CHICAGO. July 12.-Rarely
will better fielding be seen than
the superb defensive play by both
clubs in the All-Star game here
yesterday. Ted Williams
started it in the first inning when
he streaked far to his left for
Ralph Kiner's liner. Ted
jammed his left arm against the
wall after he made the stab.
Enos Slaughter ran far back in
dead center field in the second
inning for a spectacular catch of
Walt Dropo's 415-foot smash,
taking the ball as it was about
to clear the bullpen fence for
a homer. Kiner got back at
Williams in the third by backing
against the left-field wall for a
fine catch.
The Yankees Gerry Coleman
had one fielding chance and
gummed it up. He bobbled
Slaughter's grounder in the 18th,
enabling the National League to
load the bases with two out, but
Dom Di Maggie went back to the
wall to haul in Andy Pafko's clout.
Pafko took a triple away from
Pinch-hitter Tommy Heinrich in
the 18th, slamming into the CEN
terfield scoreboard for a terrific
grab. American League fans
and sentimentaliSts in the crowd
were pulling for Joe Di Maggie to
break up the game in the 14th
after Ferris Fain singled. but Joe's
sharp grounder to Willie Jones at
third soon was on a double-play
journey.
Kiner has had three hits in
three All-Star games-two homers
and a double. E. Peewee Reese
kept his All-Star batting average
at a 900 level. In II times at
bat he hasn't had hit. And

Returning to the club, he was
used not only in a kicking role,
