Mel, Hit Batter Series Topics »
'Coolest Kid' Says Yogi By ED SAINSBURY UPI Sports Writer ST. LOUIS (UPl)—The New York Yankees had a new Whitey Ford today in rookie righthander Mel Stottlemyre. Stottlemyre worked his way out of his own mixups Thursday to defeat the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-3, in the second World Series game he ever has seen. — In the process, he justified the opinion earned earlier from Manager Yogi Berra when he compiled a 9-3 record for the American League champions after he was called up from Richmond, Va., Aug. 11. “I’d say he’s the coolest kid I’ve seen since Whitey came up in 1953,” Berra said. “He’s very cool. Nothing bothers him, and he fields his position very well. “He has a very good sinker, and very good control. I saw him in the spring, and he had a chance to make this club. Then he started very bad with Richmond and finally won about 10 in a row before we called him up.” High Praise Comparing him to Ford was high praise since Whitey still is the bellwether of the Yankee pitching roster and holds the record for most World Series wins with 10. Berra, despite his esteem for both hurlers, wouldn’t assign them definite games to pitch in __ the remainder of the series. “I might start Ford Sunday,” . he said, “but I won’t go beyond naming Saturday’s pitcher now, Jim Bouton. And I might start Stottlemyre Monday, or I might save him until we come back here.” Quickly, then,- he said, “I’m not saying we’re coming back here.” Stottlemyre was an expert against the Cardinals Thursday and even though he was one pitch away from being relieved, he heeded warnings from both Berra and catcher Elston Howard to “keep the ball down” and survived, allowing only seven hits. “I’d say the biggest pitch of the game was the slider I got 3 (Ken) Boyer on with runners 2on base in the eighth,” he said.

I was just trying to make him hit the ball.” Ends Threat Boyer did, forcing Bill White at second to end a threat that began when Carl Warwick singled and Bob Skinner doubled to open the inning. ’ “I thought about taking him out then,” Berra said. “And if ’they’d got one more hit, I would have. But I told him to keep the ball down and he did.” A second hero of the Yankee win, substitute Phil Linz, who took over at shortstop when Tony Kubek was injured, credited use of Mickey Mantle’s heavier bat for his three hits, including a home run. “It’s mostly superstition, I guess,” he said, “but it still gives me confidence if I try a new bat and get some hits out of it.” The victory, his first as a World Series manager, lifted Berra’s spirits high. “It’s always good to split on the road,” he said, “and it’ very good to split on the road in the World Series.”

'Heard It Hit Bat:' Keane By STEVE SNIDER UPI Sports Writer NEW YORK (UPI)—An angry band of St. Louis Cardinals, all even after two games in the World Series and bitter about the “Joe Pepitone incident,” vowed today to turn the tide against the New York Yankees on their own home grounds starting Saturday. The Cards were hoppin’ mad from Manager Johnny Keane on down about a ruling by plate umpire Bill McKinley of the American League, who waved Pepitone to first base as a “hit batsman” on a key play in the sixth inning at St. Louis Thursday. The Yankees went on to square the series with an 8-3 triumph. "Bob Gibson and Tim McCarver both heard the ball click against Pepitone’s bat,” charged. Pepitone insisted, “It brushed my right hip.” Jumped To Lead The disputed call put Pepitone on first and moved Mickey Mantle to second. Mickey scared on a single by Tom Tresh and the Yankees shot into a lead they never surrendered. The incident obviously aroused the Redbirds but the Yankees became a 21-10 favorite to win the series and 8-5 to win Saturday in the first of three games scheduled at Yankee Stadium. Curt Simmons, the veteran lefthander who’ll pitch that Saturday game for the Cardinals, echoed the sentiments of all his teammates with a vow to beat ’em at home. “We’re not down — we’re one and one,” Simmons said stoutly. “And we’ve got the kind of a club that can play just as well at the Stadium as the Yankees can. We’ll do all right.” Simmons Vs. Bouton Simmons, 18-9 for the season, will oppose right hander Jim Bouton who wound up at 18-13 as the Yankees won their 29th American League pennant. Both teams flew to New York Thursday night and scheduled workouts at Yankee Stadium
today. The Yanks were due to limber up at 11:30 a.m. EDT and the Cardinals move in at 1 p.m., most of them to get their first look at an arena that could present as many problems for outfielders as tiny Busch Stadium in St. Louis where the first two games were played. Regardless of how they got there, the Yankees are back in business after losing five consecutive .World Series games since defeating the San Francisco Giants in the 1962 finale. They dropped four straight to the Los Angeles Dodgers last year and the 1964 series opener to the Cardinals on Wednesday, 9-5. Monmouth Rallies For 6-1 Win Over Lincoln Monmouth exploded with a sixrun rally in the fourth inning and romped to a 6-1 victory over Lincoln in a sth and 6th grade baseball game at Monmouth Thursday afternoon. Lincoln had broken a scoreless deadlock with a run in the top of the fourth, but Monmouth wrapped up the victory with the sixrun outburst in its half of the same inning. Hirschy handled hurling duties for the winners. while Archer was the Lincoln pitcher.

This does not mean the end of Long’s playing days, as he will continue in the dual capacity of assistant coach and player for the coming season. Long will begin his new duties shortly. Long, who has made his home in Fort Wayne the past eight years with his wife and five children, has been captain of the Komets since the retirement of Art Stone several years ago; this will mean that a new captain will be named by Ullyot before the start of the training camp October 20.
