White Sox Win Double Header From Detroit By CURT BLOCK UPI Sports Writer One of the mysteries of the American League pennant race has been how Al Lopez manages to keep his Chicago White Sox atop the league standings. Despite the absence of a consistent .300 hitter and the fact that their winningest pitcher has yet to go the distance, the White Sox climbed into first place Sunday with a double victory • over Detroit, 5-3 and 8-3. The merry month of May had Lopez ecstatic as his men jumped on rivals for 19 victories while being set down only seven times. During the off - season, Lopez dealt his second baseman for a decade, Nellie FwO to Houston and found himself on opening day without the services of his leading batter, Pete Ward. Ward injured his back in spring training and wasn’t in the regular lineup until May 10, but newcomers Tom McCraw, Al Weis and Don Buford have lifted the . White Sox to their lofty position. Gains Sole Possession Chicago gained sole possession of the top spot by a° half game in sweeping the fourgame Tiger series during the weekend while the Orioles took a three game set from the Angels. Ward’s fifth home run of the year sparked Sunday’s first game for the White Sox , as relief aces Don Mossi and Hoyt Wilhelm blanked Detroit over final four frames. Frank Kreut zer received his second win in as many decisions by pitching two- hit ball in middle inning relief. Wilhelm came on in the nightcap when 1963 rookie of the year and 19 - game winner Gary Peters tried and failed for the 10th time to produce a route - going performance. The i slim lefty was credited with his sixth win ggainst two lossI es for hurling six - hit ball over seven frames. Don Buford’s three - run homer and Bon Hansen’s tworun blast were the most potent punches in the White Sox attack. t Other AL Action In other AL action, Baltimore nipped Los Angeles, 2-1; Kansas City downed New York, 4-2; Boston edged Minnesota, 4-3; and Cleveland took two from Washington, 9-6 and 8-3. — Baltimore’s Steve Barber, hobbled with a bad back, registered his first victory of the year after winning 20 last season. Working seven frames, he gave up only three hits. Two singles, a Bo Belinsky balk and an infield out accounted for the winning run. The Angel suothpaw suffered his third loss to gp with two wins. Homer Wins Game Wayne Causey’s seventh inning home run, following two walks, gave the A’s their win over reliever Hal Reniff after the Yanks had taken a 2-1 lead in the top of the frame on Mickey Mantle’s two- ru n pinch single off John O’Donoghue.

two staunch competitors — popular veteran Eddie Sachs and rookie Dave MacDonald. They were killed in a homestretch inferno that also injured Bobby Unser and Ronnie Duman. And Parnelli Jones, last year’s winner, suffered burns when his car caught fire in the pits while being refueled. Some of the usual gaiety was missing Sunday night at the traditional victory dinner at which the Speedway paid out $506,625 — $153,650 of it to Foyt and his crew. Both were records.

ifications and race records smashed, paid the greatest compliment ■of all to the new champion from Texas by describing him as’ “the greatest” in the awards ceremonies. Racing personnel, meanwhile, argued the feasibility of using gasoline instead of exotic fuel blends for the “500” and other events sponsored by the U. S. Auto Club. There were demands, in some quarters, that the use of gasoline be banned in USAC races. Andy Granatelli, owner of the three - car Novi stable, flatly blamed the_ second - lap crash in full view of many thousands of horrified spectators on lightweight cars and “due to t,he fact these cars run on gasoline.” I “Gasoline is highly inflammable and explodes,” he said. “You can light it with a match. You can’t light menthanol with a match.” Two- time winner Rodger Ward, the runnerup who drove one of seven machines powered by Ford engines mounted in the rear, said his crew made changes “at my insistence” the night before the race so .he could use a fuel blend. More Dangerous The other six Ford - powered cars ran on gasoline which, under certain conditions, is more dangerous than blends, according to fuel expert Ray McMahon. But McMahon cautioned against any hasty decisions. “Regardless of type fuel Used, there would have been a fire,” he said. “It was that type of crash. Maybe they should make a more careful study of fuel tanks rather than rush into a ban on gasoline.” USAC officials said an investigation of the tragedy which knocked seven cars out of the race was underway. They also said .there is no rule specifically prohibiting the use of gasoline in auto racingThe fiery crash apparently was triggered when MacDonald tost control of his car coming out of the northwest turn, hit the inside wall, slid across the track and was hit at high speed by Sachs. Both cars burst into a sheet of flame with a dozen or more cars close behind. Other cars eliminated were those of Johnny Rutherford, Chuck Stevenson and Norm Hall. Preliminary reports indicated MacDonald’s right fuel tank ruptured on impact with the wall, spraying gasoline which exploded. His car had fuel tanks on both sides of the cockpitThe wreck blocked the track, forcing the race to be stopped. It was resumed 1 hour 45 minutes later—the first time this occurred as the result of an accident. Four drivers led five times. First it was pole-sitter Jimmy Clark of Scotland, then, Bobby Marshman, then Clark again, followed by Jones, then by Foyt. CJark led a total of only 14 laps. First he gave up the lead to Marshman, then to Jones when tire problems caused his chassis to fall -apart. Leak Halts Marshman An oil leak stopped Marshman for good after 33 laps and after he had run the fastest lap ever in the “500”—157.646 miles per hour. Jones was in front just seven laps before the pit fire eliminated him. That left 146 laps to go and Foyt forged in front unmolested the rest of the way in his conventional roadster. At the finish, he led Ward by a comfortable D 6 laps at an average speed of 147.350 mph — more than four miles faster than Jones last year. Ward’s was the only Fordpowered and rear-engine car running at the finish, although he made five pit stops, four for suel —an indication, perhaps, that the roadsters are not finished at the Speedway. Ward, Lloyd Ruby and Johnny White, rounding out the first four, all eclipsed Jones’ 1963 race record before an estimated 300,000 fans. White also earned “rookie of the year” honors. , Ward vvon $56,925, Ruby $35,650, White $20.700/ and fifth place Johnny Boyd $17,625. Jones was the center of controversies the past two years. In 1962 some car owners and drivers were critical because he was permitted to finish in seventh place after having lost his brakes. Last year’s rhubarb was because he was not blackflagged for throwing oil a few laps before the finish.
Giants Defeat Mets After 23 Inning Battle By JOE GERGEN UPI Sports Writer The New York Mets, their traditions of futility deeply enriched, have stood the test of time—and failed with flying colors. Despite their youthful appearance, the Mets, only in their third year of existence, have backed into the record book with the poise of veterans and turned baseball upside down. Sunday, the New Ybrkers participated in the longest game in major league annals, from the point of time elapsed—and lost. A crowd of 57,0337 at Shea Stadium—the largest in the majors this year—was on hand for the opener of the Mets-San Francisco Giants doubleheader at 1:05 p.m., »EDT. Less than a quarter of that total remained to see the “final out at 11:24, which proves that history isn’t a very attractive subject. Tie Score After losing the opener, 5-3, the Mets scored three runs in the seventh inning of the nightcap on Joe Christopher’s home run to tie the score at 6-6. And that’s the way it remained until the 23rd inning when Del Crandall’s ground-rule double drove in the winning run in the 8-6 victory. * , The 23-inning struggle fell three short of tying the- major league record of 26 set by the Dodgers and Braves in 1920. but the total playing time of seven hours and 23 minutes broke the seven-hours endurance mark set by the New York Yankees and the Detroit Tigers in 1962. It also was the longest game in major league history played to a decision since the Dodgers-Braves struggle ended in a 1-1 tie. But length wasn’t the only oddity of the game. New York shortstop Roy McMillan started a triple play in the 14th inning and Manager Alvin Dark of the Giants was ejected but not before protesting the game. Sets Strikeout Record In addition, 46 strikeouts were recorded in the doubleheader to surpass the old major league standard of 44 established by the Indians and Red Sox last year. Galen Cisco, the last of six Met pitchers, was charged with the defeat after pitching eight brilliant innings. With two out in the 23rd, Cisco was tagged for a triple by Jim Davenport. After Cap Peterson was intentionally passed, Crandall, batting for winning pitcher, Gaylord Perry, sliced his double into the right field corner. Jesus Alou then drove Peterson home from third with an infield single. In other National League games, Billy Williams homered in the 10th inning to give the Cubs a 4-3 win over the Braves; the Phillies overpowered the Colts, 4-1, the Dodgers defeated the Pirates, 6-4, and the Cardinals won the second game of a doubleheader, with the Reds, 2-1, after losing 'the opener, 6-0, In the American League, Chicago swept a pair from Detroit, 5-3 and 8-3, to remain in first place, Cleveland took two from Washington, 9-6 and 8-3, Kansas City stopped New York, 4-2, Baltimore edged Los Angeles, 2-1, and Boston downed Minnesota, 4-3. Williams Raises Average Williams’ home run, his 13th, was one of three hits for the day and raised the Chicago outfielder’s major league-leading batting average to .414. Billy Cowan had tied the score in the ninth with a two-out single. Dick Ellsworth was the winner— Rookie Richie Allen and Ruben Amaro crashed two-run homers for Philadelphia \ and Ed Roebuck saved Art Mahaffey’s fourth victory with 2 2-3 innings of scoreless relief. The win kept the Phillies in first place by a half-game. Ron Perranoski bailed, out Sandy Koufax in the eighth inning and preserved the Dodgers’ two-run lead for their third consecutive win over Pittsburgh. Los Angeles was aided by three Pirate errors as Bob Friend was Charged with the loss. Bob Gibson scattered" six hits and started the Cards’ winning rally with a single in the eighth as St. Louis won the second game. Bob Purkey gained his third victory in six decisions’ in the first game with a neat' sixhitter.

(UPI) —Gary Player complained he never hit a decent drive all day but victory, in the $70,000 Festival Open illustrated he regains one of the most feared swingers on golf’s gold dust trail. The former Masters champion’ from South Africa pocketed $12,000 Sunday when he finished the final round with a four-un-der-par 67 and a 72 - hole score of 27.jp 11 under regulation figures. That gave him a one-stroke victory over runnersup Doug Sanders and Art Wall and vaulted him from 14th to fourth place on this year’s money list with $29,000, trailing only Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Billy Casper, in that order. George Bayer, leader at the halfway mark and going into the final round, slipped to a one - under - par 70 for fourth place at 275. At 276 were Cliff Brown, Don Whitt and Casper, the 1962 winner. Nicklaus, with an even par 71, finished at 280 tied with eight others, including two-time winner Doug Ford. Attention all baseball fans! and Yankee lovers!
