. It may be premature to hail
Boston's Dave (Boo) Ferriss as
another Bob Feller, but the two
have at least one thing in com
mon both have found It diffi
cult to beat the New York Yan
kees. - ...
Feller, the Van Meter (la.)
meteor, won 106 games for a
.665 percentage in six seasons,
holding the edge over every
other club in the lea cue by wide
margins, but he could do no bet
ter wan an even won mm
lost record against the Yankees.
. Ftrrlii Knocked Out
In batting Ferriss from the
""-mound for the first time in his
major league career yesterday,
the Yankees defeated the sen
sational Red Sox rookie for the
second straight time, the only
losses charged against him this
vpnr. Winner of nine names, at
l least one from every club, Fer
riss had copped his first eight
before being stopped by the
Bronxites two weeks ago.
A crowd of 15.110 saw the
Yankees clout Ferriss for five
hits and nine runs before he was
removed in.the fifth. The Yanks
went on to score 13 runs in that
frame. Just one short of their
own record for tallies in an in

of the Portland pitching staff,
for 11.

his 7-2 victory over the Padres.
Second-baseman Bob Gorbould

ing in four runs on his two hits
of the evening, one of them a
triple. To top off his perform
ance, Gorbould stole home with
the last tally of a four-run as
sault in ine second inning.

20 men between the third and
ninth innings without a hit. He
did not issue a base on balls
and never allowed more than
one hit in any frame.
The Angels' Charley Cuellar
turned in the fourth well-tossed
contest in setting down the
Acorns 10-2 with seven hits.
Norm Deweese, Oakland center
fielder, stretched his consecu
tive hitting streak to 16 games,
but his teammate. Jake Caul-
field broke his string at 11 when
he failed to get a back-knock in
lour trips to the plate.-
