They can second guess Walt
er Alston all they want but
they'll never accuse the
strong, silent manager of the
Los Angeles Dodgers of fail
ing to stand up for a player
he likes.
A case in point today is
Ron Fairly, 24-year old Geor
gian, who has bounced around
between outfield and first
base the last two years but
who almost always was some
where for Alston. He's short
on glamour but the thing Al
ston likes about him is that
he's long on base hits.
Fairly was hitting only .200
after 10 games this season
but he's collected 11 hits in
his last 24 at bats for a .458
average and it's no coinci
dence that the Dodgers seem
to be straightening away with
three straight victories and
five wins in their last six
games.
Fairly drove in four runs
with a homer, double and
single Thursday night as the
Dodgers downed the Cincin
nati Reds 7-1 to give ex-New
York Met righthander R. L.
Miller (1-12 in 1962) his sec
ond victory of the season.
Giants Belt Cards
The San Francisco Giants
whipped the St. Louis Cardin
als 8-4. the Houston Colts de
feated the Milwaukee Braves
7-5 and the New York Mets
beat the Chicago Cubs 3-2, in
Thursday's other National
League action.
John Roseboro and Willie
Davis joined Fairly in hit.
ting homers to help hand 21
game winner Joey Jay of the
Reds his fourth consecutive
loss of 1963. Miller, the hard
luck pitcher of the hardluck
Mets last season, went the
distance with a five-hitter and
lowered his earned run aver
age to 1.14. His two victories
equal his entire total for the
1961 and 1962 seasons.
Bailey Drives In Three
Ed Bailey drove in three
runs with a homer and a
single and Orlando Cepeda
knocked in a pair with a hom
er and a double to lead the
Giants' 10-hit attack. Bob
Bolin, who pitched 4 2-3 in
nings in relief of Billy O'Dell
before retiring in the face of
a ninth-inning Cardinal rally,
received credit for his first
victory. The win put the Gi
ants in a tie with the Cardin
als for first place in the NX.
Triples by Ernie Fazio and
Rusty Staub were the big
blows of a five-run seventh
inning rally that gave Hou
ston's Don Nottebart his third
win without a loss. Don Mc-
Mahon finished up for the
Colts the third straight time
he has preserved a win for
Nottebart. Bob Aspromonte
and Joe Torre homered for
the Braves.
The stardust-touched Mets
won their sixth game in seven
tries with the aid of Roger
Craig's seven-hit pitching and
the slugging of Frank Thomas
who drove in all three New
York runs with a single and
a homer. Dick Ellsworth, who
yielded three runs and six
hits in seven innings, suffer,
ed the loss.

Steve Barber Hurls
Orioles Into Lead;
Athletics Trimmed
United Press International
If Steve Barber really can
throw a strawberry through a
locomotive why can't he pitch
the Baltimore Orioles to the
1963 American league pen
nant? Baltimore pitching coach
Harry Brecheen insists the
home-grown, 24-year-old left
hander can do the former and
a surprising number of AL ex
perts think he might just also
accomplish the latter.
In any event, the 6-foot,
190 - pound left - hander, who
was a week end pitcher for
the Orioles in 1962 when he
was a private in the Army, is
the hottest pitcher in baseball
right now.
Strikes Out Seven
Barber became the major
leagues' first four-game win
ner of 1963 Thursday night
when he flame-threw a typi
cal game-allowing seven hits
and striking out seven-to give
the Orioles a 3-2 10-inning tri
umph over the Kansas City
Athletics. The victory vaulted
the Orioles into sole posses
sion of first place and
strengthened their claims to
consideration as a season-long
flag contender.
Jack Kralick pitched a

Barber, 9-6 last season,
gained victory No. 4 of 1963
when Jim Gentile belted re
lief pitcher John Wyatt for a
loth-inning homer. Al Smith's
two-run homer had provided
the Orioles with their other
two runs.
Kralick, who had lost his
first three 1963 decisions al

runner to go as far as third
and struck out five batters.
Kralick tripled and scored the
Twins' first run on a single

Leon Wagner hit two hom
ers and Ken Hunt and Bob
Rou'gers one each to lead a 10-

Navarro his second win. The
loser was Hank Aguirre, who
was tagged for five runs and

Balk Rule
Amendment
Desired
Cincinnati 4UPD Early re
turns today from National
League President Warren
Giles' poll of managers on en
forcement of the controversial
balk rule favored an imme
diate amendment.
Giles, admittedly in a quan
dary over interpretation of
the balk regulation, sent tele
grams Thursday to his 10 man
aRcrs. asking for their opinion.
Some managers replied in
vague, general terms. Others,
such as Fred Hutchinson, Har
ry Casey Stengel and Johnny
Keane were adamant in their
views for a change.
"It's about time someone
did something," Hutchinson,
manager of tne Cincinnati
Reds, said. "What I want to
know is whether the Ameri
can league is playing base
ball? If so, why aren t they
calling balks as we arc? Worse
yet, only certain teams of um
pires are calling balks ana
others aren't. The result is
confusing on all levels.
All managers agreed the
balk rule, however amended,
should be uniformly observed
in both leagues.
The major league balk rule
presently requires that a pitch
er must bring his hands to a
complete stop at his waist for
one second betore pitching.
Giles has instructed his um-
I pircs ' this rule must be cn-
torcea.
