I Virtual Four Way Tie For i National Lead By United Press International Three is a crowd but four is ridiculous. So, three cheers for clairvoyant Warren Giles, who is right on the old bazoo with his pre-season prediction of "a real tight race” in the National League.Os course, good old Warren makes more or less the same prediction every year but that doesn’t alter the fact that he looks like a prophet today with a virtual four-way tic for first place in his circuit. Actually, the Los Angeles Dodgers are ahead by a whisker with a .566 percentage but identical .564 figures by the San Francisco Giants, St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs add up to an uncommon crowd at the top. Carl Warwick’s 10th inning single which gave Houston a 2-1 victory over San Francisco Friday night helped create the snarl when it knocked the Giants off the top rung for the first time since May 6. Warwick, an ex-Cardinal who has boosted his batting average 45 points during the past three weeks to its present .320, came through with his game-winning blow off loser Gaylor Perry after Colt rookie Rusty Staub’s ninth inning homer off Giant starter Bob Bolin had tied the score at 1-all. In other NL action, the New York Mets clipped the Cardinals 3- the Dodgers snapped the Cubs’ five-game winning streak 4- and the Milwaukee Braves beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 9-5. Rain washed out the game between Cincinnati and Philadelphia. Over in the American League, the Chicago White Sox defeated the Kansas City A’s 7-1, the Detroit Tigers downed the New York Yankes 8-4, the Minnesota Twins topped the Los Angeles Angels 6-1, and the Cleveland Indians spanked the Washington Senators 8-1. The Baltimore-Boston game was postponed by rain. Homer Beats Olivo Duke Snider’s three-run homer off reliever Diomedes Olivo in the ninth inning earned the Mets their come-from-behind victory after Cardinal starter Ron Taylor had limited them to two hits through the first eight innings. Don Drysdale cooled off the Cubs with a seven-hit performance that brought him his seventh victory of the year. Drysdale fanned nine in dealing the Cubs their third loss in the last 14 games. o Denis Menke’s eighth inning single broke a 5-5 tie between the Braves and Pirates and Hank Aaron’s 17th homer highlighted an insurance three-run rally by Milwaukee in the ninth.

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

Tigers Defeat Yanks, Aguirre Winning Hurler By United Press International Thpre’s a new game in the American League and it looks like anybody is eligible to play it. It’s called, “Get those Yankees while the getting is good.” The “getting is good” these days because Mickey Mantle is brooding with a broken bone in his left foot and the mighty world champions just don’t look the same without him. It was the Detroit Tigers’ turn to take a whack at the Mantleless Yankees Friday night and they made the most of it with an 8-4 victory that dealt New York its second straight loss and fifth in six games. Hank Aguirre, an old Yankee “killer” with or without Mantle, spaced out nine hits and Al Kaline hit a three-run homer to lead the Tiger attack. And, as if to show their scorn for the crippled champs, Detroit fans celebrated a double by Hank—his second big league hit—by showering Yankee right fielder Roger Maris with debris. Hikes Lifetime Record It was Aguirre’s second win in three decisions with the Yankees this year and raised his lifetime record against them to 7-4. The Tigers have beaten the Yankees five times in six meetings this season —despite the fact that they are 17-27 against the rest of the league. The Minnesota Twins defeated the Los Angeles Angels 6-1, the Chicago White Sox beat the Kansas City Athletics 7.1, and the Cleveland Indians whipped the Washington Senators 8-1 in other AL games. Boston at Baltimore was rained out. In the National League, the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Chicago Cubs 4-1, the Houston Colts shaded the San Francisco Giants 2-1, the Milwaukee Braves topped the Pittsburgh Pirates 9-5, and the New York Mets nipped the St. Louis Cardinals 3-2. Rain washed out the Cincinnati-Philadelphia game. Throws Five-Hitter Jim Kaat pitched a five-hitter 1 for the Twins, who scored their 16th victory in 20 games. Lenriie Green snapped a 1-1 tie with a two-run single in the seventh in- . ning as the Twins handed Dean Chance his fifth loss against five, victories. Juan Pizarro pitched an eighthitter and hit a two-run homer to raise his record to 5-2. Dave Wickersham, tagged for 10 hits and five runs in 7 1-3 innings, su-fered his fourth defeat compared with four wins. The Indians scored eight runs in the eighth inning, including three on a bunt on which Jim Duckworth and Jim King committed three throwing errors, to present Dick Donovan with his third win. The loss was Duckworth’s third against two triumphs. Major League Leaders By United Press International National League Player & Club G. AB R. H. Pct.

- Julius Boros Leads Buick By Two Strokes GRAND BLANC, Mich. (UPD— Poker-faced Julius Boros, using I an old putter in place of one that was stolen, credited it largely to-; day for the two-stroke lead he I curried into the second round of, the Buick Open golf championship. The burly 43-year-old Mid Pines, N.C., veteran, whose regular putter was stolen at the Masters in April, shot a six-under-par 66 Friday to lead runnerup Jerry Pittman of Tulsa, Okla., by two I strokes. “I guess it’s a pretty lucky I thing that I went back to my old j putter, grinned Boros, who canned putts of 16, 20, 25 feet and 35 feet twice for five of his i six birdies. Winner of the U.S. Open title, 11 years ago, Boros won his first tournament in three years three weeks ago when he finished first in the Colonial Invitation and since then has taken two seconds. He stands fourth on the year’s money-winning _Jist with $34,325 and quips, “Maybe I’m finally learning this game.” Pittman’s 68 had held up most of the day against a field of 159 competitors until Boros came in with his late after nnon round. Former US. Open champion Gene Littler was one shot back of Pittman with a 69 that tied him with Al Mengert and New Zealand’s Bob Charles, the only left-hander ever to win a major tournament on the pro tour. Tony Lerna, whose leading 67 on Thursday was sponged off the books by a thunderstorm, found the 7,280-yard Warwick Hills Golf Clubb course much tougher Friday when he carded a 71. - ■■—— ————- —j
