bosses now will be cnagrined
if he doesn't finish the season
in that s'----"7r neighbor.lood.
II hurt my shoulder in spring
training last year." Gardner
said. "I ripped some muscles
on a cold day playing against
the Yankees and never was
right after that. Now I'm all
right"
1t was pointed out to Gard
ner, though, that in six seasons
in the majors he compiled a
scrawny .233 lifetime batting
mark. Last years .217 hitting
with Baltimore was little less
disastrous than his .225 batting
with the same club the previous
season.
We'll, I changed" Billy said.
II used to swing for home runs.
I finally decided I wasn't get
ting too many homers. Now I'm
happy to meet the ball, to slap
it around. Maybe I should
have switched to that sort Of
style long ago"
+ y = =
Gardner's batting pattern is
to hit 800 every five years. AS
a 15-year-old kid who quit
Chapman Tech High at New
London, Conn.,, Billy batted 1923
with Bristol, Tenn, in 1945.
He was forced to fake his age
as Is, and thus the record
books show he'll be 33 next
month instead of his actual 80.
He also batted 1903 with
Sioux City in 1850 and $40
with Minneapolis in 1855. He
deviated from the flve-Vear
plan only once, to bat 1903 with
Nashville in 1858. This is his
year to get back on the beam
and swat 800 again.
Baseball has cost Billy eight
teeth. He lost five, while COW
ering first base. when a ball
blanced of the runners helmet
into GardnG's face. The other
three were knocked out as the
result of a Paul Foytack fast
ball.
Gardner's talent isn't con-
fined to the field. Sportscaster
Chuck Thompson recalls stroll
ing into a Chicago pool hall
with Billy, who watched the
action for awhile, then picked
up a cue and moved into ac-
ton. The Sharpies who be-
lieved they had a soft touch
were stunned where it hurt.
Gardner could have the same
sort of season with Washington
this year as he experienced
with the Orioles in 1857. That
season he batted a helpful 1852,
led the league with 36 doubles
and was voted Baltimore's most
popular player by fans.
His popularity didn't end
there. Manager Paul Richards
declared, when Gardner de-
parted to join the Senators,
that Billy always could have q
job in the Orioles organiza-
ton as long as Richards re-
manned with the club.
BILLY doesn't say much"
Lavagetto said. He lets his
actions speak for him and so
far I'd say it adds to an Grafton.
He's what we've needed at Sec
ond base"

oled. Norm siebern singled
hem across, but Hal then re-
tired Is in a row.
Meanwhile, the Senators
shelled Bud Daley, who couldn't
get anybody out in the first in
ming. Pete Whisenant doubled,
Billy Gardner singled him
across, Bob Allison blasted a
home run into the visiting bull
pen and Jim Lemon singled to
chase Daley. That 80 situa-
ton existed with two down in
the top of the sixth.
The Woodeshick took an
easy tap back to the mound by
Jerry Lumpe. Hal had fired
low to second base in the first
inning in completing a double
play after snaring a liner. This
time he got off a weird low
throw to First Baseman Julio
Becquer from IS feet away for
a two-base error.
Siebern, who batted in four
runs, singled across the tying
run after Carey walked, and
the AS took a 4-3 lead in the
seventh when Hank Bauer
slugged his second homer Of the
year into the leftfield seats.
On the next play Woodeshick
forced Becquer to leap high for
another errant toss. When he
finally tipped one accurately to
Julio after fielding Bob Trow-
bridges grounder, the crowd
cheered him derisively.
The Senators spurted into a
5-4 lead with two runs off
Trowbridge in the seventh.
Becquer singled and Lennie
Green was nicked by a pitch.
Faye Throneberry sacrificed,
and the Senators got a break
when Carey bobbled Gardner's
grounder long enough for Bee
quer to score.
Allison looped a double to
right, scoring Green, but when
Gardner also tried to score he
was nailed on Bauer's fine
throw. Allison, who went to
third on the throw to the plate,
was stranded when Lemon
flied out:
Kansas City tied the score
at SIS against winner Don Lee
in the eighth on singles by Bill
Tuttle and Carey, plus Sic
bern's sacrifice fly, but again
the Senators bounced back.
Harmon Killebrew touched
off the winning rally with a
single to left. Earl Battey sac
rif1ced, and both runners were
safe when Carey threw too late
to second. Jose Valdivielso
moved them up with a bunt,
and Becquer singled them
across. Green followed with a
triple to right.
The AS picked up a final run
of Truman Clevenger in the
ninth when Russ Snyder socked
a pinch single and Danny Krav-
its delivered a pinch double

THE BASEB BALL
BEAT
BY BURTON HAWKINS

Billy Gardner, the man of
the pirouette pivot. is in the
process of making the Senator'S
a more respected team. He
cost them a game with a
grievous error in New York, to
be sure, but Gardner's me-
chanical errors are forgotten
quickly by Cookie Lavagetto,
who is getting more hitting
from his second baseman than
he dreamed possible.
A quiet fellow, perhaps be-
cause huge wad of tobacco
generally is blocking the route
to conversation, Billy is giving
the Senators their slickest sec
ond base play in years. Give him
a sporting shot at a double-play
and it will be completed with
a whirling pivot which eener-
ally removes him from the path
of the onrushing runner.
1t wasn't something that
came naturally, that leaping,
spinning maneuver. 'I worked
on it by the hour at Mime
apoliS in 1885," Billy Naid. IT
had been playing mostly at
third base in the minors, hut
the Giants wanted me to switch
to second. 1t took a lot of
practice, that pivot"
= =
When the Senators acquired
Gardner from the Orioles this
spring for Clint Courtney and
Ron Sanford, they knew Chey
were landing a reliable fielder
with a glowing reputation for
a double-plsy What
they didn't know is that they
were obtaining a .305 hitter.
That's Billy's average at the
moment. at least. and he has
been so consistent that his
