Fred Sanford Saves Job
With Yanks; Beats ’Sox
CHICAGO, May 20.—
(AP) — Fred Sanford may
have saved his job today as
he pitched the New York
Yankees to a 3-1 six-hit tri
umph .over the Chicago
White Sox. The victory ce
mented the Yanks’ grip on
first place.
Sanford is one of the players
mentioned in a deal that would
bring a lefthand pitcher to the
Yanks from the White Sox.
Bob Porterfield was originally
scheduled to pitch today but Man
ager Casey Stengel switched to
Sanford and the veteran right
hander came through with his first
complete game of the season.
The Yanks scored in the second
inning on a walk, single and dou
ble by Billy Johnson. They picked
up another in the fifth on a walk,
sacrifice and double by Phil Riz
zuto. The Yanks’ final run crossed
in the seventh when Johnson sin
gled, raced to third as Gus Zernial
t the ball get away for a two
base error and scored on a single
by Cliff Mapes.
Sanford blanked the White Sox
until the seventh when Phil Masi
and Gordon Goldsberry doubled
to account for the lone Chicago
run.
DETROIT, May. 20—(AP)—
Detroit Tigers came up with five
double plays over the Philadelphia
Athletics today.
All the Tiger twin killings were
engineered by the second baseman
Gerry Priddy — shortstop Johnny
Lipon—first baseman Dick Kry
hoski combination. The A’s came
up with a pair of DP’s in those
same innings but neither team
could get another the rest of the
way. The record number of dou
ble plays by one team for a sin
gle game is seven—set by the
New York Yankees in 1942.
Detroit bagged four runs in a
big six-hit first inning off little
Bobby Shantz. Every man in the
Tiger lineup got a hit with George
Kell leading the parade with two.
Outfielder Paul Lehner of the A’s
got three hits to run his batting
streak to 16 games and boost his
average to an even .400.
. .PHILADELPHIA, May 20 =
(AP)--The Chicago Cubs rapped
three Philadelphia Phils pitchers
for ten hits today —— seven for
exira bases — to win 7 to 2.
The Cubs hit six two baggers
off Curt Simmons, Jim Konstanty
and Bob Miller, Preston Ward ho
mered in the seventh for Chicago.
The victory, coupled with
Brooklyn’s 3 to 2 win over Pitts
burgh in the first game of a dou~
bleheader, knocked the Phils out
of first place in the National
League at least temporarily.
BOSTON, May 20—(AP) —
Trailing 4-1 after seven innings,
the St. Louis Cardinals hustled
six runs across the plate in the
eighth today for a 7-4 decision
over the Boston Braves. Sloppy
baseball contributed to the Braves’
loss.
It was the 19th victory in their
last 25 meetings for the Cards over
the Braves. The defeat knocked
Boston out of a tie for third place
in the National League.
" A dozen of the Redbirds went to
bat in the big inning when the
Tribesmen made two of their
three errors. Those old pros, Enos
Slaughter and Marty Marion,
both doubled in the six-hit, six
run attack. Slaughter’s two-bag
ger, one of his four hits, drove
home two runs.
CLEVELAND, May 20—(AP)—
Blasting out 11 hits, Cleveland’s
Indians beat Boston Red Sox 8-5
today for their ninth victory in 11
starts.
The win gave the Tribesmen a
clean sweep of their two-game se
ries and handed Bob Lemon his
secand consecutive victory over
the Sox. It was the husky right
hander’s fourth win against two
losers.
Larry Doby, the Indians’ fleet
footed centerfielder, was the big
gun in the Tribe attack, driving
in four runs with three hits.
Joe Gordon and Luke Easter
homered for the Tribesmen and
Birdie Tebbetts smashed one for
Boston.
NEW YORK, May 20—(AP)—
Lefties Dave Koslo and Mente
Kennedy came up with brilliantl
pitching jobs today as the New
York Giants took both ends of a |
doubleheader from the Cincinnati
Reds, 8-0 and 4-3.
Kennedy started both games. In
the opener he pitched to only one
batter and then gave way to
Koslo. |
Koslo stopped the Reds on iwo
singles while the Giants pounded
Blackwell and two relief pitchers
for 14 hits including a three run
homer by rookie Monte Irvin.
Kennedy Nmited the Reds to
four hits in beating Raffensberger
and Willie Ramsdell in the night
cap. Bob Usher homered with one
on in the seventh and Bob Adams
led off the ninth with a homer to
tie the score at 3-3. The Giants
won out in their half of the ninth |
when Ramsdell walked two bat- |
ters and rookie Tookie Gilbert
singled, ‘
