Trailing 3-2 in the top of the sixth, the Yanks scored eight times and held on for their first win against two losses. The loss was the third for the Senators, who own one victory. The Yanks had scored once in the opening inning on a pair of Senator errors and a single by Jinf Call, but the Senators came back with two runs in their half of the first on a walk to Ike Mendez, a single by Duane Moser, a walk to Rich Eloph and Dick Harmon’s double. Regain Lead Bill Rickord doubled to open the Yankee second and later scored on an error to tie the score, but the Senators scored in their half of the second on a pair of errors, to regain a 3-2 lead. Senator hurler Ron Landrum and Dave Geimer of the Yanks threw shutout ball over the next three innings before the Yankees erupted for eight runs in the sixth inning to take a commanding lead. The big inning started after one out. Geimer was hit by a pitch and Call singled. Jim McConnell reached base on an error and Rickord was hit by a pitch. Ken Wolfe singled and after Norb Hess popped out, Jim Wolpert was hit by a pitch, Jerry Rich walked and Geimer, hitting for the second time in the inning, singled.
The Senators came back in their half of the sixth to score three times on an error and singles by Dave Knittie and Greg Beery, biit the rally fell shot. Senators AB R H E I. Mendez, cf 10 0 0 J.

"The Bullpen" By Bob Shraluka Schultz Archer THE White Sox cop all the honors this week, with big Tom Schultz being selected as ‘‘hitter of the week,” and southpaw Rick Archer as “pitcher of the week.” SCHULTZ really had himself a batting spree during a pair of White Sox triumphs last week. “Hoss,” as he is known by other players in the league, blasted put three runs and a pair of doubles good for eight RBl’s. In a 14-0 win over the Senators Wednesday, the big outfielder cracked two home runs and a double to drive in five runs. He poked a three-run homer and added a double in his club's 15-4 lacing of the Red Sox Thursday. In the two games, he had five hits in eight trips and scored four times. • ARCHER twirled a nifty threehit shutout in that 14-0 win over the Senators Wednesday, to become the first and only hurler thus far to toss a goose-egg. The lefty had a little control trouble, walking seven and hitting one batter, but struck out nine and was real rough with runners on. Winning his second of the season without a less, Archer allowed three singles and contributed to his own cause with a single and a double in three trips. THE Indians, who played their first two games of the season this week, as did the Red Sox, have taken over first place by percenage points. The Indians have won two out of two for a 1.000 percentage. The White Sox have won three and lost once for a .750 mark. THE Yanks come-from-behind victory over the Senators Saturday was their first win of the year, leaving the Red Sox as the only club of the six without a victory as yet. SWEET Mr. Weatherman gave the Little Leaguers a break this week after Tuesday's action was washed out, and seven games were played Wednesday through Saturday. HOME runs are still being blasted. at a prolific clip, as the first week’s output of seven was matched with another seven this week. Schultzts three blasts gave him the league, lead, and Archer, Mike Curtin of the Indians, Ken Gause of the Red Sox and Mike Schnepf of the Indians hit one apiece. THE Bullpen is sorry to hear of the arm injury to Dave Jackson of the Tigers, Dave broke his right arm in a bicycle accident and is out for the rest of the season. The little slugger had blasted two home runs in the Tigers first game and was really headed for a big season. Dave had won the initial honors as “hitter of the week,” last Monday. Pat Kohne of the Tigers is also on the injured list with a sprained ankle but is expected back in action very soon.
ADAMS county’s Pony League ( also got some games in this week with a break in the weather. A Pony loop doubleheader is scheduled for this evening at Worthman s Field, with the Cubs meeting x Berne in the first game and the j Braves battling Monmouth in the nightcap. The Cardinals are also in action, traveling to Geneva. DECATUR’S three entries in the 1 league aren’t having things as * much their way this summer as J last. The Cardinals are the only 1 one showing a winning reerd, win- * ning two of three. The Cubs have won once in three outings and the J Braves are winless in two tries. 1 THE Cubs and Cardinals finished on top last season with 9-3 marks ( and die Braves were right behind f with an 8-4 record. The league is > much better balanced this season ‘ and promises to be a seven-team rpce'for regular season and tour- < nament honors. t PRACTICE in the Wildcat i League is underway with a real fine turnout of players. Five fine < high school players from Decatur £ and Decatur Catholic are assistant < coaches. Plans are being made already for a trip on Thursday, June 27 to Comiskey Park in Chicago to see the White Sox entertain the world champion New York Yankees. Wildcatters, then- parents, brothers and sisters and friends are invited to make the trip. Little League Standings W L Pct.

Buzhardt Hurls Eighth Victory For White Sox By United Press International Pitching still is “the name of the game” and the Chicago White Sox firm of Johnny Buzhardt, Juan Pizarro and Jim Brosnan is more than proving the case to American League rivals. Buzhardt, who leads the AL pitchers with an earned run average of 1.99, spun a four-hitter at the Kansas City Athletics Sunday and partners Pizarro and Brosnan combined on an eighthitter in the nightcap to give the White Sox 2-1 and 3-2 decisions and a virtual tie with the New York-Yankees for the league lead. For Buzhardt, who had an 8-12 won-lost record with the White Sox in 1962, it was his eighth win of the season against only two losses. It also marked the fourth straight complete game for the former Chicago Cub and Philadelphia Phillie who never before has won. more than eight games in any one season in the majors. Pizaxrp, a 14-game winner for the White Sox a year ago, picked up victory No. 7, but he needed help from Brosnan, the transplanted “author” from Cincinnati, who got the final five outs. Before he left, though, Pizarro had fanned eight batters to run his strikeout total to 81. The Yankees stayed nine percentage points ahead of the White Sox by defeating the Detroit Tigers twice, 4-0 on Ralph Terry’s three-hitter and 6-3 behind Bill Stafford and Hal Reniff before a crowd of 44,357 a Yankee Stadium, the largest of the season in the American League. The Cleveland Indians, Los Angeles Angels and Boston Red Sox also scored doubleheader wins. The Indians shaded the Washington Senators, 4-2 and 6-4; the Red Sox routed the Baltimore Orioles, 8-1 and 12-5, and the Angels beat the Twins, 5-3 and 5-4. In. the National League, the Cincinnati Reds swept the New York Mets, 11-5 and 10-3; Houston and San Francisco split, the Colts taking the qpener, 3-0 and the Giants the nightcap, 4-3; the Chicago Cubs downed the Los Angeles Dodgers, 8-3, then lost, 2-0; the Pittsburgh Pirates and St. Louis Cards divided, Pittsburgh winning the first in 12 innings, 4- and St. Louis the second, 11-7, and Milwaukee beat Philadelphia, 5- before dropping the nightcap, 7-4 in 11 innings.

Reds Take Two From Mels To Gain Full Game By United Press International It took an old fashioned tongue lashing and a traditional club one-two pitching punch to snap the Cincinnati Reds out of their lethargy. Manager Freddie Hutchinson provided the lecture and pitchers Jim Maloney and Jim O’Toole took it from there, backed by some explosive hitting, for a doubleheader sweep of the New York Mets Sunday, 11-5 and 10-3. After the Mets had beaten the Reds for the second day in a row on Saturday, Hutchinson locked his athletes in the clubhouse and apparently read them the riot act. Os course, ’ he hadn’t forgotten the fact that the Reds lost five games to the Mets a year ago when losing to the New Yorkers was considered about as low as a club could sink. Maloney got off poorly in the opener, giving up all five New York runs in the first three innings, but z he settled down after that and was touched for two ' harmless singles the rest, of the way in notching his 10th victory of the season in 12 decisions. O’Toole went him one better, although he gave up 11 hits. However, the Mets weren’t able to put them together until the ninth International League Northern Division W L Pct.
