Aaron Is Key In Climb Os Braves To Top (United Press Sports Writer) The Milwaukee Braves get great pitching from just about anybody Fred Haney calls on, but it’s Hank Aaron who gives them their day-to-day "punch.” Qnly 22 years old, the slender Aaron has developed into the "solid man” of the team. Joe Adcock, Ed Mathews and Johnny Logan break out in rashes Os hits at times but Aaron keeps driving toward what he believes will be his first National League batting title. Aaron has been belting the ball at a .455 clip this month. In the last 21 games he has lifted his average from .293 to a league-lead-ing .337-mark. Hank was at it again Friday night when the Braves drubbed the Philadelphia Phillies, ’lO-6, behind Bob Buhl’s two-hitter. Hank smashed a two-run homer and collected two other hits to drive in a total of four runs in pacing the Braves to their 10th win in 11 games. Toby Atwell, purchased from Miami earlier this week, also hit a two-run homer in his first at-bat for the Braves to make it easy for Buhl to register his fourth straight victory and 12th of the season. The Redlegs remained two games behind the Braves when Smoky Burgess' two-run 12th inning homer gave them a 6-4 decision over the Pittsburgh Pirates and their sixth win in seven games. The Pirates took an early 4-0 lead but Ted Kluszewski hit his 24th homer of the year with two aboard in the fifth and Wally Post hammered out his 17th roundtripper in the seventh to tie the score. Johnny Klippstpin won his eighth game. Don Newcombe became the first National League pitcher to win 13 games when he scattered five hits in hurling the Brooklyn Dodgers to a 4-1 win over the St. Louis Cardinals. Shortstop Pee Wee Reese led the Dodgers’ 10-hit attack with three singles and a homer to bring his career hit-total to 1,999. Ted Williams,’ Stan Musial, Mickey Vernon and Enos Slaughter are the only active players with 2,000 hits. Monte Irvin hit two homers against hl»-former teammates as the Chicago Cubs beat the lastplace New York Giants, 7-4, in the other NL game. Jim Brosnan picked up his third win although he needed help from Jim Davis. In the American League, the New York Yankees stretched their first-place lead to 11 games with a 6-2 verdict over the Kansas City Athletics. Bill Skowron’s two-run single sparked a four-run fifth inning rally that enabled Whitey Ford to coast to his 12th win. Ford tied an American League record when he struck out six consecutive batters between the second and fourth innings. It was the Yankees’ 10th win in 12 games with Kansas City. Charley Maxwell and Frank House had three hits each in leading the Detroit Tigers to a 9-6 win over the Boston Red Sox in the other AL game. Virgil Trucks was credited with his fourth Victory behind the 15-hit Detroit attack on five pitchers.
