Cardinals Win For Stan Hack In First Game By FRED DOWN United Press International Smilin’ Stan Hack is only minding the store for the St. Louis Cardinals but he aims to show a profit just the same. Announced as the iterim manager when Fred Hutchinson was fired Wednesday, Hack made a successful debut Wednesday night in a 5-3 victory over the Milwaukee Braves. Hack’s objective is to make up a 2%-game deficit and beat out the Cincinnati Redlegs for fourth place.

The Detroit Tigers beat the New York Yankees, 5-2, and the Boston Red Sox topped the Kansas City Athletics, 4-2, after a 6-3 defeat in the only American League activity. Rookie Gene Green knocked in two runs with a homer and a triple as the Cardinals kayoed 20game winner Warren Spahn in six innings and handed the Milwaukee southpaw ace his 11th setback. Banks hit a two- run homer high over the left field roof at Connie Mack Stadium, Philadelphia, and rookie right ,- hander Bob Anderson limited the Phillies to five hits in the rain-shortened game. Mickey Mantle hit his 41st homer, a blast that cleared the right field roof at Detroit and was estimated at 500 feet, but Jim Bunning held the Yankees to only six other singles for his 13th triumph. Reno Bertoia knocked in three runs with two homers as the Tigers dealt 21-game winner Bob Turley his seventh loss and took the season series, 12-10. Bill Renna, subbing for Ted Williams, hit a two- run homer and Don Buddin and Frank Malzone also homered for the Red Sox, who broke an eight-game losing streak in the nightcap. The Athletics won the opener on a grand slam t homer by catcher Harry Chiti. — Don Jordan Winner Over Caspar Ortega PORTLAND, Ore.

Fred Hutchinson Is Fired By Cardinals ST. LOUIS (UPD — Fred Hutchinson, voted “manager of the year” only last season for his second - place finish with the St. Louis Cardinals, had only one firm job offer today —a chance to manage Seattle once more. He pitched for the Pacific Coast League club 20 years ago and managed the team in 1955. Hutch was ushered out as the floundering Cards’ pilot Wednesday in a “hearts and flowers” type of press conference presided over by general manager Bing Devine. Devine announced Stan Hack had agreed to become one of the shortest - term interim managers in the history of baseball. He started Wednesday night and will direct the team in the remaining nine games. Hack, along with the other coaches, Terry Moore and Al Hollingsworth, will fulfill their existing contracts. But none will be around in 1959. Devine said Eddie Stanky, exCardinal manager now coaching for the Cleveland Indians, had been contacted as a prospect for a front office job with the permission of Cleveland’s general manager Frank Lane. Devine said the club hoped to name a new manager “as soon as possible sifter the close of the season.” Yanks' Boss Probes Victory-Party Tiff NEW YORK (UPD — General manager George Weiss is expected to demand a full report today on the New York Yankees’ off - the - field exploits which reached a climax on a victoryparty tiff between pitcher Ryne Duren and coach Ralph Houk. Manager Casey Stengel branded reports of a fracas between Duren and Houk as “a lotta bunk” but Weiss won’t be satisfied until he has the complete story from private detectives who shadowed players on the club’s last western trip. Newsmen with the club agreed an incident had taken place. The only disagreement was over the seriousness of the affair. The New Vork Post said it was “a bloddy and bitter fight.” It § also reported the Yankees staged a victory “parade through Union Station (Kansas City). . .that was quite a contrast to the public impression of the staid win-as-usual Yankees.” Other writers presented a much watered-down version. Joe Trible wrote in the New York Daily News that Houk took a playful back-hand swipe St Duren after the pitcher pushed ■ an unlighted cigar in the coach’s ■ face. Ken Smith said in the New York Mirror that Houk’s backhand slap grazed Duren’s cheek. Harold Rosenthal said in the Herald Tribune the players had a victory parade at Union Station but he also played down the duren-Houk. incident as a oneslap affair. The Yankee writers agreed not to report the story but it “leaked anyway. All said the victory party “was quiet as those things go.” Bcwling Scores Major League W L Pts.
