Yankees Boost Lead, Chisox Beaten Twice By MILTON RICHMAN DPI Sports Writer The Yankees’ magic number now is 11 and that adds up to a rather empty invitation Commissioner Ford Frick extended to the Twins and the White Sox. Frick invited both Wednesday, as well as the Yankees, to attend a meeting in Chicago next Monday for the purpose of discussing World Series arrangements. Can’t you just picture representatives of the Twins and White Sox standing around at that meeting twiddling their thumbs and trying to make themselves believe it’ll all be different next year? One thing is sure: They can forget about this year unless they plan a private squabble of their own for second place. But who ever remembers which team finished second by Christmas? The Yankees fattened their lead to 12 Vz games by. overcoming the «Senators, 5-4, Wednesday while the Twins took over second place with a 4-2 triumph over the Angels. Roger Maris’ two-run homer in the ninth inning —- his 20th of the season and first since July 6— gav€ the' Yankees their victory over the Senators. The White Sox dropped to third when the Athletics beat them twice, 4-2 and 7-3; the Tigers ripped the Red Sox, 6-1, and the Orioles edged past he Indians, 6-5. In the National League the Dodgers’ lead was reduced to five games when the Cubs knocked them over, 2-1, in 11 innings. The Cardinals clipped the Mets, 6-5, the Giants downed the Colts, 8-3, the Braves blanked the Pirates, 1-0, and the Phillies shaded the Reds, 3-2.
