Nelson Briles, who fashioned a
two-hit, 4-0 victory over the Balti-

threshold of their first world cham-
pionship since 1960, wound up cry-
ing about it.
The victory, achieved at the ex-

best in baseball history, was the
Pirates' third straight and gave1
them a 3-2 lead in the best-of-sevent

WILD CONGRATULATIONS were in order for Pirates' pitcher Nelson Briles yesterday as he shu
out the Orioles in the fifth game of the World Series. Briles' effort has earned him the distinction o
being the only pitcher to cop a shutout in the fall classic this year.
Briles struck out just two but
also walked only two. He went to
a full count on only two other bat-
ters while throwing just 99 pitches.
The Pirates, meanwhile, got
started early against Dave Mc-
Nally, the ace of the Baltimore
staff, with Rob Robertson hitting
the first pitch in the second inning
for a home run.
Briles and Roberto Clemente,
collecting his ninth hit, also drove
in runs for the Pirates while Gene
Clines scored on a wild pitch.
After Robertson connected in the
second, the P i r a t e s cracked
through for another run in the
same inning when Manny Sanguil-
len singled, stole second and rode
home on a single by Briles.
In the third the Pirates em-
barrassed the three-time American
League champions by scoring
without a hit.
Gene Clines opened the inning
by walking, took second as Cle-
mente grounded out, streaked to
third when Robinson bobbled Rob-
ertson's grounder and scored on
McNally's wild pitch. The Pirates
Imade it 4-0 in the fifth, chasing
McNally on Clines' triple and
Clemente's single.

PITTSBURGH'S GENE CLINES uses his 9.5 speed to steal
second base in the first inning of the fifth World Series game.
Clines, known to Pirate fans as "Little Angry," tripled and scored
later in the contest, as the Bucos shutout the Orioles 4-0 behind
Nelson Briles' two-hit pitching.

Esposito sparks Boston victory
By The Associated Press
BOSTON-Phil Esposito, who set
a National Hockey League scoring
record with 152 points in the 1970-
71 season, connected for two goals
and contributed three assists last
night in leading the Boston Bruins
to a 6-2 victory over the Buffalo
Sabres in steamy Boston Garden.
Esposito's left wink, Wayne
Cashman, also scored two goals'
while linemate Ken Hodge collected
four assists. The line set an NHL
record by scoring 140 goals and
'0336 points last year.
Veterans Bobby Orr and Johnny
Bucyk also got into the scoring
act for the first time this year.

league's scoring championship with
139 points, last season, scored on

Rockets trimmed the lead to 91-88

and a free throw to widen the
Philadelphia margin and they were
never in trouble again.

fans, broke from a 9-9 tie to a
15-9 lead in the first quarter but
the 76ers rookie Dave Wohl from
Pennsylvania hit eight of Phila-
delphia's next nine points to give
the 76ers a 28-27 first quarter lead.

NEW YORK (A-Commissioner
Pete Rozelle of the National Foot-
ball League said yesterday he
would have to know more about
Ralph Wilson Jr.'s suspension by
the New York State Racing Com-
mission before deciding if any ac-
tion would be taken against the
Buffalo Bills' owner.
Wilson was suspended for 30
days by the Racing Commission
Wednesday on charges of conceal-
ing the ownership of several horses
by an unlicensed person.
"I can't say any action will be
,taken one way or another until
I know all the facts," Rozelle said.
"It's just something I've got to
learn more about."
Wilson said in a statement re-
leased by the Bills :
"The charges by the New York
State Racing Commission against
4me involve nothing more than a
technicality and. I strongly resent,
any implication by the Commission
that I knowingly participated inj
anything of a . devious nature."
The Racing Commission identi-
fied the man whose ownership was
concealed by Wilson as a Ralph:
0ibutti and said Libutti had beenI
banned from all tracks under itsI
jurisdiction.
"The suspension orders speak
for themselves," Racing Commis-
- S
g IitUIEuiJ~

sion Chairman Joseph A. Gimma
said yesterday. "It would be in-
appropriate for me to make any
statement at this time."
Besides Wilson, trainers John
Camop and George Pople were sus-
pended for concealing Libutti's
ownership of horses.
Clifford Wickman of the Thor-
oughbred Racing Protection Bu-
reau said Libutti had applied for
a New York owners license under
the name of Robert Nicholas
Spadea in thesummer of 1968 and
was ordered to appear before the
stewards concerning some horses
he owned and debts he owed.
Wickman said Libutti did not
appear before the stewards and on
Sept. 4, 1968, the stewards ruled
that he be denied entrance to the
track until he appeared for a
hearing.
The ruling by New York ste-
wards extended to tracks through-
out the nation, Wickman said.
