Vg MONDAY, JULY 2. 1962 anks Split But Gain Lead In American League Chase MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sportt Writer Remember the "nickel World Scries?" Well, in the old days, before all those franchise changes, the league-leading Giants and Yankees would seem to be headed for one. Bui they're 3,000 miles apart now and if they do go on to win all it wiil cost you is $159.61 (tax included) to got from one ball park to the other. Don't feel so depressed, though. It still could be an all- Los Angeles scries. The Dodgers and Angels are right up there, and if they ever land in the World Series to gether they'll play in the same park. A lot of good that docs all you baseball fans in Punxsu tawney. Pa. Actually, it's still anybody's race in both leagues. If you don't believe it, take a look at the leaders: New York . .

The White Sox swept two Horn the Indians, 5-4 and 7-6, while the Twins checked a four - game back slide with a 9-0 decision over the Senators. Detroit moved into lifth place with a 3-2 win over Baltimore, and Kansas City beat Boston, 9-5. The Ginnls held on to Hie top spot in the NL with a 5-4 victory over the Phillies while the Dodgers stayed close by beating the Mcts, 5-1.

Winner Art Fowler drove in four runs with sin gles in the eighth and ninth. Leon Wagner hit his 22nd homer in the opener and his 23rd in the nightcap. Camilo Carreon's bases loaded triple with two out in the ninth enabled the White Sox to come from behind in the first game and the second game was just as much of a nightmare for the Indians, who have lost five in a row and 10 of their last 15. The White Sox clinched the nightcap with six runs in the fifth inning, four of the runs being unearned when Green dropped two fly balls. Turk Lown and Juan Pizarro were the winning pitchers.

Hit Coleman No-Hitter By Koufax Saturday By PAUL CORCORAN Los Angeles - ilTh - Sandy Koufax, a deceptively quiet young man only two years this side of despair over his baseball future, today figured to profit handsomely from his tirst no-hit, no-run game - a triumph that "has to be my greatest thrill." But the brilliant left-hander from. Brooklyn already was setting his sights on new goals - including his first season with 20 victories and a pos sible now strikeout record. Koufax now is 11-4, and has whiffed 183 men against his own National league record of 269. Koufax was expected to sit down today with E. J. (Buz zie) Bavasi, Dodger vice pros idenl and general manager, to tear up his existing contract so the club can "do sojnclhing for Sandy" - as Buuie put it. League rules prohibit across-the-board bonus payments. Tms is the greatest thing that has happened to an in dividual Dodger since the team came West," Bavari en thused Sunday. On Saturday Koufax shook up the baseball world with a 13-strikeout no- hits hitter as the Dodgers beat the 10 , Second New York Mets. 5 0. j Koufax never permilied a 'n "le second same Medford runner beyond first base and K"t 1U runs in the second in. Bob Woldt in the ninth In ning with the run that gave the Klamath Falls Hawks a 13 to 12 nod over the Cokes at Klamath Falls. It was the first victory in five division counting games for the Hawks and Medford second loss in six. Medford came back to thump the Hawks 20 to 3 in the second fracas of the dou bleheadcr but the contest had no bearing on the standings. The Cokes still cling to the driver's seat in the Legion league. But, they play the second place Klamath Falls ralcons on Tuesday evening at 7:30 o'clock at Memorial field, White Cily. And, the Falcons (3-2) can take over the lead by licking the Med- lord nine. Extra Innings The counter at KF vester- nay was billed for seven in nings. the clubs went into the frame knotted at 9 to 9. Each shoved across a tally to send piay into extra session. lucoiord made it 12 to 10 with markers in the top of ine ninin on two walks, an error and Mike Neathamer's single. In the bottom of the frame, Woldt tripled after two bases on balls. That tied the mix again and Gray's one baser won it. Medford's run in the sev enth was on a hit by Tom Barker, sacrifices by ' Bob King and Dan Miles and a single by Dick Defflcy. For the KF marker Marv Yunck tripled and there was an er ror on Jim Streak's squeeze. Each team had a four-run in ning. Woldt and Gray led a IS- hit attack with four for five each. The Cokes whacked 13 safe blows with Miles swat ting three for five and Def flcy, Neathamer, Ron Phinns and Barker each getting two pitched to only 30 batters walking five men. ning on doubles by Detfley, ieauiamcr and Gary Miller, a single by Ron Edmonds, three walks, a hit batter, an error and a fielder's option.
