Susce Wins for Red Sox in 1 -Hit
Showing Against Father's Team
By FRED DOWN
United Press Sports Writer
The most rabid baseball fan
In Kansas City could forgive
Coach George (Good Kid) Susce
today if he's bursting his but
tons with pride.
The Boston Red Sox stretched
the Athletics' latest losing streak
to nine games with a 6-0 victory
Wednesday niaht and it was
none other than the coach's 23
year-old son, George Susce Jr.,
who was the chief villain. Susce
Jr., a strong-armed right hander.
yielded a leadoff single to Vic
Power and then hurled no-hit
ball for the remainder of the
game.
The victory enabled the on
rushing Red Sox to move within
a game of the third-place Cleve
land Indians, who lost to the
Washington Senators, 6-4, and
again tightened the American
League race. The second-place
Chicago White Sox advanced
to within two games of first
place with an 8-6 triumph over
the New York Yankees.
But the drama of the night
was unfolded in Kansas City.
Susce Jr. had compiled a 4-3
mark for the Red Sox but Man
ager Mike Higgins never before
had pitched him against the Ath
letics. Around the league, fans
and players wondered how the
young pitcher would react when
he finally was called upon to
pitch against his father s team.
Dad Watches From Bullpen
A 14-game winner for Louis
ville last season, Susce Jr. turn
ed in his first big league shutout
while his father watched the
progress of the game from the
bullpen. The 47-year-old coach,
who groomed his son to be a
ball player, played for five
major league teams but caught
a total of 146 games in eight
seasons.
It was the first time Susce
Sr. had seen his son pitch in a
major league game, but he was
so busy in the bullpen 412 feet
from the plate that he only saw
him briefly. The young pitcher's
-mother, brother, and sister were
in the stands, however, and got
a much better look.
The Red Sox, who have won
18 of their last 23 games, knock
ed out Arnold Portocarrero with
lour runs in the second inning
and added two more runs in
the third. National League cast
off Grady Hatton contributed
a single to the second-inning
rally and a triple in the third
frame.
Senators Beat Indians
The Senators scored four un
earned runs off Early Wynn in
the third inning and won their
fifth straight game. Eddie Yost's
home run and Joe Valdivielso's
triple were the big blows of the
game for the Senators, who now
have a 7-6 season edge over

Cleveland. The Indians whipped
them 18 times in 22 meetings
en route to the pennant last
season.
The White Sox routed Bob
Turley in the first inning and
built up an 8-0 lead over the
Yankees in three frames. Dick
Donovan, who is fairly certain
to be the first rookie to win
20 games for the White Sox in
54 years, was knocked out when
the Yankees scored five runs in
the seventh inning but got
credit for the win to make his
record 13-2.
Hal Smith drove in four runs
and Dave Pope two to lead the
Baltimore Orioles to a 6-3 win
over the Detroit Tigers in the
other A.L. game.
Newcomb Wins 16ih
In the National League, Don
Newcombe won his 16th game
behind a five-homer barrage that
included two each by Duke
Snider and Don Zimmer-as the
Brooklyn Dodgers whipped the
Chicago Cubs, 10-1. The Cubs
snapped a nine-game losing
streak in the nightcap with a
5-3 verdict. With 33 homers in
92 games, Snider is three games
ahead of Babe Ruth's record
1927 pace.

Fuentes Victor
In Dreary Fight
New York-(U.R) It was a
split decision all right, but no
one even suggested today a re
turn bout be t w e e n welter
weight contenders Ramon Fuen
tes and Hector Constance, so
dreary was their TV-radio 10
rounder Wednesday night.
Fuentes of Los Angeles won
the chopped verdict largely be
cause he staggered young Con
stance of Trinidad, B.W.I. in
the ninth round of their very
dull performance at Madison
Square Garden.
Harry Markson, managing di
rector of the International Box
ing Club explained today, "it
was an unexpectedly unfortu
nate combination of styles. Each
had made exceptionally good
fights against other opponents."
Sammy Richman, Constance's
American representative, said,
"I thought Hector won, but he's
a stubborn boy who wouldn't
follow instructions from the cor
ner. He tried to beat Fuentes at
close quarters instead of keep
ing away from him."
Fuentes said, "he wouldn't
fight in the open, so I just kept
going into him."

straight triumphs with 5-0 and
4-2 wins over the Cincinnati
Redlegs. Saul Rogovin pitched
a five-hitter for his first NXi.
win in the opener and Curt
Simmons went the route for
his sixth victory in the second
game. The Phillies moved into
fifth place, a half game behind
the fourth-place Cubs.
Pinch-hitter Preston Ward's
three-run seventh-inning homer
gave the Pittsburgh Pirates a
4-3 win over the Milwaukee
Braves, who have dropped three
in a row while Tom Poholsky
breezed behind a 15-hit attack
that swept the Cardinals to a
9-2 verdict over the New York
Giants in the other National
League game.

Pace-setting Seattle and runner-up
San Diego square off to
night in the opener of the first
real "crucial" series of the Pa
cific Coast League season.
Freddie Hutchinson's Rain
iers return home one game out
in front of the Padres as a re
sult of winning eight of their 11
games in Sacramento and Oak
land. San Diego's erstwhile lead
ers, meanwhile, won only four
of their last 11.
Both teams will use their win
ningest pitchers in the opener' of
the five game series tonight. Se
atle will start Elmer Singleton
(13-8) against San Diego's Eddie
Erautt (11-6).
The Rainiers wound up with a
4-1 series victory over the Oaks
last night when Joe Ginsberg
homered in the seventh inning
for a 5-4 win. San Diego was
idle and . thus dropped a full
game behind Seattle.
