It will take a little longer for the Dodgers. But only a mir acle can save the pennant hopes of the Minneapolis Twins and San Francisco Giants now. The Yankees' magic nunv ber to clinch the American League pennant is one-and they have two chances to make it tonight.

The Dodgers' magic number in the National League is four -and it could go down to two tonight if the Dodgers defeat the Houston Colts and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Giants. Both front-runners play all their remaining games at home. The New York Mets, who can't stay out of the news even when they want to, can add another record in reverse to their first year history by losing tonight to Warren Spahn and the Milwaukee Braves. The next Met loss will be their 117th-setting a new NL record and equalling the major league record of 117 losses in a season set by the 1916 Philadelphia Athletics. The Mets are an even better bet than the Yankees. The Yankees have five chances to win one. The Mets have seven chances to lose one. Norm Siebern increased his season runs-batted-in total to 113 by knocking in two with a homer and a single as the Kansas City Athletics downed the Baltimore Orioles, 5-2, in Monday's only major league action. The loss dropped the Orioles into a sixth-place tie with the Indians. SPORTS Kansas City . 000 301 0103 6 0 Baltimore . 000 011 0002 3 1 RaKow (14-16) and Bryan. Fish er, Hoeft (4), Luebke 16).

End Aaron Thomas, Formerly of OSU,' Traded To NY Giants San Francisco -lUPIl-The San Francisco Forty Niners have sorely needed speedster in their offensive backfield to day with the acquisition of Bobby Gaiters from the New York Giants in exchange for end Aaron Thomas. Gaiters was the top rookie for the Giants last season and was their number one draft choice the previous winter. He gained 94 yards in 13 carries against the Forty Niners in an exhibition game this sea son, but has carried the ball only seven times for 35 yards in two league games. Thomas, a 6-fool-3, 208 pounder from Oregon State, caught 15 passes for 301 yards and scored two touchdowns last year. He was used sparing ly in San Francisco's 45-24 loss to Detroit last week. Stengel, Lopez Are Rehired By United Press International Casey Stengel and Al Lopez will be back at their old stands in 1963, but first they're go ing shopping for new talent. Trades were the first thing each talked about Monday when Stengel agreed to man age the New York Mets an other season and Lopez signed a two-year contract with the Chicago White Sox. "I'll be back next year if my health is good and right now it's good," said Stengei. "And from now on, we're in the trading business and the buying business to get some players who can move us up." "We plan to make trades especially to acquire a power hitting cleanup man," said Lo pez. "The pitching staff is the strong point of this club."
