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.
