Major Loop Pitchers
Have Hitting Picnic
In Sunday Conflicts
Br MILTON RICHMAN
United Press Sports Writer
Pitchers in both leagues stag
ed their own "hitting picnic"
Sunday and the majority of them
certainly had their fill at the
plate.
Guys like Willard Nixon of
the Red Sox, Alex Kellner and
Ray Herbert of the Athletics,
Vern Law of the Pirates, Jackie
Collum of the Redlegs and Ned
Garver oi the Tigers got in some
mighty fine licks Sunday as hurl
ers in both circuits slammed a
total of 18 hits and drove in 11
runs.
Nixon exploded a three - run
double in the seventh inning of
the opener to break a 2-all tie
and give the Red. Sox a 5-2 vic
tory over the White Sox. Bos
ton then went on to win its 16th
game in 20 starts by taking the
second game, 8-2, behind Tom
Brewer.
Kellner not only hurled a one
hitter against the Orioles in beat
ing them, 1-0; in the first of two
games, but his second single of
the contest drove in the only run
in the sixth inning. Herbert
drove in two runs in the nighjtcap
to help the Athletics sweep the
twin-bill, 5-2, and hang the sev
enth straight defeat on Balti
more. Law was instrumental in end
ing Pittsburgh's six-game losing
streak when he drove in three
runs with a home run and a
single to beat the cubs, 5-4. But
big Bob Rush gave up only five
hits in pitching the Cubs to a
2-1 triumph in the second game.
Collum collected two of Cin
cinnati's 17 hits while beating
Philadelphia, 16-5, in the opener
of a doubleheader as Gus Bell,
Stan Palys and Ted Kluszewski
each homered, and Art Fowler
gave the Redlegs a sweep with a
five-hit 5-0 win over the Phils in
the finale.
Like Collum, Garver also
helped himself to two hits al
though relief pitcher Al Aber
was credited with Detroit's 10
inning 6-4 decision over the Sen
. ators. Washington then snapped
a nine-game losing streak in the
nightcap when Mickey McDer
mott beat the Tigers, 12-4, while
scattering 10 hits.
The Yankees split a double
header with the Indians, Cleve
land winning the opener, 5-0, as
Early Wynn pitched a three-hitter
and Ralph Kiner homered,
but losing the nightcap, 2-0, as
Whitey Ford pitched four-hitter
for New York. Even though
they split, the Yankees increased
their American league lead to
three games over the second
place White Sox, who dropped
both of their games after having
won five straight.
Braves Shutout Dodgers
Bob Buhl limited the Dodgers
to five hits in pitching the
Braves to a 4-0 victory. Milwau
kee broke a scoreless deadlock
with a run in the sixth that was
set up by PeeWee Reese's er
ror and Ed Mathews added the
clincher when he poled his 17th
homer with two on in the eigth.
Ed Roebuck, who relieved Russ
Meyer in the fifth after the Dod
ger starter was injured in a col
lision at first base, was the los
er. The Cardinals trounced the
Giants in both ends of a double
header, 9-2 and 7-2, and left the
world champions 17V games off
the pace, only one percentage
point ahead of the fifth-place
Redlegs. Southpaw Harvey Had
dix beat the Giants for the first
time this season in the opener de
spite homers by Whitey Lock
man and Don Mueller. Larry
Jackson ..was the winner in the
second game although he needed
relief in the seventh, a frame in
which Lockman hit his second
homer of the day. Stan Musial
smashed his 14th homer in the
opener off loser Johnny Anton
elli while Red Schoendienst and
Bill Virdon each homered for
St. Louis in the nightcap.

Bend's hustling Loggers, bet
ter able to use their opportuni
ties, pushed over runs in .the
first and seventh innings at the
fairgrounds ball yard here yes
terday for a 3 to 0 victory and a
series split in the Southern Ore
gon Baseball League with the
Medford Cheney Studs.
The Studs had taken a 6 to 5
decision from the Loggers Sat
urday night when First Base
man Jack Cooney broke up the
evening's entertainment with a
rousing three-base clout. He
capped a three - run rally by
driving in the tying and ' win
ning runs with the tremendous
swat.
By the week end spilt Bend
took over third spot alone in the
SOL standings. Medford dropped
into a three-way percentage
deadlock for the cellar position
with Grants Pass and Bandon
since Grants Pass defeated Ban
don 3 to 2 on Saturday night and
13 to 10 yesterday.
Drain rose into a tie for first
place with Coquille by nabbing
two week end scuffles from
Roseburg. The Black Sox were
victors 10 to 9 on Saturday and
3 to 2 on Sunday. Coquille had
a bye.
Lacked Punch
While the Studs were able to
surge out strong at the finish on
Saturday and while they got
plenty of men on base yester
day, they just couldn't muster
sufficient punch to get runs
across in the series finale. And
Pitcher Lowell Pearce, the Ore
gon State collegian, was too
strong at the finish to give the
Studs hope yesterday for a Sat
urday night repeat.
Both Pearce and Hurler Terry
Maddox of the Studs were
whacked for seven hits. Medford
got five off Pearce in the first
three innings but couldn't turn
them into counters. The Loggers
collected two bingles in each of
the innings they scored.
Twink Pederson, who hit
three for five for the afternoon,
tagged home for first marker
and drove in the other two. He
led off the first inning with a
double, went to third base on
Tommy Bowen's flyout and
dashed home on Phil Jantze's
single. In the seventh canto Dan
Lovejoy and Chuck Christenson
were safe on an error and field
er's option, respectively, and
Pearce sacrificed them to second
and third bases. Pederson's hit
was the only one needed for the
runs although Bowen followed
him with a single.
13 Men Stranded
Medford left 13 men on base
during the game, two each in the
six innings and one in another.
Pearce retired the side" in order
in the eighth and ninth. Bend
had seven stranded.
The Studs had a great oppor
tunity in the sixth inning when
Jack Fassett singled and Derald
Wooton walked. Then Ron Maur
er, appearing for the first time
this week end in a Stud uni
form, tried to duck away from
a pitch. The ball hit his bat and
fell fair. Fassett was forced out
at third. Wooton was out next
trying to swipe third. Ed McCul
lough walked but Bob Selsor
forced Maurer for another put-
out at third.
In the first inning a double
play spoiled Stud chances. In
other frames lead runners were
forced out or one or two outs
were recorded before Medford
men got on base.
Pearce whiffed seven batters
and walked five. Maddox struck-
out three and gave four bases on
balls.
Fassett was beaned by a
Pearce pitch in the second in
ning but was able to continue in
the game after Larry Bigham
served as a courtesy runner.
Maddox Doubles
On Saturday night Medford
went into the final inning trail
ing 3 to 5. Chuck DeAutremont,
first man up for the Studs, was
safe at first base on a muff by
Second Baseman Tommy Bowen.
Then Terry Maddox lofted a
hard hit fly to deep left field.
It was good for a two-bagger and
DeAutremont tallied.

on the mound. Medford Twirler
Derald Wooten laid down a bunt
on Gehrman's fifth pitch. The
rap moved Maddox to third base
and Wooton was safe on First
Baseman Phil Jantzen's miscue.
Cooney then blasted his' sec
ond pitch from Gehrman far out
into right center field. Maddox
crossed the plate with the win
ning run and Wooton with his
own winning marker with no
one out.
4 Walks In Inning
The three-run surge in the
ninth made up for a similar
Bend spree in the sixth. Wooton
on the hill hurled seven-hit ball
against the Loggers and struck
out 11 batters. However, he gave
up seven walks. Four of the
bases on balls were in the sixth
canto. Bend used them along a
center field single by Curt Jant
ze and a squeeze bunt, hit to
collect its three counters and
take a 4 to 2 lead in the fracas.
The Loggers got one run in the
first inning on a walk, a sacri
fice by Bowen and a hit by. Phil
Jantze. Singles by Jack Fassett,
Bill McLean and Ed McCul
lough in the second frame en
abled Medford to catch up at 1
all. The Studs then went ahead
2 to 1 in the fourth ninning
when Qooney hit safely, stole
second base, got to third on Mc
Lean's flyout and crossed the
plate on Howard Morris's
grounder over second base.
Run Forced Over
After their big sixth the Log
gers made the count 5 to 2 in the
seventh on singles by Bowen and
Hunt's groundout. But Medford
also got a seventh inning counter
when DeAutremont walked and
Maddox and Cooney singled and
Fassett got a base on balls to
force over the score.
In addition to providing the
vital tallies, Cooney was the
heavy hitter for the night with
three for five. Maddox and Phil
Jantze cracked two for four. The
Studs got 10 of their 11 hits off
Duff, who walked five and fan
ned six.
Fassett and DeAutremont,
along with Maurer, are the most
recent Studs' acquisitions. Maur
er is an ex-Illinois Valley high
and ex-Southern Oregon college
athlete. He has been catching
previously this year with Fresno
of the California League. Fresno
is a farm of the St. Louis Cardi
nals by whom Maurer was sign
ed about two years ago.
