oufax Whips Cards; Wynn Fails In Bid For 3 00th Victory Dodgers Gaining On NL Leaders By United Press International Sandy Koufax' left index finger has come around so well that he now uses it to form a circle with his thumb. That's the sign everything is perfect again and it also could be a sign the Los Angeles Dodg ers are on the way to their first National League pennant since 11159. Koufax' finger probably cost f'he Dodgers the pennant last year when a circulatory ailment in it forced the left-handed fast bailer to the sidelines during July. But the digit doesn't seem to be bothering him now and if there's any question about it. Koufax can point to his record of 11 victories against only three defeats. He pitched the Dodgers within a game-and-a-half ol first place Friday night when lie beat the St. Louis Cardinals 5-3 for his fourth victory in a row. Koufax struck out nine and had triumph while Joe Gibbon fercd his filth setback. suf- Major League Results By United Press International National League (10 innings) Pitt. 000 200 300 0 5 7 2 Chicago 010 112 000 1 6 13 1 Cardwell, Veale (6), Face (7), McBean (8).
