Branca Never Rallied From Pitch to Bobby Suds Up Half Game For Stars By The Associated Press Seattle Invades Hollywood's Gil- more Field Friday night for the first game in a four-game series for leadership of the Pacific Coast League. Seattle arrives with only a lialf game lead, having taken an 11-t pounding Thursday night in oak- land after winning the first 'three games from the downtrodden Oaks. Hollywood gained a full game on the Rainiers by hanging a 4-2 decision on San Diego as Bill Mac- Donald went seven innings ireiore getting help from lefty Lloyd Hit tie. Manager Bob Margan, Dale Long and Jack Phillips hit homers for the Stars. Oakland slammed Seattle's Art Del Duca, Tom Lovrlch, Jim Su- checkl and Steve Nagy for 17 hits, while Al Oettel scored his 17th pitching triumph of the season by allowing only six nits, seaiue got all Its runs in the .fifth. Portland and Los Angeles played a tight 1-1 game until the seventh, when the Angels' third baseman, Tod Davis, homered over the left field wall. That seemed to De tne signal for an . uprising, for Los Angeles got fivp more bits during the inning and went on to clobber the Ports, 11-5. Cal McLIsh, the Angels' smokeball right-hander, eased up. In the ninth and was tagged for three runs. Davis' homer was his 13th, Mc Lish's victory was his 11th and Portland right-hander Fred San ford suffered his fifth defeat. , San .Francisco's Cliff Coggin was in rare form as he limited Sacra mento to two hits and beat the Solons, 1-0. By JACK HAND , i (For Gayto Talbot) ''; NEW YORK OB The name ' of Ralph Branca, the man wno maoe Bobby Thomson "The Hero," Is going, the rounds of the major league waiver lints a $10,000 pitch er with a 0-0 record. For years' the Dodgers stuck with Branca, Just as the club went along with Rex Barney, the Omaha wild man; hoping he would -live up to his early promise. Now they're ready to give up,' u mey can make the right kind of a deal. Branca "remains a mystery. Back in 1947. when he was 21 and fresh out of New York University, he won 21 ball games In the National League. He won 14 the next year, then 13, down to seven and back to 13 In 1951. Then It happened. TIED' .. - Brooklyn and New York finished in a -tie for first place. Each had won a playoff game. Don New- combe. ; struggling' with every nitch. coddled a '4-1 lead Into the ninth inning of the uura ana iinai game at the Polo Grounds. Newcombe had lost one run 'of his lead and there were men on second and third with one out when Manager Chuck Dressen, calling his bullpen by telephone, got the word, "Branca is ready, Branca threw one pitch to Bobby Thomson, a called strike. The next rode Into the left field stands for a home run that left Its mark on Branca' as surely as Fred Merkle's failure to touch second base In another game In the same park left its stamp on him. There was an unforgettable pic ture in the pipers the next day of Branca, slumped m utter despair, with his head between his kneesN in the Dodger clubhouse at the Polo Grounds. - My fame is sure, thanks "to your Sunday pitch." Branca, who once aspired to career as a night club singer and did winter tour on a vaudeville circuit, replied in kind: Because of you. I should never nave been born Because of you Dodger fans are forlorn Because of you thev yell .'dron And head "To sever forever and corn." Big Ralph never deserved tn m down In history as the fellow who made Thomson "The Hero." May- m cuange of scenery will help.

MILWAUKEE Wl There's a growing belief in these parts that Milwaukee's famed hospitality is back-firing a bit as far as the city's major league baseball club is concerned. "They're living pretty high on the hawg." was the blunt comment in the Stadium as the Milwaukee Braves closed a dismal home stand which showed only seven victories against 13 losses and a tie. "They're losing the ones they were winning before." There's no disputing that the team that left to open a 17-day trip Friday night In St. Louis was barely out of third place and hardly the same one that came home June 16 only six percentage points off the league lead after burning up the circuit's eastern end to post a 25-15 road record. The Braves promptly cuffed Phil adelphia three straight and moved into first place; Then the hitting suddenly fell off. So did the pitching. All at once, the home record collapsed from 14-4 to 21-17. Manager Charlie Grimm refuses to be ruffled by his team's slide towards third place. But even Grimm, who was around here before when Milwau kee was in the American Associa tion, never has seen anything like the adulation poured in in con crete form on his players. Everything's on the. house when one or more Braves shows up al most anywhere.
