Phillies Take Possession Of First Place With Win Over Brooklyn Monday kk * MOVIE STAR tae tet a kext wk & xk S TO APPEAR AT LEGION LOOP OPENER WEDNESDAY x ke *& x kk Yanks Tied With [Key West Kennel Club Result Charts—Monday, May 4th Indians For The Top In American By BEN PHLEGAR AP’ Sportswriter ‘The folks down in Vinegar Bend, Ala., better start thumbing their St. Louis guidebooks. This looks like a good year to go watch Wil- mer pitch. Wilmer, as he is known to his grandma, is better known to base- ball fans as Vinegar Bend Mizell, the 22 - year - old plowboy who Pitches for the St. Louis Cardinals. A left-hander with all the eccen- tricities usually associated with southpaws, plus a whole bundle of his own, Mizell is the greatest character, in the true sense of the word, to find his way into the Cardinal organization since Dizzy- an. Last night at Pittsburgh Vinegar Bend mowed down the recently dangerous Pittsburgh Pirates on two measly hits. He struck out nine and didn’ low a safety until rookie Carlos Bernier broke through with a single in the sixth. Frank. Thomas got the only other Pittsburgh hit, also a single, with two out in the ninth. St. Louis won the game, 5-0. When Mizell was pitching for Houston of the Texas ‘League in 1951 the entire population of Vine- gar Bend—total 35—went over to see him pitch against Shreveport. Since Wilmer has won two games and hed one rain ened tie, ‘would seem an: ap- propriate time for them to move in on Busch Stadium for another look at the local boy. — While Mizell was ending the Pir- ates’ five-game winning streak, two other streaks in the National League (iso, were broken. The Mil- waukee Braves stopped Brogylyn at six straight with a 9-4 decision at Ebbets Field and the Cincinnati Reds snapped their eight-game los- ing streak at the expense of the iNew York giants.. This happened, 9-5, in the second game of a double header the Gisnts had won the first game, 12-4.
