Nationals Win All-Star Game By 54 Score PITTSBURGH (UPD — Fred Haney, manager of the victorious Natoinal Leaguers, is going to go with the same players in the second All-Star game at Los Angeles Aug. 3 because he feels they are strong enough to win again. “We were good enough yesterday, and we’ll be good enough again when we play in my own back yard," said Haney, who is from Hollywood. This is the first year in which there will be two All-Star games and under the rules, Haney can add three more players to his squad and pick a new group of pitchers. “My pitchers did all right," he said as he reviewed Tuesday’s 5-4 triumph over the American League in the 26th annual AllStar game. "And I’m not going to change horses.” . “Neither am I,” echoed his neighbor, Casey Stengel, the skipper of the American League club who is from Giendate, about 10 miles front -Hollywood. Considers More Righthanders But he added quickly that “I might go with more righthanders out there in Los Angeles] because of that short left field screen.” It was a left-handed pitcher—his own ace Whitey Ford — who cost Casey his sixth defeat in nine All-Star games Tuesday. Coming on in the eighth inning with the American League ahead, 4-3, Ford quickly got in a jam. He yielded a single to lead-off batter Ken Boyer, pinch-hitting for winning pitcher Johnny Antonelli. Boyer was sacrificed to second and scored when Hank Aaron rifled a single to center. Up came Willie Mays, who hits Ford like he owns him. Mays drove a long deep ball to right center and it hooked away from centerfielder Harvey Kuenn just when it looked as if he might catch the ball. It went for a triple and scored Aaron with the Winning run. Another left hander, Bud Daley, Came in and put out die fire, but it was too late. Mays Climaxes Game Mays’ blow was the climax to a wild finish in this mid-summer game, played before 34,763 fans in Forbes Field, including Vice President Richard Nixon, who threw out the first ball. For six and a half innings, pitching dominated. Eddie Mathews clubbpd Early Wynn, the 39-year-old American League starter, for a homerun in the first inning and Al KSTifte matched that blow with a homer off Lew -Burdette ia tbft fourth.. Burdette had come on to relieve Don Drysdgle, who had pitched three perfect innings. Shortstop Ernie Banks greeted AL pitcher Jim Bunning with his second double of the game in the seventh. Catcher Del Crandal, getting his first All-Star hit in the three games in which he has appeared, singled and Banks scored with the tie-breaking run. Crandall went to second on the futile throw to the plate in an effort to get Banks. Bill Mazeroski singled to score Crandall. But the lead didn’t last long. Elroy Face, relief ace of the Pittsburgh Pirates who has won 12 games this yehr Without a loss and who hasn’t been beaten since Memorial Day, 1958, retired the first two men who faced him in the top of the eighth and then ran into trouble. Nellie Fox started it wjth a single. Kuenn walked and Vic Power singled to drive home Fox. Ted Williams also -walked, filling the |j3SCS. Catcher Gus Triandos lined a double down the left field foul line and Kuenn and Power scored to put the American Leaguers in front, 4-3. Haney came in with Antonelh, who walked pinch-hitter Roy Stovers but' then got pinch-hitter Sherm - LoUar. to AHR*®* mto a force play. For pitching to those two batters, the San Francisco Giants southpaw picked up the victory. . r. Don Elston came in to pitch the ninth for Haney and did the job, but not before the American Leaguers scared the daylights out of him. With two out, Fox hit one into the right field stands that was foul by only two feet. Kuenn drove one out of the park, too, down the left field line, but it was foul by about 12 feet Then with the count three and two, Kuenn popped out and it was all over.
