CARDS RKCAI.L WITHR0W ST. LOUIS - (UPI) - Ray Withrow, a 26 - year - old power hitting outfielder, has been re called from Denver by the St. Louis Cardinals. The Cards said Withrow, who hit .253 with Denver, would report immediately. Cards' Chances Suffer Blow By I'niteri Press lntcinatinnal With due respect to the siz zling fast balls of Sandy Kou fax, the one that really ended the National league pennant race may have been thrown by Don Cardwell of the Pittsburgh Pirates. It was a whistling pitch Fri day niqht that struck DicK Groat, shortstop and sparkplug of the St. Louis Cardinals, i.n the chest. The pitch forced Gro-il'.i re moval from the first game of the twilight - night double head er, won by the Cardinals, .1-1. But the Pirates look the second game, 5-0, and enabled the Los Angeles Dodgers to stretch llieir first - place lead to &'? games via their 5-2 triumph ov-r the San Francisco Giants. Without Groat, battling !o win his second N'L batting title ond the acknowledged leader of the Cardinals' late - season drive, the Dodgers' flag worries would appear to be over. Indications are that Groat will miss at least a few games and, in any event, may play several below par during a period when the Cardinals need him most.

Diego Padres will not be re played. The Houston Colt .45s, par ent club of the Oklahoma City 8!ers, threatened Friday to go to court lo overturn Soriano's decision.
