10th Homer
Hit by Roy;
Lemon Has Is
BY BURTON HAWKINS

Roy Sievers shattered the SEN
ators' home run record for the
third straight year yesterday
when he plunked No. 26 over the
leftfield fence in a hectic five
run third inning as Washington
romped to an easy "a victory
over Kansas City at Griffith Sta
dunn.
Jim Lemon, who had been
lhitless in is previous trips.
lrammed his 23d homer into the
same sector with Sievers aboard
in the fourth inning to intensity
the JOY of 1882 customers and
some 1000 screaming youngsters.
All this. plus some rather
atrocious fielding and base run
ming by the Athletics, enabled
Camilo Pascual to travel the dis
lance and notch his sixth win.
He permitted II hits, including
two doubles and a single by
Harry Simpson.
YOSt Walks Four Times
Ed Yost, the Senators walk
ing man, strolled four times.
Two of his passes were issued
in the third inning by Art Dit
mar. who suffered his 18th loss
as Yost boosted his bases-on-
balls total to 1856, five short of
the club mark he set in 1850.
In the process PaScual struck
out five, lifting his total for the
season to 1856. This represents
the most batters famed by a
Washington pitcher in 20 years,
or since Bobo Newsom struck out
1855 in 1886.
/ Sievers. who slammed "a
homers two years ago, then in
creased his production to Is last
season. delivered his 26th this
year after Yost walked in the
third inning. This seemingly
was a signal for the AS infield
to fall apart for they injected
three errors into the inning.
Senators Take Quick Lead
The Senators, who accumulated
nine hits off Ditmar, Troy Her.
riage and Jack McMahan,
spurted into a 10 lead in the
first inning when Yost walked,
went to second base as Whitley
Herzog grounded out and scored
on Herb Plews' double to center.
Simpson doubled to start the
second. moved to third when
Hal Smith grounded out and
scored on Joe DeMaestri's sacri-
flee fly, but after Sievers' homer
showed the Senators ahead in
the third. Kansas City collapsed.

Lemon was safe when Third
Baseman Hector Lopez bobbled

Lemon around.

by a pitched ball for the 18th
time this season and a single
by Ted Kluszewski and Wally
Posts sacrifice fly brought in
two runs.
Two more came across in the
third with three hits and a
Dodger error. Frank Robinson's
double and a single by Kluszew-
ski accounted for one of them,
Post singled Kluszewski to Sec
ond. The big first sacker took
third on a passed ball and came
on home when Reese, taking Roy
Campanella's throw, threw wild
to third.
The Dodgers first run in the
sixth came on Pinch-hitter Dale
Mitchell's double and two in
field outs.

loss against. Brooklyn back on
September IL, 1854 - the only
previous time he ever had won
or lost over the full route. He
went IL innings recently but
didn't figure in the final decision.
The Dodgers, using Carl Frs
kline, Don Drysdale and Ed Roe
buck on the mound, had the
satisfaction, however, of stopping
Cincinnati's home run streak.
The Reds had hit one or more
homers in 81 consecutive prev
ious games.
Cincinnati'S victory moved the
Reds to within two games of the
second place Dodgers. Brooklyn
had won the first two games of
the series here.
Duke Snider had a II for "a
record in Cincinnati this season
going into today's game but he
failed to get a hit in four trips
to the plate.
A tumble and bad throw by
Johnny Temple and bad pick
off throw by Jeffcoat let Peewee
Reese get to third with two out
at the start. The threat ended,
however, as Carl Furillo ground
ed out.
The Redlegs lost no time in

Miller had won only one other
game all year and had not
pitched a complete game since
1854.
The loss to the 30-year-old
Highlander didn't alter the

ers, who open a vital two-game
series here tomorrow with the
Braves, dropped a So decision

singled to centerfield to break
Miller'S spell.
Johnny Logan got the other
hit off Miller, a single to left.

ting Joe Adcock to fly out with
two on.
Miller's record now is Us.
Lew Burdette, the starter and
loser. gave up all three runs on
only four hits in the eight in
nings he worked. Burdette lost
his eighth game against 16 VIC

Logan was the only Brave to
reach second. advancing in the
ninth on Mathews walk.
Errors Help Phillies
A pair of Braves errors helped
the Phillies to two runs in the
first. Richie Ashburn doubled,
continued to third on Hank
Aaron's tumble and scored on

Blaylock. who had walked. Lo-
pats raced to second on Danny
O'Connell's wild throw and

crowd of 54,449 saw the series
finale.
The White Sox jumped on
Whitley Ford for all their runs
in the sixth, seventh and eighth
innings after Mickey Mantle had
put the Yankees ahead in the
fourth with a two-run homer,
his 44th of the year. Ford al
lowed only two singles for the
first five innings.
But the big crowd, on hand
for the annual Old Timers Game
between former Yankee and
White Sox stars, watched Mickey

With two out, Fred Hatfield
walked and Donovan scratched
a hit off Gil McDougald's glove.
Hatfield scored when Luis Apa-
ricio singled to right center
sharply. and when Nantes

dugout. Donovan was waved
home with the run that gave
the White Sox a 3-2 lead.
Chicago scored it's first run in
the sixth when Nellie Fox hit to
right, advanced to third on Larry
Doby's single, and came home
on Minnie Minoso's sacrifice fly.
In the eighth, Dolby led of

Ford was making his first
appearance in 10 days

nine starts this year and the
sixth. time he had been beaten

third setback in the last two
