Fail 10 Hide
Costly Boner
BY BURTON HAWKINS
Star stan Writer

BOSTON. Sept. 1.-The SEN
ators can zap about the umpir-
ing, perhaps finding some COM
fort in thus letting of steam,
but they have only themselves
to blame for last nights 4-3
loss to the Red Sox. They could
have walked OF the field with
a victory by the same score.
Lennie Green's failure to
charge toward the plate with
his usual speed in the seventh
inning cost the Senators a GER
tain run and prolonged the
game until the 10th. With two
out in that inning, Pete Run
nels cracked his sixth homer
off Chuck Stobbs to send a. 77
customers home happy.
With Green on third and
Billy Console on first with one
out in the seventh inning, and
the Senators trailing by a run,
Bob Allison lofted a fly to
Jackie Jensen in deep right.
Console took of for second
base in an attempt to advance
the potential winning run to
scoring position, but Jen-
sens fine throw nailed him.
Decision Reversed
Green, much speedier than
Console. wasn't within a yard
of the plate when the third
out was made at second base,
but Umpire Bob Stewart
nevertheless indicated Lennie
was safe. Stewart then
thought better Of it and re-
versed the decision, bringing
swarms of screaming Senators
to his side.
While Stewart may be &C
cused of booting the play
originally. Green was guilty to
costing the Senators the game
by failing to sense the situa-
ton. If he learns anything by
the experience, perhaps it will
prove ultimately profitable. At
the moment he isn't regarded
as a smart performer in these
precincts.
The Senators tied the score
against Bill Monbouquette in
the eighth after more ranting
at Stewart. Harmon Killebrew
singled and so did Jim Lemon,
Killebrew stopping at second.
On a 80 pitch to Clint Court
ney, the runners took of.
Courtney took the pitch, which
Stewart called a third strike,
and Killebrew was thrown out
at third.
Courtney Elected
Courtney slammed his helmet
to the ground and snorted and
beloved unkind things at Stew
art, all of which led to his
Punishment. Roy Sievers then
slammed a long single of the
wall in left-center to score
Lemon and tie the score at 3-3.
The Senators scored of Mon
bouquette in the first inning
when Console singled, stole Sec
ond and came across on Lem
on's single. Boston shelled Bill
Fischer in the fourth with a
three-run splurge featuring
Jensen's two-run homer, but
the Senators picked up a run
in the fifth when Zorro Ver-
sales reached first on an error,
raced all the way to third on
a wild pitch and scored on Faye
Throneberry's pinch double.
