THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

Dodger Rookie Saves Second Game In Row NEW YORK (INS) —Cleveland can have its Herb Score. Philadelphia can have its Jim Owens. The Brooklyn Dodgers are more than satisfied with their pitching discovery, Ed Roebuck. Roebuck, affectionately known as “Sear#’’ in the Dodger dugout, is just what the doctor ordered for the Dodgers, who are on the verge of cracking a modem major league record for consecutive games won at the start of a season. The 23-year-old righthander, an 18-14 pitcher with Montreal last season, saved a game for Carl Erskine Monday night and 24 hours later came back to wrap up the Dodgers’ eighth straight. This time, Don Newcomb got the decision at Philadelphia —a 7-to-6 verdict that brought the undefeated Brooks within one game of the modern record shared by the New York Giants and St. Louis. The 1884 Giants chalked up their first 12 in a row. a The angular side-arming Roebuck pitched 2 2-3 hitless, scoreless innings in his major league debut on Monday, taking over for Erskine with one out, two on base and the cunt 2-and-0. Tuesday night he was palled upon to protect a precarious one-run edge with one out in the eighth and one man on. He made a bad throw to second on Peanuts Lowrey’s tap to the box to put two on before getting Bobby Morgan to ground into, a duble play. In the ninth, Granny Hamner raced to second as Sandy Amoros booted his single but Roebuck retired the next three to keep Granny right where he was. Don Zimmer, who was hitless in seven trips to the plate this season, provided the winning margin in the eighth with his first major league homerun-a two-run blast oft southpaw Curt Simmons. Carl Furillo also slammed a two-run homer for Brooklyn and Roy Campanella added a solo job, bth off loser Owens. The International League rookie of the year was making his first major league start and was doing well until rain halted play for 36 minutes. He returned in the sixth to have the roof fall in and Lynn Lovenguth come to the rescue for two runds. The Phils knocked winner Newcombe out with four runs in the seventh, two on a Bobby Morgan homer. Willie Jones almost tied it up in the eighth with another two-run blast' off Jim Hughes and the crowd of 19.930 set up a jjin hat faded with every Roebuck pitch. St. Louis topped Cincinnati, 6 to 5, in an 11-inning night game at St. Louis. Milwaukee defeated Chicago, 3 to 2, in a daylight contest. Threatening weather postponed Pittsburgh’s game at New York. Kansas City poured over five runs in the ninth inning to knock off the Indians, 8 to 7, in the only American League game played. Washington's doubleheader at Boson ifras washed out. Gus Bells ninth-inning homer sent the game into overtime at St. Louis but Bill Sarni's basesloaded pinch single ended it after two extra innings. Harvey Haddix was coasting with a five-run lead until the Redlegs packed four runs into the sixth inning, three of them on Ted Kluszeyski's four homer of the season. Barney Schultz, who came on in the 10th, recorded his first major league triumph. Bob Hooper took the loss. The Cardinals asked waivers for the unconditional release of veteran Vic Raschi. who came up to the Yankees in 1946 to compile an amazing pitching record of 120 victories and only 50 defeat#. Manager Eddie Stanky said he regrets having to part with the J6-year-old hurler but explained he must give the younger members of the club every consideration. Chicago’s Bob Rush allowed only four hits but four walks in the eighth gave Milwaukee and Gene Conley tie win. Billy Bruton opened the inning by walking. Hauk Aaron sacrificed him to second. Ed Mathews was walked intentionally and both runnet s advanced when Bobby Thompson grounded out. Joe '.Adcock walked and Johnny Logan did the same to force in the run. Conley gave up eight hits. Score, the 860,000 bonus pitcher, was riding the crest of a nlneMrikeout job and had a 7-to-3 lead going into the ninth inning at Kansas City. But the A’s knocked him out with a walk by Bill Wilson, a Joe Demaeittri single and Wilmer Shantz double end drove in one run and left tunners at second and third with none out. Mike Garcia relieved Score and was clubbed for a triple by Vic Power, a double by Elmer Vaio, Jim Finigan's walk. Bill Renna’s single and Wilson’s bases-loaded single. Zernial and Finlgan homered for the A s° In the early innings. Al Rosen hit two for the Tribe and Ralph Kiner added another. Charlie Bishop, who relieved starter Cloyd Boyer in the ninth, was the winner. •
