Patek's double sinks Tigers
By The Asociated Press
DETROIT-Fred Patek dou-
bled in two runs and Al Fitz-
morris picked up his eighth
victory last night as the Kansas
City Royals extended their win-
ning streak to six games with
a 5-2 victory over the Detroit
Tigers.
Patek's double came in the
seventh and gave the Royals a
5-1 lead. It followed a leadoff
single by Al Cowens and a
double by Tom Poquette.
Patek's hit knocked starter
Frank MacCormack - making
his major league debut-out
of the game in favor of Jim
Crawford.
Fitzmorris gave up six hits
and raised his record to 8-2. He
was relieved by Steve Mingori
in the seventh due to an injury,
apparently to his right knee. He
walked off the field without
help.
Mingori w a s replaced by
Marty Pattin, who was followed
by Tom Hall with the bases
loaded and one out in the De-
troit ninth. Hall struck out both
batters he faced to set the Ti-
gers aside and save the triumph.

American League's sole lead
