Newspaper Page TextEIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Monday, April 22, 1957 Braves, Chisox Keep Unbeaten Pace in Major League Rivalry By FRED DOWN TTnittd Pretf Sperti Writar The 35-year-old wings of Jim TTiJeon and Warren Spahn en abled the Chicago White Sox and Milwaukee Braves to remain un o beaten today and soar into un disputed possession of first places in the major league pennant races. Tt'ilson, who turned 35 on Feb. 21, pitched the White Sox to their fourth straight victory hen he outduelled ex-Yankee Tom Morgan in a 1-0, 10-inning thriller over Kansas City Sun day while Spahn, who'll cele brate his 36th birthday Tuesday, scattered nine hits in the Braves' 3-1 win over the Cincinnati Red tegs. . The White Sox took over the top rung in the A.L. when the Boston Red Sox dealt the New York Yankees their first set back, 5-4, and the Braves achieved a similar pinnacle in the N.L., when the previously unbeaten Brooklyn Dodgers split a doubleheader with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Wilson Comes Clos Wilson, who pitched a no-hitter in 1954, made a bid for his second classic with a perfect games for seven innings and a no-hitter for eight. Hector Lopez finally broke the hitless spell in the ninth and the Athletics col lected two other hits. Wilson struck out eight and walked two for his first win. Pinch-hitter Sherm Lollar. who knocked in five runs on Saturday, delivered a sacrifice Cy in the 10th to send home rookie Jim Landis with the de cisive tally. Morgan, who pitch ed a four-hitter on opening day, yielded only one hit in the first nine innings and was touched for only three in all. Spahn settled down after a shakey four frames to hold the Redlegs to one hit in the last five innings and chalk up his second win of the year. Del Crandall singled home two runs in the fourth and Hank Aaron doubled and Joe Adcock singled for Mil waukee's other run in the eighth. The loss was the fourth straight for the disappointing Redlegs. Homer Barraga Frank Thomas, Paul Smith, Dick Groat and Bob Skinner walloped homers as the Pirates beat the Dodgers, 6-3, in their opener but five runs in the sec ond inning enabled the N.L. champions to breeze to a 7-4 de cision in the nightcap. Don New combe was routed b ythe Bucs in the first game, but Clem Labine relieved 20-year-old Don Drys dale to save the nightcap. - Jack Dittmer, ex-Brave second baseman, singled with the bases filled in his first A.L. appear ance to give the Detroit Tigers a 3-2 victory over the Cleveland Indians and the Baltimore Orioles beat the Washington Senators, 11-9, in the other A.L. games. The Senators led the second game, 2-1, after five inn ings when a power failure shut off the Griffith Stadium lights and the umpires asked A.L. President Will Harridge for a ruling on the "contest." Two other N.L. doubleheaders wound up in splits. Sam Jones struck out 11 of his former team mates as the St. Louis Cardinals gained a 6-3 triumph after the Chicago Cubs won their opener, 5-3, in 11 innings and the Phila- MEDFORDvWTRIBUNE SIPaDHRTTS Ed Bingham Hurls 226-9V2 With Spear By UNITED PRESS University of Oregon won 11 of 15 events Saturday to whip Washington's track and field team 85-47 at Eugene and re main unbeaten.

(International) Vancouver Stretches Lead in PCL; Padres Nab 2 From Beavers By SCOTT BAILLIE United Press Sports Writer No, Dad, you haven't got your newspaper upside down. The Vancouver Mounties moved fur ther ahead in the Pacific Coast league race today and it hard ly looked like a fluke. Manager Charley Metro's club, which was brushed off as a natural for the cellar by just about everybody this spring, swept a double header from Sac ramento Sunday to post its 8th win in 10 games. The scores were i-0 and 7-0 as Mel Held and southpaw Art Ceccarelli turned in a pair of impressive three-hitters. As for the silent Sacs, they have been blanked for 22 straight innings since getting a pair of unearned tallies on Sat urday night. The teams play again tonight to make up a rained out contest. In other games, San Francis co divided with Seattle to re main a game aid a half off the pace behind the Mounties when they host this week. San Diego downed Portland twice and Los Angeles won two more from slumping Hollywood. Held Had Help Held had little trouble with Sacramento in the first game and got all the help he needed in the fourth inning when Joe Frazier homered off Gene Bear den to help send the veteran left hander down to defeat. The Mounties then combed Roger Osenbaugh for 10 hits in the seven-inning nightcap. Cec carelli held Sacramento to one pure single by Russ Rosburg and a pair of scratch hits. Kal Segrist homered for Vancouver in the third with a man aboard. Seattle and San Francisco took turns belting each other. The Rainiers won the first game, 10-4, while exploding for seven runs in the seventh in ning. Just about everything hap pened in that frame which saw winning pitcher Marion Fricano squeeze in a run with a bunt then race all the way to sec ond base for a two-bagger when the bag was left unguarded. Roy Tinney, the first of three Seals to toil, got the loss. Bob Thollander, . former Uni versity of San Francisco, star, then pitched and batted the Seals to a 6-1 win in the night cap. Thollander held Seattle to four hits, drove in one run with a double and singled in two more. Angels in Third Place Los Angeles boomed into third place by taking a pair from arch-rival Hollywood to sweep the five game series in the Twinks' park. The Seraphs scored 10 runs in the eighth in ning of the opened while lacing Hollywood, 15-5. Steve Bilko accounted for six runs with two homers, one coming with the bases loaded and the other with a man on. Dick Stuart hit one for the Stars when it was too late. A total of nine pitchers worked in this one. The second game went two extra frames before Los Ange les won it, 3-1, on a two run splurge. Bob Borkowski singled in one counter and Bilko scored another on Stuart's bobble. Stu- Light Failure Brings Problem To AL Officials Chicago (U.R) American league president Will' Harridge promises to dig up an answer to day to baseball's biggest riddle so far in 1957 what happens when the lights go out? Everybody was left in the dark at Washington's Griffith stdium Sunday when- a short circuit prevented eight arc light towers from functioning. The incident occurred when um pires ordered the lights turned on at the end of five innings of the second game of a Senators Baltimore Orioles twin bill, with the Senators leadings, 2-1. The umpires waited an hour and, when nobody could fix the lights, called the game. But what happens now is the game fin ished or isn't it? Umpires Joe Paparella, Ed Hurley, Ed Runge, and Frank Umont admit they don't know. They said this was the first time such an incident has occur red. There doesn't seem to be anything in the rules that cov ers it and there is no such thing as a "suspended game" in the American league. Harridge, at his office here, said, "We don't want to make any official statement until we get the full facts of exactly what happened and what made the lights go out. However, we ex pect to have a decision ready today." art also fanned three more times in the game to bring his total up to 22 in 11 games. San Diego beat Portland, 8-5 and 4-0, on more sharp pitch ing. Dolan took over for Pete Mesa in the opener and gave up two hits as the Pads rallied to win. "V Daley blanked the last place Beavers with a five-hitter and drove in two runs himself in the finale with a double. He also stayed on after being hit by a liner in the ribs off the bat of Frank Ernaga in the seventh.
