Shift May Have Worried Pedro

Pedro Gonzalez faltered at second but starred in right field as the Indians lost 5-4 in 11 innings to the Senators in D C Stadium. The decisive 11th inning error by Gonzalez came on Jim King’s bases loaded grounder, allowing Bob Laverine to score. Gonzalez then moved to right-center in ninth to cover Frank Howard, but Howard didn’t reach base that inning. In the rest of the American League, Baltimore beat Boston 5-3, New York beat Detroit 5-2, Chicago defeated Minnesota 3-1, and California beat Kansas City 4-2. Brooks Robinson homer and Frank Robinson’s RBI supported Steve Barber’s win. Mel Stottlemyre held a five-hitter for the Yankees. Detroit’s Kaline homered. Chicago’s John pitched six as the White Sox finally beat the Twins. Angels’ reliever Sanford earned his seventh win.
