a total Of IL runs behind him
in his next six games and lost
five of them. His record was
7-6 when the Senators pur-
chased him.
Several clubs, notably the
Angels, and even the Yankees,
have had considerable success
with veteran pitchers with
backgrounds similar to Rid
zik'S. And remember Paul Rich
ards retreads in Baltimore,
none of them youngsters.
1t was like old home week
when Steve reported to the
Senators. He had roomed with
Hobie Landrith on the Reds,
and played with Don thinner
in Puerto Rico. And he had
been with Jim King in Toronto,
Pete Burnside in Minneapolis
and Ken Retzer at San Diego.

Orioles Shade
Twins, II, on
Brandt's Triple

BALTIMORE, July 6 CAP).-
The Orioles scored twice in the
third inning on Jackie Brandt's
triple and hung on to beat the
Twins, 81, in a duel between
southpaw pitchers today.
Dave Mentally, 20 = year : old
Baltimore fast-baller, collected
his third victory against as
many defeats, although he re-
quired help from Stu Miller in
the eighth inning.
Mentally had yielded seven
hits and only one run - Bob
Allison's 21st home run in the
sixth inning when he was
taken out with Harmon Kille-
brew on first, two out, and AL
lison at bat. Miller famed AL
lison.
Brandt's two-run triple off
Dick Stigman came with men
on first and second and two

Most of them are not old
enough to qualify.
But newcomer Steve Ridzik
is. He was not pitcher of rec
ord, and not eligible for the
World Series. but Ridzik was
with the Phillies during Sep
TENDER when the Whiz Kids
won the National League PEN
nant in so. He spent the next
year with the old Orioles, and
then resumed pitching for the
Phillies the next 312 years.
For the last 31a years Ridzik
has been a winning pitcher
with Toronto of the Interna-
tional League. About two weeks
ago he pitched a four-hitter
but lost, 80. In the clubhouse
somebody mentioned tn a t
George Case, a Senators scout,
was in the stands. That meant
nothing to Ridzik.
Four days later he pitched a
five-hitter but again the cellar
dwelling Maple Leafs lost, 80.
Case, who was still there, intro
duced himself after the game
and had a chat with Ridzik.
A couple of days later Ridzik
heard that George Selkirk, the
Senator'S general manager, was
visiting. He started putting two
and two together.
He was called to the office
of the Toronto general man
ager, and now two and two was
making four, because Selkirk
was there. Ridzik was told he
was being sold conditionally to
the Senators.
IT Just couldn't believe it,"
Steve said as he thought back
over the last few days in the
Senators clubhouse. TITS great
being back in the big leagues
again, just wonderful. When
you've been away for a few
years you appreciate it more
than ever
when you're "a years old
you are inclined to think your
chances in the majors are
over" the highlander said.
Ridzik won "A games for To-
ronto since 1860, and although
he has a residence in Yonkers,
N. Y, he was beginning to call
Toronto home. He is going to
marry a girl from that city in
the fall and he was in the
public relations business there
last winter.
Ridzik had been traded from
the Phillies to the Reds to the
Giants, but had won as many
as he had lost In the majors
(23 EACH when he came UP
with a sore arm in 1857, and
the Giants sent him to San
Diego.
IT figured / was through" the
husky, somewhat rugged-look-
ing pitcher said. "But a chiro-
practor discovered a pinched
nerve at the base of the back
OF my neck. He said 1t was SIM
liar to an injury that pro golf
ers have as a result Of hitting
hard ground too often"
After a series Of treatments
Ridzik resumed pitching and
his arm was normal, but appar-
emily the major league clubs
hung a sore-arm tag on him.
He came back to win four
games for San Diego in 1868,
but was sold TO Fort Worth
early in 1859 and he won is
games for the Texas club.
Toronto bought him in 1860,
and he helped pitch the Maple
Leafs TO the International
League pennant, winning Ia
and losing 10.
Ridzik won six of his first
gaven games this wear HIT had

Detroit baseball scout, died in
a hospital here today after a
heart attack. He was rs.
Goostree, who never made it

CLEVELAND, July 6 (AP).-
Jim Burning OF the Tigers and
Jim O'Toole of the Reds are
the likely starting pitchers for
the Saith All-Star baseball game
at Municipal Stadium at /
pm. Tuesday.
A crowd of $4,000 is expected
for the contest, which will be
carried by NBC radio and tele-
vision.
Returning to a single ALL
Star game after four years of
doubles, the American League
holds a 17-15-1 edge over the
National League in the series
dating back to 1888.
This will be the first at
Cleveland since 1854, when the
American League won, 11-9.
The only other All-Star game
in Cleveland attracted the rec
ord crowd of 69,831 on July 8,
1885. The American also won
that time, Al, with Lefty CO.
mez the winning pitcher.
Late Juggling
Both Manager Ralph Houk
of the Yankees and Alvin Dark
of the Giants had to do some
last-minute juggling because of
injuries.
Bill Mazeroski of Pittsburgh,
the starting second baSeman
for the Nationals on the vote
of players, coaches and man.
ayers, had to withdraw because
of an injured leg. Julian Javier
of st. Louis moved up to the
starting brigade, givin 6 the
National an entire Cardinal
infield with Bill White on
first, Dick Groat on short and
Ken Boyer on third.
Houk had to replace Steve
B arber, Baltimore's talented
lefthanded pitcher who suf-
fered a torn muscle in his right
calf in a firSt-base collision
earlier in the week. Bill Mon
bouquette of Boston replaced
Barber, leaving Houk only one
lefty.
Burning, who is having an
ordinary year for the Tigers,
has been something special in
All-Star games. In the last two
years he has worked a total Of
eight innings and has allowed
only one hit while blanking
the Nationals.
If Houk decides against Bum
ming, he undoubtedly will stick
with a highlander. Jim Bou-
ton, brilliant Yankee young
ster, and Ken Mcbride of Los
Angeles would be logical can
didates. With only two left
handed hitters in the National
League starting lineup, Houk
undoubtedly will save his
southpaw - Juan PiZarro of
Chicago-until later. Dick Ra-
datz of Boston is the big man
for the late-inning relief work.
Houk also has righthanded
Jim Grant and Monbouquette
on his seven-man staff.
Dark Wants Lefty
With Joe Pepitone of New
York, Leon Wagner and Able
Pearson of Los Angeles and
Nellie Fox of Chicago all left
handed batters, Dark is expect
ed to go for a southpaw.
O'Toole, a big winner for the
Reds who last worked Friday,
appears in line, altho g h
Sandy Koufax Of Los Angeles,
Warren SPAIN of Milwaukee
and Hal Woodeshick of Hous-
ton are available.
For righthanders Dark can
turn to his own Juan Marichal,
