DOLPHIN NOTES: Only iT 'J All-Star Veterans Dot NL Mound Corps But Tht Associated Prtst Boog Powell had his fancy hitting clothes on, but the Cinderella guy turned out to be Larry Stahl, who brought the Kansas City A's home just before the clock struck midnight.

Powell, Baltimore's slugging first baseman who has been on a hitting tear since the beginning of May, tied the American League record by driving in 11 runs in the Orioles' twi-night doublehead-er against the A's last night. But the best the Orioles could do was gain a split, winning the opener 11-0 before Kansas City took the nightcap 9-8 when Stahl slipped into the glass slipper and doubled home the winning run in the 11th inning just before a midnight curfew would have halted play. However, neither Stahl's key hit nor the A's sudden role as spoilers they've won nine of their last 15 against front-running Baltimore, Detroit and Cleveland could overshadow the one-man show put on by Powell. The 24-year-old left-handed swinger drove in four runs in the opener with a three-run double and a sacrifice fly, then pushed into high gear in the nightcap and added seven runs batted in with a grand slam homer, a two-run homer and a run-producing double. That tied the AL record for RBIs in a twinbill, accomplished previously only by Earl Averill of Cleveland in 1930 and Jim Tabor of Boston in 1939.

It also lifted Powell's average to .301 and raised his RBI total to 66 one short of the major league leader, teammate Brooks Robinson. Elsewhere, California edged Detroit 1-0 in 10 innings, Minnesota nipped Cleveland 4-3, Washington swept the Chicago White Sox 4-3 and 3-2 and Boston took two from the New York Yankees 5-3 and 5-4. In the National League Willie Mays hits a three-run homer to give San Francisco a 3-2 victory over St. Louis. Pittsburgh trounced Chicago 10-5 for its 10th victory in the last 13 games.

New York beat Philadelphia 7-5, Atlanta walloped Houston 8-1 and Los Angeles topped Cincinnati 1-0. Powell's efforts in the first game backed Steve Barber's five-hit pitching, but he couldn't do it alone in the nightcap. The A's trailed 6-2, then moved ahead with a six-run rally in the eighth. Powell pulled Baltimore back into a tie with a two-run homer with two out in the ninth before the A's finally won it in the 11th when Roger Repoz and Stahl doubled. Angels' starter George Bru-net allowed only two hits and Boston's Earl Wilson just four through nine innings.

California finally broke through against reliever Larry Sherry in the 10th on singles by Tom Satriano and Bob Rodgers around a sacrifice.
