No Hit Hopes Mark Debuts Of Dillman Rohr
Baltimore rookie Bill Dillman pitched five hitless innings in a 7-1 Orioles win over Kansas City while Boston’s Bill Rohr fell one strike short of a no hitter against the Yankees, losing 3-0 as Elston Howard’s two-out single spoiled the bid. Rohr and Dillman, both 21, tied the major league debut theme with strong starts and 1-0 or 0-1 thrill, amid other AL action and early season scores.
