UPI) There's a new method ot picking the starting lineups for this year's big league All-Star game on July 8. but indications today were that there won't be any changes in the rules about the pitchers. Casey Stengel, New York Yan kee manager who annually pilots the American League team as an old "Yankee custom," wants a rule to prohibit managers from Sacs Beat Mounties; Beavers Whip Giants By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS There's nothing like a last-of- the-nmth, pinch-hit, grand-slam, game-winning homer to give the home crowd a knees-knocking case of baseball fever. That's what the Sacramento So lons gave a crowd of 1,404 home town lans Wednesday night as they beat the Vancouver Mounties, Pacific Coast League leaders, 5-2. The Mounlics maintained their slim margin over Phoenix as the Giants fell belore the Portland : Beavrs 8-7. The Spokane Indians 1 tripped Salt Lake City 9-8 and the Seattle Rainiers snapped a five game losing streak with a 6-5 de cision over San Diego's Padres. It was Carlos Paula, a .3(14 hit- Broncs Drop Long Fracas By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS You can't win 'em all, the Lew iston Broncs found out Wednes day night when they dropped a 14-inning, 9-7 Northwest League decision to Tri-City. At Salem it was a different story. The Senators arc wonder ing if you can win any. After playing 33 league games Salem, finding it tough to win number ten, lost its sixth in a row to Wenatchee, 9-8. In the other league tilt, Yakima edged Eugene, 4-3. ' Tri-City's marathon 3'i hour game with Lewiston finally ended when the Broncs Kip Kipper walked a pair of baiters and, alter striking out the next two Broncs, gave up singles to Ray Stotler and Don Whilcomb, which let in two runs. Lewiston started out right, hold ing a 4-0 lead until Tri-City's Braves came through with five tallies in the sixth frame. Vein Pivers slapped a homerun to give the Braves a pair of runs in the seventh. That was the extent of the scoring lor Tri-City until the lucky 14th. A record home crowd of 6,731 watched I he Broncs lose their ninlh NWL game. The third place Yakima Bears nearly fumbled in their drive to overtake the loop leaders, they held a comfortable 4-1 lead over Kugenc until the last of the ninth when the Emeralds' Bob Turk drove in two runs on a single. But Yakima staunched any lur ther Eugene scoring threat and picked up its eighth straight vic tory. A driving five-run push by Sa lem in the last three innings al most overtook Wenatchee. The rally lost steam, however, and the Chiefs won it on the slrength of two big innings. Wenatchee closed out its scor ing in the seventh when pitcher Ken Mallory, who often serves as a pinchhilter. clubbed a three-run homer. Hie (.hicls had scored (mil runs in the first and added sin gles in the fourth and sixth.

And league heads Warren Giles tcr, who smashed Russ Neman's first offering out of the park with three Solon teammates aboard and won It for Sacramento. The Solons, behind 2-0 going into (lie last of the ninth frame, got their first run on a single by Al Heist, two walks and Nippy Jones' single, which chased in Heist and set the stage for Paula s blast. The Seattle victory over the Padres was just about as hectic for hometown Rainier fans. Seat tle was trailing 5-4 going into the last of the ninth when the Suds woke up with a start. A single, an error, a sacrifice and an intentional walk off San Diego starter Dick Brodowski loaded the bases1 and Brodowski relinquished pitching chores to lefty Hal Woodeschick. Woodcschick worked the count to 3-2 before walking Vada Pinson lo score the tying run. then worked a carbon copy on Jim Dyck to force in the winning run. Pinson and San Diego's Earl Avcrill both got two-run homers fin the first inning. ' The Indians spoiled the Bees three runs in the Hrst frame and then went ahead for keeps witli four runs in the second on three singles, a walk and Dick Williams' double. Sam Milcy homered for the Bees in the first and collected an other before the night was over Dick Stuart blasted one out for Iho Bees in the fifth and Boh Jenkins and Glen Uorhous swat led circuit clouls for Spokane. George Freesc drove in three runs with a first-inning homer to get the Beavers oil lo a good start as they pushed lour runs across in that frame, r rcesc sin gled in another run with a single ill the fourth and scored himself on a sacrifice fly. The Giants got single runs in the second and fourth, three in the sixth and two in the seventh which closed the score to its fina outcome, but they couldn't get any more. The Mounties announced the signing ol Ben Wade, a former major league huiier, as a reliefer. Wade, who once pitched lor Brooklyn, SI.

Harridge refused to com ment at all. But Giles said: "I personally would be against suggesting anything to a manag er. That might hurt his chance of w 1 n h 1 n g a championship game. The big change, this year, of course, is that the starting lineup for both leagues will be made up of "ballplayers' ballplayers." This is the first time that the lineups will be picked by balloting of the major-league players, managers, and coaches. Frick took the vole away from the lans because of "ballot box stuffing" in Cincinnati. The Red leg fans voted so early and often that last year they picked an en tire starting lineup of Cincinnati players for the National League, excepting Stan Musial. r-rick announced yesterday that Iho players' voting will start on June 22. Players are allowed to vote only for players in their league and not for players on (heir team. The ballot results will be announced June 29.

LOUIS IUPI) - The San Francisco Giants took the day off today before going against the St. Louis Cardinals in the last scries of what has been a re markably successful road trip for a club that was expected to go nowhere Ibis season.

DEADLOCKED IN FOURTH The Giants opened the scoring with two runs in the first but the Phillies retaliated with a single run in their half of the first and three more in the fourth. The Giants deadlocked it al 4-4 when Ray Jablonski homered with Giant starter Johnny Antonclli on base.

Riqney Says Gomez' Fine Will Be Paid PHILADELPHIA (UPD Mana ger Bill Rigney of the San Fran cisco Giants brushed off pitcher Ruben Gomez' "threat" to quit baseball rather than pay a $100 line with the comment, "I talked to him and he'll pay." Gomez, fined by National League President Warren Giles for his part in Sunday s melee in Pitts burgh, insisted. It won t come from my pocket." 1 11 quit baseball before I pay that fine," Gomez told reporters. The most they can do to me is put me out of baseball and then go back to Puerto Rico and make just as good a living as I'm making now." Rigney was unperturbed by Ru ben s threat, however. 'Ruben knows he's gotta pay. smiled Rigney. "I talked to him and he's gonna pay." Giant center-fielder Willie Mays meanwhile, received a telegram of commendation for "clear thinking" from Giles. Willie tackled Orlan do Cepeda, Giant rookie who ap parently was rushing to the Giant dugout to get a bat. Gomez, Cepeda and manager Danny Murtaugh of the Pirates were fined $100 each. In 1950, Lehigh's baseball team had a 32-0 lead over the Quantico Marines after three innings. The game was called because of dark ness and declared "no contest." There was no protest.
