To Set Mark

MILWAUKEE, sept. 70 (AP).
Warren SPAIN, Milwaukee's
old dependable meal ticket,
boosted the Braves into a first
place tie with Los Angeles to-
day in the torrid National
League race. Spahn's 80 VIC
tory over Philadelphia's Robin
Roberts in a tight pitching
duel pulled the Braves even
with one game to 60.
When the Dodgers absorbed
a 1872 FASTING at the hands of
the Cubs, Milwaukee regained
the ground it had lost last
night in dropping the series
opener to the last-place Phil
lies, 6-3.
Spahn's victory, his 21st Of
the year and No. 267 of his IL
lustrious career, set a new
record for lefthanders in the
National League. 1t topped the
old mark held by Eppa Rixey
and tied by the Braves 38-year-
old southpaw Monday night in
Pittsburgh.
Giants Still Breathing
While the Braves we're easing
out this thinly cut decision over
the last-place Phils, the Dodgers
were Keeling around Wrigley
Field as the Cubs battered their
pitchers.
San Francisco, awaiting a
night double header in st.
Louis, could pull into a three
way tie if it wins its three
games and the Braves and
Dodgers lose tomorrow.
Just as the Braves dashed
from their dugout to start the
game, it was reported that AL
Dark of the Cubs had hit a
three-run homer against the
Dodgers at Wrigley Field.
All afternoon the radios scat
tered through the : stands
brought back glad tidings from
Chicago of more and more runs
by the Cubs.
FreeSe, Post Homer
SPAIN allowed only two hits
in the first five innings, but
they were home runs by Gene
Freese and Wally Post, so he
was fortunate to be tied with
Roberts at that stage. An un-
learned run pulled the Braves
even in the fourth on a wild
peg by Freese.
AS the game wore on, SPAIN
seemed to get stronger. AL
though he was pulled out Of
a deep jam in the seventh by
fine defensive play and saved
again by a nice play by Short
stop Johnny Logan, he finished
his f1ve-hit job with a flourish.
After Milwaukee finally
crashed through for a third
run off Roberts in the last Of
the eighth, SPAIN struck out
both Ed Bouchee and Post and
made Freese loft a game-end-
ing fly to Lee Maye in left.
Singles by Ed Mathews and
Hank Aaron, a sacrifice bunt by
Joe Adcock and an intentional
walk to Maye loaded the bases
against Roberts in the eighth.
The tie-breaking run scored as
Bobby Avila forced Maye at
second, Mathews scoring.
Thus the sizzling race came
right down to the final day Of
the season. The Braves finish
at County Stadium against the
laSt-place Phillies and the
Dodgers wind up at Chicago.
II the teams are tied after to-
; morrow'S games, they will start
a best-of-three playoff Mon
day afternoon in Milwaukee.
Manager Eddie Sawyer of the
PhilS named Highlander Jim
Owens Q2-1D to pitch the
last game. He has a 10 record
against Milwaukee. Manager
Fred Haney of the Braves was
undecided but was expected to
name Highlander Bob Bull

time edge over the PhilS.

Braves, LA. Tied With to Go;
No. Hitter by Jones Saves Giants
Sam Stops
Cards., 40,
Before Rain

ST. LOUIS, Sept. rs (AP).-
Unpredictable Sam Jones of
the still-hopeful Giants pitched
the second no-hitter Of his ma
jor league career tonight,
throttling the Cardinals, 40,
for his 21st victory in a game
halted in the eighth inning by
high winds and heavy rains.
Jones magnificent effort in
the first game Of a scheduled
twilight double-header kept
alive the Giants thread-thin
chance for a tie in the piping
hot National League pennant
race.
The second game was post
poned and reset as part Of a
double header tomorrow. There
were two out in the top Of the
eighth when play was inter-
rupted.
Barest Of Chances
Bill Rigney's Giants now
trail the Dodgers and Braves
in a dead heat for the league
lead-by IA games. They still
have two to play while the
Dodgers and Braves have one
each to go tomorrow.
The Giants only hope is for
both of the leaders to lose to-
morrow while San Francisco
sweeps a pair from the Red
birds.
The 33-year-old Jones, in the
seventh season Of a checkered
career that includes a nine
inning no-hitter over Pitts
burgh in 1855, walked two and
struck out five in registering
the first no-hitter over the
Cards in 40 years.
His only lapses were walks
to Joe Cunningham in the first
and to Alex Grammas in the
sixth.
Only one runner-Grammas
reached second as funnel
clouds danced in the area and
the storm raced toward the
stadium.
Jones had plenty of extra
base support in notching his
first victory since September
IL. Three Of his Is defeats
came while he was in quest Of
victory No. 81.

Willie Mays weighed in with
his saith homer. and Willie
McCovey hit his 18th.
Mays homer cleared the left
field wall at the 358-foot mark
after Felipe Alou's double play
ball erased Jose Pagan, on
base with a lead-of single in
the first inning.
McCovey's single, an error
and a walk loaded the bases,
but Ed BreSsoud hit into a
force-out to end the inning.
Orlando Cepeda's double. be-
hind a walk and a forceout,
gave the Giants a 20 edge in
the third. 1t was the only third
extra-base hit for last years
MI rookie of the year in his
last 81 times at bat. The loss
was charged to Vinegar Bend
Mizell, now 1910.
Ernie Broglo came on in the
seventh and promptly gave up
two runs. He struck out Pagan
and Alou. but Stan Musial let
Mays scorcher get through him
for a two-base error and then
McCovey unloaded his homer.
With two out in the top of
