Glaring Sun Helps Lolich Pitch Tigers Over Red Sox, 7-1 Boston Mickey LoUch pitched the Detroit Tigers to a 7-1 victory over the Boston Red Sox Saturday and back into their half-share of first place in the American Eastern race. Working before 30,407 persons i Fenway Park and a national television audience, the 32-year-old left-hander allowed only six hits and two walks.

It was his 21st victory of the season, though he has won only four of his 14 starts in the last two months and has not won anything in Boston in more than a year. He got plenty of help, though, from the glaring sunshine when the first two Detroit batters hit fly balls that were lost and dropped. And before the first inning was over, Boston was three runs down as the four-team race turned into its final week and a half. It remained a cat-and-mouse situation, though, with first one contender and then another drawing a bead on the big prize. The Red Sox, though losing again Saturday, clung to first place by half a percentage point in a virtual tie with the Tigers.

Next came the defending champion- Baltimore Orioles, two and a half games back, and the New York Yankees, three and a half. For the second time in three games with Detroit, the Red Sox starting pitcher did not survive the first inning and for the second time in three days the reason was an experiment that failed. In both cases, manager Eddie Kasko was shying away from liis own left-field wall, a great green target for right-handed hitters and only 315 feet from home plate. Recognizing that left-handed pitchers do not thrive under these conditions, Kasko reached far in both cases for a right-hander, especially since his staff was stretched thin anyway. On Thursday night, he took a chance by starting Mike Garman, a rookie just recalled from Louisville, instead of going with John Curtis, who was better established but left-handed.

Garman was quickly rocked for four runs and, before they got the Tigers out, Curtis was pitqhing in relief. The same maddening thing happened Saturday when Kasko narrowed his choices down to Sonny Siebert, who sprained his right ankle two weeks ago, and Mike Nagy, who spent the summer at Louisville. He chose Sicbert, and in the first 27 minutes the Tigers sent eight men to bat and three scored. Siebert, who had expressed reluctance to test his ankle, had good reason to regret the test after Dick McAuliffe opened the game by lifting a routine fly to left field that Dwight Evans lost In the bright sunshine for a double. He had even more reason to regret it when A1 Kallne followed with a routine fly to center and Tommy Harper lost that one in the sun for a two-base error.

Regardless of how the official scorer split such hairs, one run was across, and Siebert promptly worsened his problem by walking Gates Brown and Norm Cash. Then Duke Sims singled to left for another run and Jim Northrop singled to right for the third. The Tigers might have had more but got greedy. Cash tried to score from second on single without sliding and was thrown out, Reggie Smith to Carlton Fisk. The inning finally ended when Bill Lee, a left-handed relief pitcher, got Ed Brinkman to ram one to Rico Petrocelli for a double play.

In the third, the Red Sox got one run back when Kaline missed a shoestring catch on line drive for a triple and Luis flied to making it 3-1..
