White Sox Win Pair To Stay Close To Yanks in AL Chase MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON MONDAY. JUNE 17. 1SS3 By Unitid Press Internttionil Pitching still is "the name of the game" and the Chicago White Sox firm of Johnny Buzhardt. Juan Pizarro and Jim Brosnan is . more than proving the case to American league rivals. Buzhardt, who leads the AL pitchers with an earned run average of 1.99, spun a four-hitter at the Kansas City Athletics Sunday and partners Pizarro and Brosnan combin ed on an eight-hitter in the .nightcap to give the White Sox 2-1 and 3-2 decisions and a virtual tie with the New York Yankees for the league lead. For Buzhardt, who had an 8-12 won-lost record with the White Sox in 1962, it was his eighth win of the season against only two losses. It also Al Barlick Suddenly Goes Home Cincinnati - (UPD - National League President Warren Giles hung out the "come home, all is forgiven" sign for Al Barlick today, but appar ently the colorful umpire of 23 major league seasons was not kidding when he quit in a huff Sunday. "I'm fed up with the whole thing, I'm going home," Bar lick told Fred Fleig, league secretary, in a phone conver sation early Sunday morning. Barlick, a protege of the late Bill Klem and the NL's senior umpire in terms of service, did not show up to work the day's Cincinnati New York doubleheader and headed home to Springfield, 111., instead. Excellent "I hope that he'll change his mind and come back be cause he is an excellent um pire and a fine person," Giles said.' The league president added that he had tried to contact Barlick but had been unsuccessful. There was a good deal of speculation over why Barlick quit so suddenly. He had to give up umpiring in 1957 and 1958 because of a heart con dition but was known to be in good health in recent months. The most logical explana tion for his-sudden retirement seemed to be over his dis satisfaction at Giles' admin istration of umpires, which was highlighted earlier this season by the controversy over the balk rule. marked the fourth straight complete game for the former Chicago Cub and Philadelphia Phillie who never before has won more than eight games in any one season in the majors. Needs Help Pizarro, a 14-game winner for the White Sox a year ago. picked up victory No. 7, but he needed help from Brosnan, the transplanted "author" from Cincinnati, who got the final five outs. Before he left, though, Pizarro had fanned eight batters to run his strike out total td 81. The Yankees stayed nine percentage points ahead of the White Sox by defeating the Detroit Tigers twice, 4-0 on Ralph Terry's three-hitter and 6-3 behind Bill Stafford and Hal Reniff before a crowd of 44,357 at Yankee Stadium, the largest of the season in the American league. The Cleveland Indians, Los Angeles Angels and Boston Red Sox also scored double header' wins. The Indians shaded the Washington Sen ators, 4-2 and 6-4; the Red Sox routed the Baltimore Or ioles, 8-1 and 12-5, and the Angels beat the Twins, 5-3 and 5-4.

Manager Freddie Hutchin son provided the lecture and pitchers Jim Maloney and Jim OToole took it from there, backed by some explo sive hitting, for a double header sweep of the New York Mets Sunday, 11-5 and 10-3. After the Mots had beaten the Reds for the second day in a row on Saturday, Hut chinson locked his athletes in the clubhouse and apparently read them the riot act. Of course, he hadn't forgotten the fact that the Reds lost five games to the Mets a year ago when losing to the New Yorkers was considered about as low as a club could sink. Moloney got oft poorly in the opener, giving up all five New York runs in the first three innings, but he settled down after that and was touched for two harmless sin gles the rest of the way in notching his 10th victory of the season in 13 decisions. 12th For O'TooU OToole went him one bet ter, althought he gave up 11 hits. How ever, the Mets weren't able to put them to gether until the ninth when they scored two runs. The victory was O'Toole's 12th against three losses. San Francisco, St. Louis and Los Angeles split their doubleheaders. enabling the fourth-place Reds to pick up a game on all three top clubs. Cincinnati now is only 3'i games behind the Giants, who lost to the Colts, 3-0, before winning the nightcap, 4-3, on the strength ot ninth inning relief pitching by Billy Pierce and Jim Duffalo. The Pitts burgh Pirates nipped the Cardinals, 4-3, in the opener on relief pitcher Al McBean's 12th inning homer, but St. Louis bounced back to take the nightcap, 11-7, while the Chicago Cubs downed the Dodgers, 8-3, be fore bowing to Rookie Nich Willhite, 2 0, in the second game. In the other NL action. Milwaukee and Philadelphia also split, the Braves winning the opener, 5-3, and the Phils the nightcap, 7-4 In 11 innings.

Giant Regulars Put on Bench By Alvin Dark San r rancisco-wpu-it i tine with manager Alvin Dark of the San Francisco Giants if Juan Marichal records a no li i 1 1 e r pitching, but when some of his regulars do the same thing at ,uie piate ne will find them a spot on the bench. Dark started Sunday's sec ond game of a doubleheader against the Houston Colts with such names as Jim Dav enport, Felipe AIou. Ed Bailey and Jose Pagan riding the hardwood. - . And the mixmasler batting order, that included Cap Peterson. Ernie Bowman and Tom Haller, produced 13 hits in a 4-3 squeaker over the Colts. Houston had taken the first game. 3-0. as Jim Urn bricht and Don Nottebart com bined to hold the Giants to four' hits and end their win ning streak. The Giants collected more hits in Sunday's nightcap than they had totaled in their last four games. But Dark's crashers still were held to four tallies and scored exact ly once in the third inning despite belting starter Ken Johnson for two doubles and a single. Two Giant base runners were nailed stealing during the first three frames of the second game while a third man was caught off second Asked if there was a leak in signals. Dark refuied to breach security. i i cannot aivuige sucn in formation," the leader Hid Los Angeies-(UPD-Nick Will hite found a curve in Hawaii- at the ballpark-and as a re sult the 22-year-old youngster was being hailed today by the Los Angeles Dodgers as the man who could bolster their pitching staff for the remain der of the season. The hard-throwing Willhite travelled north wth the Dodg ers today but instead of an air plane he was riding a cloud as a result of pitching a 2-0 shutout victory Sunday against the Chicago Cubs in his first major league appearance. The Dodgers had dropped the first game of Sunday's doubleheader, 8-3, and the outlook was glum when the lefthanded Willhite took the mound in the nightcap. Delights Crowd But the poised youngster delighted the huge crowd of 54,108 that jammed Dodger Stadium for the Father's Day doubleheader by striking out five of the first nine men he faced. " Even though the Dodgers could get only two runs, Will hite did not let that ruffle him and he went the entire distance, giving up only five hits in the memorable major league debut. I couldn t think, he said. 1 just kept throwing. Sure was nervous, but not over pitching before such a big crowd. That was the chance I had been waiting and praying for and I wanted to make good. still can't believe it. I'm still in a dream." Although he always had a good fast ball, Willhite s curve was a slow, roundhouse pitch that didn't fool manyl batters previously. But while playing against the Hawaii Islanders for Spokane earlier this season at the Island State he suddenly developed a fast curve. 'I guess you'd have to say I found my curve in Hawaii," Whulhite grinned. Willhite was brought up to the Dodgers from their Spo kane club for the coast league after he recorded six straight victories and pitched com plete games in his last three starts. "We were in Seattle when manager Danny Ozark came to me and said I was going to the Dodgers," Willhite said. "I couldn't believe it. I was in a daze and I guess I still am." Willhite said he had confi dence in his pitches and rare ly argued with catcher Doug Camilli on his calls. The youngster gave up two doubles, both to Billy Wil liams, who was the only man to get as far as second base in the game. "What I liked about Will hite," said manager Walt Al ston, "was his poise on the mound. He didn't act like a green youngster who could get rattled easily." - 30 MOM MILEAGE Start the lummar right with trxs amaiing mat am... now priced for tnimndous vwt!
