TRIP COBOURG 12-3 McCallum Transporters Stretch ated Streak To 8 Games By BOB RIFE COBOUR Oshawa McCallum Trans»orters jumned into a three- | and-a-half game lead in the Lake- shore Intermediate Baseball | League here Saturday afternoon when they soundly trounced second Jace the Cobourg Legionnaries The game was played in very cool windy weather that more than a little to do with the score. The wind caught the ball and carried it away from the fielders | for hits, and the temperature pre- vented the pitchers from getting Starting the winning pitcher for the Transporters was Bill Ging- erich. It's his third start of the vear, his second win against no | defeats. Bill was shaky in spots | and his control wags not overly | good. He walked six batters and fanned three while giving up seven | hits for three runs. Still . . he was tough in the clutch, where it counted. In the first inning with the bases loaded and one out, he got the second out to ground to the infield and the last out by a pop-up. HIS FIRST LOSS Jim Ingamells was the losers for Cobourg. It was his first defeat as against three victories. He is a "Junk" pitcher and in the cool windy weather he just wasn't hit- ting the spots. Oshawa batters got to him for 14 hits and 12 runs. He fanned three and walked three. showing fair ccntrol. His big trouble lay in the defensive fielding behind him. » His mates put* together seven errors for a real whoop-de-do ses- sion. The first of these was an error not marked on the books. It oc- curred in the top of the second when Brian Coggins stepped to the plate with two men on base. Brian lined the ball into right where Sonny Beckstead, ex-Batawa Senior outfielder was playing. Beckstead moved in and thereby misjudged the ball allowing it to go over his head for a homerun. The Transporters added four runs in the third for a 7-0 lead when Cook, Kellar and McArthur con- tributed sipgles to a base-running attack that included to stolen bases, two walks and an error. LEGION'S 1ST RUN Chub Meclvor pop) the ball into right field and the wind greg. ged it to the foul-line where it bounced into some shurbbery. When Ted Barnes had retrieved it, Mclvor was on third. The next batter lined out to the shortstop, who turned to third to try to catch that runner off-base. His toss was wide and the runner moved easily to the plate for Co- bourg's first rum. Oshawa got that one back and another besides in the top of the fifth on singles by McArthur and Barnes. Cobourg rallied in the bot- tom of the inning for a pair on an error, a single by Beckstead, a walk and a single by Huskilson. That made the score 9-3. In. the sixth, Bill Kellar made first on an error, stole second, EVERYBODY IN FORM Oshawa Cricket Club Routs West Indians in Godin Match Putting on one of their finest performances in st-war years Oshawa Cricket Club routed the | West Indians in a Godin League match at High Park, Toronto, on Saturday. The local eleven smashed up 159 runs in two - hours - and - a -| quarter. That is its highest league score for the past three years and it completely demoralized the op- postion team. Right through the at order the Oshawa men pla; confidently and steadily. *Lefty'"' Howarth continued his | outstanding season with a score of 36 before he was brilliantly caught by Knight from a hard, high-flight- ve Ni Crashing shots all around the * fast and bumpy field, Oshawa bats who reached doupie for John Huband, Len Harris, Dennis Owen and Jim Brown. Don Prin- gle, playing his former team - mates, made nine not out. The unlucky West Indian wicket- keeper had a hopeless task in trying to control the erratic balls and proved to be Oshawa's 12th man -- he let 38 byes go at That in itself is believed to a league record. Veteran player Walker tried hard to rally his men. He him- self bowled 20 overs and took six Oshawa wickets for 47 runs with his slow, crafty deliveries. Going out to bat after the tea interval the West Indians walked into a devastating attack. Joe Mc- Donald and Al Haley were in un- playable form and stumps and pails flew in a mad melee of wick- ket-shattering. Len Harris, field- ing at mid-off, gathered three catches. . Only two of the Indians were dangerous at the wicket. Camp- bell, one of the league's best bats, was clean-bowled by Haley when he had made six and Walker was run out when Dick Brimmell threw in from square leg and snicked off a bail. Easing up, the Oshawa men let the Indians score 44 before captal Haley tossed the ball to Harris with instructions to '"'finish this off'. Harris obliged by taking the last wicket with his first delivery. Haley took four wickets for 23 runs and McDonald five for 15. Next Saturday the local team will be playing an exhibition match at Lakeview against a team repre- senting Dowty Sports and Social Club of Ajax. 18TH IN ROW FOR YANKEES Bombers Ruin Cleveland's Big Chance Braves Beat Bucs Twice. Regain Lead By ED CORRIGAN Associated Press Sports Writer Unless Al Lopez is an incurable 0] ist, he could do worse than 'give his Cleveland Indians a little talk today--something like this: "We've tried everything to beat those Yanks, but whatever we do, they manage to go us one better. When we streak, they put together 2 bees steak. When we have fhe , they manage get Bis blow to beat us. When we have the hitting, they outslug us. Let's concentrate on nailing down sec- ond place this year and give it another whirl in 1954." Until a week ago, Lopez still talked nnant. But the clean swe] the for-game series that pit 1 with a double conquest 6-2 and 3-0 for the Yanks Smday just about knocked the breath and hope out of the Tribe. Casey Stengel and his swash- buckling crew now are 10% games ahead of the Indians with the sea- son not half over. THREATEN OWN RECORD The Yankees have won 18 games in a row, the third longest winning streak in American League history. In 1906, Chicago White Sox put together a string of 19 games, and the Yanks of 1947 duplicated the feat. Both won the pennant. New York Giants of 1916 set the major league record of 26 straight victories. The crowd of 74,708 saw Yankee catcher Yogi Berra knock in enough runs to win each game. _ In the peer Yogi hit a home run off Bob Lemon with two on in the eighth with his team behind 2-1. In the second game he clouted a trile in the fourth with two more mates aboard. Lemon lost the first, and Mike Garcia, who permitted only seven hits, was the nightcap victim. Johnny Sain, Bob Kuzava and Allie Reynolds all saw service for ame. Ku- . Vic Raschi tossed a three-hit shutout in the second contest. ANOTHER KIND OF STRING On the subject of streaks, St. Louis Browns lost their 14th straight when they took a twin shellacking from Philadelphia Ath- letics 4-1 and 3-1. This equalled Browns' longest losing streak which the 1940 club ran up and is only six short of the American League record of 20 fet by Boston Red Sox of 1906 and the Athletics of '35 and 43. The White Sox moved into third place with a pair of triumphs over the Red Sox 6-0 and 1-0. The White Sox now hold a half-game margin over the Red Sox and Washington Senators. Billy Pierce tossed the first shut- out for the Pale Hose, giving up only two hits, and Sandy Consuegra w the second. The Senatoms slugged Detroit Ti- gers 6-1 hind the strong-arm hurling of Frank Shea. | The see-saw battle for first place in the National League con- tinued between Milwaukee Braves and Brooklyn Dodgers. The amaz- ing Braves edged past the Brooks by winning a doubleheader from Pittsburgh Pirates 7-3 and 8-0. Don Liddle pitched a five-hitter for Charlie Grimm's lads in the first game and Bob Buhl came right back with a two-hit job in the afterpiece. The Brooks knocked off Chicago Cubs 6-3 in the opener of their scheduled doubleheader. But in the nightcap they were held to a 6-6 tie. The Dodgers were ahead 62 in the ninth when Ralph Kiner smashed a home run with the bases loaded to tie the count. ROBIN ROBERTS BEATEN Ken Raffensberger. outpitched Robin Roberts as Cincinnati Red- legs beat Philadelphia Phillies 2-1 in the first game of a double- header. The Phils came back to win the second 4-1. Harvey Haddix and Sal Maglie hooked up in another pitching duel, the | the former hurling St. Louis Card- inals to a 1-0 triumph in the first game of a twin bill. The Cads also won the nightcap 9-4 behind Vinegar Bend Mizell.

Montreal Royals Sweep Ottawa - While Leafs Split With Bisons By THE CANADIAN PRESS Montreal Royals remained com- fortably in the International Base- ball League lead, sweeping a Sun- day twin bill from the sixth-place Ottawa Athletics. Tom Lasorda pitched the Royals to a 5-1 victory in the opener, allowing only four scattered hits Last season he worked on a $1,500 plus basis and made $2, - 250. This year he wants a flat $2,000 plus. If we are not mistaken, that wage which he picked up last season was about the amount used to run the Red Raiders for the whole season ... in fact we imagine our figuring leaves the Raiders lots of play- ing room! Wonder just who Tony thinks he is? We've seen that Peter- boro team. They are a group of tough babies from Orillia, and Peterboro who know their stuff ... he didn't show "em that much. Tony is now married to a Peterboro girl and expects to take up residence in the Lift- lock City ... regardless of the football issue. See where Ike Hildebrand, ex-Oshawa General and a fine lacrosse player, is: leading the Peterboro Senior Trailermen by a wide margin with 21 goals and 22 assists. That gives him 43 points. In second spot is Curly Mason with 28. . . .by Bob Rife and fanning seven. Montreal took the abbreviated nightcap 8-4.

The Royals lost a Saturday game 6-4 to Toronto Maple Leafs, whose Bobby Hogue held the Montrealers to only two safeties until they got to him in the seventh for another three. Lew Sleater finished game. Rochester Red Wings, three games pack of the Royals, lost both ends of a doubleheader to Springfield Cubs, 5-4 and 3-2. Reliefer Tony Jacobs, who took over from George Long in the sixth of the opener, was the win- ner. Don Elston hurled six-hit ball |to chalk up his fifth win in the nightcap.
