SEPTEMBER 2, 1967 THE MICHIGAN nAll.v TUF MICaaU ~11 \ Azw1L PAGE Bosox By The Associated Press BOSTON - Ken Harrelsont drove in four runs with a homer, triple and double as Boston broke loose from a week long batting last night behind the steady pitching of Jose Santiago." The victory enabled the Red Sox to maintain their slim grip on first place in the American League pennant race and pushed the fourth-place White Sox 2%1 games off the pace. Harrelson belted a two-run triple in the first innings and the Red Sox jumped on ace White Sox left-hander Gary Peters for seven runs in the first two frames to sew up the decision early. The lanky outfielder, signed by Bomb Chicago, R Boston last week after being re- leased by Kansas City, hit his 11th homer with none on in the fifth and drove in another run with a double in the seventh. The Red Sox, who had been averaging only slightly better than 12 runs per nine innings for the past week and were held to two hits Thursday night, be- labored three Chicago pitchers for 13 hits. Santiago, 8-4, giving his third straight strong performance in a late-season emergency as one of Boston's .top starters, allowed only one Chicago runner past first base until the eighth when Ron Hansen's single, rookie Ed Her- mann's double and singles by Tommie Agee and Don Buford produced the White Sox runs. * * * Cubs, Mets Split CHICAGO - Veteran Don Cardwell yielded only five hits and struck out 11 in pitching the New York Mets to a 3-0 victory over the Chicago Cubs in the second game of a double-header yesterday. The Cubs won the opener 8-2 as Ferguson Jenkins recorded his 17th victory. Ron Swoboda and Bob Johnson homered for the only Mets' runs. Cardwell, who had been on the disabled list with a sore arm, picked up his first victory as a starting pitcher since May 26. He had won one game in relief since then. His won-lost record is 5-9. * * * Birds Nip Athletics KANSAS CITY - Curt Ble- fary's run scoring single in the ninth inning gave Baltimore a 2-1 victory over Kansas City last night. Larry Haney led off the inning with a single off Jim "Catfish" Hunter, 11-14, and Sam Bowens ran for him but was caught off second on Luis Aparicio's groun- der after being sacrificed along. Aparicio went to second on the play, however, and came in on Blefary's single, Braves Bow to LA ATLANTA-Al Ferarra's fifth- inning home run, the third of the game for Los Angeles, snap- ped a- tie and sent the Dodgers to a 6-4 victory over Atlanta last night. Successive home runs in the fourth inning by Bob Bailey, his second of the year, and Willie Davis, his third, had given the Dodgers a 4-2 lead before the Braves tied the score in.the. bot- tom of the fourth. Yanks Edge Senators NEW YORK -, Mike Hegan's first major league homer - a two-out blast in the 12th inning - gave the New York Yankees and southpaw Fritz Peterson a 2-1 victory over Washington last night:. Peterson checked the Senators on four hits in going the distance for his sixth victory against 13 defeats. Phil Ortega, 9-8, who also went the route and allowed eight hits, was the victim of Hegan's homer.

II 1112 South University r ' I 1 -Associated Press ALL THE ACTION may be in the American League this year, but you can't prove it here. NL um- pire Frank Dezelan seems to be dancing a jig in yesterday's Chicago Cub-New York Met double- header as Cub Larry Beckert takes third. Actually, Dezelan is trying to avoid a wild throw-in which is skipping past his leg after eluding third-baseman Jerry Buchek. Cubs won, 8-2, but dropped the nightcap, 3-0. AMERICANS ANALYZED: Pennant Fever Burns Entire, League By DOUG HELLtR Chicago was at Boston and De- troit played Minnesota tonight as the boring American League pen- nant race continued. The "race," which has no overwhelmingly dominant team and no definite underdog because nobody can figure out which is which, heads into another week which is sure to settle nothing. The real wonder is that the whole league isn't fighting it out for the title. It wouldn't take much. -Kansas City would be up there. if they got rid of Charles O. Fin- ley. The Yankees just found the answer to all their problems. They just definitely ended their 2%/ year hitting slump against Bos- ton, right after repelling a real live gnat invasion. And spurred on by Carl Yastrzemski night at Yan- kee Stadium, the New Yorkers split' with the Bosox. All the Way in '66' Baltimor'e could easily have fought it out down the line if Frank Robinson, their entire pit- | ching staff, and the rest of their starting lineup had stayed heal- thy. And the whole team had hit like last year. And had fieldedl like last year. And won like last year. Similarly, Cleveland didn't1 necessarily have to trade for De-I troit relief pitchers, thus neces- sitating the use of almost all their starters in relief. Washington was playing .5001 ball until they went into theira recent mild pitchig slump. And if Jim Fregosi of California didn't < come but with "The Thing" and< some fans .didn't send him mores "Things" there would be no tell-l ing how high the Angels wouldr be. Not only would it not take much to bring the rest of the league up to the leaders, but the leaders have been doing' every- thing possible to bring themselves down to the rest of the league. The Chicago White Sox went through almost the whole season with a great pitching staff and no hitting. And then what happened? They "outsmarted" the rest of the league by picking up Rocky Colavito and Ken Boyer for pract- ically nothing. The two elder statesmen did all right for a while, but when last seen Chicago was in fourth place. In 1960 these same Sox defend- ing American League champions, "assured" themselves of a repeat title by picking up Roy Sievers and Minnie Minoso for "throw- ins" plus money. The Yankees won the pennant going away.. In addition, one of the minor. figures Chicago gave up was- Earl Battey. This year, everybody is doing the same thing to "out-smart" everybody else. Boston picked up Elston Howard from the Yanks, Ron Hanssen from Chicago, Jim Landis from Detroit after Detroit let him go after Houson let him go. Boston let him go almost im- mediately. The Red Sox also won the bid for Ken Harrelson, Charles Finley's gift. A New Team Detroit took, Eddie Mathews from Houston, besides Landis, and also grabbed ex-Red Sock Lenny Green from the minors and Don Demeter from the Red Sox., They also brought back Gates Brown and Johnny Podres from the dis- abled list, as well as catcher Bill Heath and infielder Tom Mat- chick from the minors. Don Wert is also back. Is anything left out? A few days vacation in Montreal and the whole league could have been traded. All this gives the rest of the league a clear mandate. Un-re- tire all the old stars (Ted Wil- liams, Whitey Ford) and ship them to some club who has the itch to deal for the players who are really responsible for the pen- nant race. But forget Whitey Ford. He has just been named New York first base coach start- ing next year. Weather Machine Minnesota can also be stopped. All that must be done is to con- vince the Twins that it is really the beginning of the season, when they always have a horrible slump. Spring weather will have to be brought to Minneapolis-St. Paul (heavy snow and rain) and the entire pitching staff will have to be issued sore arms. Injury-ridden Detroit will be- gin to lose as soon as all its good players are reinjured. Now is the time to strike: just when the team is healthy again. New York set the pattern for the rest of the league against Bos- ton.
