Bell re ceived a warning from plate umpire Lou Dimuro, which automatically calls for a S50 fine. Yank$ Win Two Regarding the fight the Yankees are paid to win, they took both ends of the double header by identical 3-1 scores. The sweep, engineered behind the fine pitching of Al Down ing and Stan Williams, boost ed New York into a 10-game lead over the second - place Chicago White Sox. In other American league contests, the Los Angeles An gels edged Baltimore, 3-2, in the second game of a twi-night doubleheader after the Ori oles had taken the opener, 7-4; the White Sox topped the Boston Red Sox, 7-1; the Washington Senators beat the Kansas City Athletics, 5-1; and in a day contest the Min nesota Twins routed the De troit Tigers, 12-1. The Los Angeles Dodgers extended their National league lead to 7' i games over St. Louis by nipping the Cardi nals, 2-1, in 16 innings; the Houston Colts tripped Cincin nati, 1-0; and in afternoon games Milwaukee defeated San Francisco, 6-2, and Pitts burgh edged Chicago, 7-6.

Riverside Phone 772-6157 Lynch Sets Pinch Home Run Mark By ED SAINSBURY UPI Sports Writer Chicago - lUPD - Pittsburgh's Jerry Lunch had no instruc tions to hit a home run to win i Pepitone had better luck with his bat than with his fists since it was his two-run double in the first inning of the nightcap that provided Williams with his winning margin. Tom Trcsh banged two doubles to figure in all the Yankee scoring in the opener. Steve Barber went only 5-is innings in the first game for Baltimore but still received credit for his 18th victory, top figure in the league. The Orioles broke the game open with six runs in the second inning. A seventh inning pinch-hit single by Bob Rodg crs drove in the winning Los Angeles run in the second con test: Rookie Gary Peters won his ninth straight game for the White Sox. He received ample ! support from Tom McCraw ! with four hits and Pete Ward, who had a home run. Don Lock and Don Zimmcr each blasted home runs and Ron Moellcr picked up his first win of the year for Wash ington although he needed re lief help from veteran Ed Roebuck.

"All Danny Murlaugh said to me 'Lynch, you're the hit ter'," Lynch said, describing the situation when he went to bat for pitcher Al McBcan to open the Pirates' ninth. "He didn't say anything like 'Hit a home run,' or 'Get on base,' or anything else."
