Jackets Nose Out Portland By 2-1 Score The Decatur Yellow Jackets tuned up for this afternoon’s “must" NEIC game, with a 2-1 win over Portland in eight innings Tuesday evening under the Worthman Field lights. Jerry Egly tallied the winning run with tw<r out in the eighth inning, handing righthander Dave Gay his third victory of the season. Gay scattered seven Portland hits enroute to the victory. The tall righty whiffed 11 Portland hitters and issued only two free walks. Portland ruined his bid for a second consecutive shutout when they scored the tying run in the sixth inning. Gay had hurled a one-hit shutout against Huntington his last time out. Egly, the sophomore second baseman, went all the way to second on a Portland error with two out in the first extra inning. Moments later he romped home with the winning run when Williams, Portland shortstop, threw over the first baseman’s head on Jim Martin’s grounder. It was the second time in two days the Jackets had won a 2-1 verdict in eight innings. Take Lead The Jackets took the lead in the second inning when Bob Ladd and Tom Maddox opened the inning with back-to-back singles. Ladd was thrown out at the plate, however, attempting to score on a passed ball. Maddox went to second on the play, stole third, and scored on Bill Conrad’s perfect sacrifice squeeze bunt. ( Gay sailed through the first fiye Innings without much trouble until Portland touched him for three singles in the sixth. McDaniel singled with one out, and after

The first program Wolf is planning is a summer camp where he’ll take a long look at the players the Pistons drafted last month and some o f the veterans who didn’t play much last year. He wants to find out which players can help the .team most. Although he admits the Piston job is a '‘challenge,” Wolf is optimistic about Detroit’s chances in the NBA in the future. “Next year I think any one of the five teams in the Western Division could /be a threat. Los Angeles showed it was vulnerable in the second half of last season and St. Louis had to get the best out of its players to finish second,” Wolf said. “The most important thing could be a good start,” he said. Last season Detroit got off to a poor start and just edged out San Francisco for third place in the Western Division standings. Bowling Green Star Signed By Warriors SAN FRANCISCO (UPD—Nate Thurmond of Bowling Green, the No. 1 draft choice of the San Francisco Wurriors, has signed a two-year contract with the National Basketball Association team.

Jim Maloney Equals Major Strikeout Mark By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer Manager Fred Hutchinson and the Cincinnati Reds always said that Jim Maloney’s hard stuff would overcome his hard luck. . . A 6-foot, 2-inch, 200-pound fireballer from Fresno, Calif., Maloney won nine games for the Reds in 1962 and would have won more except that his teammates developed paralysis of the bat when he appeared on the mound. They didn’t score a run for him over the last 20 innings of the ’62 season. Maloney has been getting some runs this season and Tuesday night he didn’t need any luckjust a ninth-inning helping hand from Bill Henry — when he equalled the modern major league record by striking out eight straight batters in a 2-0 vic, tory over the Milwaukee Braves. Jim went on to fan a game-total of 16 Braves — the third highest single-game total in modern baseball history. Ties Surkont, Podres Maloney’s eight consecutive strikeouts tied the mark previously shared by Max Surkont of the 1953 Braves and Johnny Podres of the 1962 Los Angeles Dodgers. Bob Feller and Sandy Koufax share the game strikeout record of 18 and Dizzy Dean once struck out 17 batters in a game. Maloney began his string of strikeouts with the last out in the first inning and ran it to the first out in the fourth before Hank Aaron grounded out. He had allowed only two hits when he walked his third and fourth batters of the game in the ninth and Henry went in to retire the side. It was Maloney’s sixth win against one loss and he has struck out 58 batters in 60 1-3 innings. His powerful performance has helped to compensate for Bob Purkey’s slow start due to a sore arm as well as the 1-7 record sported by Joey Jay. Frank Robinson singled in the first inning and hit a sacrifice fly in the third to drive in both Cincinnati runs. Bob Hendley suffered his third defeat compared to four wins. Giants Beal Phils The San Francisco Giants retained first place with a 3-2 decision over the Philadelphia Phillies, the Los Angeles Dodgers downed the New York Mets, 4-2, the Pittsburgh Pirates nipped the Houston Colts, 6-5, and the St. Louis Cardinals shaded the Chicago Cubs, 5-4, in other NL action. In the American -League, the New York Yankees defeated the Kansas City Athletics, 7-4, the Minnesota Twins routed the Boston Red Sox, 8-2, the Baltimore Orioles topped the Detroit Tigers, 4-2, and the Chicago Whitt Sox beat the Washington Senators, 4-3. Jose Pagan, hitless in 20 previous trips to the plate, homered in the eighth inning to give the Giants’ BiUy O’Dell his sixth

The final official results showed Hayes the winner, 676-667. straight win. O’Dell found a worthy rival in rookie Ray Culp, who yielded only four hits and struck out Willie Mays and Willie McCovey three times each, before yielding the decisive blow to Pagan. Podres Wins Third Johnny Podres pitched a fivehitter to record his third win behind a seven-hit Dodger attack that included two key doubles by Ron Fairly.

Jim Pagliaroni drove in our runs with a single and a threerun homer for the Pirates as Al Mcßean, who pitched four strong innings of middle-inning relief, increased his record to 4-1.

Mantle, Maris Clout Homers As Yanks Win By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer Are M&M back in business? And, if they are, how long will it be before some of those American League “contenders’’ are out of business? The questions are enough to give the New York Yankees’ rivals the jitters today because it could mean that Ralph Houk's world champions are ready for their long-awaited big push. Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris have been awfully quiet for $172,000-worth of home run hitters this season and it’s no coincidence that the Yankees have made several false starts while other teams shuttled in and out of the AL lead. But Mantle’s big bat exploded Tuesday night and the thunder was so loud it apparently managed to wake up Maris, too. Mantle, the MVP of the 1962 season, who started Tuesday night’s game with six homers and a .292 batting average, hit a three-run homer in the first inning and a two-run homer in the fifth in the Yankees’ 7-4 victory over the Kansas City Athletics. The outburst gave Mantle respectable season totals of eight homers, 20 runs batted in and a .303 average. And then, to and behold, the long-slumbering Maris woke up with a homer of his own. Sir Roger’s season totals still show only five homers, 10 runs batted in and a .239 average but his history is that he follows Mantle off on a “ tear.” Jim Bouton went 5 2-3 innings before turning over a 7-3 lead to Steve Hamilton and received credit for his fifth win. The Yankees remained one game behind the Chicago White Sox and Baltimore Orioles, who are tied for first place in the AL. Trie White Sox scored their third straight victory when they shaded the Washington Senators, 4-3, the Orioles beat the Detroit Tigers, 4-2, and the Minnesota Twins whipped the Boston Red Sox, 8-2, in other AL games. Los Angeles at Cleveland was rained out. Strikes Oat Sixteen In the National League, Jim Maloney struck out 16 batters including a record-equalling eight in a row as the Cincinnati Reds beat the Milwaukee Braves, 2-0, the

WEDNESDAY, MAY 22, 1963

Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Houston Colts, 6-5, the Los Angeles Dodgers topped the New York Mets, 4-2, and St. Louis edged out the Chicago Cubs, 5-4, and the San Francisco Giants defeated the Philadelphia Phillies, 3-2. Mike Hershberger singled home the Whie Sox’ first run and contributed a single to a three-run sixth-inning rally that also included singles by Floyd- Robinson and Ron Hansen and a double by Joe Cunningham. Relief pitcher Hoyt Wilhelm preserved Johnny Buzhardt’s fourth win despite being tagged for a two-ruh homer by Don Lock. Gaines Paces Orioles Dick HSU struck out Bill Freehan and Dick McAuliffe to end an eighth-inning Tiger threat and enable the Orioles to score their seventh victory in their last eight games. Joe Gaines homered in the second inning and drove in another run with a sacrifice fly to lead Baltimore’s seven-hit attack. The win raised Chuck Estrada’s record to 3-1. The Twins routed rookie Dave Morehead with seven runs in the third inning and breezed behind the eight-hit pitching of Jim Perry, who won his second game of the season. Lu Clinton and Dick Stuart homered to produce the Red Sox runs.
