DETROIT-The last place Phil-
adelphia Athletics, who hadn't won
in their last 10 starts, battered
the Detroit Tigers 9 to 1 yester-
day with an eight run barrage in
the 11th inning.
A small crowd of 3,583 saw
Rookie pinch hitter Lou Limmer
start the game winning rdIly with
a bases loaded double off losing
pitcher Dizzy Trout.
BFFORE relief pitcher Gene
Bearden could retire the side, Pete
Suder, Eddie Joost, and Dave Phil-
ley blasted home five more runs to
give the A's their second win
against 12 defeats.
Relief pitcher Hank Wyse who
replaced starter Carl Scheib in
the ninth, received credit for
the win, his first. The Tigers got
only six hits.
If it hadn't been for an eighth
inning error by Detroit center
fielder Johnny Groth, Trout would
have. gained the victory. Instead
he suffered his second loss.
Louis Favored
In Agramonte
Fight Toniht
DETROIT-(IP)-If Joe Louis
gobbles his Cuban opponent,
Omelio Agramonte, here tonight
in a fight-for-peanuts, the Inter-
national Boxing Club plans to
match the old, former heavyweight
champ in two summertime, big-
dough shows.
Nick Londes, IBC promoter, said
he hopes to pair off Louis and Lee
Savold in Briggs Stadium here in
June or July, and heavyweight king
Ezzard Charles outdoors in Sep-
tember, possibly in Chicago.
* 1 * *
JOE SAYS he is "dead serious"
about regaining the crown from
Charles, something he failed to do
last September after a series of
"comeback" bouts with the likes
of Agramonte. Charlek picked up
the crown by whipping Joe Walcott
in 1949 after Louis voluntarily
abandoned it.
The need for ready cash, which
Uncle Sam says Joe owes in a
bunch of income taxes, drove Joe
back to the ring. So naturally
he'll be thinking of Savold and
Charles and money, possibly
more than Agramonte, Wednes-
day night.
For one thing, Joe will be fight-
ing for a $6 top. For another,
there's a city-wide strike of bus
and streetcar operators.

GROTH misplayed a line drive
single off Scheib's bat. The ball
bounced out of his hands and roll-
ed almost to the center field wall
while Scheib circled the bases.
Detroit tied it up at 1-1 in the
ninth. Pinchhitter Charlie Kel-
ler walked and Neil Berry ran
for him.
Joe Ginsberg, whose two singles
led the Tigers at bat, punched a
hit into -right field. Pat Mullin,
who hit a pinch home run earlier
this season, batted for Johnny
Lipon and drove a long fly to right
to score Berry from third.
That run broke Detroit's string
of 18 scoreless innings over three
games. George Kell, Vic Wertz,
ang Jerry Priddy got Detroit's
other hits.

YANKS 8, CHISOX 3
CHICAGO-The Chicago White
Sox' first Negro player, Orestes
Minoso, made a gaudy start, but
the Pale Hose wilted before the
New York Yankee power, 8-3, in a
game spiced by three homers at
Comiskey Park yesterday.
In tailor-made dramatics be-
fore a shirt-sleeved throng of
14,776, third-sacker Minoso pol-
ed a 425-foot homer in the first
inning, driving across left field-
er Paul Lehner, who also made
his White Sox debut. Lehner
had bowed in with a single.
The Sox acquired Minoso from
the Cleveland Indians . and Leh-
ner from the Philadelphia Athlet-
ics in a three-club deal which ex-
tracted outfielders Gus Zernial and
Dave Philley from the Sox.

PHILS 6, REDS 5
PHILADELPHIA - Robin Rob-
erts survived a five-hit, five-run
eighth inning to chalk up his third
pitching victory of the season as
the Philadelphia Phillies nosed out
the Cincinnati Reds 6-5.
The big blow of the Reds' of-
fensive was Joe Adcock's third
homer of the season. It account-
ed for three runs. Before the
eighth-frame uprising, Roberts
had allowed only two hits and he
gave up another in the ninth.
Del Ennis paced the Phils' 12-
hit attack with three blows, in-
cluding a double, but home runs
by Granny Hamner and Dick Sis-
ler were more effective.

GIANTS 5, CUBS 3
NEW YORK-Alvin Dark's home
run with the bases full in the
sixth inning gave the New York
Giants a 5-3 victory over the Chi-
cago Cubs.
A crowd of 12,009 saw Jim Hearn
and Sheldon Jones pitch the
Giants to their second straight
triumph following 11 consecutive
setbacks.
Hearn started for the Giants
and posted his second victory of
the year, but worked only seven
innings. Jones was sent in to
finish up after Hearn showed
signs of tiring.

collected two singles to account
for three of the five Giant hits.

son, with a double apiece, got the
others.

major league crowd of the young
season.

for the big righthander. He held
the Bosox scoreless until the

sands who came to see Lou Bou-
dreau, the Indians' manager in
the previous nine seasons and
now Boston's shortstop.
The Tribe scored runs in pairs
in the first, third and fifth to get
Feller off to a 6-0 lead.
