Gordon's Tallying Hit Nullified So Yankees Just Tie Red Sox By JUDSON BAILEY , Associated Press Sports Editor There are managers and play ers in the American league who will tell you that the outstand ing rookie pitcher In the junior circuit this season Is' Chnrley Wensloff of the New York Yankees. This may be open to debate, but no one will question his right to be called the un luckiest. The climax came in a twi light game at Boston last night which resulted In a 2-2 tie in 11 innings after darkness forced a halt. Wensloff pitched four-hit ball, fanned seven, and might hnve won except for one of the rarest happenings in major league baseball a player batted out of turn.

Shut Out was so unimpressive In his workouts early in 1942 that Eddie Arcaro, stable Jockey, passed up the son of Equipoise for the sturdier Devil Diver in the Kentucky derby.

But on his second turn he slammed a drive against the fence thnt brought a tally home. Then Manager Joe Cronin of the Sox rushed out to the um pire and pointed out that Gor don had hit out of turn, nullify ing the run. The Senators gave ground to the Yankees, however, by drop ping a 5-2 decision to the Phila delphia Athletics in the fnee of six-hit hurling by Orie Arntzen and a 15-hit assault by the A's.

Ortiz registered- a technical knockout over the San Francisco boy at Hollywood Legion sta dium last night in the seventh round after Tony had hit the deck three times in that round.

DANGEROUS DOWN HERE MANCHESTER, Conn., (JP) Steeplejack John F. Tynan fell down stairs and broke his arm. It's the same arm he broke once before falling off a four-foot-high step-ladder. - BuiTs-Eye Sunday looked much brighter five losses. The wins included several shut-outs and a no-hit- ter. Brooklyn planned to advance this promising pitcher to Dur ham N. C, a B league team, for the present season, however a prospective V-7 navy call for July 1 prevented Hanauska from taking advantage of this opportunity. Instead he finished his Junior year at Willamette and pitched non-conference games for "Spec" Keene's club. Manager Frank Ramsey should be able to put a fairly good team on the field. For catching he will have Bart Goldbar, as well as himself. Jim Bocchi, promising in his first season at the game, will likely handle first base. Tha balance of the infield will prob ably be "Scotty" Smith at sec ond, Romo Crespl at short and Virgil Gross at third. McKinley is utility infielder. Hi Hatfield, Floyd Shipman, Orlo Oakes and Virgil Horn are available for outfield duty. Virg Haynes and Aldo Belloti, who have been unable to reach proper pitching shape due to lack of favorable practice conditions, will be held in reserve The Bend Elks are expected to field the same veteran club which has four straight victor ies without a defeat, all by im pressive scores. Lineup will probably be: Ackley, rf; Doug-, lass, 3b; Gordon, ss; Hatch, lb; Nehl, cf; Roberts, If; Bailey, 2b; and musser, catcher, with either Jim Farmer or Bob Houtchens as the starting pitch er. Game time is 2 p. m. at Rec reation park on Owens street.
