Mays Near Ruth Record With Strong Home Run Pace
Willie Mays, age 35, sits about 200 behind Babe Ruth’s 714, and with projections of 40 home runs yearly to age 40, could reach Ruth by 1971. Ted Williams’ 521 and Jim Foxx’s 524 are discussed as likely to be surpassed soon, with Spahn and Law also noted as frequent victims in Mays’s homer-rich stretch. Vern Law, Don Drysdale, Lew Burdette, Haddix, Podres, Buhl, Koufax, and Roberts are cited among pitchers touched by Mays. St. John’s basketball, under Vern Carnesecca, posts an 18-3 first-season record following Joe Lapchick’s retirement.

Mantle and Maris Homer In Same Yankee Victory
Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris homered in the Yankees 3-2 win over Minnesota, first time since June 18, 1965 they connected in the same game. Mantle’s 370-foot shot in the fourth, Maris’ 410-foot drive in the seventh gave New York a two run lead as Pepitone then homered to seal victory. Joe Pepitone also homered off Al Worthington in the ninth. The twin sluggers, nicknamed M and M, fueled a club surge to three straight wins under manager Ralph Houk as injuries marred last season.
