Maglie Hurls One-Hitler To - ’ I ! -/V, ';'■ | ‘ : Down Pirates New York, May 5(—(UP) — Pitcher Sal Maglie of the Giants, cn easy-going soul, isn’t mad at anybody except Pittsburgh hatters and he only hates them one at a time. \ | \ -•'I His latest indignation today -was (Greeted at Pete Castiglione, who broke up his no-hitter ,;| n a ver y unusual manner yesterday—on the Second pitch, of the game which the Giants won, 3to 1. Castig Done, hottest hitter in the majors at present, blasted a< leadoff triple over left fielder Whitey Lockman's head and scored on an infield out. Thereafter, \ Maglie, the *pride o' Niagara Falls, yielded nothing that remotely resembjed & hßij < Not a Pirate batter got first base after the second inning jiS Maglie turned in onie of the great jobs of his career. And at the finish, when he realized how close had come to no-hit fame, he couldn't help but recall what another Pirate hitter dic| to him | last summer, 1 The culprit then was \ Gus Bell, who hit a homer to snap his string of Scoreless innings at 45 when he was.just four putouts shy of one of the most respected records in the National league books. At that time Maglie was out to top Carl Hubbell’s string of 46ft consecutive scoreless innings, ’ and he might have made ’it but for the blast of another Pirate batter. Maglie received elegant hitting support from his colleagues as the rebounding Giants won their fourth game out of the last five* after! dropping 11 in a row. Bobby Thomson, Hapk Thompson, Spider Jorgensen, and Monte Irvin all contributed homers. figured in Maglie's Htest disappointment, too. because he drove in the only Pirate run on the infield ottt. In other National league games the .Braves regained first place by defeating the Cubs, 9 to 3; the Phillies outlasted the Cardinals, 6 to 4,“ and the Reds upset the Dodgers, 5 to 4. In the America.l league, -the Yankees took over first place by topping, the Browns, 8 td 1. fdr tlteir sixth straight victory; the White Sox downed the Senators, 6 to 5. In 11 Innings; Detroit topped Boston, 8 to‘ 4, and the Athletics edged Cleveland, 3 to 1. Vera Bickford became the first National league pitcher to win four games with a five-hitter over the Cubs in which Bob Elliott hit a pair of two-run homers to lead the Braves at b»t- Hank-’Sauer drove in all of Chicago’s runs with a homer and a two-run double. 1 Steady nine-hit pitching by Russ Meyer was only part of the coloi ful Philly hurler’s contribution in the victory over the Cardinals. He elso delivered the key hit, a basesloaded two-run single which puF Philadelphia ahead for good? Earlier, the Phils madg four unearned runs on one hit off Howie Pollet iiF'the first Inning. Meyer ‘•truck out fiveTncluding the entire side in the third. Peanuts Lowrey and Joe Garagiola hit Card Cincinnati came from behind to score three runs in the fifth .and edge the disappointing Dodgers on an infield out and a pair of singles by John Pramesa and John Wyrostek.
