' By MILTON RICIIMAN UI'I Sports Writer Three biittcrfingcred ballplay ers sure messed up the National League race on Sunday. The culprits were shortstop Jose Pagan of the San Francisco CI anU and outfielder Duke Carmcl and pitcher Bob Gibson of the St. Louis Cardinals, but before climbing all over them or nig gosling they sell their gloves, bo . advised they ordinarily do a fino job on defense. Not Sunday, though. Pagan committed three errors . and his last one in the 10th in' ning enabled the second-place Los , Angeles Dodgers to beat the first : place Giants, 4-3, and slice their league lead to two games. Carmcl and Gibson each made er.ors during the 1 1th inning of a nightcap against the New York Mets, helping Casey Stengel's crew snap a seven-game losing streak and defeat tire third-place Cardinals for the first time this ' season, 3-2. The Cards won the opener, 7-4. Bad All Around It was a miserable day all around (or Pagan, who went hit- less at the plate, set up one . Dodger run with a wild throw In . the fourth inning and let in the tying run with another bad peg In the seventh.

In the Mets-Cards nightcap, Car mcl, who had replaced left-field er Stan Musial in the 10th, muffed Charley Neal's Uth Inning ly for a two-base error. Chico Fernan dez then bunted toward the mound and Gibson fired wildly past first base for another two-base error that scored Neal with the winning run. The defeat cost the Cardinals a chance to move within 34 games of first place after they beat the Mets in the opener on a three-run homer by pinch hitter Charlie James in tire eighth inning. St. Louis bombed four of five Met pitchers for 16 hits, including five by Ken Boycr and four by Bill White. Phils Win Pair In other National League games the Philadelphia Phillies swept a twin-bill from the Cincinnati Reds 10-4 and 34: the Pittsburgh Pi rates defeated the Milwaukee Braves, 5-2, in 11 innings, and the Chicago Cubs downed the Houston Colts, 5-1. Ray Culp, a 21 year-old bonus rookie pitcher who received S100,- 000 for signing, and 36-ycar-old veteran Roy Sicvers, who was giv-j Jose Pagan Boots Three As LA Whips Giants 4-3 SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) -"A bad day.. .a bad day." Thus did Jose Pagan, the San Francisco Giants, usually reliable shortstop, sum up the three cr ros he committed Sunday to help the Los Angeles Dodgers pull out a 4-3 victory in 10 innings. My arm doesnt hurt, the sturdy little Puerto Rican added. 'But I wasn't picking the ball up right to make the throws." After committing two wild heaves during the first nine frames. Pagan uncorked another in the 10th on a routine grounder hit by Jim Gilliam. The latter sped to second base on the miscuc then scored on Tommy Davis single to center. All told, Davis drove in three runs. He had batted a pair across in the fourth inning with a hard double that rolled to the left ccn Icr field fence. Two Game Lead The Giants, who defeated Los Angeles 6-2 Saturday, now lead the Dodgers by two games a: both teams head for the Midwest Juan Marichal of the Giants is slated to open against Jim O'Toolc Tuesday night at Cincinnati while Sandy Knufax squares off against Milwaukee s Bob Hendley. Both West Coast clubs are idle today. Don Drysdale, now 8-4, went the route for Los Angeles yesterday while manager Alvin Dark of the Giants used four hurlers.

Fans Twelve Culp struck out 12 baiters and set down the Reds on three hits in recording his fifth victory in the nightcap while Sicvers dehv cred a pinch grand slam homer in the eighth inning to clinch the opener. The grand slam was the loth of Sicvers' career, trying him with Cleveland's Joe Adcock for top spot among the active players. Joey Jay sulfered his eighth loss against one victory in the second game. Bob Bailey's three-run homer off loser Frank Funk in the 11th inning powered the Pirates to their victory over the Braves aft er Bill Mazcroski's ninth Inning homer had tied the score at 2-all Al McBean, fourth of five Pirate pitchers, was credited with his fifth victory. Bob Clcmente also homered for Pittsburgh. Home runs by Ron Santo and Ken Hubbs paced the Cubs to vic tory over the Colts. Santo's sixth homer in the fifth inning with one man on sent loser Dick Droit to the showers and Hubbs belted his fourth homer in the seventh off Don McMahon. Bob Buhl allowed eight hits in recording his third victory and first since April 28. 0-2 after he had taken over in the eighth inning and retired the side with the bases loaded by fanning pinchhitter Frank Howard on three pitches. A crowd of 41,868, the largest it Candlestick Park this season, watched Jim Davenport open the Giants' first inning with a home run and then pick up three more hits, including a double before Drysdale made him ground out in the loth to end the game. Alou Hits 10th Felipe Alou's tenth circuit smash of the year, a liner that skipped over Uie lop of the left field fence, gave the Giants a 2-2 tie in the fourth after Davis had iclubhed his two-run double. Then a sacrifice fly by Tom Mailer boosted the Giants into a 3-2 lead in the sixth but Los An geles tied the game In the seventh when John Roseboro, who had doubled, scored on Pagan's throw ing error. The play was something of a mess. With Roseboro on second, pinchhitter Lee Walls hit back to relief pitcher Gaylord Perry who had come to the rescue of starter Jack Sanford. Perry threw Uie ball to second base instead of third. Pagan grab bed the loss and fired it past Davenport at third in a vain at tempt to nail Roseboro who went all the way. Drysdale gave up eight hits but didn't allow a score after the sixth frame and retired the last nine men to face him.

' Sport Parade: Playboy Angel Incarcerated By Reassignment To Hawaii By OSCAR FRALEY UPI Sports Writer NEW YORK (UPI)-Bo Bclin- sky, the playboy Angel with the "Joisey accent, was incarcerat cd today in what has to be re garded as baseball s nicest dog house. The Los Angeles Angels, dis turbed over his 1-7 record this season, picked Saturday night long noted as swing time to op tion him to their Hawaii farm club on 24-hour recall. It seemed particularly fitting considering the left-handed pitcher's penchant for pleasant living. Just as soon as this left-hand er plays the way he can," said manager Bill Rigney, "he'll be back with our club." Whether Bo will want to come back is something else again, al though in all truthfulness he prob ably would prefer the Hollywood lights even to the Hawaiian moon. Which, actually, is a nice thing1 to have to make a choice about The site of his exile is, of course, a cut above some of the other minor league localities through which Bo wandered be- Softball Meet Set Prospective coaches of Pee- Wee Softball teams are asked to attend a special organization meeting tonight at 7:30 p.m. at the Klamath Auditorium.

'You ever ride a bus with a minor league team?" he said after being assigned to Paradise on the Pacific. "It's 640 miles from Little Rock to Macon.

Bo almost blew his chance with the Angels prior to last season when he held out against signing for the $6,000 a year major league; minimum salary. But when they threatened to tear up the con tract, Bo grabbed the pen. He wowed them at first but only, it is believed, because he hadn't yet started finding his way around town.

Jumps From Convertible By June things were humming It was going on four a.m. one morning when a young lady leaped screaming from Bo s red convertible with a gash over her eye. As it developed, she merely bumped her head. There were no charges. But Bo was fined $250 and or dered to "curtail" his outside ac tivitics. By September, in a season where Bo had a 10-11 mark and led the league by giving up 122 bases on balls, it leaked out that Bo was to be traded to Kansas Citv. Commissioner Ford Frick voided the trade as a "secret' deal. Bo's off-field antics were kept to a minimum this season, one in which, incidentally, he became engaged to actress Mamie Van Doren.

By MILTON RICIIMAN UPI Sports Writer The league-leading Baltimore Orioles call Wes Stock "the AU American out" and that ap plies not only to his abysmal hit ting but also to his incredible pitching. As a hitter. Stock is strictly an out man and a formidable threat to Hank Aguirre's title as the worst in the American League. Stock still is looking for his first major league hit even though this is his fifth season with the Orioles. As a relief pitcher, the 29- year-old right-hander also is an out man, but of a completely dif ferent variety. He won both ends of a double- header in Sunday's 104 and 6-1 sweep over the Cleveland Indians and ran his season record to 5-0 as the Orioles increased their league lead to 24 games by win ning their seventh and eighth straight games. Remarkable Form Stock, who went nearly two full years without a defeat before Boston finally beat him last June 21, displayed the same remark able form Sunday that enabled him to go unscored upon in 40 of, his 53 relief appearances last season. In the opener he hurled two hit- less innings end struck out two of the four Cleveland batters he faced after the Indians had hit starter Steve Barber for nine hits and six runs in 3 1-3 innings. Summoned from the bullpen again in the nightcap.

Senators Win One ' Elsewhere in the American cir cuit, the Washington Senators won their first game under new man ager Gil Hodges and ended an eight-game losing streak with a 7-6 nightcap victory after the New York Yankees won their sixth in a row, 7-1, in the opener. The Detroit Tigers beat the Bos ton Red Sox, 12-3, in the first ol two, but dropped the nightcap, 6-5; the Minnesota Twins made it seven in a row with a 5-2 de cision over the Chicago White Sox, and the Los Angeles Angels beat the Kansas City A's, 6-4. Errors Hurt Yanks Errors by Bobby Richardson and Clete Boycr in the seventh in ning of the nightcap enabled the Senators to score what was to be the winning run against the Yankees. Rookie Jim Duckworth held the Yanks to two runs on six hits over the last six innings to gam his first major league win. Jim Bouton posted his sixth vic tory with a seven-hitter in the opener as Elston Howard and Mickey Mantle tagged loser Don Rudolph for home runs. Although rapped for two homers by Russ Nixon and one by Gary Geiger,. Jim Bunning registered his second victory for the Tigers with an eight-hitter in the open er. Bunning struck out 10 bat ters and was aided by Al Ka line's two-run homer and a three run blast by Dick McAuliffe. Eighth-inning homers by Ed Bres soud and Geiger powered the Red Sox to victory in the second game. The Twins also employed home run muscle to beat the White Sox. Zoilo Vcrsallcs, Harmon Kille brew and Earl Battey each con nected as Jim Perry scored his third victory with help from BUI Dailey in the eighth. Jim Fregosi and Billy Moran each singled home two runs in the sixth inning to break a 2-all tie between the Angels and the Athletics. DOWNTOWN OFFICE SPACE Inquire At GUN STORE 714 Main ly YOU odae
