Cuban Knocks
Ofi SOX,‘ 12-4
BY JACK HAND
Associated Press Sports Writer
Bucky Harris’ new Washington rhumba team-—Consue
gra and Barrero—have mucho stuffo on the old apple.
Just ask Detrqit.
The Tigers saw Sandalio Con
suegra yesterday and Conrad Mar
rero Tuesday. They haven’t seen
the ball yet.
Who are Sonsuegra and Marre
ro? The Red Sox says they both
pitched for Havana in the Florida
International (Class B) last year.
Consuegra had a 6-5 record in 11
games. He’s a slim Cuban, just
under 6 feet but only 150 pounds.
Marrero, a chunky fellow, had a
25-8 record for a 1.52 earned run
average Three years in a.row he
was the top winner in the league.
Harris wasn't too keen on his
Cuban talent during spring train
ing. Naturally he was a little du
bious about a Class B pitcher .in
the majors. Turned out he didn’t
have to worry. .
Consuegra got into an argument
with Owner Clark Griffith of the
Senators about paying off an old
Venezuela contract and went home.
He was called back from Havana
this month. First start he shut out
Chicago. St. Louis knocked him
out. Then he whipped Detroit yes
terday, 12-4, with only five hits.
Marrero, like his countryman a
righthander, now is a regular
starter with a 4-2 record. Half his
wins are over Detroit’s first-place
Tigers, a three-hitter and a four
hitter. §
The two of them with a 6-2
combined record for a club that
has won 26 and lost 31, are the
top Latin American sports diplo
mats in the nation’s capital.
Cieveland, moving up fast in the
race, saved Detroit’s hide by whip
ping the second-place New York
Yankees,- 5-1. No Cubans there.
Early Wynn, an old 4labama boy,
took charge of the Yanks with a
four-hitter. Only Bobby Brown’s
homer in the ninth robbed him -of
a shutout.
Billy Pierce followed up his re
cent one-hitter against New York
with a 3-1 victory for Chicago over
the Boston ‘Red Sox. Pierce yield
ed seven hits but he struck out
eight, getting Ted Williams twice.
Lou Brissie came to the rescue
of Bob Hooper to save the Phila
delphia A’s 4-2 margin over St
Louis. Although. Brissie. started
Sunday and pitched nine innings

Here’s what Stout of Parkers

Tuesday night he worked 1 1-3
hitless. innings.. Veteran. Wally
Moses drove in two of the runs
off Al Widmar.
Once again the National is all
snarled up with St. Louis and
Brooklyn tied for the lead. Cin
cinnati rallied with three in the
ninth to nip Brooklyn, 6-5, while
St Louis pulled up even with the
Dodgers _on a rousing 14-6 romp
over New York.
Manager Burt = Shotton lifted
starter Don Newcombe when he
walked the leadoff man in the
ninth although Brooklyn led, 5-3.
Relief pitching failed to stop Cincy
with Harry Lowrey delivering a
decisive .bases loaded double.
~ St. Louis ran up the biggest
‘score against the Giants this sea
son to regain a piece of first
Iplace. Leo Durocher’s “Hunch”
‘starter, Kirby Higbe, failed to last
two innings,
~ Fine relief pitching by Bill
Werle and timely hitting in the
sixth inning gave Pittsburgh a 5-3
win over Philadelphia, costing the
Phils a chance to close in on the
lead. Triples by Gus Bell and
Ralph Kiner were the big guns in
the three-run sixth. Werle relieved
winner Bill MacDonald in the
seventh to stamp out a threat.
Vern Bickford’s five-hit pitch
ing was wasted as Chicago blanked
Boston, 3-0, behind Johnny
Schmitz. Bill Serena’s - two-run
homer in the fifth broke a 0-0 tie.

Crackers Seen As
All-Star Game Host
BY STERLING SLAPPEY ' - A
Associated Press Sports Writer
The Atlanta Crackers are nearly a solid choice among
Dixie baseball writers and baseball men to meet the South
ern Association All-Stars July 18.
Apparently Atlanta’s second
consecutive victory -over the once
belligerent Nashville» Vols last
night convinced those minds
which still doubted that the
Crackers are just as good as they
look.
Atlanta whipped Nashville 7-2
to put a firm stop to talk that the
Crackers were in a slump. After
the game newspapermen came out
flatly in picking Atlanta as hosts
for the All-Star game. Hugh
Luby, manager of the New Or
leans Pelicans who rank to a tie
with Nashville for fourth place,
added his Cracker ballot to the
baseball writers.
Luby, a former Cracker, was
ready with his answer: “It cer
tainly looks like Atlanta has the
best chance” to play the All Stars.
Among sports editors and base
ball writers picking the Crackers
for the All-Star game were: Jack
Keady, Arkansas (Little Rock)
Democrat; Orville Henry, Arkan
sas (Little Rock) Gazette; Ed Dan
forth, sports editor Atianta Jour
nal, and Jesse Outlar, baseball
writer Atlanta Constitution.
Al Todd, manager of third place
Memphis, picks Atlanta in a left
handed sort of way with plenty
of hedging. Says Todd, “It's un
likely that we'll (Memphis) play
the All-Stars. We're five and a
half games out of first place with
only a couple of weeks to make it
up. Second place Birmingham is
four and a half out and could
make it if Atlanta and Birming
:i.am’ meet before the July 9 dead
ine.”
The Crackers and Birmingham
do meet, for five games between
July 2-4.
Likeable Eddie Glennon, who
loves Atlanta like Nero loved the
common man of Rome, couldn’t
keep out of the act. Irishman Ed
die, general manager of Birming
ham, stuck his long, well used
tongue in his fat cheek and slyly
said, “Atlanta should win the All-
Star game in a walk.”
What Glennon really thinks re-
mains a total mystery. :
Birmingham and ‘Atkanta: made
a profit while Memphis was
forced into into idleness by rain.
Both won to increase theip leads
over the Chicks by half a game.
Birmingham drummed up a two
run rally in the ninth to whip
Chattanooga 3-2. i R
The Memphis-Mobile and the
New Orleans-Lijtle Rock games
were rained out. :
Dick Hoover allowed Nashville
only four hits for the second night
in a row. Don Liddle pitched the
original Tuesday.. The evening
was “Whitlow Wyatt Night” in
Atlanta. Wyatt, the old Brooklyn
pitching star, helps Dixie Walker
manage Atlanta.” A’ gréat ¢érowd
of 7,101 paying customers turned
out despite a pre-game shower.
The crowd turned on another
shower after the program started,
showering Wyatt with gifts.
Hoover was the fifth Cracker
pitcher in the last six games {o
go the distance and he never was
in serious trouble except in the
second inning when Nashville
scored both it runs. Of the 17
hits in the game all were singles.
In Birmingham Bobo Newsom
of Chattanooga was trying for his
first win over the Barons w(hich
would have given him a victory
over every team in the league.
Bobo lost the.cehanee and.won’t
get another until mid-July. How
ever, Big Bobo has little to be
ashamed of, as though Bobo ever
has been ashamed of anything
Bobo ever did.
A couple of his Lookouts slip
ped on the wet grass and the er
rors were expensive. Karl Olson
got a triple out of what probably
should have been a single for the
winning lick. Ancient Eas!. Cald
well was the winning pitcher even
though he pitched to only three
Lookouts in the ninth.
Dwarf varieties of grain sorgh
ums are suitable for harvesting
with combines, according to agro
nomists.
