Not since the war years when many of the established stars were in khaki and blue have there been so many rookies still on major league rosters beyond the first month's cut-down date - a whopping 20 per cent of the total number of players in the two leagues. Expansion, no doubt, has had a lot to do with it, but the caliber of the newcomers this season is surprisingly high. A breakdown of the two leagues shows 50 rookies in the AL, which expanded a year ago, and 47 in the NL, which added two new clubs this season. There were no major league games played Monday, but in exhibitions the New York Yankees beat the Pitts burgh Pirates, 4-3; the Chi cago Cubs defeated the Chi cago White Sox, 2-1; and the Washington Senators beat the Cincinnati Reds, 5-4, in 13 innings. , Belinsky, an eccentric left hander who had a so-so 9-10 record at Little Rock in 1961, has won all five of his major league starts, including a no hit, no-run game against the Baltimore Orioles on May S, DUDEN SHOOTS 69 Astoria - (UPI) - Bob Duden, newly-crowned Oregon Open champion, shot a 69 Monday for low honors in the OPGA monthly pro-am sweepstakes.
