Scheme Backfires On Sam McDowell In Bout With Senators
Sam McDowell, feared Indians ace, failed to win a 20th game as Cleveland manager Alvin Dark’s plan backfired. Washington Senators beat the Indians 4-1 after McDowell walked Frank Howard three times. Howard scored on a wild pitch as infield hits and miscues aided the Senators. Dick Bosman limited Cleveland to four hits. Other AL games saw New York beat Baltimore 3-2, Detroit and Boston split, Oakland edging Chicago 2-1, California over Kansas City 3-1, and Minnesota rainout. Horace Clarke delivered a bases-loaded double for the Yankees. Campaneris added a triple for Oakland in the seventh.
