been fooling with it ever since
I came up to the St. Louis
Browns in 1953 (under Marion),
but I was afraid to throw it
much. I thought it might be
bad for the elbow. Jim Turner
(Yankee pitching coach) and
Yogi Berra encouraged me to
keep on throwing it and it’s
Anally paying oS.”
Berra, seated nearby, nodded.
“He was mixing them up pretty
good but the slider was his
money pitch today,” Yogi said.
“He had real good control of it.
He was throwing strikes all
afternoon."
Stengel made no attempt to
conceal his elation.
“He didn’t look like much be
fore we sent him down but right
now he’s first class,” Casey said.
"The way he’s going he might be
my No. 1 guy. He seems to know
what he’s doing out there and
he’s shown no trace of the sore
arm that made him practically
useless all spring.”
Larsen acknowledged the
spring soreness but couldn’t ac
count for the malady.
“I didn't go to any doctors or
anything after they sent me to
Denver,” he said. “I Just pitched,
that’s all. I guess I pitched the
soreness out.”'

ahead to stay In the sixth with
his seventh homer of the season
with the bases empty.
Gorman took over the pitch
ing for Kansas City at the start
of the eighth and gave up a
home run to Bob Nleman, the
first hitter he faced.
Kiner Hits Grand Slam
Cleveland had home runs by
A1 Rosen and Hal Naragon (his
first In the majors), but trailed
the Tigers, 4-2, on the strength
of Earl Torgeson’s two-run
homer off Mike Garcia in the
seventh. Then after pinch sin
gles hy Hoot Evers and Hank
Foiles and A1 Smith’s bunt single,
Klner put A1 Aster’s first pitch
over the left-field fence.
Two Innings earlfer, Aber had
relieved Rookie Jim Bunning to
fan Klner with the bases loaded.
It was Kiner’s 14th home run
of the season, the 365th of his
career and the four runs batted
in gave him a major league total
of 1.001.
Big Don Larsen pitched the
Yankees to their victory over
Boston’s Frank Sullivan, win
ning on Andy Carey’s single over
Ted Williams’ head with two out.
Larsen Retires 18 in Row
The tense struggle found
Larsen retiring 18 consecutive
batters from the time Jim
PiersaU singled to start the
seventh until he walked Sullivan
to open the 13th.
Billy Klaus. Boston's fine
shortstop, fumbled Yogi Berra’s
roller, to give the Yanks their
opening in the 13th. After Joe
Collins sacrificed, moving Berra
to second, Manager Pinky
Higgins ordered Sullivan to walk
Irv Noren, with two righthanded
batters coming up.
Hank Bauer broke his bat on
a weak pop fly to Sullivan for
the second out but Carey drove
a long liner over Williams’ head
for a game-winning single as
Berra rode home with an un
earned run. Williams and the
other Boston outfielders were
playing in close.
Both Masterful Pitchers
Sullivan and Larsen were com
plete masters of the occasion. In
fact, Sullivan had a ane-hltter
for 7Vi Innings until the Yanks
put on a threat with Gil Mc-
Dougald’s single and a walk to
Mickey Mantle in the eighth.
Boston got to Larsen for two
in the second on Grady Hatton’s
single with the bases loaded.
Sam White had to leave the
gan\f in the fourth as the result
of being hit above the left elbow
by Larsen in the second. He went
to the hospital for X-rays that
proved negative. Pete Daley took
his place.
The Yanks tied the score in
the third with only one hit, a
single by Berra. Carey walked
and Larsen had a life when Billy
Goodman fumbled his grounder.
Phil Rizzuto’s sacrifice bunt
moved both men up a base. Mc-
Dougald’s sacrifice bunt squeezed
home Carey and sent Larsen to
third. After Mantle walked.
Berra lined a single past
Zauchln, scoring Larsen.
Larsen now has beaten Kansas
City, Detroit and Boston since
his return from Denver where he
compiled a 9-1 record. Earlier In
the year he had a 1-1 record with
the Yanks and brought his sea
son big league mark to 4-1.
Rain postponed Washington
at Baltimore In the only other
American League game on tap.
Dodgers Beat Giants
In the National. Brooklyn
topped New York, 5-4, In a game
called In the seventh by rain;
St. Louis put second-place Mil
waukee 15 games back. 7-2;
Pittsburgh edged Philadelphia,
3-2, In 10 Innings, and Cin
cinnati took two at Chicago,
7-2 and 6-3.
Gil Hodges drove In three runs
with a double and single as the
Dodgers packed their scoring In
the first two frames. The Giants
scored twice in the first with
out a hit against Rookie Roger
Craig. Karl Spooner won in
relief after Craig went wild again
in a two-run Giants fifth.
St. Louis smacked 11 hits,
three each by Stan Musial and
Alex Grammas, while Tom Po
holsky held the Braves to six.
Musial got his I,oooth extra
base hit with a double.
Ted Kluszewski hit his 37th
homer (his 200th lifetime) and
the Cubs’ Ernie Banks tied
Brooklyn’s Duke Snider for the
major league lead with his 38th
in the second game as the Red
legs snapped Chicago’s six-game
winning streak. Rookie Don
Gross won his first major league
decision in the opener.
A bases-loaded single by Jerry
Lynch won for the Pirates, who
had an early 2-0 lead on Frank
Thomas’ two-run homer.
