6 B WEDNESDAY. MAY 22. 1963 - MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON MANTLE BAT EXPLODES, WAKES MARIS Yankees' M-M May 'Be Back in Business FRED DOWN 11DI Snarls Wrlitr Are M&M back in business? inH if ihfv are. haw long will it be before tome of those American league "con .tenders" are out of business? The questions are enough 'to give the New York Yan kees' rivals the jitters today because It could mean that Ralph Houk'i world cham pions are ready for their long awaited big push. Mickey Mantle and Roger Maria have been awfully quiet for $172,000 worth of home run hitters this season and It's no coincidence that the Yankees have made sev eral false start while other teams shuttled In and out of the AL lead. But Mantle's big bat exploded Tuesday night and the thunder was so loud it apparently managed to wake up Maris, too. Mantle, the MVP of the 1B62 season, who started Tuesday night's game with six homers and a .202 batting average, hit a three-run hom er in the first inning and a two-run homer In the fifth In the Yankees' 7-4 victory over the Kansas City Ath letics. Has Respectable Totals The outburst gave Mantle respectable season totals of eight homers, 20 runs batted in and a .303 average. And then, lo and behold, the long- slumbering Maris woke up with a homer of his own. Sir Roger's season totals still show only five homers, 10 runs batted in and .239 aver age but his history is that he follows Mantle off on a "tear." Jim Bouton went 5 23 in nings before turning over a 7-3 lead to Steve Hamilton and received credit for his fifth win. The Yankees re mained one game behind the Chicago White Sox and Bal timore Orioles, who are tied for first place in the AL. The .White 8ox scored their third straight victory when they shaded the Waahlngton Senators, 4-3, the Orioles beat JIM MALONEY FANS 16 AS REDS NICK BRAVES By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer Manager Fred Hutchinson and the Cincinnati Reds al- ways said tht Jim Maloney's i hard stuff would overcome his ' hard luck A 6-foot, 2-inch. 200-pound fireballer from Fresno, Calif., . Maloney won nine games for . the Reds in 1082 and would have won more except that his teammates developed pa i ralysls of the bat when he ap- peared on the mound. They didn't score a run for him ! over the last 20 innings of the '62 season. Maloney has been getting some runs this season and . Tuesday night he didn't need any luck - just a ninth-Inning helping hand from Bill Henry - when he equalled the mod ern major league record by striking out eir,ht straight bat ters in a 2-0 victory Over the Milwaukee Braves. Jim went on to fan a game-total of 18 Braves - the third highest single-game total in modern baseball history.

Freese played a big part in bringing the I960 National league pennant to Cincinnati, but neither the Reds nor he ever really bounced back aft er he broke his leg In spring training of 1961. Now the Reds have sent him down to regain his batting eye and in his first game for the Padres Tuesday night he crashed a pair of homers and a double. Easy Win He got plenty of help from his mates as the Padres rapped five homers and 20 hits on the way to a 12-1 romp over Portland. Elsewhere, Dallas-Ft. Worth stayed within a game and a half of the Pads in the south ern division with a 6-4 win over Oklahoma City. Tacoma pulled the same distance ahead of Seattle in the north ern loop with a 5-3 win; Spo kane parlayed a trio of hom ers into a 7-3 win over Ha waii, and the Salt Lake-Denver game postponed by cold weather. Freese'i heavy hitting ac counted for four San Diego runs at Portland, while Ro- gelio Alvarez drove, in five more with roundtrippers in the third and eighth innings. Mel Queen's three-run blast in the seventh took care of the rest of the tallies. I.INESCORER: Okla. Cily ... 200 200 0004 S 1 Dallas-Ft. W. 101 001 003 t 0 0 Qustl and Wootan: Dcitter.
