Over Giants; Pirates Idle
Cincinnati - UPD - When
ever Bob Purkey takes the
hill, the San Francisco Giants
seem to roll over and play
dead.
They raked the slow-throwing
Cincinnati hurler for 12
singles Monday, but mean
while the Reds combed live
Giant hurlers for 16 singles
on the way to a 9-2 victory.
The loss cut the Giants'
lead to one game over idle
Pittsburg!!. San Francisco's
record is now 19-9, but it is
0-2 against Purkey and 0-3
against the Reds.
Tonight, San Francisco
planned to start either Mike
McCormick (5-0) or Jack San
ford (3-1) in an effort to end
the Reds' whammy over them.
Jim O Toole (3-2) was to take
the hill fur Cincy.
Strange Contrast
Monday's 28 - hit barrage
was a strango contrast to the
Giants' recent home-stand in
windy Candle stick Park
where batters have combined
to stroke the ball at an anemic
.199 clip to date.
Sam Jones and Purkey
started and both clubs pecked
away with single tallies here
and there so that it was 3-2
Cincinnati going into the fifth.
Orlando Cepeda and Hobie
Landrith had knocked in the
Giants' scores.
In the fifth, the Reds turn
ed the game into a rout with
a four - run splurge off Stu
Miller, who look over for
Jones in the third. Key play
was a slicing triple to right
by Gus Bell with a pair of
mates aboard. The Giants
prolestcd that the ball had
fallen foul, but the omnipo
tent men in blue did not see
it that way.
'Two Off Maranda
j Bud Byerly, Georges Mar
'anda and Joe Shipley also
hurled for the Giants with the
'Reds adding two more runs
,off Maranda in the eighth.
! The Giants, meanwhile, hit
the ball hard but wore unable
fto shake up Purkey. He was

Tacoma Grabs Lead
In PCI; Bevos Lose
By JOE SANDERS
Unitod Press International
The Pacific Coast league has
new league-leader today. It
is the Tacoma Giants by a slim
half game.
The Giants moved onto the
top rung by virtue of their
6-1 victory over San Diego
Monday night and Salt Lake's
9-6 win over Sacramento.
Getting all the milt-age pos
sible out of eight hits, the Gi
ants picked up their fourth
straight vlctury. They forged
into the lead with two un
earned runs in the fourth in
ning and cinched the victory
with a four-run barrage in the
seventh.
Olhec Results
The rest of the league lead
ers kept right on the heels of
the Giants, with Seattle trim
ming Portland's Beavers, 3-2,
on Bill Ilain's third homer,
and Vancouver taking Spo
kane, 3-1, on Howie floss' two-
run homer in the 11th.
For Seattle , Dave Stcn-
house, despite the need for
some relief helped in the
eighth inning, picked up his
fifth win in a pitching duel
with Noel Mickelson, The Rai
nicrs scored two runs on four
consecutive singles in the first
inning. After that, Mickelson
yielded only a scratch single
until Hain hit his home run.
The Beavers got one run in
the fifth on back-to-b a c k
doubles by Jim Grecngrass
and Don Taussig. They scored
again in the eighth on a walk
and consecutive singles by
George Frccse and Nippy
Jones after two were out.
Home runs by Harry Bright
and Joe Christopher and a
pair of triples by Chick King
paced a 14-hit Salt Lake at
tack nnd gave the Bees an
easy victory over Sacramento
A six-run second inning by
Salt Lake broke the game
open nnd the Bees were never
passed.
Bright's sixth homer of the
year put Salt Lake ahead, 1-0
Sacramento tied it in the sec
ond and then came the bot
tom of the inning and the
Bees' six tallies.
Gon Breaks Slump
Goss' game winning blow
on Vancouver's behalf broke
a long slump. His ruund-lrip-
pcr came in his first time at
bat as he had been inserted
into the line up in the 10th
inning as a defensive measure.
Pitcher Adopts
New Delivery
Chicago-IUPII -Chicago Cubs
pitcher Don Cardwell was
$1,000 richer at least today
ail because he hid the hall
from St. Louis Cardinal bat
ters Sunday.
Cardwell, who turned in a
no-hlt, 4-0, win against the
Cardinals, facing only 28 bat
ters, said much of his success
was due to a new windup he
adopted-keeping the ball in
his glove until delivery.
He said this kept opposing
batters from seeing how lie
was holding the ball nnd thus
figuring what type of pitch he
would throw.
The Cubs, grateful for Card
well's performance in his de
but for Chicago only three
days after being traded from
Philadelphia, gave Cardwell
a new contract Monday.
Forest Grove, Ore. - ll'PIl -Lewis

New Home of Giants Not
Good Place For Hitters
By HAL WOOD
Unitod Press International
San Francisco -(UPll - There's
a creeping suspicion that
Candlestick Park, the newest
baseball yard in the country,
is going to result in slashed
salaries for hitters, booming
increases for pitchers.
And there also is the belief
that some of the fans arc going
to get mighty tired seeing
scoreless games with home
runs coining only once a week.
The playing field isn't any
bigger than many other parks.
But the prevailing winds from
left field make home run hit
ting almost impossible for
right-handed hitter s who
make up Hie vast majority of
major league baiters.
The San Francisco Giants'
Willie Mays hit the nail right
on the head when he took one
look at Candlestick Park and
said:
"This is no place for a bat
(cr to win a salary boost."
Take a look at the record:
Nobody Scores
Of the last five games
played In the park against
Philadelphia and Los Angeles,
four of the games were shut
outs. The other was a 2-1 af
fair. There have been so many
low hit games that the mana
gers nre starting to feel com
fortable with a one-run lead.
The composite batting ave
rage for all games played in
Candlestick Park is .109. The
Giants are batting a mlnlscule
.231 there and their oppo
nents only .107.
"I guess you would have
to say it's a pitcher's para-
disc, says Manager Bill Rig
ncy. "And our hurlers cer
tainly have taken advantage
of it. Of course, you also have
to have fast men in the out
field, men with strong arms
And you have to be able to
bunt and steal bases. You can't
win on power alone in this
park."
Pitchers Sparkle
AH this is making the
carned-run averages of the
pitchers look good and the
batters exasperated.
Young Mike McCormick,
aged 21, has won five straight
games this year and has an
ERA of 1.51. Sam Jones, with
a 4-2 record, is 1.01; Billy
O'Dcll, who has lost three and

Beavers gave former major

his outright release here Sun
day. Portland manager Tommy
Heath was forced to cut John

Pacific Coast League's 21

.lohnson had an 0-3 record

age at the time of his release
Johnson posted 7 15 record

Ray Wietecha and John
Houser, two typical National
Football league linemen, are
among the latest profession
als to sign for the I960 cam

Eastern division champions.
Houser, an offensive guard
for the Los Angeles Rams, is
typical of the small college
players who play in the NFL.
He attended the University of
Redlands, where the Rams

by an NFL club. The Rams
signed him as a free agent
and now consider him one of
tileir top young linemen.

'San Francisco keeps win

have all that power going to

Al Wortliington, a right

The Red Sox also optioned

The Kansas City Athletics

It was a ,case of playing
both ends against the middle
Monday night in Northwest

And the way things ended
up, the middle and tail end

defeated their visitors, 6-4.
The only other league con
test scheduled between Salem

Due to the defeat, Eugene
lost a half-game to every team

Ben Brown, who had account
ed for the first inning Chief
tally with a double, knotted
the score 4-4 in the bottom
of the eighth.
Wenatchee catcher Don

League Lead
Ron Hansen, a 22-year-old,
6-foot, 3-inch shortstop, horn,
ered in the fifth inning to
give the Orioles a 2-1 victory
over the Kansas City .Ath
letics and lifted them into
sole possession of first place.
Fifth Straight
It was the Orioles' fifth
straight win, their longest
winning streak since the last
week of the 1958 season, and
put the team in the best posi
tion it has been at this stage
of the season since it moved
to Baltimore. The Orioles now
lead the second-place Chicago
White Sox by a half-game.
Hansen's homer off Ned
Garver gave the Orioles a 2-0
lead and turned out to be
decisive when Dick Williams
singled home a Kansas City
run in the seventh. The run
was charged to Arnold Port
ocarrero although Williams
hit was off Jack Fisher, who
then retired the side and
shut out the Athletics in the
last two innings.
Jackie Brandt homered in
the first inning to give the
Orioles their first run.
The Cincinnati Reds routed
the San Francisco Giants, 9-2,
for their 10th triumph in 12
games and the St. Louis Card
inals scored three runs in the
ninth inning to beat the Phil
adelphia Phillies, 5-3, in Na
tional league games thnt pro
vided the only other Monday
action in the majors. Los An
geles' scheduled game at Mil
waukee was rained out in the
second inning.
