Yankees Take 10th In Row From Chisox By JOE GERGEN UPI Sports Writer Although it’s a trifle early to start any series talk, that's exactly what the New York Yankees were doing today. it wasn’t the World Series, of cojirse, because that subject hasn’t been very popular with the Yankees since last October when they were whipped four straight in the fall classic by the Los Angeles Dodgers. But the Yankees, who Monday night slapped their- personal palsies — the Chicago White Sox —for the 10th straight time this season, have already swept the season’s series between the two teams in what must be considered one of the earliest ciinchings in baseball history. Actually, New York also confined its drive to what is generally expected to be another World Seriesappearance in 1964 with the 6-5 victory which boosted the defending American League champions a half-game in front of the idle Baltimore Orioles, whom they take on tonight in the opener of a threegame series. Lopez' Puzzled - A despondent Al Lopez, manager of the White Sox, could only shake his head and say, “we had one bad inning in the whole series and we lost all four games.” That bad inning oc cured Monday night when Frank Baumann, pitching in relief of starter John Buzhardt, was tagged for three runs and four hits in two-thirds of an inning. The fifth-inning rally cracked the game open and only a three-run flurry in the'ninth by Chicago made it close. Yogi Berra, the resident genius of the Yankees, philosophized, “that’s the way to get on top. Beat the contenders.” Berry should know because his team has scored more than a quarter of its 38 victories against the Chisox. The Angels defeated the Sen£B, 5-2, in the only .other srican League game, played .Xo # decision. The Twins-and .the Indians battled to a 10-inning 8-8 tie when rain halted the slugfest in the top of the 11th inning. NL Action Over in the National League, the Giants moved to within a game and a half of first place with a 6-2 victory over the Reds and the Dodgers overcame Milwaukee, 10-9, despite five Braves’ homers. Steve Hamilton received credit for the Yankee victory, his fifth win in five decisions, and also drove in a run with a single in the fifth. Hamilton allowed only two runs in the eighth innings he worked, but Chicago cuffed reliever Hal Reniff for three singles and a walk in the ninth before Bill Stafford squelched the threat. Roger Maris, Tom Tresh and Joe Pepitone each collected two hits and drove in a run to lead the 11-hit New York attack. The loss was the second for Baumann, both against the Yankees. Catcher Bob Rodgers drove irt two runs for the Angels, who ran their win streak to six, and scored the go-ahead run in the seventh on pinchhitter Willie Smith’s single. Bob Lee gained credit for his - third win although he pitched tq only two batters. Jim Hannan, who like Lee worked only one-third of

Willie Mays Tops National Stars In Vote NEW YORK (UPI) — Willie Mays of the San Francisco Giants was a near-unanimous choice and Ron Hunt became a New York Met of distinction today when the eight starters for the 1964 National League AllStar team were selected by a vote of their fellow players. Named along with the brilliant Giant center-fielder and the steady Met second baseman were catcher Joe Torre of the Milwaukee Braves, first baseman Orlando Cepeda of the Giants. shortstop Dick Groat and third baseman Ken Boyer of the St. Louis Cardinals, left fielder Billy Williams of the Chicago Cubs and right fielder Roberto Clemente of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The eight regulars, who must play the first three innings of the 35th All-Star game, scheduled for New York’s Shea Stadium on July 7, were selected by a vote of 270 National Leaguers, whose only restriction was that they could not vote for teammates. The American League leads, 17-16-1, in the series that was instituted in 1933 as an attraction for visitors to the Chicago World’s Fair.' Pitchers To Be Named The remainder of the American and National League tearps will be announced June 28 and 30, respectively, and the pitchers for both squads will be named on July 2. Rival rnanag- __ ers Walt Alston of the Nationals and Al Lopez of the Americans are expected to follow closely the voting pattern of the players in filling out their squads and to discuss pitching selections with other managers in their leagues. Mays was selected for the jAll-Star squad for the 11th time while Hunt and Torre were chosen for the first time. Williams, who led both leagues in batting with a .373 average, when the voting ended, played in the second 1962 game. Mays, hitting .359 with 22 home runs, was picked by 240 of the 241 players who could have chosen him — with one lonely dissenter casting his cen-ter-fielder vote for Curt Flood of the Cardinals. Williams, Torre Popular Williams was the second > most popular choice with 327 votes and Tonre, the Braves’ muscular catcher who was batting .317, ranked No. 3 with 203 votes. , . Hunt, Cepeda and Boyer each had 172 votes, Clemente had 160 and Groat had 92. The only really* close vote was at shortstop where Groat outpolled Leo Cardenas of the Cincinnati Reds, 92-87. Boyer, Groat and Mays are the only repeaters from the 1963 starting team. Second choices in the voting * were catcher John Edwards of the Reds, (24 votes), first baseman Bill White of the Cardi- ’ nails (75), second bageman Bill Mazeroski of the Pirates (52), i third baseman Ron Santo of the . Cubs (84), left fielder Willie Stargel •of the Pirates (17), Flood (17) and Hank Aaron of the Braves (67). New York Stock Exchange Price / MIDDAY PUCES I A.
