LOPAT JINK BROKENNOW BY INDIANS By Associated Press It took nearly two years, a black cat, 15,000 rabbits’ feet, a message to Garcia and some solid socking for Cleveland to break through the Ed Lopat jinx. But that’s what the Indians ac- complished last night when they sent the stylish southpaw to the showers in two innings with a six- run assault and went on to whip the New York Yankees, 8-2. Cleveland’s victory, its third straight over the Yankees, and its ninth dn a row, overshadowed even the Chicago White Sox’ sweep of a twi-night doubleheader from the Boston Red Sox, 6-5 and 2-0. Not since June 17, 1949 had the Indians been able to conquer Lo- pat. Since then, the lefthander beat them 11 straight times, twice this season. He entered the fray with an unblemished record of eight wins without a defeat. Garcia Does Job Mexican Mike Garcia, beseeched by numerous messages to “beat Lo- pat,” did it handily with a well- scattered 10-hit performance. He held the Yankees runless after a wobbly first inning to register his fifth victory against three defeats. “I guess the rabbits’ feet and the black cat did it,” Lopat sighed in | the clubhouse. Lopat was referring to the good luck charms handed out to the first Hartford, Conn., outpointed Jesus Compos, 127, Cuba, 10. Toronto — Arthur King, 137, Eng- land, outpointed Armand Savoie, 133, Montreal, 10. New Orleans — Chuck Davey, 125, Lansing, Mich., knocked out Tommy Ciarlo, 146, Waterbury, Conn,, 4 15,000 of the 20,217 fans who entered Cleveland Stadium. Black Cat on Mound As if that wasn't enough, a zany fan tried to break Lopat's hoodoo all by himself by running out to the mound with a black cat as the Yan- hurler was tossing warmup pitches in the last of the first inn- ing. The year’s biggest turnout at Co- miskey Park — 42718 — hollered itself hoarse as the White Sox whipped two former teammates Ray Scarborough and Will Wight— to open up a three and a half game lead in the American League race. Detroit’s Tigers came from be- hind with two runs in the last half of the ninth to nip the Washington Senators, 6-5. Rookie Lou Limmer hit a grand slam home run to lead the Phila- delphia Athletics to a 7-6 triumph over the St. Louis Browns. Homers By Musial Stan Musial smashed two homers and a single, drove in three runs and boosted his average to .380 as the St. Louis Cardinals checked New York’s second place challenge with a 7-2 win. The Cincinnati Reds roared from behind a 7-0 deficit with three tallies in the eighth and seven in the ninth to down the Boston Braves, 10-7. Gus Bell hit for the cycle—a single double, triple and homer, to lead Pittsburgh to a 12-4 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies. Rain washed out the night game between the Dodgers and Chicago Cubs in Brooklyn.
