Home Improvements Driveways Sidewalks Patios CALL 773-7555 for FREE ESTIMATES Orioles Blank Tigers; Colts Get 2-0 Win Over Pirates By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer They've taken the "kid prodigy" label 'off pitcher Milt Pappas of (he Baltimore Orioles because this year he's become a man. Immaturity of outlook has been the only rap against the 8-foot-3, 200-pound right-hander from Detroit, Mich., since he startled American league hitters with his pitching savvy as a 19-year-old rookie in 1938. Pappas compiled a 65-49 record from 1958 through 1962 but he still was regarded as a "problem child." But so far this season all the problems are being en countered by rival hitteu. Paopas turned in his second shutout and his fourth straight victory of the season Monday night in a 6-0 win over the Detroit Tigers that enabled the Orioles to move into a first-place tie with the Chi cago White Sox. Pappas al lowed only one run in each of his other two victories, has struck out 26 batters while walking only nine and has a 1.17 earned run average. Pleasingly Cocky Known In the trade as "pleasingly cock y," Pappas has been tabbed for stardom since he vaulted into the ma jors virtually direct from American Legion ball. Only four pitchers have won more big league games at his age and his shutout Monday night set a club record of 14 for a career. The Orioles backed his five- hit pitching with a salvo of four home runs that produced all their runs and dealt Phil Regan his fifth loss against two victories. Jim Gentile and Jerry Adair hit solo homers and Jackie Brandt and John Powell each slammed one with a man on base. The Orioles have won six of their last seven games dur ing which Baltimore pitchers have allowed a total of 11 runs and 33 hits. The White Sox nipped the Washington Senators, 5-4. The Minnesota Twins knocked the Boston Red Sox out of first place with a 6-5 triumph and the Cleveland Indians downed the Los Angeles Angels, 7-5, in other AL games. Colls Beat Pirates Dick Drott pitched a five- hitter as the Houston Colts defeated the Pittsburgh Pi rates, 2-0, in the only National league action. The White Sox overcame an early 3-1 lead held by Tom Cheney and snapped a 3-3 tie in the sixth inning when Floyd Robinson singled, Joe Cun ningham doubled and both scored on sacrifice flies by Dave Nicholson and pinch-hitter Charlie Maxwell. Eddie Fisher went 5V4 innings for his third victory although he needed the late-inning relief help of Frank Baumann and THE DEPENDABLE!! BUILT BY DODGE !
