Wallace Moon followed with a sin gle, advancing to second on the throw in. Clean up batter Cotton Lindloff punched a roller to the third baseman, who in turn threw wild to first, scoring Wallace and Moon. After advancing to second on the overthrow at first, Lindloff came home on Russell Mays single to end the scoring in the first in ning. f!; / After Joe Savarino, manning the second base position for the day with Lindloff on.first, put two men away in the first of the second in ning, the Aggies collected two more runs in their share of the frame. Savarino walked, after Bruce Morisse had been caught off base, stole second, went Jto third on a passed bail, and'scored on • wild throw to third. Wallace also walked und came home on a double steal. Wallace scored again in the fifth inning after walking and stealing seedwl on Wallace Moon’s single to center. The lust Farmer runs catne in the seventh inning.

Lou Boudreau Still Bee ft Over Stewart’s Decisions J • 1 1 By FRANK ftK’K .n AP Newsfeulitres NEW YORK - Lou Boudreau’s new hook "Pluyer-Munager" makes interesting reading, especially those pages he devotes to Utnftlro Bill Stewart’s decisions on several close plays In Inst October’s World Bcrles. • '.. / Boudreau, Cleveiami’s short-stop manager, still insists the National League umpire made two bad calls against the American League champions j n theit series with the Boston Braves. On one of the de cisions, Louie is writing through his hat. The particular item with which I found fault concerns a play in the fourth game before a Saturday crowd of 81,897 in Cleveland. In the last half of the first inning, Diale Mitchell led off with a single through the box and advanced to second afe Larry Doby grounded out. -i Boudreau then lined a hit along the right field foul line, scoring Mitchell. Well here are Lou’s exact words—in the book. “Unfortunately, I tried to stretch my hit to a triple and Umpire Bill Stewart called me out on a close play at third. I thought I had slid under the tag (Bob Elliott made the tag) and I exchanged a few cannot be now, any cjue^tion but /, j / hot words with Blawftrt,j bftt as al ways, the umpiru has thq last word, I/wts still out.” . Th« last tima I talked lo Bou dreau while ho was wearing his hnsohnll uniform was Ini his dress ing room In Cleveland. rU> had this to say: “As I ran towards stcojnd base I looked tip and saw ti e ball hit ting the right field feme and that Tommy Holmes was aft«r jt. After passing second I look 'd j at Bill. (Bill McKechnie, third base coach) and he had his hands 'up. (this was a signal to hold up at second base.) But it was too late t6 do anything about it.” This, if anything, vjasj an ad mission by Louie that he was out. His; quotes got a gooc play i and it’s ^surprising that Lop failed to mention them in his jbopk. And they weren’t uttered wliile he was cooling off. 1 ' Boudreau also goes into detail on the widely-discusspd | pick-off play and refuses to give an inch. It happened in the first game in Boston in the eighth ipning while Bob Feller of the Ihdians and Johnny Sain of the Braves were pitching their hearts out in a scoreless duel. “There w'asn’t then, and there that pick-off attempt (Phil Musi, Boston cat wupi on Nocond) was the. of i the game.” writes 1 "All of us on the CU who went In m position! 11 lay. felt that a mistake Many persons who saw agree with us and so, of millions of people who hi cd the still photol of th would point hut, howoi photographs are notorktil liable j in Judging cUm* , . plays.
