Locker Saves Chicago Win Over Yankees
Chicago White Sox call on relief pitcher Bob Locker in the eighth inning to preserve a 5-2 win over the New York Yankees. Locker, who has been summoned 58 times this season, escaped a jam with a double play and two strikeouts to help Stanky’s club move within one game of first in the American League. Ken Berry and Ron Hansen drove in runs as Chicago’s bats produced seven hits. In other games, Detroit swept Minnesota, Senators edged Red Sox, Angels routed Indians, and Orioles shaded A’s. National League saw Pirates top Cubs, Dodgers hammer Reds, Phillies over Mets, Braves over Astros, and Giants blank the Cardinals. Jim Perry and Harmon Killebrew sparked Minnesota’s win in the twin bill, while Dick Tracewski fueled Sparma’s four-hitter in game one.
