However, the Dodgers made history by winning that first fone in County Stadium, Milwaukee. It was the first time ‘a team had won the first game of a playoff.

SLIGHT FAVORITES

The speedy White Sox who \clinched the pennant Sept. 22 are }11-10 favorites over the National | League champions in both the en- jtire series and the home opener. | Appar ly the odds makers fi- igure the Sox will be ready and leager after a three-day vacation from actual play while the Dodg- jers may be a little worn from ithe tense race and playoff. Manager Al Lopez, who signed

hitter 3-1, to New York Giants. He was playing for Lopez thea but as a member of Cleveland In- dians. SERIES EXPERIENCE

Craig, 28, broke in with the Dodgers in 1955 and pitched for them in both the '55 and °56 ser- ies-against New York Yankees. As a rookie up from class B. he won a game in ‘55, the only time the Dodgers ever won the world championship. In 1956 he lost one. Until June 17 he was toiling on the Dodgers’ Spokane farm club.

The schedule calls for games at Comiskey park today and Fri- day. After an off day Saturday for travel, they will resume Sun- day at the vast Los Angeles Col- iseum with its 94,000 seats. The

at Cleveland, Oct. 10, 1948 when the Indians played Bos- ton Braves. The largest winning share ever was the $11,174.90 each New York Giant received in 1954 for polishing off Lopez’ Indians in four straight.

FOURTH SOX FLAG

This was the fourth White Sox team to win a pennant but only the third to play a series. Their record for series play is 2-1, the lone defeat being charged to the

infamous Black Sox who were in- volved in the bribe scandal in 1919.

It was the 13th flag for the Dodgers for their first since mov- ing to Los Angeles. They have a 1-8 record in the series, winning only in 1955 when Podres was the big hero in a seven-game _vic- tory over the Yanks.

The amiable senor called on righthander .Early Wynn to hurl the opener against Los Angeles Dodgers today and, apparently, what Wynn does will dictate Lo- pez’ pitching plans for the rest of the series.

Lopez would pot name his sec- ond game pitcher and the guess- ing was between Bob Shaw, an 18-game winner and Billy Pierce, veteran lefthander who fell to a 14-15 record.

Larker let go with his booming double. Carl Furillo was out on a fly to Aaron but it wasn’t a time at bat for the crafty veteran as his long out brought in Hodges with the tying run. After that Wills singled to make the Duke's predicion very nearly 100%

correct.

And so the Dodgers who had a pennant taken from under

their noses back in 1951, turned

Of course had they lost that second game,

the tables in this year’s playoff. the series wasn’t

over. The Dodgers could have won the third game and the odds would be with them with Roger Craig slated to toe the mound. Butthey wanted no part of a third game because the memories of 1951 still haunted them. They had lost a pennant in the last of the ninth eight years ago and here was a chance—the first playoff chance since that time—to win a National League flag

in that very same inning.

DODGERS CONCLUDED what can be done to you, you can do to others. If the Giants of 1951 could ruin the Dodgers in the ninth, why couldn’t the Dodgers of 1959 do a comeback job on the Milwaukee Braves. If it was to be accomplished now was the time because Los Angeles had only three outs left to them.

This playoff stuff was not new to the Dodgers. Every time thé

National League could not name

a winner on the last day of the

fegular season, these Dodgers were there in a deadlock with

somebody. However, Milwaukee was getting

its first taste of

such a competition. The Dodgers had tried twice in-the past

and both times they had failed.

They felt it was somone else’s

turn to watch the series as a spectator.

And so the -Dodger machine started rolling and all

Pitchers Fred Haney could rue

the to the mound couldn’t halt the

march that was to lead Los Angeles into the 1959 world series with the Chicago White Sox. The great Dodger march from

seventh place in 1958 wasn’t to

stop until Alston had his char-

ges installed as the 1959 National League champions.

Now the experts are picking

the White Sox to beat the Dod-

gers. We'll have a few words to say on this tomorrow.
