Tijat’s plenty, too. For Minnie at the moment is hitting a lusty .379 which isn’t anything much except the top batting average in the league. , \ I don’t know how- your Spanish is, but mine is limited to agua caliente, manana, hasty luigi and Carmen Miranda. But I can tell you absolutely that with “Minnie” baseball “she Is ho-kay” and he owes much of his amazing rookie performance to “good fellas who am much help.” 1 ~v S The White Sox have one other Cuban and a Venezuelan in addition to Minoso. Shortstop Chico Carrasquell is from Venezuela and pitcher Luis Aloma stems from Cuba. The latter is the most fluent of the trio so he acts as interpreter. Things really can be accomplished If you get an interpreter tor the interpreter. However, Minoso is struggling with a Spanish-English dictionary and, while he doesn’t hit anywhere near! 379 in the grammar department, he manages to get the idea acrotts. Currently, he is communting between third base and the outfield;, playing most in the garden,; because the Box can’t do without that big bat. But Minnie manages! to make it perfectly clear that he’d rather be in where the fireworks areJ “The outfield is ho-kay, he pronounces with a glint of flashing gold teeth. “But the business out there she is not so much. If no balls come, all the time It’s with you the stand around.” The slender, 27 year-old slugger has two heroes. One, a long-time idol is Hank Greenberg of the, Cleveland Indians. The oth£r is Carrasquel, who is well on bis way to being “the” shortstop in baseball. “Greenberg I like the long time,”

Giants Score 12-lnning Win Qver Cardinals I New York, June 19 —(UP)— It is hard to keep the team's number ope run producers on the bench at the expensb of a .226 hitter, which explained today why Monte irvm was a last ditch hero for Leo Durocher’s oncoming Giants. ,/ Irvin gave Giants a 5 to 4 victory over the Cardinals in the 42th inning last night with a baseloading single for his 38th run-bht-ted-in for the season —tops for tue team. It was no coincidence that Irvin was playing left field from the start in -place of the fleet but perpetually slumping Bobby Thomson. Thomson, who lost his job In center fields when rookie Willie Mays joined the club, now apparently is out of left field, too, at least until he can wst the muscular Irvin and his big bat from the ■lineup. , j 11.; The victory put the second place Giants 5-% games behind the idle first place Dodgers. Sal Maglie, the top victory man In the majors, won his iftb gome in a relief assignment, yielding one run in three innings, and striking out two batters at climactic moments. Bob Feller, with some airtight help from Lou Brissie, won' his 10th game against a lone defeat, and his sixth straight, 9 to 7 at Boston, where he suffered that one time in two years he had won a loss previously. It was the first igaiHe in tight little Fenway park, and it looked as if he might blow, this one too, when Boston made three runs in the ninth as\both be and Mike Garcia failed to stem the tide, j ’ But Brissie came in and struck out Billy Goodman, then got Johnny Pesky on an infield out with the bases loaded to end the game. At one time Cleveland led, 8 to 0. and Feller apparently coasted a little too much. Al Rosen, Ike Boonb, and Sami Chapman hit Cleveland homers and Pesky connected for one for the Red Sox. The Cubs pulled out a ninth inning victory over <he Braves, 5 to 4j at Chicago when Bob Borkowski singled to drive home new Chicago catcher. Bruce Edwards/ Edwards, a ball of fire since leaving Brooklyn, had doubled to start the rally. Johnny Klipp«tein. who struck out two batters and got the third on a force out,, was the winner; Sid Gordon hit a Boston homThera, welre no other games, scheduled in the majors yesterday.
