16 THE WINDSOR STAR, TUESDAY, JULY 23, 1963 Yankees Keep Outslug Angels? 8-4 1 Softball Tresh. Returns, Hits Homeran Show Only Nine Losses In 41 Games at Stadium "downed" Out Piersall Given Release by Mets By Windsor Star Wire Services NEW YORK Jimmy Piersall, one of the major leagues biggest drawing cards because of his colorful and zany antics, may have clowned himself out of baseball. The New York Mets announced Monday that they have asked waivers on the 33-year-old outfielder for the purpose of giving him his unconditional release. If Piersall isn't claimed within 72 hours, he is free to make a deal for himself as a 12-year major league veteran. By JOE REICHLER Associated Press Sports Writer As Los Angeles leadoff batter Albie Pearson stepped into the batter's box to face New York righthander Ralph Terry Monday night, the Yankee Stadium message board flashed "Tresh Back Tonight.

Mantle, Maris Back Soon." tne Angeis looKea up irom augout ana snortea: "Yean, like a sixth finger." In addition to his clowning, which didn't go over too good with the Mets management. Piersall batted only .193, with 10 runs batted in for the last-place Mets since arriving May 23. Piersall came to the Mets from Washington in the deal which permitted Gil Hodges to take over as Senators' manager. He is believed to have cut short his Met career during a clowning episode before the game with the San Francisco Giants last Wednesday at the Polo Grounds. He apparently injured himself while running the bases during the Giants' infield drill, sliding into the bases to the pleasure of the crowd.

Also, he called a bunch of youngsters onto the field during pre-game workouts to give autographs. MUSIAL, YANKS' JOE PEPITONE TALK HITTING Many Have Come and Gone Since Musial Made Debut was a rookie at Philadelphia, Freddie Hutchinson was toiling for Buffalo, Johnny Pesky was a shortstop at Louisville, Billy Hitchcock was serving at Kansas City, Ralph Houk was a catcher at Binghampton and a 19-year-old kid outfielder was playing his first season of professional ball at Albany of the Eastern League. Name of Ralph Kiner. Why, when Stan broke in you couldn't find a bar anywhere which had television. They'd have thought you were looking for a frothy, pink drink.

And who had heard of penicillin, the Salk vaccine, atomic energy or Frank Sinatra? He had to muscle his way into an outfield that included -Terry Moore and Enos Slaughter. Leo Durocher was still filling at shortstop for the Dodgers from time to time, Mel Ott was still busting them out of the Polo Grounds, Paul and Lloyd Waner were very much in evidence and Casey Stengel was managing the Boston Braves. Stan broke in a couple of years after John F. Kennedy was graduated from Harvard, when hamburgers were a nickel, Lucky Strike green had yet to go to war and Gary Giants Plan To Move Up On UDodgers SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) Los Angeles Dodgers can be caught and the San Francisco Giants will do it. That's the flat statement today from infielder Jim Daven port, who can't see how other clubs in the league can be counted out at this early date in the National League chase.

I think we can come back, said Davenport while relaxing playing a round of golf. "Now that we are back home we are going to start winning a few. "If we can get close to the Dodgers, we can catch them We have seven games left with them. I 'm sure we can win the majority of these. But we've got to have help from somebody else.

Somebody else has to beat them, too." The Giants open a nine-game home stand tonight, with the New York Mets furnishing the opposition in the first game. And to get the team off on the right foot, manager Alvrn Dark has nominated Juan Marichal, his ace right-hander, to take the mound. Home from a disastrous road trip during which they lost nine and won only four games, the Giants are eight and one-half games behind the league- leaders. Davenport played a spot of second base on the road trip so that more punch could be inserted into the lineup, with Harvey Kuenn at third, and Willie McCovey, Willie Mays and Felip Alou in the outfield. "I liked playing second base," he said.

"Of course, it's different. But with a few i more games I could learn to play there." Davenport says the blame should be divided impartially for the tail-spin on hitting and pitching or lack of them. "When we got good pitching, we just couldn't get any runs," he says. "Then when we got a few runs, the pitchers couldn't hold the opposition." Jimmy, known as the Golden Glove" in third base circles, is having his worst season in the majors at the plate. He is hitting only .241.

But he has a lot of company. Kuenn is the only .300 hitter on the club. Such usually solid .300 hitters as Willie Mays, Felipe Alou and Orlando Cepeda, also are having off seasons. "But we broke loose pretty good in Cincinnati on Sunday," says Davenport. "Maybe we can make the big move now that will put us right back there in contention."

By BOB GREEN NEW YORK (AP) Contrary to some rumors, Stan Musial is not older than the Mississippi River, the other old man that keeps on rolling along in St. Louis. It just seems that way. How long has it been since he broke into the majors? Well, it sounds pretty long when you say it was 22 years ago.

But it sounds even longer when you consider that when he broke in: Frankie Albert was the hottest thing in college football, Bob Cousy was an 11-year-old kid in New York and Rocket Richard had yet to put a skate on National Hockey League When Stan, 42, broke in with Cardinals, Danny Murtaugh Victory For Canadian Cricket Team LONDON, Eng. (CP) Fast, dry wickets helped the Canadian Colts cricket team to a victory and a draw during weekend matches. The Canadian eleven defeated Lancing College, Sussex, Sunday by 62 runs after scoring 146. William Mitchell of Bishop's College School, Len-noxville, contributed 51 runs. Lancing was all out for 82.

Saturday the Canadians drew with King's School, Caterbury. King's made 178 with Toronto bowler George Tuck tacking five wickets for 66. The Colts, going all out for runs, were 145 for nine when time was called, The Canadians have won three games, lost six and drawn four in their 21-match English tour. One game was abandoned.

On the road they've won 27 and lost 25.

Yankees have 41 games left at home to only 30 on the road, the oppositions hopes of overtaking them is all but hopeless. -With Mantle and Maris back any day Yankees could equal or surpass tneir own nome rec ord of 65-16 in 1961. Since June 5, the day Mantle suffered a broken left foot, Yankees have won 32 and lost 16 for a .667 percentage. Since Maris joined Mickey on the sidelines July 6, Yankees have won 10 and lost 4 for .714. One of the reasons the Yankees have been able to more than doable their first-place margin during the absence of their one-two punch has been the hitting of their replace- ments.

Hector Lopez, reserve left fielder, has hit .314 over the last two weeks, with four home runs and10 runs batted in. John Blanchard, reserve right fielder, has a .302 batting average with three of his four home runs during that span. Blanchard got his fourth homer Monday as Yankees collected 10 hits against five Los Angeles pitchers, including rookie starter Fred Newman. 4ther Yankee .300 hitters over the-last two weeks are Yogi Berra .606 (11 for 18), Elston Howard .366 and Joe Pepitone .333.

JkX-JuJi Piersall came up with a leg injury and has not played since. Asked if he was counting on Piersall for some help the rest of, the season, manager Casey Stengel recently said: "Well, how can He didn't show ns anything before he got hurt." Piersall accepted his release with only a slight trace of bit terness and vowed he would catch on with another big league club without losing a payday. "They certainly didn't hurt me by giving me my release," the colorful 33-year-old veteran said Monday night. "I don't expect any difficulty catching on with another big league club. "I'm making some contacts now but under the rules no club can sign me before the three-day waiver rule expires." Piersall said he had co grievance against Mets manager Stengel but was hurt by stories in New York papers that indicated his release was due to his clowning activities on the field before and during games.

"All I did was try to help the club the best way I could and entertain the fans," Piersall said. "They never told me 'don't do or 'don't do that. In fact, they, told me how appreciative they were when I umpired their Old Timers game; the game between the sons of the players. "I telephoned John Murphy (executive assistant to club president George Weiss) and asked him point blank if my clowning had anything to do with my release," Jimmy added. "He told me absolutely not and assured me they would give me 100 per cent recommendation to any club.

'Your salary (approximately $37,500) was too high and you just didn't do the job, Murphy told me," he said. Piersall, who has a lifetime batting average of .274, soared to .322 in 1961 with Cleveland. However, he never approached that figure, with the Mets. Last season, with Washington Senators, his average was only .244. "I'm sorry I didn't help the club," Piersall said.

"But I certainly don't feel I'm through. I'm convinced I can still be helpful to many clubs. I would not play if I thought I couldn't do the job any more. I'll be the first to know when I'm finished. No one has more pride in wanting to do the job than I do." chers work harder today, they constantly try to improve their stuff and they are more control-conscious." Trucks' belief is supported by the standout performances in the National League this season.

Koufax, Marichal and Don Nottebart have tossed no-hitters. There have been a pair of one-hitters, 18 to-hitters and 27 three-hitters, all by pitchers who went the route. There are a dozen pitchers with 10 victories or more in the senior circuit. "Three no-hitters before the' halfway mark of the season are remarkable," said Trucks who turned in two such performances in 1952 when he was with the Detroit Tigers. The prime ingredients for a no-hitter are pitching skill and solid defence, of course, but Virgil adds "don't forget the luck." U.S.

Names Ryder Cup Golf Team DALLAS, Tex. (AP) The 10-man Ryder Cup team with Arnold Palmer as captain was announced Monday by Lou Strong, president of the U.S. Professional Golfers Association. The only player to move up on the team through his play in the PGA tournament that closed here Sunday was Dave Ragan, who finished second to Jack Nicklaus. He moved to sixth place from ninth.

Nicklaus was not eligible for the team because he is not yet a PGA member, having to serve out a five-year apprenticeship. The team will be made up of Palmer, Bill Casper, Tony Lema, Gene Littler, Ragan, Julius Boros, Dow Finsterwald, Billy Maxwell, Johnny Pott and Bob Goalby. The Ryder Cup matches will be held in Atlanta, Oct. 11-13. The British team will be named Sept.

"I don't think the enlarged strike zone helped the pitchers too much," said the Pittsburgh Pirate coach who doubles as batting practice pitcher.

"Several years ago Sandy Koufax, Dick Farrell, Ron Perranoski and Juan Marichal were promising. Now they have reached their vintage and are pitching su-berbly. Then there are the veterans like Warren Spahn, Bob Friend and Lew Burdette who have been pitching well right along. "Perhaps Spahn does not have his fast ball of old but he has other things.
