Newspaper Page TextTigers Loop Yet Unbeation in American Pirates Lead in National By FRED DOWN United Presi International You can't blame the De troit and Pittsburgn fans for whooping it up-they've wait ed 20 years for the Tigers and Pirates to make jackrabbit starts. The Tigers remained un beaten atop the American league when they whipped the Chicago White Sox, 12-4, for their fifth straight victory Sunday while the Pirates took over first place in the Nation al league when they beat the Milwaukee Braves, 7-3, for their eighth triumph in 11 games. The Tigers haven't made such a fast start since they won eight of their first nine games in 1937 and the Pirates are making their best early showing since they won their first seven games in 1938. In fact, over the years, the Ti gers and Pirates have, more often than not disappointed their followers with early-season slumps. Haddix Beats Braves Casey Wise, the ex-Milwaukee infielder, and catcher Lou Berberet led the Tigers' ex plosive attack Sunday while Harvey Haddix, who hadn't beaten the Braves since 1957 was the Pirates' hero. Wise, filling in for second baseman Frank Boiling, drove in five runs with two homers, a triple and a single and Ber beret hit a grand slam homer that highlighted a six-run first inning assault on 22- game winner Early Wynn. Paul Foytack yielded nine hits to win his first game as the Tigers completed a three- game sweep of the American league champions. Haddix gave way to EIroy Face after being tagged for 10 hits in 8 13 innings and the Pirate reliever ended a Brave rally. Smoky Burgess and Bob Skinner hit homers and Bill Mazeroski had a tri ple and two singles for the Pirates, who dealt Bob Buhl his first defeat. The Cleveland Indians fi nally won their first game when they defeated the Kan sas City A's, 7-0, the New York Yankees scored eight runs with nobody out In the first Inning and downed the Baltimore Orioles, 15-9, and . the Washington Senators beat the Boston Red Sox, 11-10, in other American league games. Cubs Beat Giants In the National league, the Chicago Cubs knocked the San Francisco Giants out of first place, 9-4, the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Los Ange les Dodgers, 7-2, and the Cin cinnati Reds won, 10-4, after losing the first game of their double-header with the Phila delphia Phillies, 9-5. The Indians rocked Don Larsen for five runs in the first inning and went on to beat the A's behind Gary Bell's six-hit pitching. Woody Held hit two homers, includ ing a three-run blast in the CORNERSTONE BOUGHT h Brooklyn 0IPD The corner- ; stone of Ebbets Field, famous f home of the Dodgers for 45 i years, is enroute to the Hall i of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y., ) by courtesy of National league j President Warren Giles. Giles purchased the cornerstone for '3 S600 Sunday when memora- j bilia of the home of some of i baseball's zaniest incidents, went under the auctioneer's J gavel. The park is being torn ! down to make way for a hous ing project. AIR NEEDED Detroit - It requires about 14 pounds of air to provide enough oxygen to burn one pound of gasoline In an auto engine. first inning, and Vic Power and Jim Piersall had three hits each for Cleveland. The Indians had lost their first four games of the season. The Yankees tied an Amer ican league record with their first-inning attack and car ried a 121 lead into the eighth inning behind the sturdy pitching of Jim Coates. Grand slam homers by Albie Pearson in the eighth and Bil ly Klaus in the ninth brought the Orioles close until John ny James retired them in the ninth. Tony Kubek hit two homers and Elston Howard drove in five runs with a homer and two triples for the Yankees. Hits Two Doubles Bol Allison's two doubles drove in three key runs for the Senators, who twice over came four-run Sox leads. Bobby Thomson had four hits, including a homer, and Vic Wertz and Lou Clinton also homered for Boston. The Cubs scored seven runs with two out in the eighth in ning to end a five game losing streak and gave relief ace Don Elston his second win. Bob Wills' three run bloop single. a homer by Tony Taylor and Frank Thomas' double were the big blows of the Cubs' winning rally against Billy Loes, Stu Miller and Bud By-erly. Stan Musial, hitting .296, hit his second homer and Ken Boyer his fourth and fifth as the Cardinals dealt Johnny Podres his first defeat. Bob Miller went 6 13 innings and then Ron Kline and Lindy Mc Daniel pitched hitless ball over the last 2 23 innines. Wally Moon had two of Los Angeles' six hits. Rookie Jim Coker's eranH slamer homer in the eighth inning leatured a seven-run rally that enabled Chris Short to pick up his first big league victory for the Phillies. The Reds won the nightcap for Don Newcombe with a 15-hit attack that included homers by Roy McMillan, Eddie Kas ko and Frank Robinson.

Veteran outfielder Duke Snider's trick knee crumpled as he fielded Leon Wagner's single in the second. Snider, the usual clean-up man, was replaced by Don Demeter Sunday as the Dodgers drop ped their third straight to the Cardinals, 7-2. Trainer Bill Buhler took Snider to the clubhouse-the Duke was bothered all through 11)58 by the bad left knee-and packed it with ice. Just how long he might be out is just one of the things that had Walt Alston getting grayer as he prepared to face Ernie Banks and company Tuesday in Chicago. Hits Come Hard The Dodgers still have to almost put cash on the line for a base hit, and now the pitching staff which gave the world champs their first five wins is havings its trou bles. Starter Johnny Podres and reliefer Stan Williams gave up eight bases on balls as the Dodgers dropped their fourth straight. The loss to the hard-hitting Cardinals gave the Dodgers a 5-5 mark on the young season and third place 2 Vis games be hind yep, the Pirates from Pittsburgh. McCormick SF Choice St. Louis-H'PD-Young Mike McCormick risks his perfect 2-0 record and attempts to in sert the shocked San Fran cisco Giants back into a first place National league tie to night when he meets the re juvenated St. Louis Cardinals. San Francisco surrended Its half-game lead to Pittsburgh Sunday when the Chicago Cubs humiliated by the Gi ants, 18-2, Saturday explod ed for seven runs in the eighth inning with two out to win 9-4. The Cubs paraded 10 con secutive men to first base after pitcher Billy Loes, who replaced starter Billy O'Dell at beginning of the inning, had retired the first two men powerhitters Ernie Banks and Frank Thomas. Key play of the inning was Bob Will's pop fly into short left field which fell between Orlando Cepeda, Jimmy Dav enport and Eddie Bressoud The blooper came with the bases loaded and the Giants ahead, 4-2. Three men scored and the Giants had had it. VALLEY ROLLERS LEACit K suudings: . v. L. Luckv Strikes l.v.
