" STORES 214 Sooth Riverside Ave. Phone $P 2-7119 t n n ' Chicago White Sox Three Games From By FRED DOWN United Press International You'll have to excuse fun loving Bill Veeck if he's en joying a huge horse laugh at the expense of Frank Lane and the Cleveland Indians. Veeck's Chicago White Sox took some of the steam out of the front - running Indians Sunday when they scored 5-4 and 5-0 victories and complet ed a sweep of a three - game series. It was the first severe jolt the Indians have suffered this year and the two wins boosted the White Sox to within 1M games of the Am erican league lead. Billy Pierce and Early Wynn, each going all put this year to win back salary cuts, were the big heroes as the White Sox beat Veeck's ex- club for . the 1 sixth time in eight tries. Pierce went the distance in the 11-inning op ener while Wynn fired a four hitter to gain the 253rd vic tory of his major league car eer in the nightcap. The New York Yankees moved to within two games of the .500 mark by beating the Washington Senators, 6-3 and 3-2, the Boston Red Sox swept the Baltimore Orioles, 3-2 and 5-1, and the Detroit Tigers downed the Kansas City Ath letics, 7-6, in the other Ameri can league games. Braves Take Lead : In the National league, the Milwaukee Braves regained first place with 12-4 and 2-1 wins over the Cincinnati Reds, the Los Angeles Dodg ers shaded the San Francisco Giants, 3-2, the St. Louis Cardinals came back from a 10-9 loss to defeat the Chi cago Cubs, 8-7, and the Phil adelphia Phillies beat the Pittsburgh Pirates, 6-3. The Pirates led 6-4 when the nightcap was halted by cur few in the eighth inning. Bubba Phillips sent the Chicago - Cleveland opener into extra innings with an eighth-inning homer and then singled in the winning run in the 11th inning Pierce yielded 13 hits but left 12 In dians stranded. Wynn struck out five in the nightcap as he raised his record to 4-2. Nel son Fox hit safely in both games to stretch his hitting streak to 16 games and Del Ennis hit his first American league homer for the White Sox. Ryne Duren's brilliant re lief pitching saved the Yan kee opener for Whitey Ford and Norm Siebern delivered the game-winning hit in the second game when he doubled home Mickey Mantle in the 10th inning. Yogi Berra caught in both games and set a major league record by ap pearing in 148 straight games without making an error. The Yankees have won four out of their last five games. Buddin's Homer Decisive Don Buddin homered in the 10th inning to win the first game for the Red Sox and Frank Baumann hurled a six hitter in the night-cap. Relief pitcher Leo Kiely picked up his second win in the first game and Baumann delivered a liases-filled triple on his own behalf in the second game. The Tigers won their sev enth decision in eight games under Jimmy Dykes as Rocky Bridges, Charlie Maxwell and Lou Berberet hit homers. Rog er Maris drove in five runs with two homers for Kansas City. The Braves knocked the Reds out of first place, scor ing seven runs in the eighth inning of the opener and win ning the second game when Hank Aaron singled with the bases filled and two out in the ninth. Don McMahon's stout relief work saved Bob Rush's second victory in the first game and Carlton Willey outpitched Joe Nuxhall in the second. Aaron went 5-for-10 and knocked in three runs during the doubleheader. Podres wins Fourth Rip Repulski and Charlie Neal homered for the Dodg ers as Johnny Podres, helped by late-inning relief from Clem Laoine, won his fourth game. Felipe Alou accounted for both Giant runs when he homered - after a double by Willie Mays in the eighth in ning. Mike McCormick suf fered the loss. Earl Averill's 11th inning homer won the first game for the Cubs and a ninth-inning single by Curt Flood produc ed the decisive blow for the Cardinals in the nightcap. Gino Cimoli had four hits in the first game and three in the second. Manager Solly Hemus announced the Card inals were playing the first game under protest on the basis of what he thought was an obstruction of a Cardinal baserunner in the 10th in ning. Bobby Thomson drove in the six runs for the Cubs in the first game. Harry Anderson's two-run triple was the big blow for Philadelphia as Robin Rob erts won his third (am and Bob Friend, a 22-game win ner last season, lost his sixth straight decision of this sea son.

So what if his Yankees swept a doubleheader from the Senators, 6-3 and 3-2 in 10 innings? So what if the rest of the American league had "come back to him" and his Bronx Bombers now are only four games behind the first-place Cleveland Indians? "The big thing is that our hitting still is lousy," grum led the Yanir.ee manager, even after his team won its first doubleheader, of the season Sunday. "Oh, sure, the pitching was okay, but what's so great about us getting nine runs in two games? Never Heard of Walks "Everybody's leaving men o-i base, and I mean every body! You'd think my ball players never heard of a base on balls. The whole pack of 'em. "Now you take Elston How ard - and I like the fella -you know how many walks he got before yesterday? Just one, that's all. That guy can hit, lemme tell you, but one walk is all he got. "And it ain't only him, either.

MEDF05tIU3TRIBUNI Seattle Wins Fifth Extra-Inning Tiff; Portland Tips Bees By DON BECKER United Press International The Seattle Rainiers may not be going anywhere in the Pacific Coast league standings, but they have to be classed as one of the most exciting clubs in the league. The Rainiers' specialty is extra inning ball games. They've had seven of them so far this year and three of their last five games have gone into extra stanzas. Sunday, in what was scheduled as a seven-inning nightcap in their twin bill with San Diego, the Rainiers went 13 innings before they pulled it out on Jack Ditt mer's two-out single to win, 3-2. Friday the Rainiers went 21 innings before they beat Phoenix, 6-5. The Suds are good at the extra inning con tests, though Freddy Hutch inson, their manager, would probably be happier if they just played it straight and won 'em in regulation time. They've won five, lost one, and tied Salt Lake in an 18 inning affair, 1-1. Sacs Keep Lead Sacramento maintained its one game lead over the pack Sunday as it split a double header with Spokane. The In dians laced the Solons in the first game, 9-2, only to have the situation reversed in the second game, 11-4. San Diego won the first game from Seattle, 10-1, to gain a split in its twin bill and hold onto second place. Vancouver moved into third place on the strength of a pair of decisions over Phoe nix, 4-1, and 9-0. Portland edged Salt Lake, 2-1, in the only single contest of the day. Russ Heman, of recent no hit fame, was tagged with the loss in the extra-inning con test at Seattle. He came on in the sixth inning for Stan Pitula, and gave up a single run in the 10th and the losing marker in the 13th. Paul Pettit beat out an in field single with one out to start Heman on his downfall. Eddie Kazak blooped one into center, and then with two down, Dittmer socKea a ground single to right-field to chase across Pettit. Billy Kennedy, who came on for Seattle in the 11th inning, was credited with the win. Bilko Has Big Day Carl Greene racked up his third straight win as the Solons took the second game of their twin bill. He pitched eight hit ball and hit a home run. Bob Perry hit a three run homer for the Sacs and Steve Bilko of Spokane,' con nected for a circuit clout, Bilko collected six hits in eight trips during the after noon. Bilko, who got three hits, and Al Norris.'who collected his second home run in as many games, led the Indians to their 9-2 win in the first game. Connie Grob got his win, going all the way. Fred Besana of Vancouver won his fourth straight deci sion as he shut out Phoenix in their second game. He gave up five singles. Besana has given up just four earned runs in 41 innings for pitching this season. Joe Taylor socked a homer and Conine Johnson went all the way on the mound as the fast-rising Mounties grabbed the first game, 4-1. Bob DiPietro belted a 10th inning homer to give Portland its 2-1 win over Salt Lake. Dave Melton had earlier tied the scpre at 1-1 with a home run. Ken Johnson got the win and Bob Hall was tagged with his first loss of the season. Duck Nine Trips WSC .Pullman (UPD Oregon bounced back into the North ern division baseball race here Saturday by shutting out Washington State 2-0 behind the fine pitching of Hugh Springer and Jack Loy. Springer handcuffed the Cougars with only three hits, but needed help from Loy in the ninth to gain the win. Loy came on with two cougars on, and one out, and retired the next two batters to retire the threat. Oregon won the game in the fifth inning, when it scored two runs on three hits, and a squeeze bunt by pitcher Springer. The win gives the Ducks a record of 6-3. WSC has a 6-6 mark. Oregon State is first with 5-2 and Washington 7-3. DRYSDALE FINED San Francisco Los Ange les Dodgers manager Walter Alston confirmed today that pitcher Don Drysdale has been fined $50 for hitting Willie Mays of the Giants with a pitch, but wondered why Sam Jones hadn't been fined also for hitting Norm Larker. The incidents took place during Saturday's game here.
