Dodgers 1, Phils 0
The Philadelphia Phils were the
victims oi Drysdales 1-0 per
formance, a live-hitter at Sar
asota. The Phils got only two
runners past first base after the
fourth inning, and although the
Dodgers got only three hits, a
double by Wally Moon and a tri
ple by Jim Gentile in the fourth
inning were enough. It was the
first complete spring game by a
Dodger pitcher in three years.
When Drysdale flopped at the
atart of the 1!I58 season some said
It was nervousness before "home
town" fans. Don was born in Van
Nuys. Calif , played high school
ball there and was a hero in the
Los Angeles area before making
it with the Brooklyn Dodgers in
1956. He was 5-5 in his rookie
year and 17-9 in 195" before the
Dodgers went West.

The Dodgers, as a matter of
fact, are doing great against all
comers in the grapefruit league
exhibition games, leading the so-
called league 10-3 to top both Na
