His two-run homer in the sev enth inning of the opener off Don Drysdale snapped a 1-1 tie, and he and George Crowe con nected for homers in the second game off Ed Roebuck, making the first start of his three-year major league career after 96 relief appearances.

The Yankees won their game after trailing 4-0. With the score tied 4-4 in the eighth and the bases full. Hank Bauer tried to steal second.

Members of both teams came charging onto the field in the third inning when Ray Boone and Yankee starter Tom Sturdi fant engaged in a fist fight. Boone claimed Sturdivant had thrown at his head.
