Baseball Highlights Include Several Home Run Spasms
Bob Allison's solo shot sparked the Twins past the White Sox, Deron Johnson and Jesse Gonder homered for the Yankees in their win over the Tigers, Billy Martin drove in five with a homer and two singles as the Braves beat the A's, Joe Adcock homered for Milwaukee, Dick Schofield's two run shot gave the Pirates a win over the Phillies, Willie Mays and Tom Haller homered in the Giants' victory over the Red Sox, Jackie Jensen retired after a pulled muscle in the right leg, and Washington's year-end injury figures loom as the season nears. The Bloomington Park capacity rises from 22,000 to 30,463, with a plan to seat 40,000 by Sept 1. By then, fans' demand could push attendance past a million in Minnesota. The Cubs add a tape recorder to their IBM-era coaching suite as a new strategy tool.
