MiHwaukee freezing Along;
Yanks Feel! Like Sad Sacks
By MILTON RICHMAM
United Press International
Funny game, this baseball.
The Braves are leading by
eight games and feel like
shooins; the Yankees lead by
and feel like sad-sacks
but they'll have to go out
and practice today whether
they like it or not.
Everything is hunky-dory
with the breezing Braves, who
ran their winning streak to
seven games Sunday by
sweeping a pair from the
Phillies, 5-1 and 4-1.
On the other hand, every
thing is all fouled up with
the Yankees, who dropped a
6-5 decision to the Red Sox
and now have lost eight of
San Francisco took over
their last 11 starts. Since Aug.
2, their lead has shrunk from
17 games.
The schedule says the Yanks
have today off. Casey Sten
gel says differently He called
a practice session for 10
o'clock in the morning.
"I don't know whats-a-mat-ter,"
he grumbled, "But I'm
gonna find out in a hurry."
Sox Continue Streak
Anyway, the second-place
White Sox, still entertaining
notions of catching the Yan
kees, won their fifth straight
by beating the Indians, 3-2.
Baltimore nipped Washing
ton 2-1. and Kansas City de
feated Detroit, 4-1.

The Pacific Coast league,
embroiled in one of the tight
est pennant races in its his
tory, headed into the last
three week of play today with
little likelihood that any of
the three clubs still in title
contention will break away
from the pack before the sea
son ends.
Both Phoenix and San
Diego, the loop's first two
clubs, blew their chance to
gain on one another Sunday
by dropping double-headers to
a pair of second division
teams.
Cellar-dwelling Seattle,
which had lost 14 straight
through Friday, rose up to
whack the Giants twice, 4-2
and 7-6, marking the Rainiers'
third straight win over the
league - leaders. San Diego's
Padres stumbled in their ef
fort to overtake the Giants
by dropping 5-3 and 3-1 de
cisions to sixth-place Spokane
as the California club remain
ed two games out of first.

home runs and a 12-1 victory
in the opener, but the Cana
dians came back to win the
second game, 8-6 and salvage .
the finale of their four-game
series. The split moved Van
couver to within a game of
the Padres and three of the
Giants.
In other games, Salt Lake
and Sacramento split a pair,
the Bees winning the seven
inning opener, 2-1, and the So
lons taking the nightcap, 13-4.
. Eddie Basinski singled
home the winning run with
two out in the eighth inning
of the second game at Seattle
to give the Rainiers a sweep
for the day. The home club
had knotted the score at 6-6
with a two-run burst in the
seventh to send the contest
into overtime.
Zanni Defeated
The Rainiers won the open
er behind the six-hit pitching
of Rookie Claude Osteen, who
had a shutout going for 8 2-3
innings. The win gave Osteen
a 2-3 record, while saddling
Phoenix starter Dom Zanni
with his ninth setback against
13 victories. Seattle won the
series, three games to one.
Spokane led all the way in
the first game against San
Diego to give Art Fowler, the
first of three Indian pitchers,
his 13th win of the season.
Hisel Patrick, who retired the
11 batters he faced, came on
in the sixth to put down a
Padre rally and preserve the
win for Fowler.
Connie Grob smashed a
two-run homer in the second
inning of the abbreviated
nightcap to win his own game.
Grob allowed the Padres only
three hits. The clubs split the
series, two games each.
At Portland, the Mounties
scored single runs ' in the
sixth and seventh innings of
the finale to win their only
tilt of the four-game set with
the Beavers, who now have
taken nine of the last 11
games. The Canadians collect
ed 14 safeties to Portland's
10. Bob Di Pietro, George
Freese and Frank Kellert all
homered for the losers.
The Beavers scored eight
runs in the first three innings
of the opener, then coasted to
an easy victory as John Buz-
hardt scattered 10 hits to pick
up his sixth win. Di Pietro
smashed a pair of four-bag
gers, while Kellert, Alex Co
midas and Jack Littrell hit
one apiece.
George Perez turned in a
three-hitter in the first game
at Salt Lake to give the Bees
their second win the last 10
starts. Jim McDaniel homered
for the winners.
Sacramento retaliated with
a 17-hit attack in the nightcap
to take the series, three games
to one. Pete Mesa went the
route for the Solons, scatter
Covington.

over Chicago. Cincinnati
swept a doubleheader from
Pittsburgh, 4-3 and 7-5, while
Los Angeles earned a split
by taking the nightcap, 9-3,
after St. Louis won the open
er, 12-7.
Juan Pizarro's four -hit
pitching and Frank Torre's
grand-slam homer off Don
Cardwell gave the Braves
their opening-game victory,
and in the nightcap, Lew Bur
dette hurled a five-hitter for
his 13th triumph. Wes Cov
ington hit his 22nd homer and
also scored the decisive run
on Johnny Logan's perfect
squeeze bunt in the fourth in
ning. r
Six home runs were hit in
the Red Sox-Yankee game but
perhaps even more significant
were the three singles and a
double by Ted Williams that
sent his average up to .316.
Homer Wins Game
Earl Battey's eighth-inning
homer off Jim Grant broke a
2-2 tie between the White
Sox and Indians. Lefty Billy
Pierce gave up nine hits in
posting his 13th victory.
Connie Johnson of the
Orioles hurled a three-hitter
and produced a sacrifice fly
that brought in the winning
run in the fifth inning. Brooks
Robinson slid home with the
deciding run after second
baseman Herb Plews of the
Senators caught Johnson's
pop-up in short right field.
The four-hitter pitching of
ex-reliefer Bob Grim and a
three-run homer "by Harry
Chiti helped the A's sweep
their three-game series from
the Tigers.
A total of seven home runs
were hit in the Giants-Cubs
game but it was Willie Mays
21st homer with two on in
the fourth that proved the pay
off blow. The wallop gave
San Francisco an 8-4 lead
after which Ernie Banks clout
ed his 38th homer with one
on in the sixth. Bobby Thom
son hit two homers.
Pirate Hopes Drop
The two victories by the
Redlegs dropped the Pirates
into third place, nine games
off the pace, and just about
made them forget any pos
sible pennant notions they
may have entertained.
Jerry Lynch of the Redlegs,
a one-time Pirates, was the
man who hurt Pittsburgh
most. His third hit in the
opener was a ninth-inning
single that drove in the win
ning run and he collected two
more hits in the finale, in
cluding a two-run homer.
Stan Musial had four hits
while Ken Boyer and Del
Ennis each drove in three
runs to help the Cards beat
the Dodgers in the opener.
Danny McDevitt, recently re
called from the minors, held
the Cards to six hits, in the
second game.
Roy To Be
Riled Texan
In Tussle
BY ROY HARRIS
(Written For UPI)
Arrowhead Springs, Calif.,
(ITD Some folks have been
saying I'm not "mean"
enough, but I promise you'll
see a riled up Texan in the
fight with Floyd Patterson!
Floyd Patterson.
I want the heavyweight ti
tle, want it bad. And more
than that I guess I've got to
prove some things to the so
called "experts" who have
made me such an underdog.
I am certain that I can lick
Patterson and take the cham
pionship back to Cut'n Shoot.
Ready For 15 Rouads
' I've trained for the full dis
tance, but I certainly can win
it sooner. I know I have the
punch to knock out Patterson
or any other man alive if I
land it right.
I think my right hand will
give Patterson a lot of trouble.
It is what's called in the box
ing trade "sneaky" fast. I
think Patterson is open for
body punches from what I've
seen of him on television, and
I'm sure I can beat him to the
punch if he tries that "ga
zelle" business leaping off
his feet to throw long ones.
Take What Comes
Actually, though, I'm not
going into this fight with any,
hard and fast strategy. He's
been a long time between
bouts, and he may have a
tered his style, although it is
pretty hard to make any real
big change in the way you've
learned to fight.
But it is better to adjust .to
the way your opponent fights.
Then you can't get into at trap
when he doesn't do what you
expect.
People ask if I'm losing any
sleep thinking about the fight.
I can honestly say I've never
slept so much or so well in my
life as I have in the training
camp.
Oh, I think and plan a little
bit when I first lie down, but
then I just "knock him out"
and concentrate on getting to
sleep. It seems I never have
much trouble.
Of course, you can win 'em
all when you're only mind
fighting. But I think I can
make it come out the same
way when I get Patterson into
that ring for real.

ever, none of these have been
league workhorses and have
pitched far fewer innings than
