EIGHT MEDFORD (CREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday, April 10, 1957 Redlegs Top Senators With Homer Barrage Br FRED DOWN United Press Sports Writer Warren Hacker, who was plagued by the home run ball for many years, is discovering why Cincinnati Redleg pitchers call it their best friend. Hacker, who won only three games for the Chicago Cubs last season, chalked up his fourth victory of the Grapefruit league campaign Tuesday when the Redlegs unleashed a barrage of lix homers to beat the Washing ton Senators, 9-7. The Redlegs have walloped a total of nine h n m p r hehind Hacker this spring and scored 36 runs in the five games he s pitched. Wallv Post blasted two horn ers and Gus Bell, Ted Klusze- wski, Frank Robinson and Jerry Lynch hit one each as the Red legs made it 40 round-trippers in exhibition games. That's a pace of 212 over 154 game stretch compared to their record-tying total of 221 last season. Cubs Send Briggs To Portland Club Glendale, Calif. U.R) Johnny Briggs, a fast-balling righthand er, Tuesday was optioned to the Portland Beavers Dy tne K.ni cago Cubs.

Worthington allowed both Cleveland runs and four hits in the first seven innings. Ray Narleski, working for the first time since he suffered a broken finger on March 13, pitched two hitless innings for the Indians.

The Chicago White Sox made only five hits but colected 14 walks to take a 6-5 decision ov er the St. Louis Cardinals. Sam Jones, Bob Mabe and Jim Davis were the pitching culprits for the Cardinals.
