Buhl Pitches Braves Near To Loop Lead By MILTON RICHMAN (United Press Sports Writer) Bob Buhl, a guy with the "Indian sign" on Brooklyn, fixed things today so that the Milwaukee Braves were giving Cincinnati the high sign that they're about ready to take over first place again in the National League. Buhl care of matters this way: He defeated the Dodgers for the fifth straight time Thursday night, 2- scattering six hits and pitching the Braves to within four percentage points of the pace-setting Redlegs, who bowed to the Phillies, 7-4. Buhl's fine performance over the Dodgers earned him his 10th victory of the campaign just before a thunderstorm washed out what was scheduled to be the second game of a twi-night doubleheader. Big Joe Adcock got the Braves started with his 13th home run In the fourth inning off Roger Craig — his fifth off Dodger pitching — and Milwaukee added an insurance run in the fifth when Eddie Mqthews singled home Danny O’Connell- . . ■ '.7 . Milwaukee's victory cut a full game off Cincinnati’s lead, the Redlegs falling victim to a fiverun rally by the Phillies in the ninth inning. Trailing Art Fowler 3- until the ninth, the Phils fashioned their outburst with a tworun double by Marv Blaylock and a two-run single by Elmer Vaio. Southpaw Harvey Haddix, nicked for a two-run homer by Ed Bailey in the second inning, was credited with his seventh triumph. Pittsburgh moved into fourth place by sweeping a doubleheader from Chicago, 2-1 and 5-4. Ronnie Kline posted his eighth victory, in the opener as Bill Virdon homered for one run and Dale Long and Jack Shepard each doubled for the other. Ernie Banks' 22nd home run accounted for the Cubs' lone run. Long’s first home run in more than a month broke a 4-all tie in the eighth inning of the nightcap and gained reliever Elroy Face his seventh triumph. Long also tripled with the bases full off loser -Sunr-Jones in the to drive in tour runs in-’the finale. Al Dark -and- Don Liddle, twv ex-Giants, teamed up to lead the Cardinals to a 5-3 decision over New York. Dark's sacrifice fly with the bases frill in the seventh drove in the winning run while Liddle, who relieved starter Tom Poholsky. was credited with the victory. Stan Musial. Hank Thompson and Willie Mays each hit homers. In the American League, the Yankees lengthened their lead to 754 games—largest margin of the year—in beating the Indians, 9-5, while the tiled Sox defeated the second-place White Sox, 3-1. Hank Bauer, who learned he was the father of an eight-pound, nine-ounce boy shortly after the game, delivered a pinch bomer with the bases full, the first grand slam wallop of his career, to help Johnny Kucks nail down his 12th victory. Bauer's blow came, off reliever Don Mossi and offset a three-run homer by Al Smith in the fourth. Jim Piersall's two • run homer In the ninth inning gave the Red Sox their victory over the White ■Sox. Piersall's blow- caine off Jack Harshman. who Ifeid homeretf igmself in the eighty to pat Chicago ahead. Boston, tied the score in the bottom of the eighth on Norm Zauchin’s single and BiUy Goodman's double. Leo Kiely was the winner in relief of Frank Sullivan.

Billy Hoeft pitched Detroit to a 4-2 victory over Washington with a neat four-hit effort. The Tigers hopped on loser- Bob Wiesler for two runs in the first inning and then clinched matters with two more runs in the fourth. Jim Lemon honiered for Washington. Left hander Bill Wight of Baltimore turned in his first shutout of the year in blankfhg Kansas City, 4-0. Bob Nieman contributed a three-run homer off Art Ditmar for the Orioles, who snapped a four-game, losing streak and took their 10th game in 12 meetings with the Athletics this season. ‘ ►— ' TV Report Monday On Girl Scout Camp A TV report on the national Girl Scout encampment held recently at the Highland fecreatlon area in Michigan, Will be televised over the “Home” show Monday morning, over station W.K.J.G.
