PITTSBURGH. July 20 (P.-
Though he looked 8 wee bit
ltired-as any pitcher should
after hurting 18 innings-Vernon
Law of the Pirates said early to-
day he could have completed his
hurting chore against the Braves.

lit was the longest game in the
majors this season.
Although he said he felt in
ltip-top shape. the 25-year-old
Highlander who has become the
Imainstay of the Pirates staff
looked like q fellow who wouldn't
have trouble sleeping. AS he
listened to the radio report of
1.-THE final half inning, he sud-
denly let 60 with a shout:
"Yipee, we win!"
/ He seemed more impressed
with the team victory than the
fact that his 18-inning stint was
|one Of the best performances in
1.-THE majors in recent years. He
lstruck out IL. gave up nine hits

Manager Fred Haney sent him
Ito the showers because he said
he feared Law would injure his

has won three of his last four
decisions. Included in the tri-
umphs were two over the league
leading Dodgers.
From the fifth through the
18th Law was in complete COM
mand. He gave UP only six
hits In this stretch. one a lead
of double to Joe Adcock in the
18th. Then Law settled down to
get the next three men.
The last previous l9-innine
might game was on September
Is. 1850. when the Phillies beat
the Redlegs, 81.
Tops AntonelIi's Effort
Laws stint eclipsed the 16-in-
ming. 2-1 victory hurled by the
Giants Johnny Antonelli against
Cincinnati May /.
On July /, 1888, Carl Hubbell
of the Giants went Is innings tc

All Haney could say after the
contest was:

has company on the PGA's in

Worsham struggled through
the National Open with a bad
right shoulder anc the Monday
following the National Open he
finished second in a 36-hole
tournament in Pittsburgh.
The next day Lew couldn't
lift his arm and he discovered
he had bursitis. He had some
shots in his shoulder here the
other day and hopes to start,
but doesn't know how far he
can go.
Cary Middleton is no stranger
to the Meadowbro6k course. He
tied for the Motor City Open
title here in 1889 and lost q
playoff to Lloyd Mangrum. and
won the Motor City Open over
this course last year.
Middlecoff had to come from
behind to win last year because
he played the last 13 holes of
his first round without a putter.
He missed a putt on the fifth
green, kicked the club and the
head few off.
He putted with almost every
club in the bag and struggled
to a 73. and then turned on the
heat. He won with a 16-under-
par 278.
