The Athletics, who disposed of Tommy Davis last summer, got their first dividend for picking him up again this spring when the former N. L. batting champion drove in two runs with a pinch-double in the ninth inning to defeat the Royals, 5-4. With one out, Dick Green singled and Steve Hovley walked. Bert Campaneris was retired, but Davis then batted for Bob Locker and came through with his winning two-bagger.
