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.
With Don Larson pitching in the
loth, Jim Gilliam bounced a rou
tine grounder to Pagan, who then
threw wild again, allowing Gil
liam to go all the way to second

In the Mets-Cards nightcap, Car

Charley Neal's Uth Inning ly for
a two-base error. Chico Fernan

run.
The defeat cost the Cardinals a
chance to move within 34 games

Mets in the opener on a three-run
homer by pinch hitter Charlie
James in tire eighth inning. St.

Thus did Jose Pagan, the San

shortstop, sum up the three cr

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

heaves during the first nine
frames. Pagan uncorked another

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.

Playboy Angel Incarcerated
By Reassignment To Hawaii

NEW YORK (UPI)-Bo Bclin-

"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

it in only 14 happy hours and two
packs of cigarettes. I used to look
at all that red dirt and tell my
self if I kept this up I'd be a

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

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. Stock shut
out Cleveland on one hit over the
last three innings as teammate
Boor Powell broke a 1-all tie with
an eighth inning single off loser

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
