Twins Defeat White Sox On Allen's Hit UPI Sports Writer Remember Eddie Stanky, the modern Muggsy of Brooklyn’s “ferocious gentlemen?” “He can’t hit, he can’t field and he can’t run," they said of Stanky. “But in a tough game he’ll find away to beat you.” Well, they're saying pretty much the same things about another second baseman today—Bernie Allen of the Minnesota Twins. Allen is a skinny guy often overlooked among all those Minnesota muscle men, but he’s maintained his regular status despite a .164 batting average. “Don’t let that average fool you," comments manager Sam Mele, “or you’ll liable to be sorry.” The 24-year-old native of East Liverpool, Ohio, made his manager's words look good Tuesday night when the Twins beat the Chicago White Sox, 8-6, for their 16th victory in 20 games and moved to within 2% games of the American League lead. Bats In Ninth Allen went to the plate in the ninth inning with one out and Rich Rollins on second base. First base was open but White Sox relief ace Hoyt Wilhelm elected to pitch to the .146-hitter, who had made only seven singles in his previous 68 trips to the plate. But Allen crossed up the strategy with a double to right center field and then scored the icing run on a pinch single by Jimmy Hall. The win went to relief pitcher Bill Dailey, who gave up one run in 2 1-3 innings and now has allowed only that single tally in his last 19 1-3 frames. Zorro Versalles contributed four hits and Rollins, 'Earl Battey, Harmon Killebrew and Lennfe Green two each to the Twins’ 16hit attack while Tom McGraw had three hits for the White Sox. Indiana Beat Orioles The Cleveland Indians beat the Baltimore Orioles, 9-5, the Boston Red Sox topped the Detroit Tigers, 7-3, in 15 innings and the Kansas City Athletics defeated the Los Angeles Angels, 5-2, in other AL games. In the National League, the San Francisco Giants beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, 3-0, the Houston Colts beat the Chicago Cubs, 6-2, the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates, 3-1, the Philadelphia Phillies shaded the Milwaukee Braves, 8-7, and the Cincinnati Reds whipped the New York Mets, 8-3. Hit Four Homers Al Luplow, Fred Whitfield, Dick Howser and Willie Kirkland hit homers for the Indians, who scored their eighth victory in nine games. The Orioles protested the game when manager Birdie Tebbetts brought in relief pitcher Ted Abernathy before relief pitcher Bob Allen had completed pitching to one batter but the protest is expected to be rejected. Ji m Grant went 8 2-3 innings to win his fourth game for Cleveland. Dick (Smokey the Bear) Radatz struck out 11 and pitched shutout ball for 8 2-3 relief innings to win his fifth game for the Red Sox. The 6-6, 245-pound relief star has now pitched 31 consecutive shutout innings since May 12. Frank Malzone and Dick Stuart hit back-to-back homers in the 15th when the Red Sox poured over four runs. Gino Cimoli’s double and a tworun single by pinch-hitter George Alusik featured a four-run fourthinning rally by the Athletics. Diego Segui pitched a seven-hitter and struck out five to score his first victory of the season. International League Northern Division W L Pct.

Open By JOE SARGIS UPI Sports Writer NEW YORK (UPI) — This could be the last time around for old Sammy Snead in the U.S. Open golf championship. Sam has had his Open hopes buried more times than one of those movie cadavers and, at 51, he admits it's getting tougher all the time. But here he is back once again for a shot at the one golfing title that continually has eluded him. Snead, deadly serious and equally as accurate, carded a 69-71—140 at the Old Oaks and Century golf courses in Purchase, N.Y., Tuesday to qualify for the “big one” at Brookline, Mass., June 20-22. “God knows how bad I’ve wanted to win this tourney in all those other years,” Sam said in that homey West Virginia drawl of his. “It sure would be nice if I could make it this time, but I know it’ll be a grind with all those good young players around.” Only 11 players among the 129 who won Onen berths through a second qualifying round at 13 sites on Monday and Tuesday shot better golf than Snead. They were topped by a sparkling 69-64—133 by Dow Finsterwald at the Clovernook Country Club in Cincinnati. The veteran Fred Wampler of St. Louis had a 69-66—135 at the Indian Hills Country Club in Kansas City and Gardiner Dickinson, another tourney pro, had a 68-67 —135 at the Detroit Golf Club. Those were the top scores but most were turned in against mediocre qualifying fields, while Snead was shooting with some of the best pros on the tour at suburban Westchester, where golf’s elite are gathered for the star of the SIOO,OOO Thunderbird classic Thursday. As it was, unheralded Bob Schoener of Bethlehem, Pa., was tops in the New York field, where 45 players qualified, with a 69-70—139. Some of the game’s stars who failed to qualify at New York were former PGA champions Jim Ferrier and Jim Turnesa, Bob Toski, Jerry Steelsmith, Don Whitt, Bill Collins, Bo Wininger, Ken Venturi and George Knudson, while Lew Worsham failed at Pittsburgh, Jerry Barber missed out at Bakersfield, Calif., and Shelly Mayfield was a casualty at Fort Worth. Ed Furgol, shooting on his home course in Export, Pa., carded a 73-66—139 to share honors with fellow Pennsylvanian Schoener for Tuesday’s second-best scares. Major Leagues American League W L Pct.
