Show 8 Daily Herald \ TUESDAY, APRIL 28, 1964 ih County, Ultah Frank Howard Swings Big Bat as Dodgers Post 6-O Win Over Colts eeeee By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer The Los Angeles Dodgers’ National League rivals can be pardoned for wondering if Frank Howard is swinging a telegraph pole instead of a bat. At 6 feet, 7 inches and 250 pounds, Howard tooks big enough to carry a team on his back. And, as a matterof fact, that’s just about what he’s been doing for the hitless-wonder Dodgers this season as far as their offense is concerned. Howard is batting only .265 but he’s hit six home runs and the 11 runs he’s driven in represent 29 per cent of all the runs the Dodgers have scored in 13 gamesthis year. The towering slugger, who recanted after announcing this spring that he intended to retire from baseball, and _firstbaseman Ron Fairly each had three hits and drove in two runs Mondaynight as the Dodgers beat the Houston Colts, 6-0. Drysdale Goes Route Don Drysdale went the route with a-six-hitter to make it two shutouts in a row for Los Angeles pitching and mark the first time this season the Dodgers have won two consecutive games. The Dodgers tagged Hal inning on two singles and the first of two doubles by Johnny Roseboro. They added two more in the fourth on Fairly’s two-run homer, another in the fifth on Willie Davis’ homer and two more in the eighth when Howardrocketed the ball over the left tield fence. Drysdale, who hadn’t won in three previous starts, walked two, struck out five and didn’t ond base. He yielded three of the Colts’ six hits to Bob Aspromonte and his five strikeouts raised his career total to 1,504. The victory was the easiest the Dodgers have scored this season (three of their four wins, incidentally, have been shutouts) and the six runs matched their second highest game total of the campaign. Brown for a run in the second allow a Colt runner past sec- They beat the Milwaukee Braves, 1-0, Sunday with Phil Ortega pitching a four-hitter. Wins First Game Les Narum, 23-year-old rookie obtained from the Baltimore - Orioles, scored his first major league victory as the Washington Senators defeated the Los Angeles Angels, 6-3, in Monday’s only other -big league game. | Narum yielded five hits and two runs in 6 1-3) innings before giving Way to Marshall Bridges who stopped the Senators on a run and two hits for the final 2 2-3 innings. Two-run singles by Mike Brumley and Don Zimmer in the fourth inning and a homer by Fred Valentine in the fifth inning paced the Senators’ sixhit attack. The loss was McBride’s third of the~ season against one victory.
