nine victories and seven de-
featS.
BOmberS' Streak Dies
But there was a three-day ALL
Star break after the team lost
three to Kansas City, so it
seemed more like a ga trip.
The Senators won series from
three first-division teams, the
Twins, Angels and White Sox,
and got a split with the
Yankees when the Bombers
were working on a nine-game
winning streak.
Both StenhouSe and Daniels
have three of the nine victories
since the All-Star game. Dave
beat the Twins in 10 innings,
blanked the White Sox, 10, and
held Mickey Mantle and Roger
Maris hitless in an eight-strike-
out job yesterday. Daniels beat
the Twins with help, also won
10 over the White Sox, and
clouted a home run in winning
yesterdays second game.
To add to the enjoyment
yesterday the margin in homers
was Al for the Senators. Harry
Bright's 10th accounted for all

an inside-the-park homer. Jim
King clouted No. 8 into the up
per deck, and Daniels hit a long
poke into the right-centerfield
bleachers.
One out before the end Dale
Long Salvaged a lone homer for
the Yanks. The big guy tore into
one of Daniels fast balls and
put it deep in the right-center-
field bleachers.
COttier Fields SmartIy
1t was an errorless day for
the Senators, interspersed with
some smart fielding, topped by
three brilliant plays by Chuck
Cottier. In the opener Cottier
took a hit away from Yogi
Berra and started a swift Sec
ond-to-first double play off
Clete Boyer.
Cottier went as deep as some
rightfielders play in the seventh
inning of the second to SCOOP
up a drive by Long and throw
him out.
King whipped throws to sec
ond and third to nab Yankees
trying to take liberties with his
arm.
AS one of the Yankee officials
said, There was no question,
the Senators were the best club
in the series. We were fortu-
nate to win the first two by
one run. then Stenhouse threw
beautiful game at us, and
they bombed us in the last one.
And we were hot ball club"
StenhOuse Lauded
Almost everybody thought
Stenhouse's performance was
the finest of his nine major
league victories-all this sea-
son. Jim Piersall said it was
one of the best games he had
ever seen pitched in Yankee
Stadium. 1--WE never seen their
lefthand hitters look so bad,"I
Jim said.
For Dave it wasn't as sweet
as his first victory over the
YankS there May 6. II don't
think I'll ever have a thrill in
baseball to top that one" he
said.
He was also thinking about
that May game when Mantle
was the leadoff batter in the
ninth and had a 80 count.
Mickey hit 80 pitch into the
centerfield bleachers that day
for the only two Yankee runs.
At the time Dave said, I've
got a lot to learn"
Yesterday StenhouSe threw
a knuckle curve in that spot
and Mantle fouled it back. On
the next pitch Mickey hit a
roller to Bright on another
knuckle curve.
The high spots of STEM
houses game were consecutive
StrikeoutS of Bobby Richard
son, Maris and Mantle in the
fifth and sixth, and getting
Berra and Hector Lopez on

tween the last two Long sin
gled and Jack Reed, who ran
for him, stole second.
Dave did not appear to be
himself before the 25-minute
