UMPIRES’ THUMBS ‘BUSY
Oriole manager Paul Richards,
whose team has lost seven
straight, was ejected from both
Sunday games at Detroit, joining
‘his outfielder Gene Woodling on
the sidelines in the first game
and outfielder Cal-Nieman in the
showers in the second, both times
after disputes with the umpires,
Nieman was tossed out for
arguing bitterly that a home-run
by Harvey Kuenn of the Tigers
was foul. - 2 )
Hard-hitting Roger Maris and
fireballing Pedro Ramos shared
hero honors in the long double -
bill at Kansas City. Maris was
the big gun for the Atletics in
the first game with two home
runs, one with three aboard, a
triple and a double.
In the nightcap, Ramos came
on relief for Washington in the
ninth, and finally got a victory
15 frames. He had to
weather four near-disasters, as
the Athletics left 10 men stranded

pitched.

UMPIRES’ THUMBS ‘BUSY
Oriole manager Paul Richards,
whose team has lost seven
straight, was ejected from both
Sunday games at Detroit, joining
‘his outfielder Gene Woodling on
the sidelines in the first game
and outfielder Cal-Nieman in the
showers in the second, both times
after disputes with the umpires,
Nieman was tossed out for
arguing bitterly that a home-run
by Harvey Kuenn of the Tigers
was foul. - 2 )
Hard-hitting Roger Maris and
fireballing Pedro Ramos shared
hero honors in the long double -
bill at Kansas City. Maris was
the big gun for the Atletics in
the first game with two home
runs, one with three aboard, a
triple and a double.
In the nightcap, Ramos came
on relief for Washington in the
ninth, and finally got a victory
15 frames. He had to
weather four near-disasters, as
the Athletics left 10 men stranded
in the seven innings Ramos
pitched.
