EIGHTEEN THE BRIDGEPORT POST, TUESDAY, AUGUST 31, 1965. YANKEES CHECK 2 RALLIES BY ANGELS TO WIN, 4-2 Jack Cullen Proves Tough in the Clutch Twins Edge 3-2, in Only Other Major League Game LOS ANGELES-(UPl) Rookie righthander Jack Cullen thwart cd two rallies by the Los Angele Angels Monday night as he hurl ed the New York Yankees to a victory in the opener of a four-game series. Only 9,085 a the smalles crowd ever lo watch a Van Uces-Angcls game here, sav the New Yorkers gain their victory in 15 games this season against Los Angeles. Tough In Ihc Clutch The Angels had the bases loaded in the fourth inning ant collected three hits in the sev enth frame off Cullen, who was lough in the clutch. The 25 year-old rookie gave up cighl hits and went the dislancc to put his record at 3-2.

He made 134 pilches. After Los Angeles scored an unearned run in the opening inning, the Yankees scored twice in the second and never looked back. A single by Clcte Boyer, a double by Ray Barker and Cullen's bloop single to right field accounted for the scoring in the second. Elston Howard's eighth home run, in the third inning, and Bobby Richardson's double, followed by a single off the bat ol Tony Kubek in the fifth proved to he the only other scoring efforts for New York. The second Angel run came in the seventh on a double by Al Spangler, Albie Pearson's single off Richardson's glove and a bunt single by Jim Fregosi.

By MURRAY CHASS Associated Press Sports Writer Remember Harmon Killebrew? He used to be the Minnesota Twins' leading slugger. But that was before he dislocated his left elbow. Now he can almost straighten his arm. The Twins thought they would miss Killebrew, also a versatile infieldcr, in their battle for the American League pennant. If they have, though, it's not discernible.

At least not in the standings. When Killebrew was forced out of the line-up Aug. 2. Minnesota had a six-game lead. Now, nearly one month later, Ihe Twins hold a seven-game margin following their ll-in- ning, 3-2 triumph over Detroit Monday night.

Earlier on the day of Killc- brew's baseline accident, ace pitcher Camilo Pascual underwent surgery on his pitching arm for torn muscles. The Twins were in trouble. Or so they thought. The other alleged contenders should be in such trouble. Of 29 games since then, Minnesota has won IS for a .621 percentage.

That's slightly less than its over-all murk of .632. Two major reasons why the Twins have maintained their comfortable margin are Al Worthington and John Klippstein, a pair of elderly relief pitchers. They both pitched Monday night, shutting out Ihe Tigers on three hits in the final five innings. They didn't walk anyone and struck out The Twins won in the when Don Mincher singled, was sacrificed to second and raced home as Sandy Valdcspino lined a two-out single off Larry Sherry. In the only other gumc played, New York defeated the Los Angeles Angels 4-2.

Rain washed out Cleveland at Kansas City, and there were no games scheduled in the National League.

STRIKKOUTS Oei-CMnd. iO; Lotivh. Detroit. ISO. By JOE REICHLER NEW YORK (AP) Yogi Berra, fired as manager by (he New York Yankees last year, may become the manager of the New York Mets next year.

The dramatic but hardly unexpected resignation of Casey Stengel Monday, effective at the end of the season, left the door open (or Berra to step in and take charge of Ihc National League cellar dwellers in 1966. Weslrum May Get Job There is always the possibility that the job will he given to Wes Westrum, who has served ably as Interim manager of the Mets during Stengel's month-long absence. Most observers believe, however, that Westrum, short of pulling a miracle like bringing the Mets home in ninth place will be returned lo his oullptjn duties next year with Yogi elevated from his present job as first base coach. Stengel has not managed the Mets since July 24, when he fell and fractured his left hip. Although an operation was successful, Casey hiis been confined to a wheelchair, occasionally allowed to walk with the use of a cane, as he did al Tuesday's press conference.

His decision to quit came on the advice of Dr. Peter La- Mot te, Ihc club physician who performed Ihe successful operation. Doctor Urged Retirement "Casey," Dr. LaMotle said, "It's a miracle that you can walk today. It was a most serious operation.

I cannot take the responsibility if you insist on returning as manager. "The traveling the job entails, even the act of going out to the mound to lake out a pitcher, would be just too much for a man of your age and in your condition." was not until last Wednesday that Casey finally made up his mind. In a meeting with George Weiss, the club president, Stengel said: "George, I got to face it. You can't counl on me for next year." Weiss, who has worked with Stengel for 17 years, including one year at Kansas City and 12 with the Yankees, accepted Casey's resignation with mixed emotions. The next night Weiss met with the Mets' Board of Directors and recommended a job in an executive capacity for the 75- year-old baseball genius.

Casey was given a two-year conlract to serve as vice president in charge of scouting (he West Coast territory. Minor League Results THK rnrjss INTKKNATIOXAT. I.EAGIT. Syracuse 3. Toronto Atlanta 7.
