Yankees Whip White Sox Two To Lead League By CURT BLOCK UPI Sports Writer Baseball historians: Jot down June 21 as the day the Yankees climbed mtn first place and circle it for future reference. The defending American League champions, off to their slowest start in many a year under rookie manager Yogi Berra, are finally playing the brand of baseball Berra remembers from his playing days. And they’re doing it against their most formidable rivals, the Chicago White Sox. The White Sox have been absolutely pallid when confronted by the Yankee pinstripes. The futility of it all reached its climax Sunday when the Yanks' scored arf unearned run in the 17th inning of the American League’s longest game of the year to post a 2-1 over the Chisox after taking the opener of the doubleheader, 2-0, behind home runs by Mickey Mantle (13) and Elston Howard (6). New York and Chicago have met nine times thus far this season with Chicago winding up on the short end every time. But that doesn’t tell the whole story. Scored Few Times Hie nine contests have consumed 92 innings of baseball with Chicago scoring a total of 11 runs, an average of 120 per game. Hector Lopez started the Yankee rally in Sunday’s nightcap with a one out double, his fourth hit, and the Yankees only extra base hit out of 11 in the second game. Howard and Phil Linz moved him to third by drawing walks. Then winning pitcher Bill StafBanks, Matthews Are Kitty Winners The Banks and Matthews posted victories in Northwest Kitty league games this morning. The Banks scored five times in the first two innings and coasted to a 7-2 win over the Kalines. Hammond hit two home runs, while P. Des Jean, J. Mcßride, and Laurent hit one apiece. The Matthews scored once in the last inning to take a 4-3 decision from the Aarons. Schauss and Miller homered.

Lefty Al Dawning worked the - first 12 innings for the Yankees and fanned 13 batters. The sweep of the twin biM, the fifth for the Yankees this season, moved them eight percentage points ahead of Baltimore and into the league lead —the first time this year that •they’ve enjoyed that lofty position. The White Sox have lost 11 of their last 14 and are now in third place, 2>4 games out Other AL Action In other American League contests, Boston dropped Baltimore, 9-6; Detroit stopped Minnesota, 4-2; Los Angeles downed Cleveland, 4-1; and Washington took two from Kansas City, 13-2 and 5-2. In the National League, Jim Bunning became the Seventh major leaguer to hurl fl perfect game, humbling the Mets, 6-0, in the opener of a doubleheader. Philadelphia came back to take the finale, 8-2. Chicago won both ends of a twinbill from Pittsburgh, 2-1 and 7-2; Houston did the same to Milwaukee, 5-2 and 5-4; Los Angeles defeated Cincinnati in the first game of a <joubleheader, 4-2, then dropped the second game, 2-1; San Francisco won a single game, 7-3 over StLouis. Boston put four run innings back-to-back in the fifth and sixth innings as they eased the Orioles out of first place. First baseman Dick Stuart led the attack with four hits, including his 13th homer, and boosted his RBI total to 55, best in the league. Earl Wilson (7-2) was credited with the victory but needed help from Bill Monbouquette, who worked the final four frames. Steve Barber (34) suffered the setback. WinsNinth Detroit’s Dave Wickersham won his ninth against five losses, but failed to hurl a shutout when Tony Oliva belted his 13th homer of the year and the Twins’ 100th in the ninth inning. The Tigers scored all they needed when they tallied three times in the opening inning oh Bill Freehan’s double and George Thomas’ single. The Senators, battling to stay out of. the cellar, stroked 28 hits in their doubleheader, 16 for extra bases, en route to a double win over 10th place KC. Jim King went 4-for4 in the opener as Don Lock powered a pair o f two-run homers and chipped in with a bases-empty blow. Buster Narum and Al Koch were the winning pitchers. Los Angeles scored all four of its runs in the fifth inning, taking advantage of an error by Indian catcher John Romano on a rundown play. Bo Belinsky, who fanned nine, went 8 2-3 inings ad picked up his fifth win in eight decisions. Veteran outfielder Jimmy Piersail hit safely in his seventh consecutive game, collecting a double and two singles.
TffE DECATO PAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA
The "Bullpen" By Bob Shrataka PITCHERS continue to dominate the scene in the Little League, and to choose an outstanding pitching performance of the week, two righthanders and a lefthander must be named. NO less than three shutouts were thrown in the five games played last week. Rick Eloph kept the Senators unbeaten with a two-hit, 7-0 win over the Yankees on Tuesday, striking out four and not walking a batter. Lefty Gary Williams of the Tigers threw a three-hitter at the Indians Thursday, winning 4-0, and he struck out eight and didn’t walk a hitter. On the same evening, Ron Kuhnle of the White Sox shut out the Yankees on three hits,winning 3-0, and he too struck out eight and didn’t walk anyone. WHILE there were no real outstanding performances by the batters, Brett Lutes of the White Sox and Denny Shady of the Tigers had good weeks. Shady contributed four hits, including a double, in seven at bats, and scored twice, in a pair of Tiger victories. Lutes also collected four hits, including one double, in six trips, and he also scored twice. THE Senators continue to roll, and now have chalked up four wins in four tries, and have expanded their league lead to a game and a half over the White Sox and two games over the Red Sox and Indians. THE Little League appears to be a well-balanced circuit this season, and any team is capable of beating any of the other clubs on a given night. In last week’s five games, only the Senators and Tigers escaped without a loss. The Yanks are still winless, after four tries, but arfe due to break that string real soon, as the Tigers did last week, after three consecutive losses. THIS week’s schedule is carried in today’s Daily Democrat, but there will more than likely be same additions along the way as Old Mr. Rain continues to wash out contests. Two rainedout games were to have been played last Saturday, but once again showers fell and washed out the contests. PONY League President R. OWynn explained Saturday morning that Friday night’s contest that was halted in the sixth inning will be completed Monday, July 13, the next time the Cardinals and Monmouth get together. The game, halted after three batters and a run was in the last of the sixth inning for Monmouth, was stopped due to an approaching storm. LEAGUE officials and Worthman field supervisor Steve Brandenburg used very good judgment in stopping the contest, after hearing that severe Storm warnings were out. Stopping the contest immediately gave both players and fans time to get home before the storm struck. THE Decatur teams are having much more trouble than usual with the other four clubs in the county Pony League. The Braves own a 2-1 record, after the Cubs handed them their first loss of the season Friday night. The Cubs have beaten both Decatur teams but have lost to Monmouth and Geneva and now own a 3-2 mark. The Cardinals have split in a pair of contests but were trailing in the suspended game. TWO Pony Leaguers are cgt of the lineup with injuries. Second baseman Bobby Koos of the Cubs suffered a broken foot bone Wednesday night and Brave outfielder Ken Gause is out with an infection of the inner ear. Doug Halberstadt of the Cardinals is hobbled by a foot injury, also. Little League standings: W L Pct.

Running Hurls Perfect Game Against Mets The happiest baseball father on father’s Day was Jim Running but the proudest one was ex-major league pitcher Max Lanier. Bunning, the lanky 32-year-old righthander for the Philadelphia Phillies, received pkiacti|cial](y everything any dad could want after pitching a perfect game against the New York Mets Sunday on Father’s Day. He got a big kiss from his 12-year-old daughter, Barbara, oldest of his seven children, and a bear hug from his attractive blonde wife, Mary. Both were among the 32,026 fans who yelled themselves hoarse during a five-minute Standing ovation for him after he struck out pinchhitter John Stephenson for the final out of his masterpiece at Shea Stadium. That was Running’s 10th strikeout of the game and it nailed down a 6-0 first game victory, after which the Phillies also won the nightcap, 8-2, on a combined three-hitter by rookie Rick Wise and veteran Johnny Klippstein to widen their National League lead to two games. Just As Happy Proud as Bunning was over the second no-hitter of his major league career, he still had nothing on beaming Max Lanier, who once pitched for the St. Louis Cardinals and now manages in San Francisco’s farm system. The reason he was bursting with pride was because his 22-year-old son, Hal, a pea green rookie, rapped out four hits Sunday, including his first major league homer, to lead the Giants tfe a 7-3 victory over the Cardinals. Young Lanier, a second baseman brought up from Tacoma of the Pacific Coast League only last Thursday, pollected eight hits in 16 times up in his first National League series. No wonder his pop was proud. . Jack Sanford picked up his fifth victory for the Giants with help from Gaylord Perry in the sixth while Curt Simmons (7-6) was charged with the loss. Lanier homered to start the ninth ■and Willie Mays connected for 22nd homer later in the game inning. Lou Brock hom- - Wed for the Cards. Other NL Action Elsewhere in the National League, Houston vaulted to seventh place with a 5-2 and 54 sweep over Milwaukee, Chicago also took a pair from Pittsburgh, 2-1 and 7-2, and Los Angeles beat Cincinnati in the opener, 4-2, but lost the nightcap, 2-1. Bunning, who pitched tris first no-hitter against Boston while still with Detroit in 1958, became the first perfect game pitcher in modern National League history. Pitching in oppressive 91degree heat, Bunning was “saved” by a fifth inning diving stop turned in by second baseman Tony Taylor, who gloved Jesse Gonder’s hard smash to the right of second base and threw him out. Bunning helped himself with a two-run double off loser Tracy Stallard (4-9) during a four-run rally in the sixth while catcher Gus Triandos, who came to the Phils from the Tigers in the seme deal with Bunning, also drove in two runs with a
