Managerial Debut of Hodges

Robin Roberts always did

In the glory years for both,
circa 1950 through 1955, Rob

Philadelphia Phillies and
Hodges hit 204 home runs for
the Brooklyn Dodgers.

savvy while Hodges is em
barking on a new career as a
major league manager.
Starts Managerial Career
Big Gil made his manager
ial debut with the Washington
Senators Thursday night and
the wheel of fate ruled that
Mr. Roberts would be on the
mound for the rival Baltimore
Orioles. The league, the cir

were different but the result
was pretty much the same
Roberts topped Hodges by
pitching the Orioles to a 6-0
victory over the Senators.
"A couple of times I felt
like taking a bat and going up
to hit myself," Hodges con
fessed after the game. "But I
don't imagine it would have
done any good."
Roberts, 1962 comeback of
the year player in the majors,
started slowly this season but
has been a major cog in the
Orioles' drive of nine wins in
their last 10 games which has
carried them into a half-game
lead in the American league.
He's won three straight com
plete games, allowing a total
of only four runs and 11 hits.
The Cincinnati Reds scored
a 2-0 victory over the Milwau
kee Braves and the St. Louis
Cardinals defeated the Chica
go Cubs 1-0 in Thursday's only
other major league games.
Strikes Out Seven
Roberts faced only 29 men,
struck out seven and didn't al
low a runner past second base
in posting his first shutout
since entering the AL in mid
1962. Home runs by Al Smith
and Jerry Adair paced an at
tack which dealt Claude Os
teon his fourth loss in a row.
The Orioles have beaten the
Senators six straight times this
season and are 12-1 against
left-handed pitching.
Roberts' three victories
against four losses this season
give him a career record of
247 triumphs and 212 defeats.
Jim OToole pitched a three
hitter to raise his record to
7-3 with the Reds, who scored
unearned runs in the fourth
and ninth innings against Den
ver Lemaster. Daryl Spencer
doubled home the Reds'
fourth-inning run and Ken
Walters singled home their
run in the ninth.
Gene Oliver homered In the
fifth inning to give Ernie
Broglio the only run he need-
' ed to win his fifth game and
j push the Cardinals into third
I place in the National League,
i The shutout - Broglio fanned
five and walked two was the
seventh by the Cardinal staff
j this season and marked the
, fifth time the Cubs were

Pittsburgh
Reacquires
Jerry Lynch
Milwaukee niPK-Jerry Lynch
likes to quip that when he's
tapped for pinch-hitting duty
"I leave the dugout swing
ing." With that in mind, the Pitts
burgh Pirates reacquired the
32-year-old outfielder Thurs
day in a straight swap for vet
eran Bob Skinner, with whom
he broke into the majors in
1954.
The Pirates, with one of
their weakest hitting teams in
years, plucked Lynch from the
Cincinnati Reds where the 32-year-old
lefthander developed
into one of baseball's most
feared pinch-hitters.
Lynch has cracked 13 home
runs in the pinch, one short of
the major league record held
by George Crowe.
Lynch has a season batting
average of .250 on eight hits
in 32 at bats. He has appeared
as a pinch-hitter 13 times,
connecting for three hits, two
of them homers.
Skinner, a regular with the
Pirates for the past eight sea
sons, was batting .270 this
year with no home runs and
eight runs batted in. He and
Lynch joined Pittsburgh as
rookies in 1954 but Lynch
was farmed to Hollywood of
the Pacific Coast League and
drafted by the Reds.
The Pirates, who open a
three-game series with the
Milwaukee Braves here to
night, view Lynch as the an
swer to their anemic offense.

Outlined at Hedrick Dinner
"You can fool everybody

"The responsibility u your

you are physically fit and
mentally alert," he remarked,
adding that the Boy Scout
code is a good one to live by.
Other responsibilities Even-
sen enumerated were those to
ones parents, school, town,
coaches and teachers.
The coacn spoke ot the sac
rifices parents make so that
their children can take part in
athletics and he told the
young athletes that their first
responsibility is to the home.
"You represent the best of
the school," Evenscn told the
young people. "You have a
responsibility to police the
halls and to be good leaders."
He said that, when the boys
go on trips, their town is
judged by their actions.
The honored athletes In
cluded girls' tennis team
members. Attending with the
students were their mothers
or fathers. The meal was pre
pared by the mothers under
direction of Mrs, Virginia
