Birdie Tcbbetts made a bum
Kuess when he said Frank Robin
son would hit 15 homers this
year and it could be that the
canny Cincinnati skipper will
gladly eat that prediction com
plete with pennant trimmings.
Robinson connected for his
37th homer Tuesday nlaht and
the blow touched off a two-run
rally in the 10th inning that
gave the Redlegs a 4-2 victory
over Milwaukee and boosted
them within 2Vj flames of the
National League lead.

duel between Jcffcout and rookie
Taylor Phillips with two runs in
I the Fixtli but the Braves bounced
(back to tie the score with four
hits in the eighth. That's the way
! matters stood until Robinson
broke the tie In the 10th.
In the only other National
League game scheduled, veteran
Max Surkont of the Giants
hurled a six-hitter for a 7-2 vic-
! tory over the Phillies. Surkont
I and loser Harvey Haddix were

President Warran Giles of
the National League, openly
rooting fcr the triple lie.
wrota the scenario for what
could ba baseball's maddest
thriller since Frank Merriwall
was graduated from Yale,
If the triple tie should occur,
there would be a series on
the home grounds of the teams
involved as soon as it W4s
"physically possible." Giles,
by league rule, would be
designated to draw lots.
"I was trying not to be over
optimistic this spring when I
said that Robinson would hit 15
homers," Ttbbetts says, "but the
way things have turned out it
could ba the understatement of
th year."
Robinson's homer, off reliever
Irnie Johnson, left him only one
shy of the all-time rookie record
of 38 set by outfielder Wally
Berger of the Boston Braves in
1930. Following the homer, sin

game with a pulled leg muscle
after retiring the side in the

Dick Donovan chipped in with
a three-run homer.
Ted Lepcio's 14th homer to
lead off the 12th inning gave the
Red Sox a 7-6 victory over the
Senators. Lepcio's homer, his
ninth in Boston's last 18 games,
came off Bud Byerly, who had
retired 11 men in a row before
the wallop.
