Newspaper Page Text1 i 2 B FRIDAY, JULY 19, 1963 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON Ralph Terry's Record Falls Below .500 Mark As Yanks Lose By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer " Babe Ruth summed it all up 35 years ago when after a tough night on the town he heard the boos of his fair weather friends. "In this game," he said, "you are a hero today and a bum tomorrow." - Ralph Terry, the New York Yankees' World Series hero of 1962, knows today what the old Bambino meant. Terry became the toast of the baseball world last Oc tober when he beat the San Francisco Giants, 1-0, in the second straight world title under manager Ralph Houk. He was the all-American cov er boy of the national mags, the former Boy Scout who made good in a tough, compe titive field and a young man with a seemingly limitless fu ture. Today, he's a bewildered 27-year-old pitcher - with an equally bewildering 9-10 sea son won-lost record, Terry's 1963 record dipped below the .500 mark - com pared with his resplendent 23- 12 marke of 1962 when the Minnesota Twins blitzed him in five innings Thursday and went on to a 9-3 victory. The loss trimmed the Yankees' first-place lead over the idle Chicago White Sox to six games. Rich Rollins drove in five runs with a homer and a dou ble and Don Mincher had a double and two singles to lead the 12-hit Minnesota at tack. Camtlo Pascual, out of action with arm trouble since June 30, received credit for his 10th win against five de- feats. Elston Jloward homered for the Yankees. The Baltimore Orioles de feated the Detroit Tigers, 8-6 in 11 innings and the Boston Red Sox beat the Kansis City Athletics, 10-6, in other Amer ican league games. Joe Gaines' two-run 11th inning double gave the Or! oles an uphill victory and ace reliever Stu Miller his fourth win of the season. Miller, who now has been the elose-ou pitcher in the Orioles' last eight victories, stopped the Tigers on one run and four hits for the last four innings. Russ Snyder and Bob John son had three hits each to oace the Orioles' 15-hit at tack. Relief sensation Dick Ra- datz gained his 1 1th victory of the season against only one loss with two innings of shut out relief that preserved the Red Sox', victory over the Athletics. Doubles by Dick Stuart and Russ Nixon and a single by Dick-Williams, who had four hits, were the big blows for the Red Sox while Norm Siebcrn hit two hom ers' for the Athletics.

Fred Hutchinson's host nine is breathing down the Giants' throats for fourth place in Na tional League standings. Both teams won Thursday, the Gi ants edging the Mcts 6-5 and the Reds bouncing St. Louis 6-3. The Giants are a game in front of Cincinnati in fourth place. Old reliable Juan Mancnai had to pull the Giants out of the rut again Thursday, this time in an unaccustomed re lief role. He held the New Yorkers hitlcss the last two innings and was awarded the Victory, his 15th of the season. Bobby Bolin was the pitch er of record when the Giants' winning rally started but the official scorer ruled that he had pitched ineffectively and awarded the win to Marichal. Joe Hicks, a rookie up from Buffalo of the International League, almost became the Mets' hero for the third con secutive day when he ripped a three-run homer off Bolin to climax a four-run seventh inning rally. However, Harvey Kuenn singled the winning run home for the Giants off loser Galen Cisco in the eighth, Ed Bailey got his 14th homer with two on in the sixth. In the eighth Felipe Alou got a pinch single to score Bailey with the tying run and Kuenn's single scored Matty Alou with the clincher. Willie McCovey kept his consecutive game hitting streak alive, getting a double in the first inning. It was the 23rd game in which he hit safely, establishing a San Francisco club mark. Hicks had two other hits along with the homer and now has a bat mark of .426 since he returned to the Mets from Buffalo last Saturday. Tonight the Giants call on Billy O'Dell (10-6) while Cin cinnati was expected- to use John Tsitouris (5-3).
