Cleveland Indians
Break Lopat Jinx
BY JOE REICHLER
Associated Press Sports Writer \
It tcok nearly two years, a black cat, 15,000 rabbits’
feet, a message to Garcia and some solid socking for Cleve
land to break through the Ed Lopat jinx. ; _
But that's what the Indians ac
complished last night when they
sent the stylish southpaw to the
showers in two innings with a six
run assault and went on to whip
the New York Yankees, 8-2,
Cleveland’'s victory, it’s third
straight over the Yankees, and it's
ninth in a row, overshadowed even
the Chicago White Sox’ sweep of
a doubleheader from the Boston
Red Sox, 6-56 and 2-0,
Not Since June, '49
Not since June 17, 1949 had the
Indians been able to conquer Lo
pat. Since then, the lefthander
beat them 11 straight times, twice
this season. He entered the fray
with an unblemished record of
eight wins without a defeat.
Mexican Mike Garcia, beseeched
by numerous messages to “beat
Lopat,” did it handily with a well=
scattered 10-hit performance. It
was his fifth victory against three
defeats.
“I guess the rabbits’ feet and
the black cat did it,” Lopat sighed
in the clubhouse.
Lopat was referring to the good
luck charms handed out to the
first 15,000 of the 20,217 fans who
entered Cleveland Stadium,
As if that wasn’t enough, a zany
fan tried to break Lopat's hoodoo
all by himself by running out to
the mound with & black cat as the
Yankee hurled was tossing warm=
up pitches in the last of the first
inning,
Biggest Turnout
The years viggest turnout at
Comiskey Park—42,7lß—hollered
itself hoarse as the White Sox
whipped two former teammates—
Ray Scarborough and Bill Wight—
to open up a three and a half
game lead In the American Lea=
gue race.
Bill Pierce and Saul Rogovin,
former members of the Detroit
hurling corps, turned in route-go=
ing efforts.
Detroit’s Tigers came from be
hind with two runs in the last
half of the ninth to nip the Wash
ington Senators, 6-5. Hal New=
houser went the distance to reg
ister hig fifth victory.
Rookie Lou Limmer hit a grand
slam home run to lead the Phila
delphia Athletics to a 7-6 triumph
over the St. Louls Browns.
Stan Musial smashed two hom
ers and a single, drove in three
runs and boosted his average to
.380 as the St. Louis Cardinals
chécked New York’s second place
challenge with a 7-2 victory,
The Cincinnati Reds roared
from behind a 7-0 deficit with
three tallies in the eighth and
seven in the ninth to down the
Boston Braves, 10-7, and Gus Bell
hit for the cycle—a single, double,
triple and homer—to lead Pitts~
burgh to a 12-4 victory over the
Philadelphia Phillies.
Rain washed out the n(ifit game
between Brooklyn and cago.

Crackers Win
By Thé Associated Press
Mobile’s climb from the cellar
featured last night’s bobtailed ac
tivity in the Southern Association.
The Bears clubbed the New Or
leans Pelicans into the dark spot,
8-3, for their fourth triumph in
their last five starts. The decision
gave the Bruins the series three
games to one and marked their
first winning set since May 2.
In the only other game, Atlanta
parried the latest bid of the hust
ling young Chattanooga Lookouls
for a first division berth, 6-3. The
victory gave the Crackers third
place by one point over the idle
Nashville Vols.
Pete Wojey, veteran Mobile
righthander, had the Pels well in
hand until he tired in the seventh
and required relief from Gil Mills,
It was Pete’s first winning effort
since he hurled a five-inning, two=
hit shutout at the Memphis Chicks
on April 22, The success gave him
a 2-6 mark for the year.
First baseman Wayne Belardi,
hitting an anemic .221, got his
seventh homer of the campaign.
Spook Jacobs was the Bears hit=
ting leader with a double and two
singles. The second sacker also
scored twice.
Lefthander Don Liddle, making
his third start since returning to
Atlanta froma Milwaukee, hurled
brilliantly until his old bugaboo—
lack of control—finished him in
the seventh.
The Crackers, fighting stubborn
1y to stay in the first division, rak
ed Jim Pearce and Dick Welteroth
for 10 hits and whipped Pearce
for the third straight time. Chat
tanooga has yet to win a game in
Atlanta’s Ponce de Leon park this
year,
All the teams swing back into
action tonight, \
