Marshall Bridges, the fourth Yankee pitcher who came on in the ninth, was the winner. Dean Chance, the Angels' fourth hurler, took the loss.

Palmer shot a course record 87 and a 69 on the last 38 holes to finish with a 72-hole total of 276. - (UPI) British Open Champ New York -(UPD British op en champion Arnold Palmer flew his private plane from Idlewild airport to his home in Lathrobe. Pa Saturday and before leaving said he will begin practice immedi ately for the Professional Golfers association tourna ment which opens next Thurs day in Philadelphia. Palmer and his pretty wife, Winnie, arrived Saturday aft ernoon on a Eritish Overseas Airways jetliner from Prest wick, Scotland, and described his record-breaking 72-hole score of 276 in the British op en as "an accumulation of four rounds which is as good as I have put together in a long, long time, if ever." Palmer said that he expects to arrive in Philadelphia ei ther Sunday or early Monday morning. "The switch from the small British ball to the larger American one always gives me trouble, so I'm going to get in as much practice as I can for the PGA," he said. "When you first hit the big ger ball after playing the lit tle one, you feel like you're hitting a pumpkin. And you have to ge used to putting it," he added. Palmer made no predictian of victory in the PGA and said that the "150 players" would be his chief competi tion. He described the old Troon course - site of the British open - as "one of the tough est I've ever played." But his impression of the fairway did not coincide with that of South Africa's Gary Player who said they were "like concrete." "Many of the fairways are narrow and hump-backed that is their high points are in the center - and it's some times hard to stay out of the rough," Palmer said. "But I think that the rains just before the tournament made them more fair and I think they would have been much rougher if we had had bad weather," he added. Palmer's sole criticism of the tournament was the un ruly crowds. "The crowds got complete ly out of hand as I approach ed the 18th green on the fin al round and I was stuck," he said. "I wasn't worried about myself, but there were a lot of women and children who could have been injured in the surge to the green. "I think they'll have to do a better job of roping to keep the people completely off the fairway," he added. Palmer said that he thought the turning point for him was his birdie two on the 210 yard fifth hole in third round when he rapped in a 10-foot putt while his partner and closest competitor, Australia's Kcl Nagle, took a four. This put him one stroke ahead of Nagle, Prior to this, Palmer had been ona stroke behind. National League Roundup Dodgers Lash Mets, Boost Lead to 2v2 i By United Preis International The Los Angeles Dodgers, running wild in an eight-run second inning and a six-run sixth inning, stretched their National league lead to 2'-j games Saturday by crushing the New York Mels, 17-3, un der a 16-hit barrage. A crowd of 37.2S3. lured in part by a Dodger - Giants "oldtiincrs" game preceding the regular game, saw the Dodgers come within two runs of the highest scoring game in the major leagues this year.

Ju lio Golay hit his first major league homer off loser Bob Shaw In the fifth inning. The Pittsburgh Pirates downed the Houston Colts for the seventh straight time, 4-2, behind the pitching of Vernon Law. who scattered eight hits in picking up his eichth vic tory of the campaign. The Pi-1 rales scored their winning run in the fifth inning on Bob Skinner's double and Dick Stuart's triple. Skinner also homered in the third frame.
