CINCINNATI, May 16. - Eweli
Blackwell of the Reds and Vern
.Bickford of the Braves were Won
.dering today how they could come
so close and yet both miss.
Both were right at the no-hit
threshold here last highland all
in the same game.
Neither one of them made it,
but they came up with what ap-
parently was the greatest twin
pitching performance in the Ma
Itional League since 1917.
And to make it all the more
dramatic, it was a home run bg
Catcher Johnny Pramesa that wor
the game for Cincinnati, 10.
Blackwell allowed only one hit
as he turned in his third one-hlt
pitching job since last September
q. Bickford allowed only two
hits. All three safe blows were
for extra bases-Pramesa's homef
and Connie Ryan's double for the
Reds and Bob Elliott's double for
the Braves.
Except for Pramesa, however

base.

looked better the other night in
Boston"
On that occasion Bickford beat
the Reds and allowed only two
hits.
AS for Blackwell, Sewell said,
hes been very good his last two
times out"
Both Blackwell and Bickford
already have no-hitters to their
credit. Blackwell had his in 1947
and then went 81s innings
against Boston-on his next time
out before giving up a safe wallop.
He finally wound up allowing two
hits in that game.
A sore arm and sickness made
him ineffective in 1948, 1949 and
the early part of last year. Then
he got hot and through the closing
weeks of the season he was stand
ing the hitters on their ears again.
He beat Chicago with one
hitter on September 2. Ten days
later he came up with another

1917, to find anything to top the
Blackwell -Bickford job.
On that day in Chicago, Fred
Toney of Cincinnati and Jim
(Hippo) Vaughn of the Chicago
Cubs hooked up in game that
went nine innings without hit
by either side. The Reds finally
got two safe blows in the 10th to
win, l to 0, with Toney finishing
out his no-hitter.
Boston's first and only hit last
night came in the fifth inning.
Cincinnati didn't get it's first
hit until the sixth. That was
Ryan's double. The Pramesa
home run came in the seventh.
After it was all over, Manager
Luke Sewell of the Reds called it
"just good old fashioned pitch
ing"
Il didn't know it was that
good" he added when told that it
apparently was the greatest one
game job since that 1917 contest.
And even though Bickford al
lowed only two hits, Sewell said
he thought the Braves Highlander

i'm 18 tries with pinch-hitters.
But the collapse of the Mats
pitching is of more concern to
Harris. In their last three games
the Mats pitchers have yielded 80
runs on a production of 33 hits
and 33 bases on balls. Four of
his hurlers were battered for IA
hits last night as Detroit walloped
the Mats. 12-4, with Hal New
houser coasting to third win.
Sima. who held the Tigers to
three hits in seven innings but left
with 20 deficit last week at De-
troit, is desirous of ending that
nonsense against the righthanded,
bespectacled Trout, who has won
one game and lost two. Sima has
the same record.
First Righthander.
Tumbled into fourth place, the
Mats will be glimpsing the first
/ Irighthand starter tossed at them
in seven games.
Sam Mele projected the Mats
into a 20 lead in the first inning
last night when he slammed his
first homer of the season into the
left-field bleachers after Eddie
Yost doubled, but the Tigers
quickly tied the score against

Harris Also Wants
Pinch-Hitter After
; Straight Defeats
By Burton Hawkins

The Mats expect to regain lame
legged Mickey Vernon, first base
man, and Sid Hudson, pitcher, idle
for six weeks with balky back,
later this week but what Manager
Bucky Harris is hoping will come
his way by midnight is a relief
pitcher who can bolster his sud-
denly erratic staff.
Bucky doesn't really expect to
win an addition to his staff as
other major league clubs trim to
the 25-player limit. I'D say our.
chances of picking up anybody on
waivers is SLIM" Harris declared.
He will send Lefthander AL Sima
against Detroit's Dizzy Trout to-
might in an effort to halt Wash
Iington's three-game losing streak.
Harris has been functioning with
a nlne-man pitching staff with
Hudson incapacitated, but Sid feels
he'll be able to break in as a re-
lief pitcher over the week end, if
necessary. He hasn't thrown O
ball in competition since April |.
Vernon Hopes to Play Soon.
Vernon, out for 10 days with
torn tendons in his left leg, says
he should be able to play later in
the week. Mickey has been work.

BOSTON, May 16.-Who's on
third?
Sometimes it's a pitcher when
Paul Richards, freshman major
league manager. pulls the strings
"Ill play percentage as far as
I can if it will win a ball game, u
Chicago White Sox pilot said
quietly today in explaining
bizarre bit of strategy he worked
yesterday.
Here's what happened as Chi
cago beat the Red Sox, 81, in
II innings, somewhat spelling the
local American League Golden
Jubilee:
The White Sox were ahead 7-6
going into the last of the ninth
with Ted Williams as Boston s
leadoff batter.
Richards called in Left-hander
Billy Pierce to pitch to the left
handed hitting Williams. Right
handler Harry Dorish moved over
to third base Chats right, third
base) as Orestes Minoso went to
the bench.
Williams Pops Out.
The Chicagoans went into their
exaggerated rightfield shift against
Williams and the free-swinging
Boston outflelder popped out.
Out went Pierce and back went
Dorish to the pitching mound and
Floyd Baker came off the bench
to play third.
True, the Red Sox scored a run
that inning to tie the score, TT,
but Dorish went on to win, thanks
to a two-run homer by Nelson
Fox, first four-bagger in the ma
jors for the young Chicago in
fielder.
1t was the first time such a
shifting of manpower was seen in
major league competition around
here.
Among those who witnessed
Richards unorthodox strategy
were 20 old-timers, invited guests
of the Red Sox, who played in
the American Leagues first sea-
son so years ago.

ager, remembered having seen
such strategy before.
I've seen it before" Parent
said, but the usual procedure
was to put the pitcher in right
field"
That's the way I saw it.
Mitchell agreed. However, ir
Williams case, it was a safe move
to put the pitcher on third. He
was sure to try to hit to right
field"
Neither could recall a specific
incident.
Ruth Once Involved.
For the record. Babe Ruth once
left the mound for right field for
one batter, then returned. He was
pitching for the Red Sox.
Richards used the same gag
at Buffalo in the International
League when Bob Hooper Cright-
handler now with Philadelphia
was pitching.
II used a lefthander against
"a lefthanded batter, got rid OF
him and moved Hooper back in
to pitch" he said.
Heck. you did it tllreee OF
four times. Paul." Coach Doc
'Cramer said.
In fact. Steve O'Neill, Richards
rival manager yesterday, did it
once himself, back in his days
as leader of the Teledo club.
O'Neill used Phil Weintraub
