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. Briggs had a 15-15
record with Sacramento in 1955
but was only 5-5 with Los An
geles last season.
In 1954, Briggs had a 20-8
record with the Salem Senators.
Webfoots Down
Bearcats Twice
Eugene U.R) The Oregon
Webfoots handed Willamette a
double baseball defeat Tuesday,
8-2 and 8-6.
Stan Dmochowsky became the
first Oregon pitcher to go the
distance this year in the first
game as he held Willamette to
four hits and fanned nine.
Coach Don Kirsch used a dif
ferent lineup in each game with
19 players taking part in the
twin bill.
HOCKEY
NATIONAL LEAGUE
Montreal iU.R) The Mont
real Canadiens, powered by two
cluch playoff victories in their
own forum, are ready to move
into Boston Thursday with a 2-0
lead over the Bruins in defense
of their Stanley Cup hockey
title.
The flexible Canadiens came
up with "an oldtime playoff
game Tuesday night to edge
the Brums, 1-0, in the second
game following a spectacular
wide-open first game Saturday
in which Maurice (Rocket) Rich
ard scored four times.
The National league champion
Brooklyn Dodgers snapped a
four-game losing streak when
they whipped the Milwaukee
Braves, 54, with a four-run ral
ly in the ninth inning. A record
crowd of 9.147 at Tulsa, Okla.,
saw Mr. Charley Neat's bases-
filled double break up the con
test after Warren Spahn in one
of his few appearances against
the Dodgers, yielded only three
hits and one run over the first
six games.
Al Worthington and Joe Mar
goneri collaborated in a five
hitter as the New York Giants
downed the Cleveland Indians,
4-2. 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.
Rookie Paces Cubs
Cal Neeman, a rookie who
still hopes to beat out Ray Katt
or Charley Silvera for the Chi
cago Cubs, regular catching job,
drove in four runs with a homer
and two doubles in an 8-3
triumph over the Baltimore Or
ioles. 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. Jones was the
worst offender, yeilding five
hits and seven walks and hit
ting two men in five frames.
Andy Carey bopped an eight
inning homer that enabled the
New York Yankees to beat the
Milwaukee Braves' Jacksonville
farm club of the Sally league.
5-4. Micky Mantle also homered
for the Yankees and kept his
spring average at .350.
George Brunet and Ken John
son, optioned out by Kansas
City only this week, pitched seven-hit
ball as the Little Rock
Travelers embarrased the par
ent Athletics, 5-4.

NO GAME TODAY Can the opening day of the 1957
baseball season be next week? If so, Mother Nature had
better bring out Old Man Sun to help melt the six-inches
of snow in the Cleveland Indians Stadium. If the snow
remains, this fan may be the only one to show up for
opening day.

AMERICAN LEAGUE
Cleveland U.R) Versatile
Ron Ingram, who doesn't care
where he plays so long as he
plays, has the Cleveland Barons
off and winging in pursuit of
their sixth American Hockey
League Calder Cup.
Ingram, an aggressive but un
assuming workman on skates,
slapped in the decisive overtime
goal Tuesday night to give the
Barons a 2-1 victory over the
Rochester Americans in the
opening game of the AHL's best-
of-seven-playoff finale.
