American League
Still Has Race;
Angels Tip Yanks
By FRED DOWN
UPI Sporti Writer
There's still a race in the
'American league thanks to a
Los Angeles Angel victory
that is valued conservatively
at S250.000.
Yep, it means that much to
head off a New York Yankee
runaway.
And that's just what the
lighting Angels did Thursday
when they salvaged the third
game of their series with a
5-4, 13-inning triumph over
the Yankees. A Yankee vic
tory would have ended the
American league race for all
practical purposes. Today
there's still hope in Los An
geles and Minnesota - al
though the Angels trail by
five games and the Twins by
six - and where there's hope
there are cash-paying custom
ers. The "money game" - for
the Angels and the league -was
one which would have
tried the nerves of a saint -if
not an Angel.
Took Early Lead
The Yankees breezed to a
4-0 lead in the first two in
nings behind 18-game winner
Ralph Terry. It looked like
the same old story - a sudden
Yankee push crushing their
opposition in the big series.
But the Angels bounced back,
tying the game at 4-4 with the
aid of two homers by Billy
Moran and finally winning it
in the 13th on Lee Thomas'
single, a sacrifice and George
Thomas' double. The Yankees
. had loaded the bases in the
12th with none out but Dan
Osinski pitched his way out
of the jam.
Los Angeles' victory was
''the saver" because the Min
nesota Twins blew a double
header to the Washington
Senators, 6-4 and 6-0, and
dropped six games behind the
Yankees. There's hope in
Minnesota . . . faint and dy
ing . . . but still there because
of the Angels.
The Detroit Tigers downed
the Cleveland Indians, 8-5. and
the Boston Red Sox beat the
Kansas City Athletics. 8-2, in
other AL action.
Dodgers Topped Phillies
In the National league, the
Los Angeles Dodgers topped
the Philadelphia Phillies, 4-2,
the San Francisco Giants shad
ed the New York Mcts, 2-1,
the Cincinnati Reds routed
the Chicago Cubs, 14-3. the
Milwaukee Braves edged the
.si. Louis Cardinals, 3-2, and
'the Pittsburgh Pirates white
' washed the Houston Colts.
4-0.
Tom Tresh's three-run hom
er was the big blow of the
Yankees' early attack on Dean
Chance who nevertheless.
went eight innings before giv
ing way to Osinski. Bill Staf
ford, who took over for the
Yankees in the 12th, suffered
nis eigntn loss acainst m
. wins.
Ken Retzcr's two-run sixth
' inning homer enabled the
Senators to beat the Twins in
their opener and then Don
Rudolph pitched a six-hitter
"in the nightcap to complete
.the sweep. Bennie Daniels
pitched hitless ball for five
innings to win his fifth game
;in the opener. Bob Johnson
and Chuck Hinton homered
In the second game for the
Senators.
Kaline Led Tigerj
Al Kaline hit two homers, a
double and a single, drove in
two runs and scored four times
to lead a 13-hit Tiger attack
that brought Hank Aguirrc his
13th win. Norm Cash and
Chico Fernandez also homer
ed for the Tigers, who dealt
Jim Grant his sixth defeat.
Gene Conley pitched a six
hitler and struck out five to
win his 12th game for the
Red Sox. Conley, Eddie Bres
soud, Lu Clinton, Pete Run
nels and Russ Nixnn had two
hits each for the Red Sox.
Dan Pfistcr. routed in four
innings, suffered his 11th loss
for the Athletics.
The Dodgers retained their
V i game NL lead as Maury
Wills singled home the tying
run. stole a base and scored
the lead run in a four-run Los
Angeles eighth - inning rally.
Johnny Podres went seven
innings to square his season
record at 10-10 while Dennis
Bennett suffered his eighth
loss against five victories.
Marichal Won 16th
Ernie Bowman drove in
both the Giants' runs with a
fifth-inning homer and a 10th
inning single to give Juan
Marichal his 16th triumph. Al
Jackson, one of the Mcts'
hard -luck pitchers, suffered
