Yankees Boost Lead Without Mantle, Maris By TIM MORIARTY UPI Sports Writer When Mickey Mantle suffered a broken bone in his left foot June 5, manager Ralph Houk of the New York Yankees insisted “we’re not going to lay down and die,” He uttered virtually the same words when Roger Maris, the other half of the Yankees’ dreaded “M & M” combo, was knocked out of action with a sore back nine days ago. Houk’s grammar may have been faulty but hot his logic. Mantle is back with the club but it may be a few more days before Houk writes his name on the lineup card. Yet during his absence the Yankees have won 27 of 41 games. With both Mantle and Maris missing during the past week, Houk’s men have won five of seven. So who’s dying? The Yankees increased their first place bulge in the American League to 6Vi games Sunday by taking a pair from the Kansas City Athletics, 11-6 and 5-0. Tied For Second The Boston Red Sox and the Chicago White Sox remained in a virtual tie for second by splitting twinbills. The Red Sox blanked the Los Angeles Angels, 5-0, after suffering a 10-8 setback and the White Sox pulled out a 3- victory after losing to the Baltimore Orioles, 6-3. The Minnesota Twins swept their doubleheader with the Cleveland Indians, 5-3 and 8-2, and the Detroit at Washington twinbill was rained out. In the National League, the Los Angeles Dodgers nipped the Philadelphia Phillies, 3-2, in a game shortened to six innings by rain; the Chicago Cubs beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 7-3, after a 10-3 loss; the Milwaukee Braves won 7-6, after losing to the Cincinnati Reds, 5-3, and the Houston Colts handed the New York Mets their 15th straight loss, 8-3. John Blanchard and Hector Lopez, filling in admirably for the “ M& M” boys, homered in the first game at Kansas City to help the Yankees wipe out a 4- deficit. Al Downing, who pitched a four-hit shutout, coasted to victory in the nightcap as Tom Tresh hit a pair of solo homers and Elston Howard knocked in three runs with a' single. a double and a homer. F Chet Nichols, with ninth-inning relief help from Dick Radatz, hurled a four-hitter for the Red Sox in picking up his first victory of the season. In the opener, the Angels converted seven walks into runs to offset a grand slam homer by Lou Clinton and a two-run blast by Carl Yastrzemski. „ The White Sox earned a split against Baltimore when Nellie Fox singled home two runs with two outs in the ninth o inning of the nightcap. The Orioles won the opener by routing Ray Herbert with a four-run burst in the third inning. Mike McCormick limited the White Sox to six hits before giving way to Stu Miller in the eighth. The Twins scored 11 runs on five homers in sweeping the Indians. Home runs by Earl Battey, Zoilo Versalles and Vic Power accounted for all of Minnesota's runs in the opener. Don Mincher greeted Barry Latman with a grand-slammer in the first inning of the nightcap and Harmoh Killebrew connected for his 20th homer with one aboard in the sixth.

"The Bullpen" By Bob Shrahika “ Hutker Schnepf AN Indian and a Tiger take honors this week, with Mike Schnepf being chosen as pitcher of thp week,” and Alan Hutker as “hitter of the week.” SCHNEPF was named for the first time this season for his performance Friday when he hurled the Indians to a thrilling 3-2 come-from-behind win over the White Sox, snapping the Sox 10-game win string and moving his club to within a game and a half of the league leaders. The righthander allowed the Sox only two hits and two runs, only one of which was earned, while striking out 11 and walking five. HUTKER undoubtedly set a pair of records this past ’week with some fabulous hitting. The Tiger star had 10 hits in three games — in only 10 times at bat! Against the Yankees Monday in a 13-1 Tiger win, Hutker had a home run, a double and a single in three trips, scoring twice. In a 7-2 loss to the White Sox Tuesday, he went three-for-three, with a double and a run scored, and Wednesday in a 12-7 win over the Senators he capped his week’s total with four singles in four trips, scoring four times. THOSE ten consecutive, hits is almost undoubtedly a record for the local Little League, and his total of ten hits during one week of play jnust also be a record. SUDDENLY we have a race. That thrilling Indian win over the White Sox Friday brought the Tribe to within one and one-half game of the league leaders, and they trail only one game 'in the loss column. As we enter the next-to-last week of play, the White Sox have three games to play and the Indians four. The Tigers are the only other team with a mathematical chance to tie -either of the two clubs for the championship. TOM “Hoss” Schultz of the White Sox continues to lead the home-run derby which is shattering all previous home run records for the league. Schultz has whacked five, while Schnepf, Ken Gause of the Red Sox, Rich Fisher of the White Sox and Jim Laurent of the Tigers have three apiece. Alan Bedwell of the Indians, Hutker, of the Tigers, Rick *Eloph of the Senators and Dave Jackson of the Tigers have thumped a pair each. Those with one each are Dan Pettibone and Jesse Mendez, Senators; Dave Wirfteregg and Rick Archer, White Sox; Mack Jones and Mike Curtin, Indians; and Tim Bolinger and Pat Kohne, Tigers. SOME 33 circuit blasts have been hit this season with two weeks to play, and the Whitp So* lead all clubs with 10. The Tigers have hit nine and the Indians seven. The Senators have whacked four and the Red Sox thfee, while the Yankees have yet to hit a homer. The 33 hit thus far have shattered all previous league records for home runs in a season.

THE county Pony League enters its final week of regular season play this week, with the season’s pivotal battle on tap this evening in the first of two games at Worthman Field. The Decatur Cubs, sitting on top with a 6-3 mark, will tangle with the runner-up Decatur Braves, who own a 5-4 mark. The contest is scheduled to start at 6 o’clock tonight. AT this writing tonight’s action was still on tap. Rain today, however, could curtail action and play havoc with the remainder of the schedule. The league's second annual post-season tournament is scheduled to open one Week from today. League officials attempt to play the tourney in the week and a half before Friday, July 26, when the General Electric goes on vacation and a number of players of each Decatur team leave town for two weeks. "Die Cardinals are defending regular season champions and the Cubs defending tourneychamps. 1 THE Fort Wayne Wildcat league has donated a brand new scoreboard for use of the local Wildcatters at the Northwest school diamond, and the public school system contributed the necessary materials for the new board.

Dodgers Take Seventh In Row To Boost Lead By FBED DOWN UPI Sports Writer The Los Angeles Dodgers are opening up such a huge lead that they may be able to let the New York Mets play out the last month of the schedule for them. ®lt’s been almost a decade--1955, to be exact — since an? National League team held a 6Vi-game first-place lead at this stage of the race and, lest it be forgotten, that was the year in which the Dodgers gave Brooklyn its one and only world championship. Apparently determined to avoid a repetition of the collapse that cost them the 1962 pennant, the Dodgers increased their 1963 lead to 6Vi games Sunday when they beat the Philadelphia Phillies, 3-2, in a game shortened' to six innings by rain. The victory was their seventh in a row and their 12th in their last 13 games. Johnny Podres continued the excellent pitching which has marked the Dodger drive with a seven-hitter for his eighth victory against six losses. Dodger pitchers have given up only eight runs in the seven-game winning streak and have allowed two runs or less in 12 of their last 18 games. McLish Was Loser Maury Wills’ triple and Jim Gilliam's sacrifice fly gave the Dodgers a run in the first inning and they added two more off loser Cal McLish in the fourth with the help of Ruben Amaro's error, plus singles by John Roseboro and Willie Davis. Home runs by Johnny Callison and Amaro produced the Phillies’ runs. The Chicago Cubs defeated the St. Louis Cardinals, 7-3, after a 10-3 loss, the Milwaukee Braves won, 7-6, after losing to the Cincinnati Reds, 5-3, and the Houston Colts scored an 8-3 win that extended the New York Mets' - losing streak to 15 games in other National League action. Im the American League, the New York Yankees beat Kansas City twice, 11-6 and 5-0, Minnesota took a pair from Cleveland, 8-2 and 5-3, the Boston Red Sox blariked the Los Angeles Angels, 5-0 after a 10-8 loss, and the Baltimore Orioles split with the Chicago White Sox, losing the second game, 3-2, after a 6-3 victory. The Det ro 1 t-Washington twinbill was rained out. The Cardinals unleased a 16hit attack, featuring homers by Ken Boyer and Bill White, to beat the Cubs behind the eighthit pitching of Ray Sadecki in their opener. Ex-Redbirds Larry Jackson and Lindy McDaniel combined in a nine-hitter in the Banks are 3-4 and the Kalines and Colavitos 2-5. Little League Standings W L Pct.
