Exhibition baseball finally made its way back to major
league ball yards yesterday with the Kansas City Athletics
making themselves right at home with a four-run rally in
the last of the ninth that beat Brooklyn’s Dodgers 5-4.
The game drew 8,531 fans, 34-degree temperature and
a light snow.
A single by Irv Noren, late of the New York Yankees,
brought home the winning runs for the A’s in a hectic ninth
for Dodger right-hander Don Bessent. Three singles loaded
the bases with one out and Brooklyn ahead 4-1.
Gus Zernial singled for two runs and the tying run then
came home when Bessent threw wildly on a roller by Johnny
Groth. Noren’s clincher fol
lowed.
Vic Power, the A’s first
baseman, was knocked out
and carried off the field on a
stretcher in the fifth inning when
hit on the head by an attempted
double play throw by Dodger
shortstop Don Zimmer. It was the
same sort of accident that benched
Philadelphia’s Willie Jones for a
few days recently.
In other day games, Richmond
rallied with two runs in the ninth
to defeat the world champion
New York Yankees 6-5; Jack
Sanford and Angelo Lipetri held
Boston to four hits as Phila
delphia defeated the Red Sox
7-1; the Pittsburgh Pirates
walloped the Detroit Tigers
10-2; the St. Louis Cardinals
whacked southpaw Billy Pierce
to whip the Chicago White Sox
5-0, and the Chicago Cubs out
lasted Baltimore 7-6. Cold
weather canceled Milwaukee’s
game against Wichita at Wichita.
The Yankees had home runs by
Mickey Mantle and Hank Bauer
while coming from behind to give
Tom Sturdivant a 5-4 lead going
into the ninth. But the champs’
farm club, which rapped Sturdivant
for four runs on homers by Gordy
Windhorn and Harry Chiti in the
first inning, tied it on a walk and

two singles, one by Chiti, and then
bagged it all on a pinch single
by Neal Watlington. Sturdivant
gave just four hits until the ninth.
Sanford went the first seven in
nings for the Phils and gave up
only Ted Williams’ home run and
a single by Gene Mauch. The
Phils tagged Boston starter Tom
Brewer for four unearned runs.
And Rip Repulski rapped a two-
run homer off reliever Russ Kem-
merer.
A three-run homer by Paul
Smith and a two-run poke by
Dale Long got the job done for
the Pirates, who smacked rookie
righthander Don Lee for eight
hits in the first five innings.
Charlie Maxwell homered with a
man on for the Tigers against
Dick Hall.
The Cards also used a pair of
home runs in touching Pierce for
seven hits and three runs in seven
frames. Stan Musial and Hobie
Landrith supplied the power.
The two-home-run bit paid off
for the Cubs, too, with the help
of two rally-killing doubleplays.
Dee Fondy hit both homers, good
for four runs.
The Orioles, who lost the spring
series to the Cubs 10-8, got some
thing good out of the day, however,
with word that out fielder Bob
Nieman had suffered only a bruised
shoulder-not a possible fracture-
in a tumble during Wednesday’s
game.
Milwaukee learned, however,
that catcher Del Rice would be out
for from 10 days to two weeks
with a fractured right thumb, in
jured Wednesday.
Don Lee, a pitcher in the De
troit Tiger organization, is the son
of Thornton Lee, former star hurl-
er for the Chicago White Sox.

Who rates what for performance
and smoother riding in the low-
priced three? Chevrolet has laid
the answer and the proof on
the line!
First, Chevrolet won the Auto
Decathlon over every car in its
field, and over the higher priced
cars that were tested, too. This
rugged ten-way test (right, below)
showed Chevrolet was the champ
in handling ease, braking, acceler
ation, passing ability, smooth
ness of ride and other driving
qualities you want in a car.
Then, Chevy won the Pure
Oil Performance Trophy at
Daytona {left, below) as “best
performing U. S. automobile.”
It’s quite a feeling to know
that you are driving a car that
performs so well, responds so
beautifully and is so finely built.
You feel proud, of course. But
you also enjoy a surer, smoother,
steadier way of going, a keen
cat-quick response of power, and
the easiest handling you’ve ever
experienced behind a wheel. Just
try this Chevrolet (V8 or Six)
and see!
Chevy showed it's still the champ...
at Daytona... and in the Decathlon!
