Nelson Fox Is Star As Chisox Defeat Tigers By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer Nelson Fox, who already owns eight major league records, will soon achieve another statistical goal that will place him among the greatest second basemen in baseball history. The combative little Chicago White Sox second baseman — who just might be the only fellow in the American League who hasn’t conceded to the New York Yankees — needs only three more hits to reach 2,500 for his career. That’s a total reached by only five second basemen — all hall of famers — Eddie Collins, Nap Lajoie, Frankie Frisch, Charlie Gehringer and Rogers Hornsby. Fox knocked in three runs with two singles and scored the White Sox’ fourth run of the game Thursday in a 4-3 victory over the Detroit Tigers. The win enabled the second-place White Sox to move within eight games of the Yankees, whose six-game winning streak was ended by a 5-0 loss to the Los Angeles Angels. The Cleveland Indians edged the Minnesota Twins, 3-2, the Kansas City Athletics defeated the Boston Red Sox, 2-o’, and the Baltimore Orioles downed the Washington Senators, 4-2, in other American League games. Fox, 35, singled home Mike Hershberger in the third inning and rode home on Dave Nicholson’s triple. He also singled home two more cups in the seventh inning to boost the White Sox into a 4-0 lead and provide the necessary cushion for two relief pitchers to preserve Joe Horlen’s fifth victory. Ken Mcßride pitched a threehitter to win his 12th game for the Angels, who tagged fireballdr Al Downing with his second loss. Downing paved the way for his own defeat with to walks in the first inning folloed by a double by Felix Torres and a tworun single by Ken Hunt Willie Kirkland’s three-run eighth-inning homer brought the Indians Jrom behind and provided

White Sox Os Little League Clinch Tie The league-leading White Soj clinched at least a tie for the Decatur Little League title, as they wrapped up their season with a 9-4 victory over the Red Sox Thursday evening. The Indians thumped the Senatods 10-5 in the nightcap, and remained one game behind the defending champs. The Indians have two games remaining to play, one of which is this evening with the Tigers, and must now win both contests to tie the White Sox with identical 12-3 records.

Archer picked up the win, his sixth of the season against only one defeat. The winners picked up a run in relief pitcher Gary Bell with his Jifth win. The Twins’ runs came as a result of a homer by Johnny Goryl in the third inning and an error, a sacrifice, a walk and a single by Jimmie Hall in the seventh. The Athletics completed a sweep of a four-game series with the Red Sox 'as Ed Rakow, Bill Fischer and John Wyatt collaborated in a six-hitter. Fischer, who pitched the middle six innings, won his ninth game while 13-game winner Bill Monbou. quette suffered his seventh loss for the Red Sox. Robin Roberts received credit for his eighth win of the season and the 252nd of his career by spacing eight hits* over eight innings before turning over the late-inning close-out relief to Stu Miller.

Willie Mays On Move, Too Late To Aid Giants By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer Willie Mays is on the move but even a .419 batting surge may be too little too lats for the San Francisco Giants. The SIOO,OOO centerfielder who had been bogged down close to toe .250 mark this season has made 13 hits in his last 31 at bats to boost his average to .281. The Giants have moved with him — six victories in their last 10 games — but that isn’t going to be enough to overtake the Los Angeles Dodgers unless they do an el foldo to end ’em all. The Giants ran their current winning streak to four games Thursday when they whipped the " New York Mets, 8-6, as Mays drove in four runs with a homer, double and single. Willie McCovey also weighed in with three.hits and knocked in two runs in San Francisco’s 12-hit attack. The loss was the 19th in a row on toe road for the Mets — equalling a 47-year old major league record for futility away from home. Ten Left On The Mets made 12 hits, including a run-producing single and a two-run homer by Duke Snider, but left 10 runners on base against the combined pitching of Billy Pierce, Bob Bolin and Billy Hoeft.
