22 Homers in Six Major Loop
Games; Cleveland Lone Leader
By MILTON RICHMAN
UPI Spoilt Writer
Those poor long - suffering
pitchers considered one of
two courses today-either fly
ing the white flag of surren
der or tying it around the
throat of that: practical joker
who keeps putting more and
more rabbit into the base
balls. Statistics generally put ball
players to sleep. Here are a
few though, guaranteed to
keep most pitchers awake.
-The total of 22 homers in
the six major league games
played Tuesday w. s only five
shy of the all-time record for
a seven-game slate!
-Nine home runs, only one
short of the National league
mark, were hit in one game
alone. That was the one in
which the Milwaukee Braves
outlasted the Chicago Cubs,
11-9, despite three homers and
a double by Ernie Banks.
Seven more homers were
belted during the game in
which the Detroit Tigers bom
barded the Baltimore Orioles,
12-4.
Wont To Come
The worst may be yet to
come, as far as the pitchers
are concerned. There are 18
games on tap for today's Me
morial Day card. And it was
exactly six years ago that the
majors set an all time one-day
record of 50 homers, with ;6
in the National and 24 in the
American.
The Cleveland Indians were
idle Tuesday, but still took
over sole possession of the AL
lead when the Kansas City
A's nipped the New York
Yankees, 2-1.
Jimmy Piersall's 10th in
ning homer gave the Washing
ton Senators a 7-6 victory
over the Los Angeles Angels
and the Boston Red Sox ham
mered four homers in an 8-5
triumph over the Minnesota
Twins.
In the only other game
played, Pittsburgh took over
fourth place from St. Louis in
the NL by clipping the Cardi
nals, 7-6, with a two-run rally
in the ninth inning at Pitts
burgh. Banks produced most of
Tuesday's fireworks even
though he was ba-k in the
Cubs' lineup for the first time
since being beaned last Fri
day and waa tormented by a
The attractive old brick courthouse that houses the Jack
sonville Museum is, itself steeped in the history of the
days before the turn of the century. The former seat of
Jackson County government, dating from 1883-84, this
venerable old structure was scene of many bitter court
cases, the most sensational being the trial of the D'Autre

Washington

By ART SPANDER
Los Angeles (I'PD The Los
Angeles Angels staged a late
rally about the time the stock '
market closed Tuesday, but
usually reliable pitcher Jack
Spring sold them short.
Spring entered the game
against Washington in the top
of the 10th inning after the
Angels had rallied from a
6-0 deficit. But the Senators'
leadoff batter, eccentric Jim
Piersall, slammed the third
pitch into the left field stands
to give Washington a 7-6 win
and a split of the two-game
series.
Spring Finally Loses
It ruined Spring's record of
never having lost a game for
Los Angeles-he was 3-0 last
season and had an identical
mark this year-and left the
Angels in fifth place in the
American Leagne before to
night's twi-night doublcheader
against the Boston Red Sox in
Chavez Ravine.
Spring was the fourth An
gel pitcher to be used in the
game, a fact that supported
the idea behind the Angels'
player trade earlier in the
day.
Los Angeles swapped relief
pitcher Jim Donahue (1-0)
with the Minnesota Twins for
starting pitcher Don Lee (3-3).
