Page 4 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Tuesday, May 6, 1952 INDIANS DEFEAT RED SOX 4-2 New York Giants Win Over Chicago Cubs By 3-2 Score By JOE REICHLER | Associated Press Sports Writer | Can Cleveland’s vaunted big four, | rated the most formidable pitching staff in baseball, continue its iron man role? | Will Bob Feller, Bob Lemon, | Early Wynn and Mike Garcia, do- ing double duty, be able to finish | strong, pitching at this workhouse | pace? Time will tell, of course, "but | based on last year’s results, the | answer is ‘‘No.” A-year ago, the big four carried the light-hitting Indians all the way | until mid-September. Starting and relieving, it finally broke down under the stretch run burden de- | spite the 20 or more victories racked up each by Feller, Wynn and Garcia. The same four are working at a more killing pace this season. In Cleveland's 19 games, Feller, Lem- om, Wynn and Garcia have started ali but one. They’ve also been used in relief four times. Their overall record is 10-6. Last year, none of the big four was summoned in relief of a faltering mate until the Indians’ 22nd game. Manager Al Lopez had to use Wynn in relief of Lemon Monday and the move paid off as the In- dians came from behind to defeat the Boston Red Sox, 4-2, in 10 in- nings. Wynn, who started and was knocked out Sunday, yielded one run in three innings and was credited with his fourth victory against one defeat. A 10th nning home run by Bob- by Avila followed by successive triples by Al Rosen and Ray Boone, produced three Tribe runs, Smapped a 1-1 deadlock and hung | the season's first defeat on Mel Parnell. The victory boosted the second-place Indians to within one game of the American League- leading Red Sox. Righthander Frank Shea and Qutfielder Archie Wilson, obtained via trade from the New York Yankees Saturday, teamed up to give the Washington Senators a 13-1 victory over the skidding St Louis Browns in the only night : activity in the major leagues. Shea surrendered one run before retiring in the eighth inning be- cause of a cramned finger to regis- ter his first victory. Wilson rapped a double and two singles and drove in five runs to lead the Senators’ attack against Starter Ned Garver and two relievers. New York’s Giants maintained their slim half-game margin over the Brooklyn Dodgers in the Na- tional League, making use of their Bench Views JACK K. BURKE Sunday, at the Key West Golf | Club, McColl Sawyer pulled the surprise feat of the year, when | he chipped hjs ball out from be- hind the trees that are to the left of No. 8 green, with a No. 7 iron that had the shaft broken just | below the grip. He broke his iron on a previous shot getting out of the trap to the right and the ball landed over the green behind the trees. When he was chipping, he looked like a small boy because his body was crouched so low to permit him to hit the ball. The other three of us who were play- ing nearly died with laughter watching him, but it was all over, He had a triple-bogey for the hole which is not bad consider- ing what he went through. | There are still some members, particularly those in the low- scoring bracket, that have not signed up for the invitational tournament in Miami Springs. May 31. Joe Lopez is asking that they do so as soon as possi- | ble so the list can be compiled and sent there for the match- ing. The Snorkel Hunters of VX-1 have added their fifth and sixth victories to the record book when they defeated HS-1, Saturday, | behind the one-hit pitching of Major Coleman, and OpDevSta, | Sunday with Ed Ellis on the | mound. | Their victories to date show. | Naval Station, 7-0; FAWTU, 14- Fleet Training Group, 13-10; HS-1, 7-5 and 1-0, and OpDevSta, | 20-2. Their pitching staff of Ellis, Coleman, Jack Steinhour, Mc- and Bill Hoelzel ged 11 and two- strike-outs per game, thirds which in any league is pretty good pitching. Don't forget the dinner-meeting of the Quarterback Club on May 19. There is plenty of good things | planned for this first get together | of all the active and associate members. Plan now to attend. Baseball Standings Robinson To Fight Maxim On June 23 NEW YORK — Does Sugar Ray Robinson rate with super champs like Bob Fitzsimmons and Henry Armstrong? Boxing fans will get the answer June 23 at Yankee Stadium when Robinson, former welterweight champ and current middleweight king, gets a crack at Joey Maxim's light heavyweight crown in a 15- round bout. If Robinson succeeds, he will become the third man in history to hold three division champion- ships. Fitz won the middle, heavy and light heavy in that order. Ham mering Henry held the feather, light and welter titles simultaneous- ly Sugar Ray had to give up his welter crown the night he knocked out Jake LaMotta to win the 160- pound title. He probably will have to vacate the middle championship for a crack at Maxim. But, if he wins the light heavy, he might give it up and return to his own middle- weight division after he gives Max- im the required return bout within 90 days. Robinson accepted the Maxim match Monday according to Jm Norris, International Boxing Club | president. This important meeting of two champions, first major bout on the New York summer schedule, may | approach the $767,626 gate for the Robinson-Randy Turpin fight last fall. Maxim will have the weight edge of course. He was 184 for a recent St. Paul bout and expects to do around 171 for Robinson. Robinson will carry “as much as he can put on,’ according to Manager Gainford’s plan. That inford in- sists Robinson’s true age is 30 al- though the record books say he’s 32, Maxim is 30, ‘BASEBALL SCORES MONDAY’S RESULTS By The Associated Pregs National League Brooklyn 5 Pittsburgh 1 (eight in- nings, rain) New York 3 Chicago 2 ONLY GAMES American League Cleveland 4 Boston 2 (10 i Washington 13 St. Louis 1 ONLY GAMES Florida International League ings) | Miami Beach 2 St. Petersburg 1 Havana 4 Miami 3 Lakeland 11 Fort Lauderdale 0 Tampa 5 West Palm Beach 0 Florida State League Cocoa 2 St. Augustine 0 DeLand 5 Orlando 1 Sanford 6 Jacksonville Beach 5 Daytona Beach 7 Leesburg 6 'Jr. Baseball Tabulations Batting and pitching averages of the Jr. Baseball League in- cluding all games to date.

That is what the spectators are saying cut at Wickers Field in the Island City baseball games. First, was that wonderful catch by “Georgia boy”, Robert Jenk- ins in the stands. And when an! umpire put a player out of the| game for belly aching on a | | strike, the player instead of go- ing to the showers, made the umpire go to the stands and be a spectator. Last but no least, the way some spectators act and talk at the games that is a little on the disgustirig side. So I think that we have seen everything. And I forgot, a play-off that -| never was ended, the Strand won 2 games and tied one, and Gulf- stream lost two and tied one, for the silver loving cup and still no j one has won the cup. They never will unless the sponsor of those cups decides on who is really the winner. | Everyone is trying to dodge the issue and it has to come to} a head sometime. So what do you think about it Mr. Fernan- dez, and the Blue Ribbon? OUTSIDE CLUBS TO PLAY HERE Starting next Saturday night, when the Brooks Stars will bring in a club from Miami. Flato plays here.
