Round

At the moment the Junior Abbies appear to have a "New Big Four" pitching staff. Maybe it. will be extended to a "Big Fire“ or "B1: Six" mound staff before the sea- son is over. At least coach Randy l:ldwiirds hiis hopes that it will. In two exhibition games during the past week the Juniors have used four pitchers, all of them playing their first game of junior ball. They were unusually mean with base knocks and their perfor- niunccs came as eye-openers to many baseball observers.

. . .

The four pitchers are Vernon Haiidrahan, Lorne NAEUDCIUKQII, Robert Stanley and Donald Mac- Donald. Handvahan pitched four innings against the Air Force last Wednesday night and gave tip one single. Mac-Dougall pitched three innings and gave tip four singles. He gave up all of them during the first inning he worked and in the other frames issued only a walk. On Sundiiy afternoon Robert Stan- ley pitched four innings and gave up two hits. Donnie MacDonald went three and retired nine men in a row. Impressive debuts? Well, we would be ll'l(‘iill9d to think so. . . . Come August and some of these efforts may be forgotten but coach Randy Edwards d0ESI'l'l. think so. Edwards figures the “Four Liids," Handraliaii. MacI)ou':nll, Stanley and MacDonald, all 18 or under. will develop into very fine Pitchers before the year is over. Randy is a little surprised at the ability the boys have shown. He had Handra- han and Stanley in the Midgets last. year but MacDougall and Mac- Donald weren't even playing base- ball. 0 Randy hopes that the showing by these four boys will induce other youths around the City to try their hand at pitching. He thinks that there may be more uncovered in- lent around. At the ball field there. was talk that young MacDonald learned to throw by pitching softw- balls. That may be ,part.ially true but. we know lin gets plenty prac- tice near his home playing catch. His ratchet‘ sometimes is Donnie MacLean. the big right-hander of the intermediates pitching staff. . .. .

We see by the Sudbury star that Billy Purcell is playing baseball with the Sudbury Shamrocks in the Nickel Belt Senior Baseball League. The Stidbury paper shows a picture of six newcomers to the team, among them Purcell. Billy was offered a Class D Contract with the Pliiladelphiii Athletics or- ganization this spring but turned down the offer as he did not wish to play in the Kentucky heat-. Al- though playing Senlor baseball. Billy is still a junior, being 13 years old.

Cleveland stretched its American League lead to two games Monday by hanging out 22 hits as Eon Lemon and Ray Narlcskl defeated Boston Red Sox 13-5 for a sweep of the five-game series.

The Tribe climaxed its assault- a season‘: high for hits—with a six-run fifth inning in which George Strickland and Al Smith hit back- to-back home runs.

Strickland’: drive accounted for three runs. It was his fourth of the year and second of the series. Smith followed with a solo homer. his third of the'season.

The defeat stretched Boston‘: losing streak to seven games.

Lemon got credit for 'his eighth victory of the season against three losses but had help from Narleski during the last two innings.

The game marked the eighth time this year the Indians have defeated the Red, Sox without a loss and concluded a dismal Bos- ton home stand of only nine vic- tories in 23 games.
