By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The San Francisco Giants fin
ally have squashed Milwaukee's
hex, hitting the law of averages
lor a double jackpot behind the hit
less relief pitching of Al Worth
ington. The Giants had lost eight in a
row to the Braves and Worthing
ton had beaten them only twice
in IS decisions before the big
righthander backed up his almost
perfect three-inning job on the
mound with a 12th-inning single
that led to a 3-2 victory last night.
That clipped the Braves' Nation
al League lead to seven games
over the Pittsburgh Pirates, who
rapped 18 hits and beat St. Louis
14-1. Cincinnati defeated Los An
geles 8-7 and the Chicago Cubs
beat Philadelphia 5-2 with Ernie
Banks pushing his major league
leading home run total to 42.
In the American League, Kan
fas City ripped pennant-bound
New York 11-7. The Chicago
White Sox defeated Washington 2-1,
Cleveland beat Baltimore 8-5 and
Detroit split a day-night double-
header at Boston, winning 7-2 after
a 3-2 defeat.
SF3, Braves 2
The Giants made it as Bob
Trowbride walked Orlando Cepe-
da on four pitches with the bases
loaded in the 12th, cracking a 2-2
tie that had stood since Joe Ad
cock had put the Braves' square
with a pinch home run in the
seventh.
Worthington ll-6) gave the
Braves nothing but a walk in his
three innings. He struck out three.
Stu Miller went nine, giving up
nine hits, three of them in the
first inning when Red Schoendienst,
Hank Aaron and Wes Covington
singled for a 1-0 Milwaukee lead.
Daryl Spencer's 15th home run,
after a walk to Cepeda,-- gave the
Giants the edge in the fourth
against starter Juan Pizarro.
Bucs 14, Cards 1
Dick Stuart, Bob Skinner and
Bob Porterfield homered in the
Pirates' 67th victory their best
total since winning 71 in 1949.
Porterfield was forced off the
mound by a knee injury in the
lourtn inning leaving the vic
tory to reliever Vern Law (10-11),
who pitched one-hit, shutout ball.
Skinner and Thomas, who doubled
with the bases loaded in a five-
run sixth, each drove in three runs
for the Bucs. Rookie Nels Chit-1
turn (0-1) lost it.
Reds 8, Bums 7
Pete Whisenant's pinch - hit
grand-slam home run, his first in
the majors, gave the Reds a 7-2
lead in the fifth inning and they
wrapped it up on a bases-loaded
walk by ex-mate Johnky Klipp
stein in the seventh. Joe Nuxhall
(11-9) won.it with relief help. Carl
Erskine (4-4) lost it in relief.
Cubs 5, Phils 2
The Cubs broke a 2-2 tie with
Banks' two-run shot in the sixth
off loser Curt Simmons (6-13), and
rookie Bob Anderson gained his
first major league victory with a
tour-hitter.

Tigers,
Red Sox
Split Two
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Gail Harris, squeezed out of a
job with the San Francisco Giants,
has become Detroit s No. 2 gun
ner now that the Tigers have
given him a home at first base.
In parts of three National
League seasons, the, 26-year-old
lefty hitter had batted only .228,
with 22 home runs and 68 runs
batted in. Now, after 104 games
in the American League, he s bat
ting .28a, leading the Tigers in
homers 14 and triples 7 and is
second only to Al Kaline in RBI's
with 61 just five less than his to
tal for 181 games with the Giants.
Yesterday he drove in six of
nine Tiger runs in a day-night
double-header split at Boston. He
had a two-run homer and a two-
run double as they won the night
cap 7-2, and singled home both
Detroit runs in a 3-2 afternoon de
feat.
Kansas City ripped New York
11-7, reducing the pennant-bound
Yankees' bulge to 11V4 games over
the White Sox, who won 2-1 at
Washington. Cleveland defeated
Baltimore 8-5.
Boston Divides
Tom Brewer (9-10) won his fourth
straight for Boston with a six-hit
ter in the opener, blanking the
Tigers on three hits after the first
inning. Jim Piersall drove in a
pair for the Red Sox, counting the
clincher with a sacrifice fly off
Jim Bunning (9-9).
Harris homered in the nightcap
first, then doubled in a four - run
fifth, when Charley Maxwell, who
drove in Detroit's other three, hit
a two-run homer off loser Ike De
lock (12-4). Paul Foytack (10-11)
won it. Gene Stephens, subbing
for the ailing Ted Williams, drove
in both Sox runs, one with a
homer.
A's 11, Yanks 7
The A's scored seven unearned
runs in the first off Johnny Kucks
'8-7), who gave up six hits after
Bobby Richardson's two-out error."
Tom Gorman (4-4) won it in re
lief for the A's, who tagged four
pitchers for 18 hits. Yogi Berra
hit his 20th homer his 10th con
secutive vear of 20 or more and
Mickey Mantle socked his 37th for
five Yankee runs. .
Gil Roesler, senior Army half
back, is also a hurdlec and high
jumper on the track team.
Berra Hits 20th
HR Level Again
NEW YORK (UPI) Chalk up
another milestone for Yogi Berra
10 straight years with 20 or
more home runs.
Berra unfurled No. 20 for this
season in the third inning of
Wednesday's game against the
Athletics with one man aboard.
Starting in 1949. when he hit
exactly 20, Yogi has hit at least
that number every year but,
oddly, nevermore than 30.

The rich event, carrying first
money of $6,400, has attracted
almost every name pro in North

ranking 33 money winners were
expected to tee off in the 72-hole

harness racing.
The three - year - old daughter
of Star's Pride first trotted the
fastest Hambletonian heat ever
by a filly, 2:00 1-5, and then
shook off the shock of banging
into a rival's sulky to come back
and win the 33rd Hambletonian,
harness racing's classic stake.
with a record speed of 1:59 4-5
in the third heat.
The win was not unexpected
since previously she boasted the
best time of the field for a mile
this year, 2:0O 2-5, and was an
even money co favorite to win
although no pari-mutuel betting
was allowed and only friendly
wagering occurred
But after her stellar first heat
performance, there came the op
portumty to show her heart. She
was moving well in the back
stretch, challenging last year's
two year - old champion. Sharp
shooter, for first place when her
loot whacked into the wheel on
Sharpshooter's sulky. She broke
stride and finished 12th in the 14-
horse field
Thus, when the field went off
in the third heat, she was in the
second tier. That's when the
heart, and the savvy of her
driver, 64-year-old Flick Nipe,
told the tale of the race.
He let the field settle down
and in the back stretch moved
her smartly into the middle of the
pack. When the way was clear
ahead, with 3-8 of a mile left,
Nipe moved Emily's Pride out
side and she took over.
Emily's Pride trotted the final
quarter in :30 1-5 to win by a
half length over another filly,
Sandalwood.
The victory paid Emily's Pride,
owned by Castleton and Walnut
Hall farms, Lexington, Ky., the
second biggest Hambletonian
purse in history, $62,750.
Little Kocky, owned by S. A.
