SPORTS
BY MILTON RICHMAN
United Press International
Ted Williams will, be 40 by
the end of the month and
quite possibly the American
league batting champ again by
the end of September.
Williams, more or less lying
back in the weeds all season,
suddenly is sprouting a full
blown .311 average only 24
points below the .335 figure of
Boston teammate Pete Run
nels, who leads the circuit.
Ted's current mark is a far
cry from the .388 mark he led
the league with last year, but
before the season started he
promised he'd hit "around
.340" and he generally comes
pretty close to the mark.
He could make it the way
he's hitting now. He blasted
his 20th homer and a single
to drive in three runs Thurs
day and help the Red Sox
beat the Senators, 8-4, for
their fifth straight victory.
His homer was nothing to
spit at either. It traveled ap
proximately 500 feet and
landed about 30 rows up in
the right field bleachers. Roy
Sievers belted his 31st homer
and Jim Lemon his 23rd for
Washington, both blows com
ing off Frank Sullivan, who
hurled an eight-hitter for his
ninth victory.
It was the only game sched
uled in the American league.
Braves Increase Lead
The Milwaukee Braves
stretched their National
league lead to seven games
with a 3-2 triumph over the
Pittsburgh Pirates, while St.
Louis crushed San Francisco,
12-1; Philadelphia edged Cin-l
cinnati, 3-2, and Los Angeles
defeated Chicago, 3-1.
Southpaw Warren Spahn,
shooting for a 20-game season
for the eighth time in his ca
reer, limited the Pirates to
seven hits in chalking up his
15th victory.
Bob Friend blanked the
Braves until the seventh when
they scored all their runs with
the aid of Eddie Mathew's
two-run homer.
Sam Jones scored his ninth
victory with a four-hit effort
against the Giants while the
Cards were pounding out 13
hits, including a home run by
Wally Moon. The Giants com
mitted four errors.
Out Of Race
It marked the ninth loss for
the Giants in thier last 10
games and virtually finished
them as far as pennant conten
tion is concerned.
Don Cardwell recalled from
the minors not so long ago,
scored his first victory of the
year for the Phillies with a
nine-hit effort against the
Redlegs. The victory moved
the Phillies into the first di
vision for the first time since
Eddie Sawyer . took over as
manager from Mayo Smith on
July 22. !
Sandy Koufax of the Dodg
ers struck out 10 Cub batters
and was credited with his
ninth win although he needed
help from Johnny Klippstein
in the ninth. Klippstein took
over with two on and one out,
and after rain caused a 20
minute delay he got Lee Walls
to hit into a game-ending dou
ble play. The Dodgers scored
Rodgers Provide
Spark as Phoenix
Giants Clip Suds
By GENE BRYANT
' United Press International
Andre . Rodgers, a former
cricket player from the Ba
hamas, belted his 29th home
run of the year and took part
in four of five Phoenix
double-plays Thursday to lead
the front-running Giants to
a 9-4 win over Seattle.
The Pacific Coast league's
top hitter, although he played
his first baseball game only
four years ago, Rodgers came
up with a two-run blast in the
third inning, then spearhead
ed the tight Phoenix defense
through the first seven frames.
The Rainiers broke through
for two runs in each of the
last two innings but relief
pitcher Joe Margoneri came
in to put out the fire.
Bobby Prescott ' slammed
his homer for the winners,
while Willie McCovey con
nected for his 11th. Eddie Ba
sinski homered for Seattle.
Vancouver Slips Back
Second -place Vancouver
split a pair with Portland to
dip a full game behind the
Giants. The Mounties coasted
to a 5-1 victory behind George.
Bamberger's six-hit pitching
in the seven-inning opener,
but dropped the nightcap, 6-3,
as the Beavers came up with
three runs in both the fifth
and sixth innings.
Jack Spring, who made his
professional start in Spokane,
turned in a brilliant PCL de
but at the eastern Washington
city Thursday as he held the
hometown Indians to only
three safeties while pitching
San Diego to a 5-0 win. Spring
allowed only one Spokane
runner to reach as far as
third base, while striking out
four and giving up three
walks.
Salt Lake withstood a Sac;
ramento upsurge in the late
innings to shade the Solons,
6-5, in the other PCL game.
Jim McDaniels led the Bees
with a two-run triple and a
solo homer in the sixth, his
22nd of the season.
Bamberger Nears Record
Bamberger's victory in the
first game at Portland was
his seventh straight, giving
him 13 wins against seven de
feats. The Mountie right
hander also ran his 'consecu
tive walkless innings to 54,
ten short of the PCL record
set by Julio Bonetti of Los
Angeles in 1939. George
Freese hit his 25th homer for
the only run off Bamberger.
In the second tilt, reliever
Ed Mayer limited the Can
adians to only four hits from
the second frame until the
ninth, when Bob Garber came
in to retire the side after
Mayer grew wild. The Bea
vers collected nine belts to
Vancouver's eight.
Spring had it all his own
way at Spokane as his team
mates ripped into four Indian
pitchers for 11 hits. The
Padres scored twice in the
third, then added three more
in the .fifth while Spring
throttled Spokane at the
plate.
a pair of unearned runs on
Alvin Dark's fifth inning error.
