Yankees On Top In Hot American Pennant Scrap NEW YORK (INS) — Casey Stengel had the hardest hitting tandem since Blanchard and Davis to thank today tor giving him back the American League lead which Chicago had the effrontery to grab during his Illness. Mickey Mantie and Yogi Berra, biggest homerun hitting combination in the league, put the NewYork Yankees ahead of the elass again Wednesday with ninth inning back to back roundtrippers' that sank Detroit, 3 »o 2. The Icfltly Baltimore Orioles paved the way by defeating the White Sox. 2 to 1. after getting clobbered. 14 to 1. in the first game of a doubleheader. Kings for a day by two percentage points, the White Sox fell behind by a half game, three points behind the Bombers. Cleveland remained a game behind in third byshutting out Boston. 2 to 0. The Red Sox loss swelled the deficit for fourth place Boston to ♦% lengths. The Yankees, who lost the lead the night before at Detroit while Casey stayed home with aystitis. almost gave the Bomber skipper a relapse upon his arrival as they trailed. 2 to 0, for seven innings on Al Kaline's 25th homer in the first. But then Steve Grornek weakened to yield a bunt to Andy Carey and singles to Bill Skrowron and Rank Bauer for one run in the eighth. And Mickey, the 23 year old centerfielder from Oklahoma, tied it with his 33rd while his 30 year old teammate from Louis won it for Bob Grim with his\22nd. Mickey’s blow topped by orfe the output with which Larry Doby won the homer title last year. With Kaline currently the closest contender. Mantie appears to be the first Yankee A. L. homerun king since Joe DiMaggio clouted 39 in IMS. Berra s homer was the '2o3rd of his eight year career and topped by one the lifetime total of hall of famer Bill Dickey, who needed 1? years to do it. Gabby Hartnett, who worked for 20 years,leads all catchers for lifetime homer hitting with 235. The White Sox went on their biggest rampage of tthe season in the first game with Baltimore, slamming out 20 hits good for 27 total bases. One of them was Bob Kennedy’s homerun. Billy Pierce and Connie Johnson combined to hold the Birds to eight hits. Bill Wight set the Sox down with nine hits, fanning eight and walking only two for his third win against five defeats.
