Redlegs' Ueucombe Downs SF Giants; Help Out Dodgers By TIM MORIARTY United Press International Although they now wear "San Francisco" across the front of their uniforms, the Giants are still the blankety blank Giants to big Don New combe. And because of this hatred for Bill Rlgney's crew, which goes back to his glory days in Brooklyn, the big Cincin nati right-hander indirectly is helping his old Dodger team mates in their bid to catch the Giants in the current Na tional League pennant chase. Newcombe, backed up by a 13-hit Cincinnati attack, turn ed in a 7-0 shutout victory over San Francisco Tuesday night while the Dodgers pull ed to within two games of the pace-setters by outlasting the Milwaukee Braves, 7-6, in a 13-inning, 4li-hour marathon. Repulski Raps Spahn The Dodgers scored their winning run against the Braves on a triple by Wally Moon and Rip Repulski's sin gle off ace Warren Spahn, the seventh Milwaukee pitcher.

Los Angeles Encounters Cincinnati Cincinnati - (UPD - The Los Angeles Dodgers, who won their first series in the cur rent road trip by beating Mil waukee 7-6 Tuesday night for a two out of three mark, come up against their toughest foes tonight, the sixth-place Cin cinnati Redlegs. The Reds have taken 11 out of 18 meetings this season with the Dodgers. Seven of those wins came from nine games on their home terri ritory. Danny McDevitt (8-8) was selected to try and break the Dodger jinx tonight against Cincinnati's Joe Nuxhall (7-9). Nuxhall has beaten Los Ange les two out of three tries this year. Los Angeles moved to with in two games of the National league leading San Francisco Giants Tuesday night when the Giants lost to Cincinnati and the Dodgers won their 13- inning thriller from the Braves. Moon, Repulski Team Rip Repulski supplied the winning run when he drove in Wally Moon who had tripled. Repulski's single came with one out in the 13th frame. The Braves had managed to tie up the four and a half-hour game twice before Repulski's winning blow. They knotted the score 5-5 in the ninth when Dodger outfielder Don Demeter allowed an easy pop fly to trickle through his fin gers with two out. His error allowed the tying run to cross. In the 11th frame the Dodg ers again moved out front on a walk, single and sacrifice fly, but the Braves came right back to tie it up at 6-6 on a home run by Hank Aaron.

Freeman Seattle No-IKlDtter Br DON BECKER United Press International The Seattle Rainiers con tinue to be the hottest thing in the Pacific Coast league and it's having a strange ef fect upon the Rainier players. For example. Mark Free man, a giant of a pitcher with an almost equally large earned run average 4.38, fired a no-run, no hitter Tues day night as the Rainiers de feated Vancouver. It was Se attle's 13th victory in its last 14 games. The Suds are now only four and a half games behind league-leading Portland, but because of the tightness of the PCL race, they're still in seventh place. Giants Drop 12th Straight Phoenix, the coldest team in the league, lost its 12th straight decision by falling to San Diego, 6-3. Freeman, a 6-6 righthander, struck out 12 batters in his surprisingly good show. He is now 9-8 on the season. Free man walked two in the second inning and that constituted the only Mountie threat. The only other Vancouver base runner was Jim Finigan, who was safe on an error in the sixth. Sacs-Bets Rained Out Rain washed out Sacra mento's contest at Salt Lake in the fourth inning in the only other game scheduled Tuesday night. Seattle's winning run came in the second inning on a sin gle by Hal Bevan, a double by Carroll Hardy and a ground out by Rudy Regalado. The Rainiers added two insurance runs in the seventh on a walk to Regalado, a sacrifice by Harry Malmberg, a single by Freeman and a Mountie error. Bill Wilson slammed his 21st homer of the season for Phoenix but that was the only bright spot in the Giant pic ture. Bud Podbielan worked the first six innings to get the win while the loss went to Curt Barclay. The. Padres rapped out 14 hits in scoring their" six tallies. ' THE LINESCORES: Phoenix 000 200 0013 10 Jack Sanford, Lew Burdette Rivals on Hill Milwaukee"- (UPD - It's Jack Sanford (12-9) vs. Lew Bur dette (16-12) tonight as the league leading San Francisco Giants seek to knock- the de fending champion Milwaukee Braves five games behind in the National league. The Giants set the stage for the key Brave series Tuesday night by dropping a 7-0 de cision to Don Newcombe and the Cincinnati Reds. Jim Davenport, ace Giant third sacker, will miss both Brave contests because of a badly wrenched knee he suf fered Monday night in a col lision at home plate. Either Jose Pagan, who handled third Tuesday night, or Danny O'Connell, will work the hot corner and there is even an outside chance Jackie Brandt may be the call. Newcombe's victory Tues day night was his fifth of the season over the Giants against one defeat. The big right hander was never in trouble. )H( T 3 80 H Qt.
