The battling Bucs rolled to the biggest lead of the season in the majors by sweeping i dou bleheader from Philadelphia, 11 2 and 4 3, last night, while Milwaukee replaced skidding Louis In second place.

The sweep gave the pirates five victories in their last six games and 12 in their last last 18. Right hander Bob Friend, backed by' 13 hits, won his 13th In the opener. He allowed seven hits, but walked just' one man and put down 17 in a 'rowfrom the second to the eighth inn ings. In the nightcap, Joe Gibbon and winning reliever Roy Face gave up ust five hits between them while the Bucs collected a tie breaking run on a walk in the eighth Inning. Three consecutive bunts, by.

Dick Groat, Bob Skinner and Rocky Nelson, loaded the 'bases and upset loser Robin Roberts, who then walked Roberto Clemente. It was the only pass Roberts allowed, and gave Clemente five RBI the night. Milwaukee moved up as Hank Aaron drove in both runs and Warren Spahn gained his 281st victory In a 2 1 decision at Cincinnati. The Cardinals, with four 'boots giving San Francisco four unearned runs, lost their fifth in a row, 7 3. Fourth place Los Angeles defeated the Chicago Cuibj 7 5 In 11 innings.

THE PIRATES won the opener with a five run first inning against Jim. Owens (3 11), who lost his sixth in a row. Clemente and Skinner each drove In three runs In the first game, with Clemente knocking in two with a single for a 3 1 lead in the opening frame. Skinner counted his three with an elghthMnnlng home run. It was No.

14, his one year high in the majors. Bill Vlrdon's triple and an error brought the Bucs from behind with two runs In the third inning of the nightcap. The Phils made it 3 2 in the fourth, but Skinner doubled and Clemente singled him home to square it again in the sixth. Face (7 6) put it away with two Innings of hitless relief. The Pirates, tagging Roberts (8 11) for a dozen hits, totaled 27 hits In the sweep.

Groat was 6 for getting three hits In each game. PAL Juniors Triumph, 4 3 After spotting the Hoe Bowl team two runs In the first inning, the PAIL players battled back at Spratt park last, night and notohed a 4 3 verdict In the Junior Baseball league playoffs. The decisive run came In the fifth frame and was the result of a walk to Jack Moran. Singles by Dick Pudney and Phil Simmons loaded the bases. Then Moran came across on a wild throw on a plckoff attempt at first base.

Simmons had belted a two run single for the PAL In the third. Rocky Bernard flipped the win and Don Verdi suffered the setback. The teams will play again tomorrow. the Elks club meets Schatz tFedefal in the opening game of the other semi final series. The box score: HOE BOWL IS) PAL (4) urn 111 Br The Associated Press First Mickey Mantle, now Whiter Ford.

The New York Yankees, long a bunch of who struck en masse against the challeng ers, nave come hauling oack in the American league race on two line one man performances. The Yanks looked about as bad as any en nant contender can look when they were plunked out of first place by a doubleheader loss to Washington Sunday. Mantle had been yanked out or me secona game xor failing to run out a ground ball. Then Mantle, pricked 'by pride, put 'em back on top with a pair of two run homers that beat Baltimore 4 3 Monday nignt. And Ford kept them there yesterday, Working with Just two days rest at his own request, the scrappy southpaw came through with his second straight three hit, 1 0 decision as the Yankees swept the two game series and dropped the Orioles from first to third.

It was the second consecutive 1 0 performance in the majors mis season. Jim Toole did it for Cincinnati in the National league back in May. On May 6 O'Toole hurled a 4 hitter against the Cardinals and on May 13 a 7 hltter against the PhiUies. Verdi, II11. rf Cronk.

Umpires: Bowe, Havena. Bills Shift Lucas To Halfback Role BUFFALO (AP) Richie Lucas, star quarterback on Penn State's well ranked 1959 team, was shifted to halfback today by the Buffalo Bills of the Am erican Football league. THE LAST previous time the feat had been accomplished in the American league was back In 1955 when Willard Nixon of the Boston Red Sox did it against Washington, with a five' hitter, and the Yankees, with a 2 hitter. on April 20 24. Ford's performance, backed by a hit batter and singles by Yogi Berra and Johnny Blanchard for a fourth Inning run.

The defending champs defeated Detroit 3 2 with two unearned runs in the eighth" inning Cleveland beat Kansas City 4 3 in 10 Innings, and Washington raooed Boston 8 3. Ford, who beat Washington 1 0 Saturday, took some of the pressure on the Yankees' strain ed pitching staff with his quick comeback. He gave up a leadoff double by Jackie Brandt, then outdueled Chuck Estrada (13 7) by allowing only a fourth inning single by Gene Woodling and an infield hit by Ron Hansen in tne seventh. Ford, now 9 7 with his fourth shutout, walked two, struck out six.
