Al thought it over, running over the
AIS centerfielders. I'D say it would have
to be among Lands, Mantle and Jim Pier
sall," he said. "You can separate them
after that"
TT ISN'T AS THOUGH LOPEZ never
has beaten the Yankees. He whipped 'em
as the manager of the Indians and again
as the White Sox genius. But the trick
isn't easy and Alphonse never refers to
these feats.
Apparently we've got the outfield," !"
Lopez said. 'T've no complaints about the
infield, either, or the catching. It's up to
the pitching"
Ed Short, who graduated from the
most prolific public relations director in
baseball to general manager, is less reserved
about his appraisals. It was Short who,

its four-team race in the American

the Sox and is gaining fame, steadily, as
the pilot least inclined to concede too much
Of anything to the Yankees.
Except ability and luck" Lopez was
qualifying last night before the twi-nighter
with the Senators. "T'he Yankees are good;
they're also lucky. We've played EN- five
times and they've won three games. The
record ought to be Al, us"
And the four teams, Senior?
''Well, the Yankees, our club, Cleveland
and Detroit" Lopez said. %It's an interest
ing league, but these are the teams I'd have
to say have a bona-fide interest in the.

HAD TT NOT BEEN for the Athletics,
Of all people, the White Sox might have
arrived in much healthier condition The

"They played like champions against

to succeed.
The talk on the White Sox bench was
on the optimistic side. Lopez Is high on his

Earl Robinson, Jim lands and Rookie Mike

The Senators fans have been
remarkably patient In the clubs
miserable start, working up
loud enthusiasm at the slight
est sign Of q rally and showing
restraint in criticism Of the
teams failures.
But last night there were
lusty and prolonged boos for
Chuck Hinton and Joe McClatn
as the Senators and White Sox
split q twi-night double e-header
before only s.s27. The Senators
won the first game, 9-3, behind
DON Rudolph, one Of their
newly-acuired southpaws, but
lost the second, rs.
The fans appeared to be feel
ing Illustration, as the Senators
were in q good spot to win q
pair. But Hinton, batting 1855,
skidded on the outfield grass to
set up two cheap runs in the
first inning Of the nightcap.
And with the tying run on base
In the eighth, he struck out for
the second time in the game, on
Q called third strike.
Throws to Wrong Base
McClain made an unbeliev-
able, unexplainable play In the
White Sox' ttree-run seventh
Of the second game when he
had O mental lapse and threw
to the wrong base to permit the
lead run to score.
It looked like q wonderful
evening for the Senators for a
while. Gene Woodling socked a
pair Of home runs and Dale
Long one in the first game.
Long had four hits and five
runs batted Ia for the night,
Rudolph tired near the end
Of the opener, but stuck it out
and won his first major league
start In his sixth trial with a
big league club. He gave UP
eight hits.
Evening star., 1962-05-10

Steve Hamilton. the other
southpaw obtained in the trade
for Willie Tasby, had a 4-2 lead
and had retired IA straight
batters through five innings Of
the second game. But after
Joe Cunningham's two run
homer gave the White Sox a
tie in the sixth, Hamilton gave
up singles to the first two
batters in the seventh.
Manager Mickey Vernon de-
cided that was enough for
Hamilton and brought in Nc
Claim, who had been sent to
the bullpen because Of failures
as a starting pitcher.
Luis Aparicio tapped q one
bouncer back to McClain and
Sam Esposito, who was on third
as a pinch runner. had started
to break for the plate. 1t ap-
peared that McClain had q
simple play on EspoSito, but for
some strange reason he whirled
and threw to second to force
Camilo Carreon.
It was much too late for q
double play, even If that is what
McClain had in mind, and
Esposito scored with the run
to break the 4-4 tie, McClain
then gave up three singles and
q long sacrifice fly to the next
four batters he faced before
Ray Ripplemeyer came on to
get the third out. That put
Chicago ahead, IA.
Rudolph Applauded
McClain was hooted unmer-
cifully as he walked to the
dugout. When Vernon went out
to the mound he asked Joe
why he did it. but the pitcher
didn't say q word.
While there were jeers for
Hinton and McClain, there also
was one Of the biggest rounds
of applause Of the season for
Rudolph when he walked off the

Sawatslki boosted his average

shutout ball for six innings and
gave up single runs in the last
three. one on Jim lands
eighth homer Of the season in
the eighth. He loaded the bases
with none out in the ninth,
but Vernon went to the mound
for a word with him and he
pitched out Of the inning on a
double play and foul pop.
The 30-year-old form er
White Sox pitcher walked only
three, had good stuff and
poise, but admitted that to-
wards the end his arm was ex-
tremely tired. He still appreci-
ated Vernon's confidence in
giving him q chance to pitch a
complete game.
Hamilton Impressive
Hamilton looked every bit as
impressive as in his brilliant re-
lief role in New York. He
moved down IA White Sox
after Hinton fell, turning q pop
fly to right by Lands into a
double that scored one run and
set up another. But the bad
pitch to Cunningham, after
Aparicio's double ended his
string and started his undoing.
Long and Woodling have held
hot hands that enabled the
Senators to divide their last
four games, two with the YAM
KEGS and two with the White
Sox.
In the double-headers Of
Sunday and yesterday, Long
had nine hits, three walks and
seven runs batted in. Wood
ling, in one start and three
pinch hitting roles in the same
games, had five hits, including
three home runs, q walk and
