Big Day Coming Up For Pop . .

Snider Again Wields
Potent Bat; Dodgers
Smother Braves 13-2
By MILTON RICHMAN
Unittd Press Sports Writer
Duke Snider figures that he
"loused up" his baseball swing
' by playing golf two weeks ago,
but if he keeps teeing off on ene
my pitchers, he'll put the Dodg
ers within a nine iron shot of
the pennant in no time
For the second straight day,
Snider battered par on the Eb
betts, field course Tuesday with
his 16th homer and a pair of sin
gles in a 13- 2rout of the Braves
that moved Brooklyn 7V2 games
ahead of the straggling National
league field.
Thursday's performance by
the Duke, coupled with the
three homers he clouted against
Milwaukee Wednesdays, is pret
ty fair hitting, especially for a
guy who insists, "I haven't real
ly felt right at the plate since I
went out and played 18 holes of
golf while we were out west last
month."
Going Like Sixty
Snider had an 85 on the day
he refers to, but he's been going
like 60 for the Dodgers, boosting
his batting average from .296 to
.329 within the space of a week.
His two-run homer off Bob Buhl
helped the Dodgers to a 3-0 lead
in the third inning and then he
singled twice in the eighth as
the Dodgers poured across 10
runs. Billy" Loes was nicked for
homers by pinch hitter td
Mathews and Johnny Logan but
he had easy sailing for his sixth
win.
The Phillies defeated the sec
ond place Cubs, 8-4. with the
help of Andy Seminick's grand
slam homer in a five-run first
inning. Southpaw Curt Sim
mons, who yielded Ernie Banks
13th homer, was the wining
pitcher although he had to be
rescued by Bob Miller in the
seventh. Warren Hacker was
the loser. . .
Johnny Antonelli of the Giants
got back in the winning column
with a 6-3 decision over the
Redlegs. The Giants pooled five
of their nine hits for three runs
in the third inning, a frame m
which Willie Mays doubled
home one run and Sid Gordon
doubled in two more. Mays also
connected for his 14th homer in
the seventh while Don Mueller
hit his second homer. Ted Klus
zewski collected three of Cin
cinnati's six hits, including his
15th four-bagger.
Pirates Wallop Cardinals
Big Dale Long drove in five
runs with a homer and two sin-
, i. i i tho Pirates to a IZ-o
victory over the Cardinals. In
all Pittsburgh blasted five St.
Lo'uis pitchers for 17 hits, in
cluding a homer by Frank
Thomas. Max Surkont was the
winner while Harvey Haddix,
the ace of the Cardinal mound
staff last year, suffered his
eighth loss.
Rookie Herb Score of Cleve
land fanned 10 batters in beat
ing Baltimore, 9-3, but the In
dians remained three games be
hind the American league lead
ing Yankees who rolled to their
19th victory in 22 games with a
, b Aor Kansas City.

ing, Parnell gave up two runs

er in the third before leaving

Kell homered off reliever Tom
Hurd. Virgil Trucks registered

Paddy Young
Fight Choice
New York (U.R) Light heavy
weight Paddy Young of New
York,, who had but three bouts
inv 18 months, is favored never
theless at 11-5 to tame "Wild
cat" Billy McNeece tonight in
their TV-radio fight at Madison
Square Garden.
Many fans regard the 11-5
price . as an "over-lay" because
23-year-old McNeece of Central
Islip, N.Y. is such a save slasher
some oldtimers call him a
"modern Ace Hudkins."
Left-hooker Young, 26, is fa
vored because of his punch and
because of his experience in 61
bouts. Morover, he was good
enough two years ago to fight
Bobo Olson for the American
middleweight title. That was
shortly before Olson became
world champion.
Red-headed McNeece, engag
ing in his first Garden main
event, has had but 16 profes
sional fights.
