bacifc. in first place today after
a t4 victory over the San
Frafccisco Giants.
Hank Aaron and Wes Cov

Tuesday night with two hom

Dick Hyde
Saves Two
By United Press International
Give Dick Hyde, a "little
pitcher" doing a big job, a
major share of the credit for
the Washington Senators sur
prising showing.
A 5-11 submarine ball pitch
er, 29-year-old Hyde is de
veloping into one of the Amer
ican league's ace relievers.
He saved both games of Tues
day night's twi-night double
header as the Senators beat
the Kansas City A's 5-4 and
10-9.
Hyde's record is an impres
sive 3-1 but his value to the
club is even greater. All told,
he's appeared in 13 games
and the Senators have lost
only three of them a pretty
fair indication of a sound re
lief pitcher.
