Yastrzemski had the sniffles today after returning to the Bos- Sox, ton.

Yastrzemski prone superstar, all but knocked himself out of the July 11 classic when he broke his right hand in a rare fit of temper during the slumping Tigers, 8-1 loss to Cleveland. And Robinson, Baltimore's non-pareil slugger, was nursing a giant-size headache after suffering a slight concussion in a baseline collision with Chicago second baseman Al Weis as the -place White Sox trimmed the Orioles 5-0.

Weis, however, the unluckiest of all. He's wast for the season with torn ligaments in his left knee. In Tuesday night's other AL games the Washington Senators drubbed California 9-4 and the New York Yankees edged Kansas City 2-1 after losing their doubleheader opener 10-2. Kaline, struck out by Cleveland's Sam McDowell in the sixth inning, returned to the dug. out and slammed his bat into the bat rack, fracturing a metacarpal bone in his hand.

The 32-year-old outfielder, who led the All-Star ballot with 242 of a possible 247 votes, was hitting .328, with 15 homers and 53 runs batted in. His freak injury, coupled with Detroit's month-long slump, dampens Tiger hopes for their first pennant since 1945.

McDowell scattered eight hits and Chico Salmon drove in four runs with two doubles and a homer as the Indians extended Detroit's losing string to four games, Robinson and Weis were injured when the Baltimore star slid into second base, breaking up a double play in the fourth inning. Robinson lay unconscious five minutes. toro players then were sent to Baltimore's Sinai Hospital for X-rays. Precautions Taken Robinson suffered a concussion and contusions over his left eye brow. He had trouble recalling the collision and was hospiItalized overnight as a precautionary measure.

He held out of the Orioles' line-ups for at least two days. Weis was to fly back to Chicago today for immediate surgery. His injuries were diagnosed torn medical collateral ligament and a torn anterial cruciate lig. ament, both in the left knee. Rookie Gary Waslewski posted his first victory in the jors, collaborating with reliever John Wyatt on a four hitter as the Red Sox slipped past the Twins.

Yastrzemski played innings after missing Monday night's because of his heavy cold." Tony Conigliaro clubbed a two-run homer off loser Dean Chance in the first inning and the Red Sox added a run in the seventh on singles by Jerry Adair, Bob Tillman and Reggie Smith. Tony Oliva homered for Minnesota in the second inning and singled across another run in the ninth against Wyatt.

Bizarre Act Goes Into Game, This Time It Costs Pirates The Associated Press the game, the PittsPirates put on an act for Matthau and Jack LemDuring the game, they put act worthy of Abbott and first act proved more profAt least several of the Pirates earned $100 each for it. They didn't get anything for the second act except a lot of confusion and 5-2 loss to the New York Mets. In the pregame festivities, the Pirates and Mets acted out a triple play for a scene in the Jose Pagan movie, The Odd Couple, which starts Matthau as a sloppy sports writer and Lemmon as his roommate who is obsessed with cleanliness. In the scene, Bill Mazeroskisubbing for Roberto Clemente who rejected the $100 role-hits into the triple play.

In the game, the bizarre festivities centered around the part of the Pirate line-up that followed Mazeroski, the No. 5 hitter in the batting order. In less zany National League games San Francisco blanked St. Louis 6-0, Atlanta clobbered Houston 13-5, Los Angeles whipped Cincinnati 9-0 and Philadelphia stopped Chicago 4-2. Who Was Up? The odd incident in the PirateMet game came in the third inning after Jose Pagan cut the New York lead to 5-4 with a tworun double.

As Jim Pagliaroni stepped into the batter's box, Less Play Said Bettering Game HOT SPRINGS, Va. (AP) Mickey Wright is playing less and loving golf more and she thinks she has a wonderful chance of winning her fifth Women's National Open Championship, starting here Thursday. "I am playing perhaps the best golf ever in my career," the tall Dallas, veteran of 11 years as a of ssional said today. am crazy about this golf course. I really think I have a good chance to win." Mickey, who replaced the late Babe Did- rikson Zaharias as the queen of Mickey Wright golf and then suddenly cut down on her tournament schedule, is one of 99 players who will compete in the Women's Open over the 6,191 yards, par-71 Cascades course here.

Miss Wright, who hits the ball farther than any woman in golf history, has won four opens, and she has set her goal on surpassing Bobby Jones' record of winning the most Golf Association championships. She still has a way to go. Jones won four men's Opens and five National Amateurs. Mickey has one National Junior Title also to her credit. LONG SHOTS MIRROR, MIRROR ON "I have never felt freer and looser playing in every tournament," the 5-foot-10 blonde said.

"There is no pressure. I found myself physically and mentally ready for the tournaments in which I'm playing. "Last year I won more money than ever in my career more than $40,000 although skipped about 10 tournaments. This year my scoring average is the lowest it has ever been, 72.4." When not on the golf circuit Miss Wright works as an investment counselor in Dallas. She said she finds it fascinating work and hopes she can start whipping the stock market as she has golf courses.

The Open field includes 56 professionals and 43 amateurs. Champ Is Back Sandra Spuzich, who defeated tall Carol Mann by a stroke a year ago, is defending champion, and all other past winners are competing. They include Patty Berg, 49, winner of the first Open in 1946; Betsy Rawls, who like Mickey has won four; Louise Suggs, Cathy Cornelius, Murle Lindstrom, Mary Mills and Miss Mann. The amateur threat is headed by Mrs. Anne Quast Welts, three-time U.S.

So had Gene Alley, who preceded Pagan with the second out in the inning. As the puzzle became unraveled, the participants learned that in the official line-up handed Barlick and Westrum before the game, Pagan was listed as the sixth and Alley the seventh. But the line-up listed batter, on the scoreboard, Alley was No. 6 and Pagan No. 7.

And, unfortunately, for the Pirates, following scoreboard even though the correct, official line- was posted in their dugout. Walker Remembers Wrong How did the scoreboard happen to be wrong? It seems a Pirate broadcaster asked Walker before the game for his lineup, and Walker reeled off-as it turned out, incorrectly--a batting order with Pagan following Alley. "There were six million people asking me lineWalker said afterward. "I'll never give it out that way again. The broadcaster, in the course of conversation, relayed the line- up to the man responsible for putting it on the scoreboard.

So there it was. Met coach Sheriff Robinson caught the discrepancy, but Westrum let it go through the first two innings when the reversal of Alley and Pagan did the Mets no harm. "You don't bring it to the umpire's, attention until they do something that hurts you," Westrum said. Pagan's double hurt, and Westrum tattled. Then the Pirates hurt because they lost two runs and had their third out for batting out of turn.

The turn of events enabled the Mets to hold on to the victory behind a four-run first outburst, capped by Ron Swoboda's three-run homer. Cards Cooled Mike McCormick scattered seven hits as San Francisco cooled off St. Louis, at least temporarily, Hal Lanier struck the big blow, a two-run double with the bases loaded in the fifth inning. Hank Aaron smashed his 19th and 20th homers, a grand slam and a two-run blast, for Atlanta. Houston starter Wade Blasingame, Brave until recently, walked three men before Aaron connected in the third.
