Indians Lose to Chisox, 3-1; Mele. Sain Take Two From Boston

By GEORGE C. LANGFORD E PI Sports Writer An injury to pitching ace Camilo Pascual has made gamblers of Minnesota Manager Sam Mela and pitching Coach Johnny Sain. The Twins were tied with Cleveland for the American League lead before their daynight doubleheader with Boston Monday. Mele and Sain decided to start a relief pitcher who hadn't started a game in more than a year and a 20-year-old rookie who had never pitched a complete game in the majors. Mele, Sain and the Twins hit the jackpot as Minnesota swept a doubleheader from Boston 6-2 and 2-0 and emerged with a l 1 /* game lead over the Indians. Jim Perry, a reliever making his first start since early last season, shutout the Red Sox on seven hits and struck out eight in the night game. Boswell, a spot starter for the Twins, fanned 10 Red Sox and yielded only six hits over innings to win the day contest. Indians Lose ! . Meanwhile, the Indians lost ’ to the Chicago White Sox 3-1, | New York whipped Detroit 7-2 » before losing the nightcap 5-4, i Baltimore tripped Kansas City J 7-4 and Los Angeles upended . Washington 5-2 in the first game 1 then lost the nightcap 4-3 to . complete AL action. { In the National League. Cin- • cinnati took over first place by

ers 7-4, Houston edged Milwaukee 5-4, Philadelphia swept a doubleheader from Pittsburgh 3-1 and 6-2. St. Louis overcame San Francisco 3-2 in 12 innings and the New York Mets toppled the Chicago Cubs twice, 3-2 and 3-0. Pascual has been able to pitch only six innings in the last 15 days for the Twins because of a pulled back muscle and the loss of the 15-game winner of last ' year has forced Minnesota to i call on such as Boswell, Perry and Bill Pleis as startera Win In Fourth The Twins won the night game in the fourth inning when Bob Allison singled, stole second and streaked home when catcher Mike Ryan threw wildi ly into centerfield. Boswell ali lowed homers to Tony Horton and Lee Thomas before being relieved by A1 Worthington in the ninth but the Twins raked three Red Sox pitchers for 14 hits including two doubles each by Allison and Jimmie Hall and Harmon Killebrew’s two - run double. The White Sox trailing 1-0 tallied the tying and winning runs in the seventh inning with the aid of a three-base throwing error by losing pitcher Sam McDowell on Ron Hansen’s sacrifice bunt. The error followed a single by Moose Skowran and allowed Skowran to score all the i way from first. Floyd Robinson; singled in Hansen. Bob Locker pitched one inning, striking out

the side, to gain the victory. Robin Roberts limited the A’s to four hits and one unearned run while striking out seven in 7% innings of relief work to gain his first win since May 6 and end a personal seven game losing streak. Boog Powell doubled and singled to drive in three runs for Baltimore and Dick Brown cracked a home run and a double to lead the Orioles attack. Rollie Sheldon (3-3) was the loser.

I Plagued with Errors

Dodger s Errors Prove Costly

: By GEORGE C. LANGFORD UPI Sports Writer The single most important • factor that many baseball exi perts argue caused the downfall | of the Dodgers in 1964 — and | that manager Walt Alston i thought was cured — is hauntiing Los Angeles again. * The Dodgers have survived a j multitude of injuries to key i players and an anemic offense, ) but today they were out of first ^place in the National League for the first time in two months because of their shoddy defense. Alston's butterfingered crew finished eighth In fielding last season when the Dodgers tumbled from world champs to share sixth place. This year they were the best fielding team in the league until they hit a disastrous streak which began nine days ago. Los Angeles has lost six of its last nine games and the winning run in four of those defeats was unearned by the opposition. The Dodgers coughed up four unearned tallies in one of the other losses. Errors Prove Costly Cincinnati took advantage of two Dodger throwing errors in the seventh inning Monday night to score three runs and take over first place in the NL with a 7-4 triumph over Los Angeles. The defeat dropped the Dodgers two percentage points behind the Reds. Philadelphia swept a doubleheader from Pittsburgh 3-1 and 6-2, St. Louis topped San Francisco 3-2 in 12 innings, Houston edged Milwaukee 5-4 and the New York Mets defeated the Chicago Cubs twice. 3-2 and 3-0

in other NL action. Minnesota increased its American League lead to 1% games by drubbing Boston twice 6-2 and 2-0, New York beat Detroit 7-2 then lost 5-4, Chicago edged Cleveland 3-1, Baltimore beat Kansas City 7-4 and Los Angeles beat Washington 5-2 In ths opener before losing 4-3. The Dodgers have given away nine unearned runs and committed eight errors in their last six setbacks. A single by Leo Cardenas, one of his three hits, began the decisive rally for the Reds. Winner Jim Maloney followed with a sacrifice bunt and when losing Dodger pitcher Bob Miller threw late to second, the Reds had two on. Breaks Deadlock Tommy Harper also bunted and when Miller threw wildly past third, Cardenas scored the winning run, breaking a 4-4 tie. Pete Rose's sacrifice fly scored Maloney and Harper tallied when centerfielder Willie Davis threw wildly into the infield. Lou Johnson homered and starting pitcher Nick Willhite drove in three runs with a basesloaded double to account for the Dodger scoring. Jim Banning fanned 10 and yielded only five hits in the Phillies opening game triumph. Ruben Amaro singled in a run and Alex Johnson homered for another in the Phillies attack off loser Bob Veale. Dick Stuart hit his 15th homer in the nightcap and Ed Roebuck and Gary Wagner blanked the Pirates in relief as the Phils beat Wilbur Wood. Richie Allen, the Phils third baseman and co-leader in the

batting race with Willie Mays, was booed continuously through the game by the Philadelphia f fans. He was involved in a fight with Frank Thomas Saturday, and Thomas later was placed on irrevocable waivers by the Phils. Swoboda Homers Twice Rookie Ron Swoboda belted his 14th and 15th home runs, driving in all but one of the Mets tallies in the doubleheader sweep of the Cubs, Swoboda's first-game homer with two on, foiled Dick Ellsworth's bid for his eighth consecutive win. Ellsworth and reliever Lindy McDaniel did not allow' a Met runner to reach base after the first inning. Tom Parsons shut out the Cubs wrtth six hits in the nightcap for his first victory as a starting pitcher, Larry Bearnarth was the winner in relief of Warren Spahn In the opener. Curt Flood singled in Phil Gagliano with the winning run in the 12th inning for St. Louis off loser Ron Herbel. Willie McCovey hit his 18th homer in the fourth for the Giants. Nelson Briles, the last of a trio of Cardinal relievers who blanked the Giants over the last four innings, was the winner. The triumph was the sixth straight for St. Louis. Walt Bond's perfect squeeze bunt scored Joe Gaines with the winning run in the ninth inning to deal the Braves their 13th loss in the last 17 games. The Braves had rallied from a four run deficit to tie the score in the eighth on home runs by Joe Torre and Hank Aaron. Jim Owens was the winner and Bob Sadowski absorbed the loss.

Nothing under the summer sun is more refreshingly cool than a crisp, chilled wedge of ripe watermelon. Watermelon is so good chilled and served "as is" that most people are content to enjoy it this way. Yet there are many interesting ways to use watermelon. For a deliciously different salad, mix melon balls with diced apple, walnuts and chopped celery. Toss with French dressing. Watermelon pulp, placed in the blender and strained, or put through a sieve, adds sparkling flavor to fruit juice cocktails. In a recipe tested by the Watermelon Growers & Distributors Association, watermelon pulp has been used in an interesting new way—in an easy-to-make gelatin dessert. Watermelon juice was substituted for part of the water and the pulp was stirred into the gelatin after it started to set. Tropicd Melon Mold 2 3-ounce packages mixed 1 cup watermelon juice fruit-flavored gelatin 1 cup watermelon pulp, 1 cup boiling water pureed 2 teaspoons lemon juice Add cup of boiling water to gelatin. Stir to dissolve completely. Place watermelon in blender until liquefied, then strain to separate pulp from juice. You will need 1 cup of juice and 1 cup of pulp. (Without a blender, force melon through a sieve.) Add cup of watermelon juice and 2 teaspoons lemon juice to gelatin. Chill until slightly thickened. Fold in watermelon pulp. Chill until set. To unmold, dip quickly into lukewarm water, shake to loosen, and invert onto a plate. Garnish with green grapes, or sweetened cream cheese balls rolled in chopped pecans.
