Giants Pitching Staff
Suddenly Becomes
League Sensation
By Jock Hand
As.eeiofsd Press Sports Writer

What happened to the New York
Giants pitching staff?
Spiders spin cobwebs in the Polo
Grounds bullpen. Starters finish
without relief. Fireman Kenny
Trinkle doesn't even make the box
scores.
This strange situation has existed
for almost a week. Three straight
shutouts by Larry Jansen, Clint Har-
tung and Dave Koslo have left the
National League Keeling. -s..a
Seven complete games in eight
pitching starts have lifted the club
past the St. Louis Cardinals into
third place. The. hurlers throw
shutouts like honest-to-goodness
pitchers and not the humpty dumpty
'throwers they are supposed to be-. 4
Koslo, particularly, has come into
his own in recent days. Two straight
no-run jobs, including yesterdays
SO effort against Cincinnati, stamp
him as most important factor in
the clubs pennant hopes. Before
that he hadn't thrown a complete
game since May 8.
Wallops Grand Slammer.
Walker Cooper eased Koslo's task
yesterday with q bases-loaded homer
in the first after the Giants already
had scored one off Ken Rafens-
berger. 1t turned out to be more
than enough, despite four straight
singles by the Reds Danny Lit
whiler.
Brooklyn dubbed the Cardinals,
9-6, permitting New York to take
over third place. Neither club gained
on front-running Boston which
edged Pittsburgh, I'll. The Braves
lead remains intact at 51a games.
It was the 18th victory in Is
games for the Brooks since Burt
Shotton returned as manager.
Bill Voiselle, who Topped with the
Giants after a brilliant freshman
season. collected win No. II for
Boston. He managed to weather
several dangerous situations and
drove home the decisive run with
one of his rare hits. Mel Queen
was tagged with his third defeat
in the second wnen he was chased
during four hit attack that netted
only one run.

field, the Ohio State sophomore who
doubles as an Army sergeant. has
cut out for himself an Olympic task
that, If successful, viii place his
name among the track and field
immortals.
The powerfully built 23-year-old
Negro middle distance runner is
fully aware of the back-breaking
schedule ahead of him.
Starting today he has to run

This is all on the assumption he

After the individual double Is I'M

the United States team is dependent
in great part on how the 6-foot,
165-pounder feels after his week
long efforts and also on whether
Track Coach Dean Cromwell think
Whitfield can handle the two extra
40Os.
Whitfield's ambition to become the
first double winner in the middle

Pieretti and Priddy Make Mats
Suffer for Letting Them Go

average against Washington pitch
ing this season.
Pieretti has been a major factor
in Chicago's 9-8 edge over the Mats
this year and Priddy has enabled
the Browns to split IL games. The
Mats aren't getting anywhere against
the weaker clubs and keeping them
on a treadmill have been Pieretti
and Priddy.
Priddy has had an enjoyable year
against his former chums. He has
fashioned 10 hits, including
doubles, in 48 attempts. He has
scored II runs and batted across 10
more. Jerry has been heaping en-
barrassment on the Mats en- route
to what may be his most successful
major league season.
The Mats will be battling the
Browns and a king-sized batting
slump which has seen them produce
only two runs in 20 innings, drop
ping two 2-1 games to the White
Sox. 1t was ironical that Mickey
Haefner and Sid Hudson, who
haven't been sensational, pitched
commercially on those occasions,
yet absorbed their 10th defeats.
Manager Joe Kuhel, with the full
realization that the Mats will have
nothing to say concerning the pen
nant, plans to give Shortstop Angel
Fleitas a thorough examination
during the st. Louis series.
Mark Christman, "a years old,
doesn't figure in the Mats future
and Johnny Sullivan has been no
sensation in his trials at shortstop.
Kuhei is turning to Fleitas, 1854
hitter with Chattanooga before be-
ing summoned to the Mats, in the
hope he'll solve the shortstop situa-
ton.
Ray Scarborough, most consistent
Nat pitcher this season, will shoot
for his ninth victory tonight. Ray
also will be bidding for his fourth
successive triumph.
The Mats paused in Lafayette,
Ind, last night long enough to take
a humiliating rs defeat admin
istered by the Lafayette Red Sox
of the Indiana Michigan Semipro
League.
Lafayette pumped Dick Welteroth
for six of its runs and six of its seven
hits in two innings and was aided
by six Washington errors-three by
Third Baseman Eddie Yost.
Slim Delion, battered for seven
hits in the first two innings, re-
stricted the Mats to one hit in the
last seven.
