At 33. the little Mexican in

him here and there. even in the

the Braves Tuesday.
At the moment, the only
question about that deal in

Jugg|ed Again
AS Yanks Rally
BY the Associated Press

One can believe what he
wants to about that American
League pennant race, but as
far as the Cleveland Indians
are concerned, the Yankees
still are the team to beat.
The still struggling cham
pions, down 40 after five in
ningS, knocked the Indians out
of first place for the third time
this season and the second time
in a week with an 8-5 victory
in Cleveland last night. The
loss plunked the Indians a full
game behind the Chicago
White Sox, who climbed back
on top with a 5-4 decision over
Boston.
Detroit regained fifth place
from Washington by beating
the Senators, 60. And Kansas
City edged within a half-game
of Washington with a 6-3 VIC
tory over Baltimore's third
place Orioles.
Yanks Over 500 Again
The fourth-place Yankees,
winning nine of Is games with
the Indians this season and
four of the last five, bobbed
above 500 once again while
moving within a game of third
place. They trail the White
Sox, by 6!2.
Herb Score had the Yankee
shut out on three hits until the
sixth inning, when Hector Lopez
hit two-run, two-out homer.
They chased the young left
handler while taking a 5-4 lead
in the seventh on Bobby Rich
ardson'S two-run double and a
two-out single by Elston. How

Griffs Hitting Cellar Path
Along With Their Homers
Skid to Sixth
As Tigers VIM;
Roy Gets 18th
BY BURTON HAWKINS
Star star Writer

DETROIT, July 23.-The
Senators are behaving pecul-
iarly, in a manner that indi-
Gates they could set an Ameri-
can League home-run record
and finish in the cellar stimuli
taneously.
What amounted to almost
complete agreement among
sports writer's and those coldly
calculating fellows in Las Vegas
that the Senators would finish
eighth this season seemed to
border on the ridiculous after
they started popping home runs
all over the place.
1t isn't SO far-fetched now.
for Washington'S tired players
are retreating toward the cellar
and it's conceivable they could
be there when it's all over.
Admittedly, they could have
more fun than the past two
years in tumbling there, but
it's a dismal prospect at best.
Close to Seventh Place
The Senators skidded to
sixth place yesterday, only a
half game ahead of Kansas
City, as the Tigers walloped
Pedro Ramos, GO. Roy Sievers
socked his 14th homer and the
Senators 117th-they're now
only five away from establish
ing a club record-but Manager
Cookie Lavagetto is we'll aware
that much of their power 10
being Short-circuited. :
The Senators have slammed
A of their homers in losing
games. They're a much more,
interesting club because of
them, of course, but Lavagetto
would like more adept fielding
and more polished pitching to-
blend with the muscle.
Washington has lost three in
a row and five out of six. Today
against the Tigers Jim Bum,
ming. the club is reduced ta
pitching desperation in thd
choice of Hal Woodeshick, but
at this juncture Lavagetto can'S
afford the luxury of being
choosy.
Cookie has seen Russ KemA
merer walloped consistently. a
dreary sight that has forced
him to adopt other measures.
Woodeshick hasn't won a game
and his earned-run average
reads like dinner time, but
there have been moments when
he has reSembled a pitcher.
Clevenger a Problem
Truman Clevenger represents
one of Lavagetto'S problems.
The likeable Highlander knows
what's wrong-hiS slider isn't
wrinkling-but he hasn't been
able to correct it.
