curves that 1t seemed just matter of time
before the Giants would get to Terry again
for the run or runs they needed. 1t was
time to haul out the cliches destinys
children the team that won't be beat,
etc.
But that fresh fresh pulled the rug.
He authored that cheap fourth inning
double, moved up the runner who tied it at
2-2 in the sixth with perfect sacrifice,
blasted the homer, scored twice and drove
across three runs.
YOUNG TOMMY (24) COULD have
become even more immortal because 1t was
his line drive which Sanford speared in
the first inning. Sanford had an easy triple
play in his grasp If he'd thrown to second,
instead Of first base. But, then, does the
man have to do everything?
In San Francisco the Yankees will hold
30 lead in games, with Bill Stafford
and Whitley Ford ready. The Giants will
be playing on home ground with Billy
Pierce and Billy o'Dell to pitch. But may
be the most pertinent question is: can the
Giants keep Mickey Mantle and Roger
Maris bottled up?
Remember Mantle? Yesterday he was
the fellow who couldn't dress by his locker
because it's next to Tresh's. The newsmen
chased Mickey with his Ill batting aver
age out of the main clubhouse as they
pinned down the boy hero.
Probably no series in which they were
participants has been marked by fewer
printed words from Mantle and Maris Only
heroes--Ford, Stafford, Tresh-are inter-
viewed widely.
WITH A PHILOSOPHICAL air, Mickey
carried cold beer into the Yankees tele-
vision room. In the semi-darkness he sat
with Bill Skowron, who struck out every
time he batted, and John Blanchard, the
forgotten man.
I'm topping the ball." Mickey said.
Done it all during the SERIES"
"You hit some good Ones" an invader
suggested.
1.-TWO -. maybe three" Mantle
shrugged. "All the rest nothin'."
Well" Skowron said, 81 couldn't han
die Sanford at all. Couldn't even top a ball."
Hes good" Mickey conceded. Like
Ray Herbert Of Chicago when he's sharp.
And where did Pagan come fromP He's
quite player"
So they sat and commiserated, the
temporary failures, until they could dress
and fly away. If the Giant pitchers can
contain Mantle and Maris (1Ss) they might
make Dark the greatest of soothsayers.
But like the Twin Swords of Damocles, the
bats Of MSsM are poised and bursting
to. be used.
