"The x-rays showed sur
prisingly .fast healing," Gay

ready to play again after the
All-Star Game to be played
in Cleveland on July 9."
The cast was removed from

Cool .Ian Red Hot
For LA Dodgers;
Blasts Key Blow
By FRED DOWN
UPI Sports Writer
Jim Gilliam resents being
called "Junior" and so his
Los Angeles Dodgers team
mates refer to him simply as
"the cool man."
No nickname could be more
appropriate for a fellow who
takes the world in stride.
He's played in at least 144
games in every year he's
been with the Dodgers since
1933, and yet every spring it
seems he has to win his job
all over again from some
highly-touted newcomer.
Comes the middle of a hot
pennant race, however, and
Gilliam is not only in the line
up day in and day out but
also delivers the clutch hits
that win Important games.
The kids who thought they
had him beat out of a job in
the spring read about 'em in
the newspapers of minor
league towns.
The National league pen
nant race is about as hot as
it can get and so it's no sur
prise that Gilliam is red-hot.
The Dodgers have won four
straight games and Gilliam
has delivered the game-winning
blow 't three of 'em, in
cluding Wednesday night
when his two-run eighth -inning
double sparked Los
Angeles to a 5-2 victory over
the Cincinnati Reds. The vic
tory completed a Dodger
sweep of a three-game series
- the first time they won
three in a row in Cincinnati
since 1033.
Wins Eighth Game
Left-handed relief ace Ron
Pcrranoski shut out the Reds
for the last 2H innings to
win his eighth game against
two losses. Jim Maloney,
seeking his 12th win, struck
out 11 batters and went into
the eighth inning with a 2-2
tie but a walk to Ferranoski
and Gordie Coleman's wild
throw on a sacrifice attempt
set the stage for Gilliam s big
blow.
The victory enabled the
Dodgers to remain a half
game behind the first -place
St. Louis Cardinals, who top
ped the San Francisco Giants,
6-3. The' Houston Colts beat
the Milwaukee Braves, 7-2,
in 13 innings, the Philadel
phia Phillies downed the
Pittsburgh Pirates, 6-2, and
the New York Mets defeated
the Chicago Cubs, 8-6, in
other National league games.
Boyar Pacts Cards
Charlie James singled home
George Altman with the win
ning run for the Cardinals.
Bobby Shantz pitched to only
one batter but picked up his
third win. Ken Boyer drove
in four runs with a homer
and two singles for the Cardi
nals while Orlando Cepeda
