The triumph enabled Cincin nati to break even with the Na tional League leaders in their four-game series at Crosley Field. The Reds are in third place 514 games behind Los Angeles and two games behind second-place San Francisco. And, even though all of man ager Fred Hutchinson's hopes were not realized, Hutch still managed a smile as his team left for Chicago. "We're alive," he said of the Reds' hopes to repeat as league champions. Robinson wasn't the only hero of the big game. The 28,852 fans also spent a lot of lung power cheering pitcher Bob Purkey (19 4) and third baseman Gene Kansas City Tops New York by 7-3 KANSAS CITV MV- Roger Maris slammed a three-run homer for the New York Yankees in the first inning Monday but their attack sputtered out after that and the Kansas City Athletics de feated the Yankees 7-3. The victory gave the Athletics the scries, three games to two. Monday's game was played before a crowd of 13,721, bringing the scries attendance to 1U1.7ZU, an all-time Kansas i;uy record. The Athletics started their rally against the Yankees in the fourth inning when they scored two runs. Bob Del Greco sin gled. With one out Jerry Lumpe hit a grounder to Bobby Rich ardson that bounced off his glove for an error. Norm Sie bem singled Del Greco home and Manny Jimncz drove Lumpe In with a sacrifice fly. Bill Bryan tripled home a run In the fifth and scored himself on a double by Del Greco. Ed Amerlran League W I.

"My best hit of the season," Frccse said afterwards with a grin. It was also the second for the right-handed power hitter who hit 26 home runs last year, broke his ankle in spring train ing this year and returned to the active list only last week. Robinson reached over to tap his shoulder and say, "Nice go ing, Gene!" "Yeah, but I would have liked that grand slammer you hit in the 10th inning, Frecse re plied. While the grand slam would have brightened up Frcese's record considerably, he didn't do badly with two hits in four times at bat. On his first 19(i2 trip to the plate, last week, he drew a walk.

That grand slam was my third this season and fourth I ve hit. "I really think the Reds will go on from here. We have the spirit and the will." Robinson's mighty blast came after pinch-hitter Jerry Lynch opened with a single and went to second ,on Leo Cardenas' bunt on which both hands were safe. Marty Kcough forced Car denas and then the Dodgers, after a pitchers mound confer ence, elected to have the right handed pitcher Larry Sherry walk Vada Pinson to get to Robinson, who swings from the right. The strategy backfired. Prior to Frcese's tying hit, the Dodgers had gone into a 3-1 lead in the sixth when Wil lie and Tommy Davis hit back-to-back home runs off Purkey. Freese's tying hit came after Robinson had singled and gone to second on a sacrifice. Earlier, Frccse, despite his still ailing ankle, had legged it all the way home from first on a double by Don Zimmcr. Stan Williams was the starter for the Dodgers and was fol lowed by Ron Perranoski and then Sherry on the mound. The Reds got their opening run in the first when Cardenas led off with a double and final ly scored after an infield out and Pinson's sacrifice fly. That stood up until the fourth when a single by Wally Moon and Duke Snider's double pro duced the tying tally and set the stage for the Davis home runs in the sixth.

Dl 5-3305 MILWAUKEE on Milwaukee southpaw Warren Spahn fig ures he has licked the most serious arm trouble of his bril liant career and most observ ers, especially the San Francisco Giants, readily agree. The 41-year-old Spahn, side lined for 10 days after aggravat ing his elbow, returned to ac tion and fired a six-hitter Mon day night as the Braves thumped the staggering Giants 94 to capture a four-game se ries 3-1. "The arm stiffened up on me a little between innings, but it was all right," Spahn said. "The big secret is that I know how to take care of it now. I aggra vated the elbow in Houston by warming up too fast. Now I just take my time, both warm ing up before the game and before an inning." In going the distance for the 15th time and boosting his rec ord to 13-11, Spahn survived a San Francisco homer barrage. Orlando Ccpeda belted his 25th and 26lh, while Felipe Alou hit his 19th and Harvey huenn his 7th. "Have to please the fans who come out to see the long ball. you know," Spahn said jokingly. 'Those long ones don't hurt so much, though, when they come with the bases empty." Spahn now has won five straight to boast his National League victory total to 322. The Braves backed Spahn with a 15-hit attack which in cluded homers by Lou Johnson, his first in the major leagues, and rookie Tommie Aaron, his sixth. Ken Aspromonte, filling in for ailing third baseman Ed die Mathews, and Frank Boiling each had three safeties. The Giants remained 3 '4 games behind Los Angeles as the league -leading Dodgers dropped a 7-3 decision to Cin cinnati. Manager Alvin Dark has set a goal of 105 victories to win the National League pen nant. That means the Giants must win 27 of their final 37 games a rugged task.
