Jones then filed line in left Field. Cline s throw to the plate missed the runner. Willie Mays second 5 rally tops l. A. Solo Home run of the game in the eighth inning brought the giants into a 5-5 tie entering the ninth rallying giants scored three runs in the seventh inning on Willie Mccovey s 400-foot Home run and a two run Pinch single by Cline. Mays hit his first Homer in the fourth. Watson most valuable Detroit a Bryan Watson 25-year-old defens Eman for the Houston apollos was named the most valuable player in the Central professional hockey league wednesday. Los Angeles a Tito Francona s infield single in the ninth inning drove in his third run of the game triggered a four run rally i and sent at Lanta to a 7-3 Victory Over los Angeles wednesday night. Mike Lum led off the inning with a Pinch single and moved to third on Felipe Alou s single John Billingham replaced Jim Grant on the Mound and got Sonny Jackson to Force Alou Lum hold ing Hank Aaron was purposely passed loading the bases and Francona beat out a grounder to Paul Popo Viido at Short Withum scoring. Popovich threw the desk from Page 18. In 1957 but never got a Chance to swing a Bat in the finals. He cracked a Bone in his left wrist when he got nicked by an inside pitch and his team lost in the finals to the 5th regt 87th, incidentally beat a pretty fair country Pitcher and a helluva football player in the semifinals. Paul Giel Al America from Minnesota and Bonus baby with the new York giants pitched and managed the 7th army up tips through the quarterfinals before bowing to the 87th in the semis. In 1953 Usa eur had a to be major league Battery when Carlton Willey and. Norm Sherry toiled for the 4th div up tips. Willey went on to hurl for Milwaukee and Sherry caught forthe dodgers., in the same year a shortstop by the name of Ken Boye played in relative obscurity with the 28th div arty. Ken made it very big later on with the St. Louis cardinals where Hewon the map in 1964. All this fuss about Roberto de Vicenzo s goof in the master Sis for the Birds. The rules have Long been Laid Down and that s the Way the game is , de Vicenzo never had a thing to say about changing the rules. All he said was that he really goofed. Roberto who has played in several tournaments Here at Ramstein s Woodlawn open was t celebrating the error but like All the top pros he did Alibi that Bug me big to do about the spitball in baseball. It seems to be the easiest thing to do is to let them go ahead and throw anything they can up to the Good hitters Are going to get their base knocks anyway. Heck in the Good old Days when they threw spitball Shine balls Emery balls or loaded it up with Slippery Elm the Good hitters did t squawk. And the records show there were a lot More Guy sin the .300 class than they have around now. Seems to me that they Are cleaning the game up too much. A Little sweat saliva and dirt won t Hurt the National pastime. Also in the Bug that Don t Start on time because someone forgot to line the Field or bring the Ball. I always figured if you went to the trouble to schedule a game you ought to be read to play by game time. Things i be always wanted to know Ruth was paid $80,000 for playing with the new York Yankees in 1931. Willie Mays gets $125,000 for playing with san Francisco this year. In terms of buying Power How much would Willie have to get to equal the babe s 1931 salary Here it is right from the professor of finance at new Yor University professor Lawrence w. Ritter. On his $80,000, Ruth paid $11,500 income taxes giving him take Home pay of $68,500," writes Ritter. On his salary of $125,000, Mays paid a Federal income tax of $73,000, leaving$52,000 in take Home pay. In addition consumer prices today Are about 2.2 times As High As they were in 1931. At today prices Mays $52,000 take Home pay will Only buy what $23,600 would have bought in 1931. In terms of purchasing Power Mays salary was Worth Only about a third of Ruth s. If Mays were to receive As much purchasing Power today Sruth did in 1931, he would have to be paid $454,000, this would be reduced by income taxes of $303,300 to a take Home pay of$150,700, which at current prices is what it would take to buy what Ruth could Purchase with Bis $68,500 in 1931." Well there you have it i be often wondered Why the boys quibble Over a few thousands after they reach the 100 class. Like the prof said they hardly have anything to take i i. A _ j 1 a. 1 _ 1_. As they open the Gates the Only thing can i find a horse that can hit a Occam Elf hitter a hit wildly to first per the play Jackson score. One out later Clete Boyer doubled driving in the last two runs of the in Ning. The dodgers tied the score 3-3, with two runs in the eighth in Ning against right hander Pat Jarvis. Zoilo Versalles started the rally with a single an scored As Willie Davis sliced a triple to left Davis scored onion fairly s sacrifice Fly. The braves had gone ahead,3-1 with an eighth Iriri Irig re off reliever Jim Brewer it came when Francona Pinch hitter to Nimie Aaron and Boye hit successive singles.
