Flag Hopes Afire, Tribe Off for Road

Louisville-to-Play ‘Host’ Tonight After Bowing Here 11-1 and 4-0

By EDDIE ASH, Times Sports Editor Still alive in the pennant chase but still a game and a half behind the pacesetting Minneapolis ‘Millers, the Indians were in Louisville today where they will tackle the fifth-place Colonels ina

in American Association regular

season competition. The Tribesters have nine games to go. three in Louisville, three in Toledo and three in Columbus, with the schedule closing next |Sunday. The Indians kept step with the

‘Millers yesterday by swéeping a

doubleheader from Louisville at Victory Field, 11 to 1 and 4 to 0. Doubleheader Kings ~ It was the Tribe's fifth consecutive twin bill triumph and 17th of

stand, playing 21 games, the Redskins won 13 and lost eight, getting off to a miserable start. Finally, the home boys pulled themselves together, won eight in a row and 12 out of their last 14. Beginning the final road trip in Louisville tonight, Manager Al; Lopez is expected to pitch Joe Muir, veteran southpaw, and Bobby Friend, young righthander, Manager Mike Ryba of the Colonels said he would delegate his mound chores to Bob Alexander and Harley Hisner, both righthanders. A crowd of 9528 saw the Indians at their best on the Victory Field greensward yesterday - and the fans were given many reasons to shout. The home boys smacked {the ball in the clutches and some great fielding and throwing plays !were turned in. Tribe Pounds Ball The Indians collected 14 hits in the first game, seven for extra bases; including two home runs and five doubles. Right off, in the first inning, Nanny Fernandez belted a basesfull home run over the left field wall. It was only the second grand slam blow by a Tribester this season. Young Al Grunwald hit one in Louisville early in the campaign when used as a pinch hitter. Young Dale Coogan hit a homer, over the right field wall in the fifth stanza of yesterday's first game and repeated the feat in the fifth of the nightcap. Fernandez batted in six of the Tribe's first game runs, four on his homer, one on a long fly and one on a single. It was his 10th round tripper since coming back from the Pirates. Dom Dallessandro also got into the home run act yesterday by smacking one out of the park in the fourth inning of the second game. Ted Beard garnered two {doubles and a single in the twin bill opener. Riddle, Lint Win Elmer Riddle pitched the: first game for the Indians to hang up his 11th victory against eight setbacks. He held the Colonels to eight hits, and only one after the fifth inning. Royce Lint worked on the Tribe mound in the seven-inning nightcap and hurled a three-hit shutlout, He fanned three and issued but one walk. The agile southpaw retired the side in order in four| of the seven frames. Lint mow “has 127 “victories” against six defeats. However, one of his early season wins still is “unofficial.” In a game at Toledo, | in which three Tribe pitchers were used, the scorer awarded it to Lint in a first report, then changed it in a second report and gave it to Paul LaPalme. In yesterday's “outing,” Lint] walked the first hitter, Bob Boyce, who is Dom Dallessandro’s nep-| hew. After one out, Mel Hoderlein| lined one to the left field corner and two great throws, by Culley! Rikard and Fernandez, nailed Boyce at the plate. He wa= erased on a similar play in the firsy game. In the fifth, Lint got himselt| out of a jam by starting a double

drive that was headed for a hit’ ‘and threw to F to double: a runner off second. Colonel Pitcher Hurt In the first stanza of the night-

field wall with one out. He moved

bad hop and struck Pitcher John| Robinson in the face. The Louisville hurler was knocked to the ground. He was. unable to make a play on the ball
