FRIDAY, JUNE 29, 1951 JUDNICH BACK IN LINEUP AS RAINIERS WIN By JIM HUBBART Associated Press Sportswriter The rampaging Seattle Rainiers, with Walt Judnich back in the fold expose their three game Pac.fic Coast League lead to the W the Oaklgnd Acorns tonight in & weekend series opener at Sick’s Stadium. And if Judnich and the Seattlc whammy live up to expectations Hornsby's Hornets are going to be mighty tough to swat. Winning Run Judnich, the league’s leading hit- ter and wanderer, Jreturned last night following a three-day dispute with the management. He got back into the lineup in time to drive in the winning run in the 13th inning as the Rainiers edged Los Angeles, 9-8. Gene Baker's bases empty homer had put the Angels ahead, 8-7, in the top of the 13th, but in the bot- tom half, Jim Rivera tripled home a Seattle tally to tie it up again. Judnich singled Rivera across tc win it. Oakland, meanwhile, slipped back into fourth place, receiving a 13-8 drubbing from the Portland Beav- ers. Wild Game That affair at Portland was wild- er than a night in ‘the Congo — 1¢ hits for the Beavers and 17 for Oak- land. And the Oaks sent in a new pitcher in each of the first five innings. At Hollywood, Sam Jones of San Diego ran his season’s strikeout total to 146 as he blasted his fast one past 11 Hollywood batsmen and beat the Stars, 6-I, with a four- hitter. Sacramento inched back into third place by dusting off San Francisco, 6-5, in 10 innings, when Lou Bu dette, pitching in relief for the Seals, issued a walk with the bases full to force in the winning run.

Boston, 93; ~EMPIRE WANT ADS PAY~— HILLER IN (OMEBACK, ONE HITTER By Associated Press Frank Hiller, a Yankee who got away, is the new glamor boy pitch- er of the majors after his brilliant ane-hitter for the Chicago Cubs. Hiller faced only 27 St. Louis Cardinals last night, walking lead- Jff man Tommy Glaviano in the tirst and allowing a single to Enos| Slaughter in the fifth. Both were rased on double plays. ‘The Cubs backed lli Frankie boy vith a generous 12-hit attack on ry Staley and Al Brazle foy an 0 win. The Hiller story is Horatio Alger n reverse. Signed by the wealthy New York Yanks for a comfortable bonus when he came out of Lafay- atte in wartime, he never quite made the grade. Becomes Disgusted Bouncing around in Newark and <ansas City with a couple of years n the Hiller became disgusted. He was so | dissatisfied he asked George Weiss, | him after an 11-8 year at Kansas City in 1949, Weiss peddled Hiller to the Cubs for $25,000 on a condi- tional sale. They forgot the condi- tione when Frankie came through 13 a 12-5 pitcher for Chicago, last season. In Form Last Night ‘The 30-year-old righthander never was better than last night. His prev- cus big league high was a two- ritter against the Phils last Septem- oer. Hiller’s sparkler, however, didn't 2ave as much effect on the National League race as Monte Irvin's two home runs for the New York’s 5-4 edge over the leading Brooklyn Dodgers. Irvin hit Nos. 11 and 12 off Ralph Eranca to clip the Dodgers’ lead to five games. Branca took a 4-2 edge into the eighth. Dawn Game The National League staged an- other of its “dawn” games, due to; rain interruptions, at Cincinnati where the Pittsburgh Pirates fin- ally edged the Reds, 7-5, in a game ending at 12:39 a.m. The Pirates got away on top and had a 7-1 lead after six innings. Eddie Sawyer’s efforts to shake the Phillies out of their day-dreams by banishing Mike Goliat to Balti- more apparently worked in a 3-2 win over Boston in 10 innings. - Casey Stengel needed two pitchers —Tom Morgan and Joe Ostrowski— to shut out Washington, 3-0, as the Yankees reduced idle Chicago’s American League lead to one half game, The White Sox’ scheduled day game with Detroit was washed out after half an inning. St. Louis, Cleveland, Boston and Philadelphia were not scheduled. Sporis Briefs Inglewood, Calif. — Jockey F. A. ‘Freddie” Smith, 38, was killed when his mount, Folletin, fell during run- ning of eighth race at Hollywood Park. London — Jaroslav Drobny of Egypt, betting favorite, and ninth- seeded Gardnar Mulloy of Miami, were eliminated from Wimbledon championships. Tony Mottram of England beat Drobny, 5-7, 6-4, 2-6, 7-5, 8-6, and Fausto Gardini of Italy defeated Mulloy, 7-5, 3-6, 6-4, 6-4. Oakmont, Pa. — Claude Harmon, Mamaroneck, N. Y. won the low medal in the PGA Golf tournament with a par on the third hole of an unprecedented sudden death play- off with Lloyd Mangrum of Niles, IIL, and Pete Cooper of White Plains, N. Y. The three tied in the 36-hole qualifying round with 142s, Inglewood, Calif. — Mocopo, $7.50, won $10,000 Downey handicap at Hollywood Park.
