Mike McCormick 4-5 is scheduled to open on the hill for San Francisco against either Bob Purkey or Giant killer Don Newcombe of the Reds. The Giants gained an 8-8 standoff on their recent road trip, not counting a 3-1 loss to Minneapolis of the Amer ican association Monday night. The Eastern swing was cost ly for the Giants in more ways than one. They failed to gain much ground on Milwaukee, although the Braves have now dropped eight of their last 12 starts; and pitcher Jack Sanf ord suffered a smashed hand that may keep him out of action until next week. Milwaukee dropped a 4-0 decision to Los Angeles- Mon day night, enabling the Giants to pick up half a game. A leaky defense against Phila delphia Sunday cost the Gi ants a pair of games and an excellent chance to overtake the faltering Braves.
