Against Chicago
BY BURTON HAWKINS


Jim Heise stacks a mediocre
minor league record against tn,
Ipennant-c ontending White So,
at Griffith Stadium this after.
noon. and the Senator'S new
conner from Glass B ranks can b,
q man Of distinction by cocktail
time If he springs a surprise.
There's nothing in Heisei
minor league record, 8-5, a
Hobbs. N. Mex. last season anC
2-2 with Midland. Tex, this year
to indicate he's prepared for tn,
big step, but he comes highly
recommended by a mb-hanginl
scout. Joe Pastore.
After a couple of fellows who
saw Heise after last season
limited that he might be the mar
to take up some slack in the
Senators sagging staff, Pastort
was dispatched to appraise him
An okay was forthcoming and
so the University of West Vir-
ginia graduate viii make his ma
jor league debut against Chicago,
tied for the lead with New York
Sievers on Form
II he fails. well, it won't ex-
actly be q unique situation fol
q Washington pitcher. They've
confronted the White Sox eight
times this year and have lost
seven, bowling. by a 4-3 count
last night but stirring some 6,l2C
customers in the process.
Heise will be opposed by Jack
Harshman. lefthander who car
ries q 1912 lifetime mark against
the Senators into the game
Heise is expected to have a small
but enthusiastic group of friends
from his campus days and from
his home town of Scottsdale,
Pa, to cheer him on.
The. fast-balling, 6-foot right
handler also would appreciate
some support from Roy Sievers,
who has batted .154 for his last
six games and who has driven
across only one run in seven
games. Roy hasn't belted q
home run In IL games.
The Senators had i'll fortune
operating against them last
night. with a pair of lucky hits
OF Bud Byerly in the ninth
inning booming them. Les Moss
opened the ninth with a pop fly
single to left and Jim Lands,
running for him. advanced on
Bubba Phillips sacrifice. Then
Dick Donovan duplicated Moss
blooper, scoring the feet Lands.
Threaten In Ninth
Donovan. who posted his third
win against the Senators in
notching his eighth of the sea-
son. wasn't around at the finish.
Faye Throneberry opened the
bottom Of the ninth with a sim
gle and Donovan was lifted after
Rocky Bridges sacrificed.
Paul LaPalme walked pinch
hitter Art Schult in a driving
rain and heavy winds, but Milt
Boiling grounded to Third Base
man Phillips. He bobbled the
ball. but recovered and fired low
70 Nellie Fox, whose fine play
forced Schult.
LaPalme walked Runnels to
load the bases and Manager AL
Lopez quickly called Dixie Howell
from the bullpen toface Sievers.
Roy lofted a ny to left but was
reprieved when the wind carried
the ball into the stands. Granted
another chance. Sievers popped
to Shortstop Luis Aparicio.
Russ Kemmerer, who holds
the Senators lone win over the
White Sox. had a two-hitter for
four innings but yielded three
runs on one hit In the NTH. With
one out Bridges booted Dono-
vans grounder and Aparicio
sacrificed.
DOby's Hit Counts
kemmerer walked Fox and
Minoso to populate the bases
and Larry Dolby scored every
oooy with q double to left
center.
The Senator's picked up a run
N the fourth inning on singles
by Runnels and Jim Lemen. plus
Clint Courtney's grounder. They
produced their other two runs
n the NTH when Bridges and
Herb Plews singled, Boiling laid
Town a sacrifice bunt, Runnels
contributed a sacrifice fly and
Jim Rivera dropped Lemons
liner to right.
NOTES: Sievers supplied a
pair Of sparkling catches !.
He roamed far to his left in the
1rst inning to nab Doby's smash
and in the second inning he
dashed to his right to stab Dono-
vans fly near the bullpen screen.
The clubs will clash in a 1
''clock double-header tomorrow,
With Pete Ramos and Chuck
Stobbs due to face Bob Keegan
