Y. ATKINS The routine in Richmond, for the Red Wings, ever since the Virginians came into the Inter national League, has been at tending every movie in town; eating Chinese food; and win ing games at night in Parker Field. -The "shoot-em-ups" were well attended this trip; the egg rolls and shrimp fried rice were devoured in usual great quantities. But this time there were no Virginians to serve as patsies or cousins in Parker Field. Richmond beat Dick Ricketts and the Red Wings, 3-2, tonight on the former's first balk of the season.

This climaxed an un precedented 4-0 sweep for the Vees, and veteran Richmonders were saying tonight they never had expected to live long enough to see it. Rochester still leads 8-5 for the season, and 65-36 for all time. For the road trip, the Wings finished 3-5. Having been swept here, they still are looking for their first victory of the summer of 1958. The balk, and nothing else, beat Ricketts, sending him under .500, at 6-7, for his second defeat of the set.

The BB-boys, Blaylock and Browning, were defeated in the other matches, so the Vees ran pool on some pretty good pitching. Ricketts own, unaccountable wildness set him up for defeat. He walked the bases full in the sixth, while fighting Jim Bronstad in a 2-2 tie, then per mitted Cletis Boyer to cakewalk home on the balk. He finally escaped the inning with what would have been a wild pitch, except that he covered the plate himself to retire the runner on catcher Ray Katt's retrieve and throw from the grandstand wall. Joe Christian's single, a walk, fielder's choice and Ed Stevens' sacrifice got Rochester one in the first, and Stevens doubled and scored on Roy Smalley's single in the fourth.

Richmond matched each run in the innings. Len Johnston singled, and scored on a bunt and Johnny Ja-ciuk's boucing single that had "eyes," and in the fourth Ranee Pless delivered a leadoff homer. DUGOUT DIGGIXS: Longest and bulkiest home stand, of the entire season 17 games in 14 days comes up starting tomorrow night at Red Wing Stadium. Miami, Havana, Toronto and Buffalo comprise the opposition. If the Dealers have a pennant move in them, now is the time for all good men, etc.

Havana Topples Leafs In 11-lnning Contest mask in yakking situation and there 11 be no repercussions. Meanwhile, Wings filed formal protest on game-ending play in Sunday second-game seventh, when winning run scored while second baseman Roy Smalley was knocked off balance by runner while fielding ground ball. The protest has some chance. Ex-Yankee coach and catching great Bill Dickey is getting credit for pulling Richmond third sacker Ranee Pless out of unaccountable slump. Dickey, as scout and trouble-shooter, spent last few days working with Pless in batting cage.

Returned to lineup on Sunday, Pless promptly hit grand slam, homered again tonight. Dickey's comment: "Lopat (manager Ed Lopat) told me Pless was trying to do too many things to shake the slump. Basically, I tried only to restore him to his normal swing, and to keep him from fighting himself. One big hit (the grand slam) doesn't necessarily do it, but it helps his confidence. Even a Pless, who's always been a good hitter, can lose his con fidence when he slumps and starts pressing.

I wouldn't be certain he's out of it even now." Vees hit road again tomor- Daniels, Rand Bzat Bisons For Jcfs, 3-? rnUTMBUS. Ohio. June 23 (jp Rennie Daniels hurled narklinir two-hitter to Eive the finlnmhus Jets a 3-1 Interna tional League victory over the Buffalo Bisons tonight. it was the Jets' fourth victory in the five-game series and left them only 1 games out of third place in the IL.
