WHE DALY TIMES-GAZETTE, Thursday, September 24, 1953 Philadelphia Strong Boy Leads Major Pitchers By BEN PHLEGAR Associated Press Sports Writer Robin Roberts is going to fall considerably short of some of the glowing predictions made for him early in the season, but the Phila- delphia strong boy hag still had q a year. Contrary to some of the opti- mistic experts, Roberts didn't: i Yin 3 ames. . Pite innings. 3. Stan every third day without a break. But with one more starting as- signment to come before the sea- son ends Sunday, the Phillies' righthander is sure to: 1, Win 23 and possibly 24 games, as many or more than anybody else in either league. 2. Pitch more innings than any National Leaguer since Grover Cleveland Alexander in 1920, an more than anybody except Alex- * ander in the league since 1907. 3. Start more games than any other pitcher in the league this Roberts won his 23rd game Wéd- nesday night, edging New York Giants 2-1 on six hits. It was his 40th start and his 33rd complete contest. For the 14th time this sea- son he didn't walk a man. Despite a weak month starting in early August, Roberts' control record has been phenomenal. He leads the league in strikeouts with 196 and has walked only 61 men, an average of less than one every five innings. Roberts probably will start Sun- day against the champion Brook- lyn Dodgers. So far 'he's worked 340 innings, 10 more than last year. With another two innings there'll be nobody between him and Alex- ander on the workhorse list. Alex- ander pitched 389 innings in 1916, 388 to 1917 and 363 in 1920. Another pretty fair pitcher, who turned in one of his usual excel- lent performances Wednesday night was Warren Spahn of Milwaukee Braves. He beat St. Louis Card- inals 2-1 for his 22nd victory. The combination of Roberts and Spahn moved the Phillies and Cards into an exact tie for third place. Each clulf has three games to play. In other action Wednesday the pennant-winning New York Yan. Cleveland clinched second place in d | the American League for the sec- ond straight year with an 8-3 ver- dict over Chicago. Larry Doby broke a 3-3 tie in the eighth inning with his 29th home run. Bob Lemon went the distance for his 21st vic- tory. Cincinnati nursed its hopes for a fifth-place finish with a 4-3 de- cision over Chicago Cubs. The Rod- legs, assured of at least sixth, where they've finished the last three seasons, trail the fifth-place Giants by a game and a half. Ed Lopat took a seven-inning world 'series workout against the Athletics and everybody on the Yankees was satisfied. He gave up a run, eight hits, walked no one and struck out four. Hard-Hitting Outfields Feature Of Series NEW YORK (AP) There's bound to be plenty of base hits ringing around Yankee Stadium and Ebbets Field once the Yankee and Dodger outfielders set their world series batting sights. Both Brooklyn and New York go into the series with hard-hitting outfield trios. In Jackie Robinson, Duke Snider and Carl Furillo the Dodgers boast one of the most formidable hitting outfields ever to perform in a series. Furillo currently leads the National League in patting with .344, Snider is runner-up at .337 and Robinson is sixth with .332. Furillo, a consistent hitter all year, has been sidelined with a broken finger since Sept. 6, but is expected to be ready for action next Wednesday. Gene Wood- Mickey Mantle and Hank Bauer.

The Bigers were confronted with a near-hopeless task when Kitch- ener Panthers jumped into a 4-1 lead in the best-of-nine final. But they have bounced back to take two straight victeries and force the series to an eighth game to- night at Kitchener. Their latest decision--a 3-1 win here Wednesday night--was by no means decisive. But the important factor to Waterloo fans was the | fact the Tigers never were headed, even though they were matched in hits by the Panthers. Each team notched five safeties and commit- ted three errors. Bobby Schnurr chalked up his first victory over the Panthers in three seasons with the Tigers.

Waterloo In Contention For I-C Title Again lasted the route, striking out three and walking only two. The Tigers jumped on southpaw starter Cy Bricker for all three runs before he was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the seventh. Dick Welker finished up for the Panth- ers. Rightfielder Auggie Herchenrat- ter came up with two of Waterloo's five hits and both were run-pro- ducing efforts. The Tigers started their victory march in the fourth inning when Herchenratter's double fo centre scored Bobby Fisher who previ- ously walked and went to second on a sacrifice. The Tigers added another run before the inning was over when catcher Ed Sokol scored Herchenratter with a single to left. Kitchener scored their only tally in the top of the .htfifCkuh in the top of the fifth. Chuck LEADERS IN MAJOR LEAGUES By THE CANADIAN PRESS National League AB R H Pct.
