Tribe, Angels Tied in AL;
Pirates Keep Up Hot Pace
By TOM MORIARTY
UPI Sports Writer
Don't try and sell the Cleve
land Indians and the Pitts
burgh Piratos that old saw
about the Fourth of July
major league pacesetters
winding up in the World
Scries.
They're Not Buying
History might be on the side
of the Los Angeles Dodgers
and the Los Angeles Angels
because they reached the holi
day milestone with half-game
leads. However, the Indiana
and Pirates feel they're going
to have a lot to say about the
pennant races in the second
half of the season.
The Indians climbed into a
flat-footed tie with the idle
Angels for the American
league lead Thursday night
when they nipped the Detroit
Tigers, 7-6, on Don Dillard's
two-out, ninth inning home
run.
Scored Seventh Straight
The streaking Pirates, look
ing more and more like the
1960 world champions, scored
their seventh straight victory
by blanking the Philadelphia
Phillies, 5-0, behind the six
hit pitching of Al McBcan.
It's hard to predict which
club faces the toughest ob
stacles in its pennant push.
The Indians, of course, still
must contend with the New
York Yankees, who are onlv a

LA Angel Baseball Fans
Wondering About Magic
Los Angeles-(Uro-The stand
ings don't lie and tonight the
Los Angeles Angels open
their defense of a first place
tie in the American league
when they start a ,19-game
home stand with the Boston
Red Sox.
The Cleveland Indians
jumped back into a first place
tie with the Angels Thursday
night by edging Detroit, 7-7,
on Don Dillard's ninth inning
home run despite three con
secutive home runs by Rocky
Colavito.
Los Angeles baseball fans
spent all of Thursday wonder
ing by what magic manager
Bill Rigney and general man
ager Fred Haney achieved
the feat of boosting the An
gels to the league lead on the
Fourth of July when tradition
says the team that leads is
headed for the pennant.
And to kick off their home
stand, the Angels arranged
for a natural-having Bo Be
linsky of no-hit fame meet
the other league pitcher with
a no-hitter to his credit, Earl
Wilson.

Newport. R. I. (UPIl Emil
(Bus) Mosbacher. a veteran
Long Island Sound yachtsman
with a roomful of sailing
trophies, was to attempt to
steer the yacht Weatherly to
her fifth consecutive victory
today in the America's Cup
trials off Newport.
Weatherly, a blue-hulled
beauty who underwent an ov
erhaul earlier this year 'o
become a red hot contender,
met the 1958 cup defender,
Columbia, while the sleek
newcomer to international
racing, Nefcrtiti, pairs off
with four-time loser Easter
ner. Weatherly handed East
erner her fourth loss in as
many days Thursday when
she swamped Chandler Hov
ey's entry by 10 minutes, 30
seconds, the greatest margin
of victory of any of the con
tests, in the four days of the
match racing.
Nefertiti, still smarting un
der the drubbing administer
ed on Wednesday by Mos
bacher and Weatherly, haul

onds ahead of Columbia.
ed the past week by a pulled
namstring muscle but Angel
trainers said he should be
ready for tonight's classic
pitching battle.
Belinsky was Wilson's
pitching opponent at Boston
the night of June 26 when
the Red Sox hurler notched
his 2-0 no-hitter. That made
Belinsky only the fifth pitch
er in modern baseball history
to be involved on both sides
of a no-hitter the same season.
Belinsky hurled his no-hit
game May 5 at Chavez Ravine
stadium by the same 2-0 score
that Wilson had.
Wilson's win was the only
victory scored this season by
the Red Sox over the Angels
who now hold an 8-1 edge
over Boston and one more
decision will clinch the sea
son's scries for the Angels.
The club opens its home
stand without the guidance
of manager Rigney who on
the off day Thursday was no
tified of the death of his
father,' George Rigney, in
Northern California. Rigney
left the team to return to his
home in Walnut Creek, Calif.

half-game back in the Amer
ican league race. And the Pir
ates, despite their streak, still
are five games back of the
Dodgers, who opened a lVs
game lead over San Francisco
by cuffing the Giants, 11-3,
Thursday.
The Indians' latest victory
over the Tigers was another
squeaker that must have left
Detroit manager Bob Schef-
fing muttering to himself. The
Tigers, who dropped a pair
of extra-inning games to
Cleveland Wednesday, wiped
out a five-run deficit to tie
the score at 6-6 in the seventh
inning on Rocky Colavito's
third consecutive homer of
the game.
Homered In Ninth
Dillard, who broke the
Tigers' back with a 13th in
ning grand slammer in
Wednesday's second game,
waited until the ninth this
time before parking a l-and-0
pitch by Ron Kline into the
stands. Dillard entered the
game in the fifth inning when
Al Luplow suffered a pulled
thigh muscle.
Before leaving, Luplow hit
two-run homer. John Ro
mano added a three-run blast
to stake the Indians to their
early lead. Colavito, who now
has 20 homers this season, hit
his first two of the game off
Pete Ramos and added an
other off Frank Funk.
McBean struck out five and
issued only one walk in blank
ing the Phils for his eighth
victory of the campaign. The
Pirates scored all their runs
off Jim Owens, who lasted
only two innings. Dick Groat,
who has hiked his average to
322 during the Bucs' winning
streak, hit his first homer of
the season to climax a three-
run second inning.
Drysdale Won 15th
Don Drysdale of the Dodg
ers became the majors' first
15-game winner, scattering
eight hits and striking out
eight Giants. Among big Don's
strikeout victims were Or
lando Cepeda three times and
Willie Mays twice. Loser Mike
McCormick, who lasted only
five innings, gave up homers
to Willie Davis, Ron Fairly,
Tommy Davis and Frank
Howard.
The Baltimore Orioles
scored three runs in the
eighth inning to down the
Chicago White Sox, 5-4, in
the only other game on Thurs
day's thin major league sched
ule. Jackie Brandt hit his 11th
homer off loser Frank Bau
mann in the seventh inning
and singled home the Orioles'
winning run in the next
frame. Skinny Brown allowed
only one hit during 3 1-3 in
nings of relief work to pick
up the victory.

Hit Streak
Snapped
United Press International
Gary Johnson's hitting
streak was snapped in North
west league play Thursday
night but it didn't bother his
Tri-City teammates. They car
ried on to defeat Wcnatchee
4-3 in 13 innings.
Lewiston topped Salem 5-2
and Eugene and Yakima
played to a 9-9 tie in 10 in
nings in a game that docs not
count in the standings and
will be replayed from the be
ginning. Although Johnson's streak
ended at 26 str.-ight games, a
league record, he walked in
the Tri-City 13th and was sac
rificed to second. Don Ding
werth then tripled him home
and Dingwerth crossed on a
single by Irv Knowles. It was
needed, too, because Nelson
Mathews of Wcnatchee hit a
solo homer in the bottom of
the 13th.

HEY RUBE
Duck and goose hunlen had
better gel organized and head
over lhe hill toward Klamath
Falls. Senate Bill 1988 is still
stuck in committee and won't
get out until our representa
tive from southeastern Ore
gon is convinced that there
are a goodly number of voters :
in favor of the bill. Without
this bill there is a good chance
that the burea of reclamation
and a group of farmers will
get control of more and more
of some of the best habitat
in the Pacific flyway.
THE ANGLER'S LOG
There have been a ouple
of reports of arge brown trout
being caught in the Rogue
river below Laurelhurst. This
isn't loo unexpected in the
upper river, but the last re
port came from below Trail
and the fish weighed 4'2 i
pounds. This is a story that I
came trom a serious, nonosi :
fisherman who wouldn't lie J
any more than I would. I
Diamond Lake Is still slow. On
the 4th there were 42 boats out of j
lhe lodge lhat brought back 42
fish. The fish were over 18 inches
long and were caught by trolling
a FF&W as deep a it was possible.
There doesn't seem to be too
much weed in the lake, but things (
aren't happening yet.
Km if rani Line i nere are re
ports that some trout are still
taking at the mouths of Sampson
and Emigrant creeks. Stilllishing
with worms is lhe favorite style.
Elih Lake The fishing is good.
The bigger fish seem to he lak
ing Thrv are 16 to 1R inch rain

ishmg with eggs and worms
Howard I'ralrie fishing is good
Luck seems to be fairly consistent
with all types of gear taking fish.
Quite a few fish are being caught
that go over 21 inches The big
gest so far this year measured 25
inches. Average sir.e Is 12 to 15 .

productive at the north end of the ;

fair. A small bov caught a 22-inch-er

are being taken every da v.

come out of the il' (drums again.
It was sood last "iiursday and
1 Friday, then It copied off until
yesterday when the fish started
hitting again. Fish of two to four
pounds are being taken Andy
reekers and FF&W or FF&fl are
favorites
Willow Lake Has slowed down.
The kokanee are still hitting and
they are big.
THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER
With the end of the salmon
season just past and the be
ginning of the fall steelhead
season only two months away,
there is a good chance that
some fishermen will be rest
ing for awhile. Most likely
the weather will be getting
so hot lhat not much of any
other kind of work will be
possible.
GOOD LUCK!
