Boston homers dump Detroit

DETROIT - Carl Yastrzem-
ski's three-run homer in the sixth
inning powered the Boston Red
Sox to a 6-4 victory over the De-
troit Tigers last night for their
sixth consecutive triumph.
The Tigers took an early lead
an Bill Freehan's two runround
tripper, hut couldn't hold it.
George Scott tied the game with
a two run blast into the center
field bleachers and then Yastr-
zemski's homer put it out of
reach.
Joe Coleman took the loss for
the Tigers. His record is now
7-5. Gary Peters took the win.
The Tigers outhit the Red Sox
11 to 9, but left eight on the
bases in going down to defeat. Ed
Brinkman had one of his best
nights at the bat, going three for
four, but got stranded twice.

Detroit had a chance to close
the gap in the ninth inning, but
Tony Taylor got trapped in a
rundown after two runs had
scored and was tagged for the
final out.
Denny wins
WASHINGTON - Bernie Al-
len and Larry Biittner singled
home the tying and winning runs
with two out in the ninth inning,
last night, giving the Washing-
ton Senators a 2-1 victory over
the New York Yankees and en-
abling Denny McLain to break
his personal nine-game losing
streak.
Lenny Randle started the win-
ning rally with a one-out bounc-
ing double over third after Stot-

Senators may desert capitol;
Twins rumored on block
By The Associated Press
" DETROIT - All 12 owners of American League teams huddled
yesterday over the financial woes of the Washington Senators with
some discussion centering on a possible transfer of the team to
Dallas.
Senators' owner Bob Short told newsmen during a luncheon recess
that he had lost what he called "a substantial amount" since he paid
$9.5 million for the team two years ago.
Asked about the numerous rumors that a move of his franchise
to Dallas was imminent, Short replied, "I do not want to move to
Dallas . . . I never wanted to . . . I never intended to but that doesn't
mean I won't move it."
* ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS - The public relations director of
the Minnesota Twins said yesterday the American League baseball
club "will not be sold, under any circumstances."
A Minneapolis sportscaster Hal Scott of WCCO-TV, reported
Tuesday night that the Minnesota team was for sale "if the price is
right." Scott added that the "right price," in the view of President
Calvin Griffith, "is $11 million."
" NEW YORK - Alex Johnson. the controversial outfielder sus-
pended by the California Angels, said yesterday if he were the base-
ball commissioner "I'd try to find out why I was suspended-I'd like
to know if they were justified.
"I had justifiable reasons for not being in the spirit for playing
properly. There was indifference on the whole team in working to-
gether. I felt the game of baseball wasn't being played properly-so
my taste wasn't there."
At the same time, the Major League Players Association said it
was preparing to file a grievance, either with the Angels or the
Owners' Player Relations Committee, questioning Johnson's sus-
pension.
D DETROIT - Owner Gene Autry of the California Angels made
it plain yesterday that he would like to trade his temperamental
suspended star outfielder Alex Johnson but he added, "We are not
going to trade the American League batting champion for a nobody."
The former movie-television star, in Detroit for a meeting of AL
club owners, said in a brief interview that he thought Johnson would
be better off with another ball club.
* HOUSTON - Atlanta Braves slugger Hank Aaron says he
plans to check into a hospital after the season ends for treatment of a
knee ailment.
Aaron, who has been bothered by a constant swelling in his left
knee since spring training, says he wants to "see why this fluid keeps
coming back. My knee was starting to balloon up again last night"
