CARDS STOP GIANTS By MURRAY CHASS Associated Press Sports Writer If Bob Veale can strike out 16 batters when he's tired, how many can he strike out when he's fresh? The Pittsburgh pitcher may get a chance to answer that question before too long. The reply could be a major league strikeout record. Veale fanned 16 Phillies Tues- day night as the Pirates de- feated Philadelphia 4-0 for their 12th straight victory. Rain de- of two hours and five minutes. Asked how the rain affected him, Veale said: 'It hindered me, It made me} a little tired." He was so tired he came) within two of equalling the ma- jor league record of 18 strike- outs set by Bob Feller in 1938] and tied by Sandy Koufax in 1959 and 1962, j Veale's 16 were the most in 2\the majors this season, ooeg {his own team record of 15 and jine reased his : season total to M7.

Yankees In Eighth Spot, Lowest In A Long Time By JOE REICHLER NEW YORK (AP)--Will New York Yankees be able to come from behind and win the Amer- icam League pennant again? The Yankees haven't lost a pennant since 1959. In each of the last five years, they had to come from behind to win. Using June 1, after a quarter of the season, as a yardstick, the Yankees were never in sole possession of first place on that date in any of those five win- ning years. Of course, the Yankees, cur- rently mired in eighth place, 9% games off the pace, never were this far behind. A year ago at this time, the Yankees were in fifth place, 4% games behind Chicago. They went on to win their fifth straight flag by one game over the White Sox. 1966 WAS WORST The Yankees' worst June 1 position in the last six years was in 1960 when they bided their time in fourth place, six behind Baltimore Ori- oles. At the end, it was the Yankees by eight games over Baltimore, While the present 9% deficit |may appear insurmountable, the fact is that the Yankees made up more than that aftee June 1 in three of the last five years. Their present plight is due largely to crippling injuries te Elston Howard Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle. Howard is still disabled, Mantle is still hobbled by weak knees, and Whitey Ford come strictly a warm weather worker. Maris, back in the line- up, still favors a pulled ham- String muscle. The team as a whole is hit- ting .216. Regulars Clete Boyer, Tony Kubek, Doc Edwards and Maris are hitting below .200, The Yankees have scored three or fewer runs in 17 of their 45 games. And seven of the other nine clubs have hit more home runs. Will the Yankees come back? They've got four months to show whether they can do it again.
