EIGHT MEDrORP (OREGON) Drysdale Fastball Brings Ninth Win By Beating Giants By TIM MORIARTY United Press Sports Writer Long Don Drysdale, who cele brated his 21st birthday only two weeks ago, also has come of age as a major league pitcher. . The 6-foot 4-inch right hander was less than two years out of high school when he joined the Brooklyn Dodgers last season but still managed to win five games, four against the hated New York Giants. With that one year of experi ence behind him, the Dodgers predicted big things for the lan ky Californian this spring and young Don is living up to his notices. Ninth of Year Although he allowed 10 hits, including four to Willie Mays, Drysdale fast-balled his way to a 5-2 victory over his favorite New York "cousins" Monday night in the only National league action. It was his ninth triumph of the season, tying him with Don Newcombe and Johnny Podres for the most vic tories on the Dodger staff. Drysdale's record against the Giants now stands at 6-1. He never has lost to them as a start er, suffering his lone defeat dur ing a relief stint at the Polo Grounds earlier this season. However, Mays almost ruined that gaudy record with another of his one-man gang perforn ances. Willie was involved in an automobile accident only hours before the game but proved he was okay in the third inning when he tagged Drysdale for a two-run homer that put the Giants ahead 2-1. Hits Three Singles May also picked up three singles along the way so when he came up with two men on and two out in the ninth inning, Dodger Manager Walt Alston yanked Drysdale in favor of Clem Labine, who retired Wil lie on an infield grounder.
