WEDNESDAY, JULY 26, 19 WILSON WINS FOR RAINIERS BY 370 1 SCORE OVER OAKS (By the Associated Press) Big Jim Wilson, turned back by Hollywood last week in his effort to win 16 games in a row, has taken up where he left off. Wilson limited the league-leading Oakland Acarns to four to 1,wvietory. Oakland didn’t lose ground, however, as Portlands Red form, Lynn, hurling in superb blanked runner-up Hollywood, 2 to 0. Lynn allowed only three hits to best Jack Salveson, who with 12 wins and only one setback, has been pacing the Pacific Coast League pitchers. San Diego and Los Angeles en- gaged in a slugfest with the Padres coming out on top, 9 to 5, and San Francisco nosed out Sacramento, 5 to 4. Lynn's win at Portland was his eleventh of the year. Portland scored both runs in the first inning. Luiz Marquez opened with a single, went to second on Eddie Basinski’s infield hit and scored when Mickey Rocco doubled off the right field wall. Joe Brovia, was walked, but Jim Gladd flied out and Basinski cotnted after the catch. Wilson’s 16th win squarea the 10- game series Seattle and Oakland are playing this week. The big right- hander, who has been fooling the batters with his “palm ball,” whiffed 12 last night and ran his strikeout total for the season to 157. Oakland’s lone run came as Dick Wakefield poled a 370-foot homer in the sev- enth. Manny Perez won his own ball game at San Francisco. He singled in the ninth inning to score his catcher, Ray Orteig, with the win- ning run. Jim Tabor hit a home run for Sacramento, scoring Jim Hodgin ahead of him in the fourth, but the Seals’ Joe Grace knocked one out of the park in the sixth with two aboard. San Diego started fast against Los Angeles, Suitcase Simpson homering with Whitey Wietelmann on base in the first inning. The Padres shelled Angel starter Herm Besse in the third with a four-run attack and picked up two more against Beoker McDaniels: STANDINGS OF TiiZ CLUBS Pacific Coast League Pet ' Oakland .

NOW (By the A\\mmed Press) Cleveland’s rampaging Indians, looking more menacing each day loom as the real “dark horse” in | | the jumbled American League pen- | nant race. No club in the league—and that includes the pace-setting Detroit Tigers and runner-up New York Yankees—has looked better than | Lou Boudreau’s men, who have run | up 12 triumphs in their last lsl games. Whereas three weeiks ago, the In- | dians trailed the Tigers by seven| full games, they are only two and| a half games out today. Thanks to a 7-b triumph over Philadelphia last night while Loth the Tigers and Yankees wi the Indians find themse best position they've heen all year. True, they still are in third place, one length back of the Yankees and three in front of the Boston Red Sox, but they are in good shape to make a whale of a battle out of it the rest of the way. They own three top flight pitchers in Bob Lemon, Bob Feller and Early Wynn. And in rookies Al Rosen and Luke Easter, they possess two of the top sluggers in the game. Feller was ine wimnner yesterday although heé needed help from Le- mon in'the ninth. It was Bob’s 10th triumph of the year. He got ‘a big lift from Easter, who smashed his 18th and 19th homers off loser Alex Kellner. Nip and Tuck Game The Red Sox won a 7-6 nip-and- tuck affair from Detroit, scoring three runs in the eighth off relief pitcher Hal White to overcome a 6-4 deficit. Three runs in each of the fifth and seventh innings had enabled the Tigers to overcome an early 4-0 Boston lead. Each club used four pitchers, with Chuck Stobbs the winner and White the loser. Stubby Overmire pitched the St. Louis Browns to a 4-3 victory over the Yankees. The little lefthander, who holds two of the three Brownie wins over New York, had a three- hit shutout until the ninth. Four hits, including a two-run homer by Johnny Mize, gave the Yankees three runs. Fine relief pitching by Joe Haynes and strong stickwork by Sam Meel and Gil Cpan helped Washington triumph over the Chi- cago White Sox, 7-4. Phillies Back on Top Philadelphia’s Phillies moved back to the top of the National League by handing the Chicago Cubs twc shutouts defeats, 7-0 and 1-0. Bubba Church hurled a three- hitter in the opener and Robin Rob- erts followed with a six-hitter. It was the latter’s 12th triumph. Johnny Klippstein and Bob Rush were the victims. The Cubs now have suffered through three straight shutout losses. They were beaten, 3-0, in the second game of Sunday's double- | header with the New York Giants. | * The Phils’ double win put them a half game in front of the St. Louis | Cardinals, who whipped the Brook- Iyn Dodgers, 9-5. The Boston Braves | moved into the third spot, two and a half games off the pace, by B.B.STARS | Stars of major baseball league Lgames Tuesday are as follows: Batting: Del Rice, Cardinals — hit three-run homer in eighth in- ning to lead St. Louis to 9-5 victory over Brooklyn. | Pitching: Bubba Church and Robin Roberts, Phillies — hurled 7-0 and 1-0 shutouts, respectively, over Chicago as Phils climbed back into first place.
