BASEBALL
BEAT
By BURTON HAWKINS

A king sized batting average
doesn't necessarily invite pitchers
to issue walks, although Babe
Ruth was walked ITO times in
a season and Williams got 1852
passes in 1947 and again in 1949.
Nearly as pesky have been
such w-average hitters as Yost,
Eddie Stanky and Eddie Joost.
Stanky's style consisted of
harrassing pitchers by moving
around in the box. Yost
rarely moves muscle with the
count 3 and 0 on him, but his
method has proved as effective
as Stanky's campaign of annoy
ance.
Eddie'S managers - OsSie
Bluege, Joe Kuhel and Bucky
Harris-have expressed the hope
that he'd concentrate more on
hitting than drawing walks. .
Yost has muscle and all of his
bosses have complained he
doesn't attempt to use it as
much as he should. But the
criticism has been rare and mild,
generally made with the obser-
vation that Yost is a good ball
player who could be better by
swinging rather than watching
in some situations.
YoSt wears well. :. . He doesn't
whimper when his average is de-
flated and he doesn't puff up
when he's going well. L. He
doesn't worry, takes each game
as it comes along and plays
hard. He gives it all he has
all the time. which is all that
can be demanded.

average and H. c. Turner and
Robert De Maio tied in pitching
and putting.
Kenwood held a 36-hole "clasS'
tournament, no handicaps, with
each player competing in his
handicap class. Max Bost won
class A over Buddy Sharkey with
a two-round count of 148 to 149.
The Ills class went to Dave
Maloney and E. Craig Wilton, ST..
with 1865. Jack Schoo had 172
and L. c. McLaren 174 in the 16-
19 class, and DR.. Anthony De-
Concilis won the 20-36 class with
1875 to D. r. Edges 1873.
Mel Yudelevit played his final
shot 180 yards down the goth
fairway to win Indian Spring S
flag tournament, while Myron
Gerber and DR.. Herman Brodie
were second and third, near the
cup on the 10th.
Congressional featured IRON
man golfers in r. w. DaniSchef-
sky and Capt. c. F. Lynch,
U. S. NJ, who won honors in the
flag tournament in the morning
and the mixed Scotch foursome
in the afternoon.
Danischefsky had 76-13-63,
to finish on the 21St hole In the
flag tournament while Capt.
Lynch won low gross with rs.
MI. and Mrs. DaniSchefSky had
1918 and 80 minus II, respec-
lively, to win the mixed Scotch
foursome play with a 141. Low
gross was a tie between the
Lynchs and Mrs. D. H. Hender-
son and Bob Chandler, both with
164 totals.
Belle Haven's mixed Scotch
foursome went to Mrs. Dee Dear
ing and Bob Mead with 1923
so. Second was a tie between
Mrs. Charles Carmody and L. A.
Francisco. 83-20-63. and Mrs.
Jack Henry and Clint Harmon,
85-22-63. Low gross went to
Mrs. James Swink and G. P.
Dunn with a 70.
Argyle held a miniature hole
in-one tournament and Ray
Crilley holed out a shot on the
42-yard hole to win over Earl
McAleer. jr.
Phil Buscher and Doug Berry
entered the two-man team finals
with a 1-up victory over Bob
MARITIME and Danny Fults.

threw wild past first, getting the
edge on a close play with another
head-firSt plunge.
Stengel squawked that Yost's
bunt had f1icked the visor Of
Eddie's cap and when he per-
sisted in bleating about it, Um-
pire John Stevens elected him.
Yost moved to third or BuSby's
grounder and scored on Vernon's
single to left. That. it developed,
was the game. Ford, beaten for
the first time in his career by
Washington, and Sain held the
Senators harmless thereafter and
Schmitz stopped the Yankees
cold.
Johnny didn't allow anybody
to reach third base and Ford
was the only Yankee to get to
second. That materialized in
the third inning with two down
when Whitley singled and Gil
McDougald received the only
walk given by Schmitz. Runnels
grabbed Jerry Coleman's liner
to end the threat.
NOTES: Chuck Stobbs, seeking
a third win, will oppose the
Yankees Bob Grim here today.
The Senators return to
Griffith Stadium tomorrow night
for the opener Of a three-game

Schmitz didn't permit a hit in

ton.

vera at the plate and bowled
him over. Silvera didn't pro-
test, but Bob KuZava said some

appeared ready to tangle with
the pitcher before Vernon
stepped in as peacemaker.
