Don Drysdale of Los Angeles
and joey Jay of Cincinnati are
the latest candidates to file for
the job of starting the All-Star
games for the National League
team, but the job may have
been taken.
Sandy Koufax, Drysdale's
Dodger teammate, weighed in
with such an impressive bid on
his Saturday night no-hitter
against the Nets that the
others may be wasting their
time.
Freddy Hutchinson, the man
ager who must make the de-
ciSion, is well aware that Kou-
fax's lefty tslants would be just
the thing to handle an Ameri-
can League lineup, heavily
spiked with lefthanded hitters.
However, Drysdale and Jay
kept their names alive yester-
day, especially the former. The
Dodger righthander struck out
13 Nets and pitched a 5-1, five
hitter to win mis- 14th game,
tops in the majors. He won only
13 all last season. Jay chalked
up No. IL with 6-1 nine-hitter
at Houston.
Loses on Errors
An unsung Chicago pitcher,
Don Cardwell, who has won
only five games, actually
turned in the best pitching job,
but he lost his two-hitter to
Milwaukee, 10, because of
fielding lapses, including his
own.
Despite the dramatic week.
end performances by the Dodger
pitchers, San Francisco still is
hanging in there with a half
game lead. Willie Mays two
run single was the big blow in
a three-run rally in the eighth
inning providing a 5-4 edge
over the troublesome Phillies.
st. Louis brought back some
of the old Cardinals and the
Yankees Of the 1912 World
Series on an Oldtlmers Day
program, but messed it up by
losing the regularly scheduled
game to Pittsburgh, To. Even
the sight of old Enos Slaughter
steaming around the bases on
a triple in the nostalgia game
couldn't make up for the three
run triple that Don Hoax hit
to beat the Cards in their fight
for third place.
Doubles Triumphs
So much has been written
about Drysdale in recent weeks
that it is difficult to add any
new praise except point up his
remarkable turnabout. He had
won only seven games at the
All-Star break last year. The
Nets only run came on a homer
by Sammy Taylor in the second.
Ron Fairly and Frank Howard
homered for the Dodgers
against ex-mate Roger Craig.
The Phillies outhit the
Giants. lat, but lost the game
when San Francisco got to Art
Mahaffey for three runs in the
eighth. He had allowed only
three hits, including a two-run
homer by Ed Bailey, up to that
point. Nahaffey hit Bailey.
starting the eighth, and then
came a single by Jim Daven-
port and a bunt single by
Pinch-hitter Matty Alou, load
ing the bases. Chuck Killers
single scored one run and Mays
singled to center for two more.
Don Larsen was the winner in
relief.
Robinson PAGES Reds
Jay allowed nine hits but
kept the Colts under control
most of the way. He survived
one major threat in the seventh.
Frank Robinson'S three hits
paced the Reds 14-hit attack
on loser Jim Golden and his
successors. Gordy Coleman hit
his 18th homer for the Reds.
Cardwell lost his two-hitter
in the third inning. Mack
Jones doubled and took third
when Cardwell fumbled Joe
Adcock's grounder before throw
ing him out. A passed ball
by Dick Bertell let Jones score
the lone run. Bob Hendley was
the winner.
Hoax ruined the day for
st. Louis fans when he tripled
off Stan Musials glove against
the leftfield wall with the score
tied at 2-2 in the sixth. The
victory put the Pirates two
games ahead of the Cards in
their struggle for third place,
AL Mclean allowed only six
hits and beat Larry Jackson.
The only homer was hit by
the Pirates Smoky Burgess,
his third in tuo games
