning's third
round, Pilney was matched
against Matt Carvey, Harvey,
m.
In another feature third round
matches, Defending Champion
Dave Stanley, Los Angeles faced
Robert J. Scherer, Decatur, 111.
"He keeps you off stride all
the time," Musial added. "I
didn't think that third strike
was over the plate but it was a
good fast ball."
Lockman paid . particular
praise to Shantz' controL
"He's really got it, no ques
tion about that," said the Giant
first sacker.
Shantz, himself, said he
wasn't concentrating on striking
anyone out.
No Record Sought
"I merely was trying to get
them to hit the first pitch," he
declared. "I wasn't after any
strikeout records.' v
Had Shantz started the game,
the outcome might have been
different, the National Leaguers
generally agreed.
As it was, the American
league- took a temporary lead
when Minnie Minoso doubled,
Al Rosen walked and Eddie
Robinson and Bobby Avila each
singled off winning pitcher
Bob Rush in the fourth, but the
National league retaliated with
two runs in their half of the
inning when Lemon hit Musial
with a pitch and then yielded a
home run to big Hank Sauer.
Entirely In Rain '
A capacity crowd of 32,785
fretted impatiently for 56 mm
utes before the umpires decided
to call the game on account of
rain in the top of the sixth in
ning. It marked tne nrst Time
in all-star history that a contest
had been played entirely in the
rain and then called.
Sharing pitching honors with
Shantz was another left-hander,
ex-G.I. Curt Simmons of the
Phils, who opened for the Na
tional league after the start of
the game had been held up for
22 minutes.
Simmons Zips
After walking leadoff hitter
Dom DiMaggio, Simmons blaz
ed a third strike past Hank
Bauer and Dale Mitchell, then
induced Al Rosen to ground out
Simmons zipped through the
American league lineup in the
second, striking out Robinson
and yielded his only hit-a-

I
San Francisco U.R) Leon
Brinkopf, the most valuable
player on the Los Angeles team
in 1951, looked Wednesday like
a sure bet to win the honor
again 'this season. '
The Angel third sackef, whose
fine fielding, 25 home runs and
93 RBI s won him a shot with
the Chicago Cubs in the spring,
is. one of those players who ap
parently is too good for the PCL
but just a flea bite away from
the majors.
Brinkopf trailed Seattle's Jim
Rivera last season in the race for
the Coast league's most valu
able player award.
The 30-year-old righthander
started slowly when he rejoined
Los Angeles two months ago.
But he is picking up fast.
Drives in All Runs
Brinkopf boomed out his 11th
and 12th homers of the season
Tuesday night, batting home all
six Los Angeles runs as the An
gels downed Seattle, 6-3. His
second of two three-run homers
came off Paul Calvert in the
ninth with the score tied, 3-3.
Hollywood's Carlos Bernier, a
good bet to be the 1952 player
of the year if the Stars win the
pennant, stole his 42nd base
and doubled home two runs in
his mates' 7-1 win from Sacra
mento. Johnny Lindell, the
loop's winningest pitcher, twirl
ed a six-hitter for the win his
13th. The victory moved Holly
wood to within half-a-game of
the idle Oakland Acorns' PCL
lead.
San Francisco got out of the
cellar ,with a 3-2 win from San
Diego. Portland at Oakland did
not play and will make up the
game Friday night.

"They should outdraw Monday's

Bears Blast
Tyees Again
In WIL Race
Philadelphia (U.R) It may
not have been the most exciting
of the 19 All-Star games, but it
certainly was the muddiest.
A steady downpour, which
made a bog of the diamond, cur
tailed the classic for the first
time since its ihception, brought
some hardly-justified boos upoh
the head of. Phil Rizzuto, nearly
made a goat of Jackie Robinson,
and cheated several newcomers
from their first chance to ap
pear in the game.
Umpire Al Barlick said the
playing conditions were just
about the worst in which he had
ever officiated. By the time the
game was called after five in
nings, with the National league
ahead, 3 to 2, many of the rain
soaked players and fans were
just as happy.
Ritkuto Slips
Rizzuto drew some catcalls in
the fourth innihg when he
grounded into an inning-ending
double play. Many thought he
had been loafing on his way to
first base. He was thrown out
by a wide margin, despite an er
rant relay from Jackie Robin
son. The hooters, it appeared,
had been WatChihg the ball and
never saw Rizzuto slip in the
sloppy going after hitting the
ball.
Robinson also slipped while
going after a ground-ball single
by Eddie Robinson of the White
Sox ih the midst of the Amer
ican Leaguers' two-run scoring
spree in the top of the fourth.
Causes Noted
Philadelphia (U.R) What
beat the American league for
the third straight time in the
All-Star game?
"The rain," said Casey Sten
gel, manager of the vanquished
Americans.
"Home runs," said Leo Du
roeher, manager of the victori
ous Nationals.
Each made his case.
Still Had Chance
Said "Stengel: "At the time
they stopped it, We still had a
chance to come back and win.
It was slippery around home
plate. Three or four of our bat
ters almost fell. down. They
couldn't get off to a start when
they hit the ball."
Said Duroeher, with brassy
sarcasm: "I did a helluva man
aging job, didn't I? All I had
to do is stand in the third base
coaching box and shake hands
with the home run hitters as
they went by."
