o o TWELVE MEDFORD (ORSGON) First Nq-Hitter of By Chicago White By MILTON RICHMAN United Press Sports Writer There was a short pause in the pennant races today to welcome Bob Keegan into the no-hit, no run fraternity and to let the Yankees ponder why they ever allowed him to get away to the White Sox. Keegan, a 36-year-old right hander, was cut loose by the Yankees five yes ago, written off as a chronic sore-arm case who would never make his mark in the majors. But he did it Tuesday night when he pitched the first no-hitter of the season to beat Washington, 6-0, in the nightcap of a twi-night double header. The Senators won the opener, 5-4. Keegan walked only two bat ters in fashioning his no-hitter, the first in regular major league season competition since Sal Maglie of the Dodgers turned in one against the Phillies last Sept. 25. The only no-hitter since then was Dou Larsen's perfect game against the Dodgers in the World Series last Oct. 8. Eighth Victory The victory was Keegan's eighth of the season and it was made possible by a five-run third inning, during which Larry Doby hit a two-run homer. Ed Fitzgerald's eighth inning hom er for the Senators broke up a 4-4 tie in the opener. Ralph Terry, another pitcher the Yankees let get away, came back to haunt them Tuesday night when he beat them, 1-0, for Kansas City. The A's col lected only two hits off Bob Turfey but those hits resulted in the only run of the game whenl Woody Held doubled in the fifth inning and scored on Tim Thompson's single. The loss was Turley's first against the Athletics, whom he had defeated 11 times previously during his career. It was also Kansas City's second victory over the Yanks this season in 18 meetings. Cleveland beat Boston, 5-4, and Detroit licked Baltimore, 5-1, in the other American league games. ' Braves Beat Pirates In the National league, first place Milwaukee rallied for two runs in the ninth to defeat Pitts burgh, 3-1; the Cardinals took two games from the Giants, 4-3 and 3-2; Brooklyn swept a pair from Cincinnati, winning the opener, 11-5, and the 12-inning nightcap, 6-5, while the Cubs .beat the Phillies, 5-2, in the 'nightcap after dropping the first -game, 2-1, in 10 innings. Early Wynn preserved Cleve land's victory when he halted a three-run rally in the ninth in ring by the Red Sox. Gene Wood !ling's eighth inning homer proved to be the deciding run. Ted Williams went hitless in two official trips to the plate, his patting average dropping to .389. . Jim Bunning of the Tigers struck out 10 batters and limited the Orioles to seven hits in notch ing his 15th victory. Ray Boone gave Bunning all the margin he needed with a two-run homer in the first inning and the Tigers added three more runs in the third off loser Skinny Brown. Spahn Wins 15th Southpaw Warren Spahn of the Braves held the Pirates to seven hits in gaining his 15th triumph. With the score tied 1-1, the Braves pushed over a pair of runs in the ninth on Red '.

Today they played Straight Clark of Philadelphia and David 'Harum of Miami, Fla., in a fea tured match while the seven surviving seeded teams were facing more so-so competition.

Ken Boyer and Eddie Kasko homered for St. Louis in the opener. Duke Snider's 33rd homer of the season and second of the night in the 12th inning decided the nightcap for Brooklyn after the Dodgers had capitalized on a fine relief job by Ed Roebuck to top the Redlegs in the first game.

This trip around, the honors belong to San Diego. The Pads defeated Vancouver, 2-1, while Hollywood was pushed back into fourth place as a result of a 5 to 0 beating it took at the hands of Sacramento. Padre winning hurler Bill Werle, starting his first game since coming from Portland, showed his teammates what he could do in walking one, while allowing nine hits. San Diego scored in the fourth and sixth on singles for its tallies. Van couver made one vain effort in the ninth when Owen Friend homer snapped the Cubs' six game winning streak as Curt Simmons and Dick Farrell of the Phils combined to pitch a three-hitter in the first game. Robin Roberts suffered his 17th setback in the nightcap when he was tagged for back-to-back homers by Ernie Banks and Jerry Kindall in a three-run fourth inning. Reliever Don El ston was the winning pitcher. LINESCORES: American League (1st Game) Washington 100 300 0105 11 2 Chicago 211 000 000-4 7 0 Hvde. Byerly (7) and Courtney, Fitzgerald (5th). Wilson.
