CARDINALS RISE TO 2fJD IF NATIONAL Hats Tipped To Veteran Baseballers By FRED DOWNS United Press International They say theres' no senti ment in baseball but who can deny a tip of the old chapeau . today to vets like Ted Wil liams, Stan Musial, Curt Sim mons and Luis Arroyo? All four were considered just about washed up when the season started but now Williams has reached another home run milestone, Musial and Simmons are playing ma jor roles in the St. Louis Car dinals' astonishing rise to pen nant contention, and Arroyo is tne lifesaver of the New York Yankee bullpen. Here's how the four old pros showed the young 'uns how to do it in Tuesday night's major league action: VWilliams, 41, tied Mel Ott for third place in the all-time home run race when he hit the 511th of his brilliant ca reer in the Boston Red Sox' 6-3 loss to the Cleveland In dians. -Musial, 30, figured in three runs with two doubles and a sacrifice fly in' the first game and Simmons, 31, pitched a five-hitter as the Cardinals whipped the Phillies, 5-4 and 6-0, to move into second place in the National league. -Arroyo, 33, turned in his sixth straight fine relief job to gain credit for the Yan kees' 7-4, eight-inning triumph over the Chicago White Sox. The win boosted , the Yankees' American league lead to 1V4 games. Pirates Beat Cubs The Baltimore Orioles beat the Detroit Tigers, 3-0, and the Kansas City Athletics beat the Washington Senators, 8-3, after a 3-1, 12th-ining loss, in other American league games, while the Pittsburgh Pirates topped the Chicago Cubs, 7-1, and the Los Angeles Dodgers shaded the Milwaukee Braves, 3-2, in other National league action. San Francisco at Cin cinnati was rained out. Williams hit his 19th homer of this season off Jim Perry, who went on to win his 14th game for the Indians. The blow by Williams, who is hitting .305 this year, sailed far over the 380-foot mark in Cleveland stadium and pro duced a 3-3 tie in the fourth inning. Only Babe Ruth, with 714, and Jimmy Foxx, with 534, hit more homers than Williams, whose heroics were negated by a two-run homer and a run-producing double by Vic Power. Musial, who lifted his aver age to .291, doubled and scor ed in both the sixth and eighth Innings to help relief ace Lin dy McDaniel raise his record to 9-3. Then Simmons, a sore arm case for several years, topped his ex - Philadelphia teammates for the third time to complete the sweep and give the Cardinals four straight victories and 151 in their last 14 games. Arroyo, brought up from Seattle Continues Hot Streak in PCL By PETE COLEMAN United Pres International . When a team gets hot, you can't beat them no matter what you do. Gary Peters of San Diego found this, out in Tuesday night's Pacific Coast league play. The Padre righthander held Seattle to four hits, but the Rainiers, notching their fifth in a row, got a pair of unearned runs to take a 2-1 decision. Jersey City of the Interna tional league three weeks ago, shut out the White Sox for l'A innings to win his first game for the Yankees. The Yankees pushed over three runs in the eighth inning with the aid of errors by Joe Gins berg and Roy Sievers with the bases filled and the game was called after the' White Sox' eighth because of a sudden rainstorm. Brooks Robinson's three-run fourth inning homer and Chuck Estrada's four-hit pitch ing gave the Orioles their fourth straight victory and ninth in 10 games. It was the 12th win against six losses for Estrada, who handed Frank Lary his 11th defeat. Harmon Killebrew's two run 12th inning homer en abled Ray Moore to win his fourth game for the Senators but the Athletics took the sec ond game as Don Larsen, re cently recalled from Dallas Ft. Worth in the American as sociation, won his first big league game since June 13, 1959, with late-inning relief help from Ken Johnson. Pitches Five-Hitter Vinegar Bend Mizell pitch ed a five-hitter to win his ninth game of the season and his eighth for the Pirates since he was - obtained from the Cardinals in June. Doubles by Bill Mazeroski and Bob Skin ner featured a five-run rally that tagged the Cubs' Moe Drabowsky with his first de feat. - Johnny Podres, aided by Larry Sherry's ninth-ining re lief, won his 10th game for the Dodgers with a nine-hit, 10 - strikeout performance. Maury Wills' double and Wal- ly Moon's single produced the Dodgers' decisive run in the ninth as. Bob- Buhl suffered his sixth defeat. Sherry re tired dangerous.

The Rainiers got one of their tainted tallies in the fourth inning. Bill Hain walk ed, went to third when the Padres erred on a double plav attempt, and scored on Joe Taylor's single.

NEED LINK-BELT BEARINGS? Call SP 2-5227 FAirr05 126 Ntfrth Front The fact that the Dodgers are in fourth place in the Na tional League, seven games behind the front-running Pitts burgh Pirates who seem to do no wrong, doesn't deter Moon one bit. "There's still a third of the season to go, and we're not hopelessly behind like some of those second-division clubs," Moon told newsmen Tuesday before the Dodgers clobbered the Milwaukee Braves 3-2, causing them to drop into third place behind the St. Louis Cardinals.. Pitching Will Carry "When things looked bad for us in the late goina last year I insisted we'd win, and i say now that we'll repeat," Moon said. "We don't have the one big slugger like an Hank Aaron, a Willie Mays or a r,rnie isaKs, but our pitch, ing will carry us throueh. "There isn't another club in the league that can throw one good pitcher after another at you day after day. Even when our aces get trumped, we've got pitchers who can make up lost ground," Moon concluded. SF Giants Lambasted By Sheehan Cincinnati -IUP1)- The San Francisco Giants found out Tuesday night that when it rains: it pours. Their game with Cincinnati was rained out-so manager Clancy Sheehan gathered his slumping charges in the club house and really poured it on. "They play as though they've never been in a ball park before," Sheehan told newsmon. "They throw to wrong bases, miss cutoff men -or hit them when thev shouldn't. And their base running-well, just say I be lieve it leaves a little bit to be desired." The manager warned his players that they miEht suffer a financial slump if they don't snap out of the playina habits that have resulted in eight losses and one victory on the present road trip. , He said the players would get news from the 1961 pay master, "none of it good," at contract time unless they start winning.
