IS Innings to 1 -1 BeaoflDoclk

pick. -
Sometimes a team can't
beg, borrow or steel a run as
was the case with, the White
Sox and Orioles, who battled
to an 18-inning 1-1 tie in the
longest game of the year
Thursday night. ,
And there are other times
when the poor guy running
the scoreboard could use an
adding tnachine as was the
case when the Pirates came
'tip with 10 runs In the ninth
Inning to swamp the Cardi
nals, 18-2.
Southpaw Bill Pierce and
knuckleballer Hoyt Wilhelm
were the standouts in the
lour-hour-an - eight - minute
Chicago-Baltimore marathon.
Pierce Pitches 16 Innings
Pierce, once thought to be
"too frail" during the early
part of his career, pitched the
first 16 innings for the White
Snr hfrr ffivinff wav to
Turk Lown.
The 35-year-old Wllhelm
took over for starter Billy
O'Dell in the ninth and pitch
ed no-hit ball for 8 23 in
nings before Billy Goodman
singled with two out in the
17th.
Chicago scored the first
run in the third inning on a
walk and John Romano's
triple off the left field barrier
which just missed being
homer by Inches. Baltimore
scored its runs in the eighth'
on Chico Carrasquel's single,
a sacrifice and another single
by Willie Tasby.
The two teams, finally halt
ed by a midnight curfew, had
played 17-inning games on
June 4th and July 25th of
this season with Chicago win
ning both games.

iants Wn 7-1, Capture
Series from Milwaukee
By DON THACKREY
San Francisco -flJPD - At
tendance at the Giant home
games will pass the million
mark tonight, but that's not
what all the shouting is
about.
Those yells you hear from
the Giant fans who still have
voices are for the job San
Francisco did on the proud
Milwaukee Braves. After
booting away the opening
game of the three-game series,
and losing their National
league lead, the Giants came
roaring back to take the fi
nal two games of the set and
repossess their spot at the top.
.Wednesday, it was 7-1 for
the Giants and they did it
off Lew Burdette, a longtime
jinx.
Giant Killer Killed
Burdette, who still owns a
22-9 record against the Gi
ants, was greeted harshly.
Three straight singles added
up to one San Francisco run
driven in by rookie sensation
Willie McCovey and a sacri
fice fly brought home another
in the first inning.
That would have been
enough for Sam Jones, the
toothpick industry's best cus
tomer. Jones allowed the
league champions only eight
hits and did not give them a
run until the sixth inning
when he had a healthy 6-0

Pacific Coast league contest.
In the only other PCL game
Vancouver downed Sacramen
to 4-3.
The victory was the, sixth
of the season for Stigman,
who has suffered 13 defeats
this season. Loser was Port
land starter Art Houteman,
who dropped his sixth game
in 11 decisions.
San Diego scored three
times in the top of the sec

Portland lead. Ken Kraynak
started the Padre uprising
with a triple and scored when
Billy Hunter singled. Steve
Jankowski followed with a
single and Stigman belted a
triple scoring two more runs
to put the Padres into the lead
at 3-1.

The Beavers scored their
only run when Clem Moore
singled, stole second and came
across on a single by Dave
Melton.
The winners added insur-
Bressoud made it four for the
frame with a blast into the
left field pavilion. It was
homer number, six for the
shortstop.
The other San Francisco
tally- came in the seventh on
Willie Mays' 18th home run
of the year.
Only in the sixth could the
graves dent the plate against
Jones. Then a single by Wes
Covington, a double by Frank
Torre and Bill Bruton's in
field out put them on the
scoreboard.
Jones Scares Crowd '
For a few minutes the
crowd of 22,923 third sell
out in a row for the series
thought Jones might not fin
ish the game. That was in the
Milwaukee fifth when Hank
Aaron lofted a two-out fly to
left that came down where
Bressoud,' left fielder Orlan
do Cepeda and third baseman
Jimi Davenport converged.
Aaron was already on sec
ond and he headed for the
unprotected base at third.
Jones met him there, took a
throw from Davenport, tag
ged Aaron and did not get up.
He was jarred groggy by
Aaron's knee and suffered a
five inch slash above the
right knee. After going to the
pit for repairs while, the Gi
ants batted, Jones returned
to the hill to finish the game.

ries with the Beavers at two
games apiece.
Spokane and Phoenix won
exhibition games Thursday
night and Salt Lake City and
Seattle were idle.
Chuck Estrada was the win
ning pitcher for Vancouver.
Causey Homers
In the Sacramento-Vancou
ver fray, Wayne Causey's first
home run of the year, a two-
run shot in the third inning,
was the game's big blow. Cau
sey later scored what proved
to be the winning run when
Joe Frazier singled him home
in the sixth.
The victory was Estrada's
10th against four losses.
In San Diego's win, Dick
Stigman scattered seven hits
in going the route. He aided
his cause with a two-run
triple that highlighted San
Diego's three-run second in
ning. The pitching win was his
sixth of the year against 13
losses.

home run of the campaign
for the Padres in the seventh

Paper Says Britain ,
Refuses Alert r
London - (BPD -The liberal
News Chronicle reported t
day that Britain, despite urg
ing from the United States,
has refused "for the moment"
to put the U. S. missiles in
this country on a 15-minute
alert.
"This is despite . . . con
stant statements by U. S. gen
erals that the Thor ballistic
missiles in Britain are ready
to go to targets behind the
Iron Curtain," the News
Chronicle said.
The newspaper said Brit
ain is unwilling to ready the
rockets for quick action until
the bases from which they
would fly in case of trouble
have formally beendeclared
operational and H-bomb war
heads have been permanently
fitted to the missiles.
The U. S. magazine Missiles
and Rockets reported recent
ly that at least one of Brit
ain's Thor bases it already
operational.
The Newt Chronicle and
the Laborite Daily Herald re
ported that Britain has pro
tested to the U. S. against the
magazine's publication of se
cret missile data.
The government declined
comment on the report.
