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-

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.
