Hets' Hurler Beats Dodgers On Four Hits By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer New York’s $25 - million Shea Stadium may be a Taj Mahal to the Mets, but to National League pennant hopefuls it’s becoming a chamber of horrors. It may not be too long, in fact, before the cry is heard to bring back Ebbets Field — long regarded as the nut factory to end ’em . all. Only a week ago the pennanthungry San Francisco Giants descended on the stadium beautiful alongside fragrant Flushing Bay only to blow two straight games and eventually escape with a four - game split only after a record - setting 10hour doubleheader. .It was the Los Angeles Dodgers' turn Friday night when they roared into Shea Stadium on the wings of Sandy Koufax* third no - hitter the night before and with the usually conservative Walt Alston proclaiming that the great lefthander’s masterpiece was just the shot in the arm the stumbling world champions needed to get going. Hurls Four-Hitter “Shot” was the right word, all right, except that it was the Dodgers who were shot down by the four - hit pitching of Galen Cisco that produced an 8-0 Met victory before a crowd of 54,790. ' Cisco hadn’t pitched a complete - game victory in 21 consecutive starts but he breezed after a third inning in which the Mets scored seven unearned runs following an error by firstbaseman Ron Fairly. Homers by Ed Kranepool and Charlie Smith were the big blows as the Mets turned tigers and put the blitz to Joe Moeller. The San Francisco Giants defeated? the Philadelphia Phillies, 5-3,*. in 11 innings, the Cincinnati Reds nicked the St. Louis Cardinals, 5-4, the Chicago Cubs downed the Milwaukee Braves, 5-2, and the Pittsburgh Pirates scored a 4-3 victory over the Houston Colts in other NL action. In the American League, Chicago edged out Detroit, 4-3, Minnesota clubbed Baltimore, 11-5, Los Angeles shaded New York, 3-2, Washington topped Cleveland, 5-3, and Boston whipped Kansas City, 14-7., Win In 11th The Giants, winning their sixth extra - inning game in as many tries, pushed over two runs in the 11th with Harvey Kuenn singling home the “lead” run and scoring an insurance run on Chuck Hiller’s triple.

Wilhelm And MossiSfarln Relief Roles By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer The word around the American League is to beat the Chicago White Sox in seven innings or forget it. The seventh inning has been known as the “lucky seventh” for years but for 1964 opponents of the White Sox it’s the unlucky frame when star relief* pitchers Hoyt Wilhelm and Don Mossi make their appearances. Either one Is usually capable of quieting whatever disturbance is brewing but if one isn't equal to the task manager Al Lopez quickly signals to the bullpen and the other gameender appears. Some idea of how effective they’ve been is demonstrated by pitching statistics that show Wilhelm has relieved in 21 games and has a 1-50 earned run average while Mossi has appeared in 13 games and has a 2.65 ERA. Regain First Place The White Sox moved back into first place in the American League as a result of a 4-3 victory over the Detroit Tigers Friday night and once again it 1 was the star relief combination that wrapped up the win. First, Wilhelm quelled a seventh-in-ning Detroit rally and then Mossi came onto the scene in the ninth to retire Al Kaline with the winning run on base. Juan Pizarro, who singled home a run in the second inning and went 6 1-3 innings on the mound, received credit for his sixth victory against two losses. Hie win was the third straight for the White Sox while the loss was the sixth in a row for the Tigers. The Minnesota Twins knocked the Baltimore Orioles out of first place with an 11-5 triumph the Washington Senators beat the Cleveland Indians, 5-3, the Boston Red Sox outslugged the Kansas City Athletics, 14-7, and the Los Angeles Angels defeated the New York Yankees, 3-2, in other AL action. Twins Unleash Power Zoilo Versalles hit two homers, Jimmie Hall belted his 12th of the season and Rich Rollins and Bob Allison hit triples a the Twins unleashed a 13-hit attack that snapped the Orioles’ six-game winning streak. Lee Stange yielded nine hits, including homers by Brooks Robinson Jackie Brandt and Boog Powell, but went the distance for his second win. Buster Narum went seven innings to earn his fifth victory of the season with the relief help of Jim Duckworth as the Senators foiled Pedro Ramos’ bid to score the 100th win of his big league career. Bill Skowron had three hits and Jim King hit a two-run homer for the Senators while Vic Davalillo homered for the Indians. Dick Stuart’s grand slam homer featured a nine-run sec-ond-inning Red Sox rally that paved the way for Earl Wilson to win his fourth game. Lee Thomas, playing his first game for’ the Red Sox since being acquired from the Angels, horn ered while Ed Charles, George Alusik arid Rocky Colavito connected for the Athletics. Lou Clinton, appearing with the Angels for the first time since being obtained from Boston, tied the score with a tworun homer in the third inning and Jim Fregosi produced the winning run with a sacrifice fly in the sixth. Bo Belinsky received credit for his third win, aided by Bob Lee’s late-inning relief, while Ralph Terry suffered his fifth setback against one victory for the Yankees.

TonyLemaln Two-Shot lead In Thunderbird RYE, N. Y. (UPI) -Champagne Tony Lema wasn’t uncorking any bottles yet but he was raising a thirst as he catried a two- shot lead into the third round of the SIOO,OOO Thunderbird golf classic today. The tall ex - Marine, who celebrates all his victories with champagne, birdied the 17th hole and eagled the 18th with a 40 - foot chip shot into the cup Friday to grab the front spot in the chase for the $20,000 top prize with a five - under - par 67 and a 135 total. That jumped him two strokes in front of big Mike Souchak, the former Duke fullback, and slender Ken Venturi, who tied at 137 in the second round with respective scores of 68 and 70. Favored Arnold Palmer could do no better than a 71 for 139, four strokes behind Lema with single rounds remaining today and Sunday, while Jack Nicklaus shot a 69 for 142, seven shots behind. , Right on the heels of Souchak and Venturi at 138 came Paul Harney — who lost to Palmer in a sudden death playoff here last year — chunky Phil Rodgers, Aussie Kel Nagle, steady Billy Casper, Bobby Nichols and Jay Dolan. First round leader Jerry MaGee skidded to a 73 over the hilly acres of Westchester Country Club to fall back to 139, where he was stacked with Palmer, U. S. Open champion Julius Boros, Bob Goalby, Tommy Jacobs, pendulum putter Bob Duden and Dick Crawford, an assistant pro at the host club. Fifty players were under par 144 with big Bill Collins among those at 140; Tommy Bolt, Gene Littler and George Bayer at 141; and Nicklaus, Art Wall and Sam Snead, who shot 71, aH at 142. It required a score of 149 or better to survive the cut as the field was reduced from 125 to the low 90 and ties. This sent 96 players — with U. S. Amateur champion Deane Beman as tke lone amateur on a 75-73— 148 — into the third round after which the field again piU be cut to the low 60 and ties. Those who missed the cut and faded to the sidelines included such former tournament winners as Frank Beard, Don Fairfield, Bruce Devlin, Vi c Ghezzi, George Knud sori, Vred Hawkins and Rex Baxter.
