United Press International
The White Sox aren't the
hitless wonders of long ago
but they still make one run
go a long way.
They've scored' fewer runs
than any other American
league team except Baltimore
but they're back in first place
by a half-game today because
their pitching and defense win
the close ones
They're streaking now with
six wins in their last seven
games-and five of the victo
ries were by one run. What's
more they've compiled a 24-5
mark in or.e-run games and
are only 14 shy of the AL
record for one-run victories in
a single season,
They came through with
one of their most important
decisions of the season Tues
day night when Billy Pierce's
sturdy pitching and . Al
Smith's two-run eighth-inning
homer produced a 4-3 win
over floundering New York
Yankees. A crowd of 43,829-
largest of the season in Chi
cago's Comiskey Park - saw
the White Sox dump the
world champions into fifth
place.
Indians Drop to Second
The Cleveland Indians
slipped back into second place
when they lost, 8-4, after beat
ing the Boston Red Sox, 5-2.
The Kansas City- A's stretched
their winning streak to a ma
jor league season high of nine
by beating the Washington
Senators, 6-1, and the Detroit
Tigers defeated the Orioles,
8-3, in other AL games.
The Los Angeles Dodgers
climbed within a half-game of
the National league lead when
they beat the Pittsburgh Pi
rate, 9-4, and the Philadelphia
Phillies shaded the San Fran
Cisco Giants, 3-2. The Chicago
Cubs nipped the Milwaukee
Braves, 5-4, and the Cincin
nati Reds defeated the St.
Louis Cardinals, 6-4.
Gary Bell pitched a six-hitter
and Jim Baxes hit his 13 th
homer for the Indians in their
opener but then homers by
Frank Malzone and Pete Run
nels led the Red Sox to their
nightcap victory.
Kucks Throws 5-Hilter
The Athletics went past the
Yankees into fourth place
only a half game behind the

First Place
In NL Eyed
By Dodgers
By ALEX KAHN
Los Angeles - (LTD - The Los
Angeles Dodgers, for the fifth
time this season, today were
a half game out of first place
in the National league and
shooting at the top spot.
The combination of the
Dodgers' 9-4 victory over
Pittsburgh Tuesday night and
losses by San Francisco and
Milwaukee moved the Dodg
ers from third to second place
and just a half game behind
the Giants.
"With any sort of a break,
we could move into the lead,"
Dodger manager Walt Alston
said after the game.
Eighth Straight Defeat
The loss was the Pirates'
eighth straight defeat and
Manager Danny Murtaugh
named one of his top hurlers,
Vernon Law, 11-6, to start to
night, hoping he could break
the chain of defeat. Roger
Craig, 5-2, hurls for Los An
geles.
Tuesday night's victory
went to burly Stan Williams,
who pitched six scoreless in
nings in relief and showed he
apparently has regained his
control.
Williams credited a change
in his delivery for his effec
tiveness in recent relief ap
pearances. Alston agreed.
"The coaches have been
working with Williams to
stick to his overhand delivery
instead of trying to throw
sliders," Alston said.
"Stan has worked hard at it
and Tuesday night's game
demonstrated he has licked
his major problem of wild
ness." Yakima Bears
Sock 24 Hits
United Press International
Ouch! What those Yakima
Bears did to Tri-City in Tues
day, night's Northwest league
play.
The Bears collected 24 hits,
including five homers, scored
10 runs in one inning and
when the smoke had cleared
it was Yakima 22 Tri-City 1.
Daryl Robertson of the win
ners had a two-run homer in
the first and Herm Lewis add
ed a solo homer in the second.
Catcher Pete, Gongola added
a two-run homer in the sixth
and then came the deluge.
With such help, George
Player coasted to his sixth
win of the year as he spaced
seven Tri-City hits.
Thank
You...
A Big "Thank You" from all of us

Mounties Go Ahead
In Coast' Circuit;
Homers Fail Giants
By DON BECKER
United Press International
The Phoenix Giants may be
roaring to a new home run
record in the Pacific Coast
League but they are fast
learning it is not by homers
alone that you win ball games.
The Giants cracked five
four-masters Tuesday night.
It hardly did them any good
They got beat 9-8 by Vancou
ver, which didn't get a one
out of the park.
The win moved Vancouver
back ifito first place by a full
game over Sacramento, which
was beaten by Portland, 7-1.
Spokane defeated Salt Lake,
6-2 and San Diego nipped Se
attle, 2-1, in other games.
The Giants have now hit 11
homers in their last three
games, one of which they've
won.
Vancouver clipped five
Phoenix hurlers for 15 hits in
the fray. A three-run rally in
the top of the ninth won it for
the Mounties and gave Connie
Johnson, the third of five Van
couver pitchers, the win.
Johnson singled home the
winning run.
Bob . Speake hit a pair of
homers for the Giants while
Owen Friend, Sal Taormina
and Roger McCardell also hit
for the circuit.
Bill Werle. who veteran
PCL fans will remember fog
ging them up for San Fran
cisco back in 1942, pitched
San Diego to its 2-1 win over
Seattle. He got brilliant field
ing support and Russ Heman
tossed the final two frames for
the Padres. It was Werle's
third win against two losses
Bill Renna doubled home one
run for the Pads in the second
inning and scored the other in
the same frame.
Spokane dropped Salt Lake
three games behind Vancou
ver as it erupted for five runs
in the eighth inning to break
up a fine pitching duel be
tween Salt Lakes George
Perez and Spokane's Chuck
Churn. Winner Churn, a 27-
I:
Bill
i
year-old righthander, is now
10-2. Frank Howard hit his
eighth homer for Spokane.
Art Houtteman scattered
seven hits while subduing
Sacramento. The Beavers
chased Solon starter Winston
Brown from the mound with
three homers in the second
inning. George Freese cracked
a two-run blast while Bob Di-
Pietro and Jim Greengrass
hit solo shots. .
Portland exploded for six
hits and six runs in the sec
ond inning in belting the Sac
ramento Solons behind the
six-hit pitching of Art Houtte
man. Portland continued in
third place, only two carries
out of first place.
The second inning rally was
highlighted by a two-run
homer of the bat of George
i) reese.
Jim Greengrass socked his
18th homer of the vear and
Bob DiPietro his 10th with no
one aboard in the same frame.
Portland got 14 hits off
four Sacramento flingers.
