, June 4, 1919 MAIL TRIBUNE, Mcdfr4, Or. Bees Record Ninth Win Over Beavers Unii4 Press International Cbuc Harmon's triple in the top of the 12th inning scored Ken Tothman from first base to give the Salt La&r City Bees a 3-2 Pacific Coast league win over Port land Tuesday night. The win 0,0r4d th current series in JJortlOnd at a win apiece and jg fait Lake's ninth win in J mfttnen with the Beavers Ofjiii season. Portland remained 4M r fourth place. Vinnki pitcher was Jim Umbricht gf the Bees, who regigtertdjiis fifth win against thrjy losses. Umbricht reliev ed starter Ernie Francis. Loser as Glenn McMinn of the BeCvers, who lost his first gamg since joining Portland Monday. McMinn relieved itarter Marty Kutyna in the seventh frame and is now 0-3 for the season. Neal Dodgers' All-Star Choice Los Angeles (WD The Los Angeles Dodgers were hopeful today that the rest of the Na tional league felt as they did about Charlie Neal's ability at second base and chose him to play the position in the All- Star game. "Neal has a better arm and covers more ground than Jackie Robinson did at sec ond," a a y coach Peewee Reese, who was the shortstop In the keystone ccombination with Robinson. Iv never seen a second baseman play better than Neal . has this year. He makes terri fic plays with such smooth- ness they look easy. But I know better, , Reese con tinued. Neal's teammates, especial ly the men with whom he teams in the infield, are out spoken in praising the slim ballhawk from Longview, ' Tex. "They may talk about the Reds' Johnny Temple and the Pirates' Bill Mazeroski, but we have' the , best in the league," says shortstop Don Zimmer. "Neither of them has Neal's speed and they just don't have Charlie's arm. If Neal doesn't get the All-Star est injustice -of the game." Giants Worry About 2nd Spot San Francisco-(UPD-The San Francisco Giants gave up worrying about first place to day and concentrated on the problem of defending their number two position in the. National league" standings against the Pittsburgh Pirates. With only 1V4 games sep arating them from manager "Danny Murtaugh's sluggers, the Giants will call on ace southpaw0 Johnny Antonelli t halt the Pirates. Bob Friend will pitch for Pittsburgh. . Tuesday, the smokey city boys pounded three San Fran cisco hurlers for 15 hits and . a 5-1 victory as Vern Law tossed a six-hitter. : "Our problem today," said manager Bill Rigney, "is get ting some hits and runs. Our batters are t in a terrible slump." Mays Isn't Hitting "Willie Mays just can't seem to get a hit at all. And the rest of the middle part of the lineup, isn't , doing much better." ! Mays has had only five hits In 32 times at bat during the home stand for a .157 aver age and his season average has dropped to .309. t " "He just seems to go in a slump once a year like this," said Rigney. "And he'll have 4o fight his way out." Alston Thinks LA Has Chance Los Angeles-(DPD -Manager Walt Alston of the Los An geles Dodgers, normally a cautious man, today went overboard and said the Club had a chance to go to the top in the National league if it continues playing as it has in recent weeks. Improved pitching and clutch hitting were the rea sons why Alston for the first time indicated he felt the Dodsers could "go ., all the way." They are now third in the standings. Roger Craig could make Alston's cup of joy overflow tonight if he follows Sandy Koufax and Danny McDevitt in scoring wins over Phila delphia. Pitching was the Dodgers major weakness early in the season when only Don Drysdale and Johnny Podres could win as starters. But now the Dodgers are so loaded with winning hurl ers Alston doesn't know who he can drop out of his start ing rotation. Portland grabbed a 1-0 lead in the second inning when Clarence Moore reached first on a single and went all the way to second on a wild throw. Moore stole third and scored on Jim Westlake's sac rifice fly. The Beavers picked up an other run in the sixth to move into a 2-0 lead when Russ Snyler singled to left, stole second, went to third on an infield out and stole home. Bees Tie Score The Bees tied the score' in the seventh on Jim Ballmer's two-run home run into the left field stands. It was Bau mer"s fourth round tripper of the season. The rabbit ball played dead in the Pacific Coast league last night, with only the San Diego Padres spoiling an otherwise excellent night for PCL moundsmen. The Padres racked four Se attle hurlers for 15 hits while coasting to a 9-1 victory, but elsewhere it was a different story. Roger Osenbaugh stopped Spokane on two hits for a 2-1 Sacramento victory, Curt Barclay of Phoenix four hitted Vancouver in a 5-0 shutout, and a pair of Salt Lake pitchers scattered 10 safeties in a 3-2, 12-inning win over Portland. San Diego's R. W. - Smith also came up with an ex cellent hurling performance, limiting the last-place Rainiers to four hits. Spokane scored its only run off Osenbaugh in the ninth inning when Fred Hatfield reached second base on an error, then came home on Tommy Davis' double. Davis singled in, the first frame for the only other Spokane hit. Osenbaugh, who picked up his third . win against the same number of losses, struck out six and walked four. The Sacs collected only five hits off three Indian purl ers, three by Milt Smith, in cluding a solo homer m the sixth. - Win String Halts The win, which halted a five-game . Spokane winning streak sent the Solons into a 2Ji game lead over second- place Vancouver. Barclay allowed just one runner past first base to pick up his sixth win for Phoenix. Charlie White led off the third inning with a triple for the Mounties, but he was left stranded when the Giant right-hander shut the door. Losing pitcher Chuck Es trada also turned in an esti mable hurling performance, striking out 10 batters in the eight innings he worked. But he gave up two runs in the fourth when Willie McCovey homered with one abroad and that' was all the lead Barclay needed. The Giants- added three runs in the ninth off reliever Dick Luebke. Two came home on Bobby Pres cott's pinch-hit homer. . Rod Graber belted two doubles and a single in four trips to pace San Diego's bat ting attack. The Rainiers got their only run off Smith on two hits and a sacrifice fly in the first.

Mickey Wright j Eyeing Repeat j Pittsburgh (DPD B londe Mickey Wright, confident and poised,- said today she hoped her "repeat pattern" would re tain the Women's Open cham pionship she won last year. .The San Diego, Calif., long ball wizard won the Ladies PCA on the Churchill Valley Country club course the same setting where she will defend the Open title Thurs day, Friday and Saturday. The tall willowy swinger offered her record as a prece dent. "There must be a first re peat winner and I hope to be the one," she said. "I've repeated at Sea Island, Jacksonville and Detroit and had the low stroke total two times running at Virginia Beach." Mickey won the-PGA title with a 288 over the Churchill course. The best women's score posted in a 72-hole tour nament at Churchill was re corded by Louise Suggs with a 285 in 1957. ammaamammmmmmmammmmmm ummmmMaa , . - ammmmmm T PARK rSs r I j n.
