Rainiers Drop Game to
Acorns-Seattle Baseman
Is Hit by Pitched Ball
(By the Associated Press)
Hollywood, which has lost more
than Its share of close ones in the
Pacific Coast League this year, is
beginning to believe the law of av
erages hasn’t been repealed, alter I
all.
The Stars won their second close I
one in a row, 1-0, (and what could
be closer?) from Portland last night.
Jack Salveson made it tw'o shutouts
in succession, following Pinky
Woods’ 2-0 win Tuesday.
Hollywood, however, failed to gain
ground as front-running Oakland
whacked Seattle, 10-5, to maintain
their comfortable 9'_- game margin
over the Stars. Elsewhere. San Diego
edged Los Angeles, 3-2, in 10 in
nings. and Sacramento made it twr
straight over San Francisco, 7-1.
Nobody knew it at the time, ol
course, but the Stars-Beavers game
could have been called after tin
first Hollywood batier. shorts to)
Buddy Hicks, rapped lied Lynn':
first pitch oyer the right field fence
Lynn was superb after that, givini
up only four more hits and fanning
nve.
But Salveson, chalking up his 14th I
win against three defeats, was even
sharper. He spaced five singles,
three by Joe Brovia, and walked
none. It was revenge for Salveson
whose earlier 10-game win streak
was snapped recently by Lynn’s
three-hitter.
Harry Gumbert, the old major
leaguer, turned in one of his best
PCL performances for the Sacs with
a five-hitter against San Francisco.
Dino Restelli’s first inning homer
was the only Seal run.
Max West’s fly scored Orestes
Minoso in the 10th to give San
Diego the nod over Los Angeles. Hal
Saltzman went the distance for the
win. Pete Mallory drew the loss
after relieving Bob Muncrief in the
ninth.
Oakland spotted Seattle a lead on
homers by Bill Salkeld, Frank Col
man and Jack Warren, then roared
back with a 12-hit barrage that in
cluded circuit drives by Ray Noble
and Bob Hofman. Reliever Lou
Tost was the winner.
Seattle second baseman Todd
Davis was hit by a pitch from Aj
Gettel, but preliminary X-rays
showed no concussion. He remained
overnight in a Berkeley hospital.

JERSEY CITY, N.J.. Aug. 10—
—Jake LaMotta Is the next target
for Sugar Ray Robinson, now that
his fifth welter title defense is
safety out of the way. But it won't
be easy to arrange.
Robinson never was safer than in
the Roosevelt Stadium ring last
night against cycling Charlie Fusari.
The only time he risked his crown
was on the scales at noon.
The lean Harlem slasher had to
go back three times before he made
147 pounds after team baths and
rubdowns. He doesn’t want to do
that again. From now on, he wants

A 160-pound championship bout
with LaMotta will be discussed to
day at the Madison Square Garden
offices of the International Boxing
Club in New York.
“I wasn’t exactly tired,” said Rob
inson in his Roosevelt Stadium
dressing room after the fight, "but
1 was kind of weak.”
There was little action in Robin
:on’s latest outing because Fusari
ran away for most of the 15 rounds.
You had to bend over backwards
to give the Irvington, N.J., blond a
ingle round.

DOBY SLAMS
TWO HOMERS,
3 DOUBLES
(By the Associated Press)
American League pitchers are reel
ing the after-effects of Larry Doby’s
near-tragic skulling of some two
weeks ago.
Since Brooklyn’s Joe Hatten
knocked Doby unconscious with a
pitched ball in a July 24 exhibition j
game at Ebbets Field, no pitcher has
been safe from Larry’s bludgeoning
bat.
In the 11 games the Cleveland
Negro outfielder has played since
the accident, he has pounded out
nine home runs, driven in 20 runs
and batted .462. His nine homers
matched his entire output for his
first 86 games.
Doby tried his utmost to give
Cleveland a sweep of its double
header with St. Louis last night.
He slammed two home runs and
three doubles to drive in five runs#
The best the Tribe could do, how
ever, was to split the two games.
Cleveland won the opener, 4-3,
with Dolly’s two homers accounting
for all the runs. The Browns blew
a four-run lead but bounced back
to win the second game, 10-8, on
Ken Wood’s eighth inning homer
with one on. Doby belted three
doubles, drove in a run and scored j
twice. j
The Tigers downed the Chicago
White Sox, 5-3, to maintain their
three-game advantage over the
Yankees, who shaded the Boston
Red Sox, 2-1, behind Vic Raschi’s
three-hit pitching.
Phils Keep Winning
The Philadelphia Phillies con
tinued their dominance in the Na
tional League, defeating the Brook
lyn Dodgers for the second straight
day, 5-4. The victory protected their
five-game bulge over the Boston
Braves who nipped the New York
Giants, 3-2.
The St. Louis Cardinals, who
moved into third place, were idled
by rain. They were slated to face
the Pirates under the lights in
Pittsburgh. The scheduled game be
tween Cincinnati and Chicago also
was postponed by rain.
In the only other American
League game, the Philadelphia Ath
letics nosed out Washington’s Sen
tors, 7-6, on an 11th inning single
, by Joe Tipton.
Raschi, veteran Yankee right
hander, pitched perfect ball for six
and two-thirds innings before Billy
Goodman singled. Then an eighth
I inning homer by A1 Zarilla ruined
| Raschi’s shutout bid.
| A couple of bunts by Billy Mar
j tin and Phil Rizbuto, sandwiched
I around an error and a fly. produced
> the winning run for the Yanks in
j the fifth.
Vic Wertz’ 24th home run with
I George Kell on base in the eighth
proved to be the decisive blow in
Detroit’s victory over Chicago. Fred
■ Hutchinson went all the way for
his 13th triumph.
The Phils broke a 4-4 tie in the
eighth when Brooklyn’s Erv Palica
i walked Willie Jones. Gran Hamner
followed with a double and Mike
Goliat scored Jones with a fly to
deep left.
Veteran 3ob Chipman ended the
Giants’ eight-game winning streak
with a four-hitter.
