Milwaukee Lifts Streak To Eleven Braves score three times in ninth inning to defeat Phillies, a i i i o'o. iuiu geis oin vexuitu Philadelphia UP) -The Milwaukee Braves powered their way past the Philadelphia Phillies for their eleventh straight triumph 8-5, last night at Connie Mack- stadium on the booming bats, of Eddie Mathews and Bobby Thomson. The Phillies tied it up 5-5 in the bottom of the eighth with Willie Jones' three run homer. But Milwaukee came back with a ninth inning rally that opened with a double by Johnny Logan followed by a pair of bunts back back by pinchhitters Andy Pafko and Del Crandall, the latter a squeeze play.

Harvey Haddix had replaced starter Stu Miller and he walked the dangerous Mathews who had homered earlier only to have Thomson, who also homered, single in the second and-third runs of the inning. Thomson hit homer No. 10 with the bases empty in the second to tie the game and in the fourth Mathews hit the first pitch of the inning over the right field wall for his 12th of the season. The Phillies tied it up with a walk and a pair of singles in the fifth but Milwaukee countered with another run in the top of the sixth again off the combined hitting of Mathews and Thomson when the former doubled and then, scored on a Thomson single. Bob Buhl, the winning pitcher, was also relieved in the ninth by Warren Spahn.

His record is now eight and three. Miller, "the loser, nas won mree ana lost iour.

Seixas, the 1953 champion stung by lowly No. 8 seeding, toyed with Malcolm Fox of Baltimore 6-1, 6-2, 6-3, seldom having to go to the net where he is deadliest. Other Americans who kept pace with him were a mixture of in ternational veterans and fuzz-faced youngsters, all bidding for recognition on Uncte Sam's wide-open Davis Cup team.

Seven Americans were beaten, three of them by fellow countrymen. The umpire called off the match between sixth-seeded Ham Richardson of Westfield, N. and Jack Arkinstall of Australia because of fading light after the pair had battled on for nearly three hours. i At that point Richardson was leading Arkinstall 6-4, 9-7, 11-13, and was behind 2-4 in the fourth set.
