10 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, July 10, 1961 TONY GONZALEZ slides through the dust at home plate to score a run for the Phil lies, in the first inning of the first game in the doubleheader at Chicago yesterday. Cubs' catcher Dick Bertell lunged but missed "tagging" the speedy Philadelphia outfielder, who scored all the way from first base when Chicago out- fielder Billy Williams dropped Wes Covington's short fly to 7-1 left field. Philly Pancho Her- rera (No. 7) watches the ace tion, while awaiting his turn to bat. «(AP Wirephoto.) Robinson Big Gun As Reds Keep Up By ED WILKS Associated Press Staff Writer Frank Robinson didn't make the starting line-up for the all- star game, but after his ups and downs against Los Angeles righthander Don Drysdale Sun- day, there's no one to say he isn't the big gun for Cincinnati Reds, shooting for their first National League flag in 21 years. Drysdale, the side - arming slinger who thus far has been a disappointment in the Dodgers' bid to overhaul the Reds, knocked down the dangerous Cincinnati left - fielder twice on two pitches and plunked him on the arm with a third. Net result for Drysdale was a heave-ho out of the game and a ble fine or suspension by league president Warren Giles. Drysdale must pay an automa- tic $50 fine for a warning by umpire Dustry Boggess Fed the first knockdown. HIT IN SEVEN RUNS Robinson shrugged off the in- side pitches and batted in seven runs on a pair of homers, a double and a single for a per- fect 4-for4. The Reds won 14-3 giving them a five - game bulge over the second place Dodgers after winning three of the four games in the showdown series at Los Angeles. Third - place Pittsburgh Pi- rates made it three straight] one-run decisions over Milwau- kee, by beating the Braves 5-4. San Francisco Giants split a pair with St. Louis, the Giants losing their sixth in a row, 6-3, in the opener, before beating the Cards 6-1. Chicago Cubs swept a doubleheader from Philadelphia 9-8 and 8-5, with the second game called after eight innings because of dark- ness at lightless Wrigley Field. Saturday, Los Angeles |snapped Cincinnati's 10 - game win streak with a 10-1 victory; St. Louis defeated San Fran- cisco 9-7; Pittsburgh downed Milwaukee 4-3 and Chicago rapped Philadelphia 6-4. ROBINSON TOPS REDS Robinson, who tops the Reds with a .328 batting average, 23 home runs and 70 RBIs, hit the first of his two - run homers against the Dodgers in the first inning off loser Roger Craig. His run-in with Drysdale came in the sixth, and he then tagged Dick Farrell for his second homer and a three - run double in the ninth. Gene Freese of the Reds also homered while righthander Joey Jay (12-4) checked the Dodgers on five hits, two of them home runs by John Rose- boro and Charlie Neal. A pair of homers by Walt Moryn drove in the Pirates' first three runs. Bill Virdon then brought the Bucs from be- hind against Lew Burdette (9-6), who had won five in a row, with a two-run single in the seventh. Al McBean (2-0) was the winner in relief. Clem Labine, a bullpen regular for the Pirates, made his first start since the 1956 world series (when he was a Dodger and beat the Yankees in 10 innings) after Earl Francis was side- lined by arm troubles. WON OPENER The Cards won the opener on a two - run homer in the eighth by Ken Boyer for their third victory in four games un- der new manager Johnny Ke- ane. But the Giants bounced back behind the four - hit pitch- ing of Jack Sanford and re- liever Sam Jones in the night- cap. Sanford (4-5) knocked in the deciding run off Ray Sa- decki (7-5) before giving way because of a heel ailment in the sixth inning. Orlando Cepeda hit a solo home run in each game for the Giants, Lindy Mec- Daniel (5-3) won the opener and Juan Marichal lost it. BOTH IN RELIEF The Cubs overcame seven er- rors with 28 hits in their sweep over the last - place Phils. Ed Bouchee hit two home runs and Al Heist one in the assault that backed Glen Hobbie (6-9) in the opener and reliever Dick Ells- worth (4-6) in the second game. Art Mahaffey (7-10) and Chris Short (2-6) were the losers. Eddie Mathews Ready To Play All-Star Game SAN FRANCISCO (AP)--The National League was cheered today by the news that Eddie Mathews, Milwaukee's hard-hit- third baseman, will be available for duty. against the American League in Tuesday's 30th all - star game, first in San Francisco. It was feared that Mathews, the senior circuit's premier southpaw slugger, might be forced to pass up the spectacle because of a knee injury sus- tained in a collision with Los Angeles' Daryl Spencer last week. But the big Californian returned to the Braves' lineup Sunday and assured National League ' manager Danny Mur- taugh he would be ready when the game gets under way at 1 pm. (4 pm. EDT) Tuesday. A capacity crowd of more than 42,000 is expected to at- tend the first of this year's two all - star games, which will be televised across the United States and Canada. The second e will be played July 31 in Mainly because of Roger Ma- ris (33 home runs) Mickey Man- tle (29), Rocky Colavito (22) and Norm Cash (24), and the virtual certainty that Whitey Ford, New York's brilliant southpaw, will pitch the first three innings, the odds-makers have established the American Port Credit Wins One In Brampton BRAMPTON (CP) -- First- place Port Credit Sailors de- feated Brampton Ramblers 14-8 before more than 600 On- tario Lacrosse Association sen- ior fans Saturday night.

Cardinal Manager Chops McDermott SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- Johnny Keane, new St. Louis Cardinals manager, suspended relief pitcher Mickey MeDerm- ott Sunday and ordered him to turn in his uniform because of a curfew violation. Keane said McDermott, 32- year - old lefthander rescued from obscurity last spring by the Cards, is through with the club.
