Braves Extend Winning Streak To Seven Games By MILTON RICHMAN United Press International Funny game, this baseball. The Braves are leading by eight games and feel like shooins; the Yankees lead by 11%
and feel like sad-sacks — but they’ll have to go out and practice today whether they like it or not. Everything is hunky - dory with the breezing Braves, who ran their winning streak to seven games Sunday by sweeping a pair from the Phillies, 5-1 and 4-1. On the other hand, everything is all fouled up with the Yankees, who dropped a 6-5 decision to the Red Sox and now have lost eight of their last 11 starts. Since Aug. 2, their lead has shrunk from 17 games. The schedule says the Yanks have today off. Casey Stengel ' says differently. He c alled a ' practice session for 10 o'clock in the morning. , “I don’t know “whats-a-matter.” he grumbled, "But I’m gonna find., out..in.a.hurry.” — Sox Continue Streak Anyway, the second - place White Sox, still entertaining I notions of catching the Yankees, won their fifth straight by beating the Indians, 3-2. Baltimore nipped Washington, 2-1, and Kansas City defeated Detroit, 4-1. San Francisco, took over second place in the National League i with an 8-6 triumph over Chicago, i Cincinnati swept a doubleheader i from Pittsburgh, 4-3 and 7-5, i while Los Angeles earned a split II by taking the nightcap, 9-3, after St. Louis won the opener, 12-7. i Juan Pizarro’s four-hit pitching and Frank Torre’s grapd - slam , homer off Don Cardwell gave the Braves their opening - game vic- , tory, and in the nightcap, Lew ! Burdette hurled a five - hitter for ’ his 13th triumph. Wes Covington • hit his 22nd homer and also : scored the decisive run on Johnny Logan's perfect squeeze bunt in the fourth inning. Six home runs were hit in the ' Red Sox - Yankee game but per- ' haps even more significant were the three singles and a double by Ted Williams that sent his average up to .316. Homers Wins Game Earl Battey’s eighth - inning homer off Jim Grant broke a 2-2 tie between the White Sox and Indians. Lefty Billy Pierce gave up nine hits in posting his 13th
’■‘L' >****'' — r - — victory. Connie Johnson of the Orioles hurled a three - hitter and produced a sacrifice fly that brought in the winning run in the fifth inning. Brooks Robinson slid home with the deciding run after second baseman Herb Plews of the Senators caught Johnson's pop-up in short right field. The four - hit pitching of exreliever Bob Grim and a threerun homer by Harry Chiti helped the A's sweep their three - game series from the Tigers. A total of seven home runs were hit in the Giants - Cubs game but it was Willie Mays’ 21st homer with two on in the fourth that proved the payoff blow. The wallop gave San Francisco an 8-4 lead after which Ernie Banks clouted his 38th homer with one on in the sixth. Bobby Thomson hit two homers. Pirate Hopes Drop The two victories by the Redlegs dropped the Pirates into third place, nine games off the pace, and just about made them forget any possible pennant notions they may have entertained. Jerry Lynch of the Redlegs, a one-time Pirate, was the man who hurt Pittsburgh most. His third hit in the opener was a ninth - inning single that drove in the winning run and he collected two more hits in the finale, including a two- run homer. ; Stan Musial had four hits while , Ken Boyer and Del Ennis each drove in three runs to help the i Cards beat the Dodgers in the , opener. Danny McDevitt, recent- i ly recalled from the minors, held i the Cards to six hits in the j second game. i — i Headon Crash Fatal To Anderson Woman PENDLETON, Ind. (UPI) —Mrs. < Marva J.

Patterson And Harris Title Bout Tonight i LOS ANGELES (UPI) — Cham- ' pion Floyd Patterson and challenger Roy Harris of Cut and - Shoot, Tex., two brawny young i athletes with remarkable records, . fight tonight for the world heayyr weight championship — the ring’s , golden crown. t Shortly after sundown, they will r square off in Wrigley Field for their scheduled 15-rounder in ; which Patterson — who knocked i out 14 of the last 15 men to facie j him — will try to blast back- - woodsman Harris’ perfect record / of 22 straight professional victorr ies. i They are not only the youngest > pair to fight for the coveted diar dem, but they apparently boast i the most enviable records of any duo in the division’s title history. • The 23-year-old champion lost but - one of his 34 starts, and that on j a very questionable decision. Harr ris, 25, is unbeaten. Because of their records, each should be extremely victory-con-I scious when he starts tossing the ■ ! eight-ounce gloves before a crowd ! that will include Texas oil, cattle I and rice millionaires and Hollys wood stars of the entertainment i world.
Floyd Is Big Favorite The main event is slated for 8 p.m., p.d.t. — 11 p.m., e.d.t. Because of his punch, the champion from Mt. Vernon. NY, is favored at 6-1 to tag Harris with his first defeat, and at 3-1 to win on a knockout. Betting has been very light. Likewise, the ticket sale for Wrigley Field — from $5 to S3O a pew—has been disappointingly light. Promoter Bill Rosensohn, staging his first fight, originally dreamed of a $500,000 gate; but now he will be lucky to beat the California state recordof $228,500 set by Sugar Ray Robinson and Bobo Olson at the same field May 18, 1956. The paid attendance is expected to approximate 13,000. Patterson hasn’t fought in practically a year. His last title defense was on Aug. 22, last year against amateurish Pete Rademacher, who had Patterson on the floor before being knocked out by the champion. No Home TV-Radio Harris hasn’t fought since last Oct. 29 —about 10 months—when he outpointed Willi Besmanoff of Germany. A six-month hitch in the Army curtailed his fistic activities, and tonight’s battle will be his first outside of Texas and hs first on any brand of TV. The fight will be sent by closedcircuit TV to 146 theatres and arenas in 115 cities in the United States and Canada. There will be neither home TV nor hotne radio Regardless of tonight's gate and theatre-TV receipts, Harris will receive a flat guaranteed SIOO,OOO. He is the first heavy challeriglr to get a flat assurance. He got it to make certain he wouldn’t stage a 'possible runout under urging from the riual International Boxing Club. Patterson gets a $210,000 guarantee, with the possibility of receiving more through various percentages of the net gate and TVtheatre receipts.
