RAINIERS " MAKE SIX BIGPLAYS ‘ (By the Associated Press) ttle’s Rainiers may not cut | ice in the Pacific Coast League season, but they've carved lves a nice niche in the PCL - Yim thig, th 1T 3 hting their way up from the deep freeze of the cellar, Paul Rich- ards’ boys clicked off six double plays yesterday—one in the ninth, which was more than any team had ever pulled in a nine-inning game | on )he coast. With such support, Al | Gerheauser had little trouble in .de- feating San Francisco, 9-3. ' %e Seals got nine hits, tive ot them two-baggers. But they were | doubled and re-doubled two innings | out of every three. Albright-Schus- ! ter-Colman, Frey-Schuster-Colman, ! Frey-Christman-Colman, Albright- || Christman-Colman (2), and Frey- '| Colman-Albright, did the stunts. Seattle sewed the game up with | a five-run blast off Con Dempsey | in the eighth. , The San Diego-Hollywood battle | +for first place evened up as thel former won, 2-1, on George Zuve- | rink’s nifty three-hitter. San Diego | thus. went three games in front, | ! again. Zuverink, rangy Iposted his fifth win against as ‘many defeats. | | Frankie Baumbholtz, the circuit’s | lonl§ 400 batsman, extended his hit- | ‘ting streak to 20 games with two | ‘doubles and a single as Los An-| Igeles smashed Portland, 6-2. Les Layfon and Stan Spence slugged | their seventh homers to saddle Bob Drilling with the loss. Bob Mun- ' crief checked the Beavers with four hits and fanned eight for his sixth fwin. Back into the basement—Iook, it’s | ‘an escalator!—went Sacramento. | The Solons bowed to a five-run Oak- | land rally in the 11th, 8-3, with | Harry Gumbert the victim, Clyde | ,8houn the victor.

Remember the day three men wound up on third base? The fly man’s head? The sparrow that flew out of Casey Stengel's hat? The 1950 Dodgers last night added the novelty of a three-man race from third base to home plate that wound up an “interference” double play by the Chicago Cubs. Sound complicated? Well, it is. Jackie Robinson was on third base and Gil Hodges on second in the eighth inning. Eddie Miksis hit a ball to third base. That set it up. The third baseman threw to the plate and catcher Jackey Owen chased Robinson back to third. When Robinson arrived he found Hodges aiso standing on the bag. Owen touched both men and the umpire ruled Hodges out. Then Miksis headed for second base and Owen Lhre\n; to Wayne Ter- williger. Although he had been ruled out, Hodges started for the plate in a three-man race with Robinson and Owen. Down the stretch they came vir- shoulder to shoulder. But!} the finish was not official. An ob- jection was lodged. The relay from Terwilliger was taken by first base- man Phil Cavaretta, protecting home plate. He tagged Robinson out be- cause Hodges interfered. The official scoring was a double | play—third baseman Bob Ramaz- zotti to Owen to Terwilliger to Cav- | arretta. Owen got the putout at third and Cavaretta the one at home. Oh, yes, the score. Brooklyn won, with rookie pitcher Dan Bankhead going the route for the first time. It was the Negro righthander’s | fourth straight victory, breaking a | five-game win streak by the Cubs’| Bob Rush. Duke Snider, George |Shuba and Roy Campanella | smashed homers off Rush. Andy Pafko ruined Bankhead's shutout with a homer. | Those Philadelphia Phils stuck | right on the Dodgers’ heels by | blasting six runs in the eighth in- ning for a 6-3 edge over Pittsburgh. | Dick Sisler’s three-run homer off | Murry Dickson started the big up- | rising. | Rookie ‘Cloyd Boyer pitched fine | relief ball for the St. Louis Cardi- nals who beat New York 2-0. ! Warren Spahn turned in his best effort of the season, a three-hitter for Boston against Cincinnati, 4-1. The Braves got to Ewell Blackwell { for six hits and all four runs be- fore he gave way to Frank Smith. Rain washed out the “big game’ in the American, the first of the New York Yankee-Detroit Tigers series, but the Boston Red Sox clung |to an early lead to down the St. Louis Browns, 7-5, for Mel Parnell’s fifth” victory. Two triples by Al Zarilla and doubles by Walt Dropo Billy Goodman and Ted Williams led the 10-hit attack. Gene Bearden, the 1948 World Series hero but a flop ever since, bounced back with a fine reliet job for Cleveland against Washington. Replacing Early Wynn in the sec- ond, Bearden allowed only four hits in 7 1/3 innings for a 5-4 decision over Joe Haynes. The Chicago White Sox came from behind to topple Philadelphia, 10-7, with five runs in the eighth. Store your furs with Chas. Gold- stein and Company. Phone 102. SCHWINN BIKES AT MADSEN’S THAT MA!

BROOKLYN, May 25—#—Gil Hodges’ fifth inning single scored Duke Snider' with the run that gave the Brooklyn Dodgers a 5-4 victory over the Chicago Cubs to- day. Homers by Roy Campanella and George Shuba helped Preacher Roe gain his fourth victory of the season. CLEVELAND, ' May 25—#—Bob Lemon, Cleveland’s only 20 game winner last year, pitched three-hit ball today as the Indians blanked the Washington Senators 3-0. The win put Clevelarld in a tie with ‘Washington for fourth place. It was Lemon’s fifth win against two set- backs. Dick Weik was charged with his’ third loss. GOLF TOURNEY ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, May 25 —IP—Big Bill Campbell of Hunting- ton, W. Va. defeated defending champion Sam McCready of Ire- land on the 19th hole today to lead a field of six Americans into the round of 16 in the British Amateur Golf Championship. The long-driving state legislator, who yesterday eliminated former champion Willie Turnesa, sank a 12-foot putt for a birdie three on the first extra hole to subdue the laughing Irishman after a tense duel. Frank Stranahan of Toledo, Dick Champman of Pinehurst, N.C.,, Jim McHale of Philadelphia, Bill Good- loe of Valdosta, Ga., and Ed Gravely of Rocky Mount, N.C., joined Camp- bell in the sixth round, which also was to be played today. o One American was certain to be eliminated in the afternoon round, as Stranahan and Goodloe were paired against one another.
