Last year on June 7 the Los southpaw strikeout artist was 7-2. Today 8-2 after Monday 6-3, three-hit, 13 strikeout masterpiece victory over Philadelphia in which he had a one- hitter going until the ninth and at one stretch retired 17 men in a row. The victory gave the Dodgers the rubber game of the five-game series and cut San lead to two games. By comparison the 26-year-old Brooklyn native, who has racked up 1,089 strikeouts in his eight- year major league career, is one game ahead of last year in victories so far. But to win 20 have to do better in the months of July and A-Ugust.

Going back to 1961 again, by the end of June Koufax had won 10 games while dropping four. But during the long months of July and August he was able to register only five tliree in July and two in August. Ovei the same stretch he dropped five games but finished the season with an 18-13 mark. Recalling the letdown last year, Koufax said today it was one of those Can you win 20? he replied can tell you after the season is over. I can only win one at a time.

I have a goal of 20. My goal is to win as many as I Meanwhile, 13 strikeouts Monday night gave him a total of 123 in 101 innings this year, tops in the NL. It also was his fourth complete game in a row. He gave up a leadoff single to Tony Taylor in the first, then got the next 17 batters before he issued a walk to Taylor in the seventh. A single by John Callison, a walk and pinch-hitter Jacke homer ruined his shutout in the ninth.

By finishing second, tlie Californian picked up six points and moved into a 10-10 first place tie with Graham Hill in the battle for world driving honors BOSTON (AP) Who has the inside track for American League rookie honors this Belinsky, Manny Jimenez or another bright newcomer? League headquarters, not wanting to seem partial, left the answer up to fan' discussion today when it issued a report on the 43 rookies on squad rosters. The home office notes that about 20 already have bid strongly for recognition.

Southpaw whiz Belinsky, of hit fame appears the current choice on the defensive side of the ledger. The glib Los Angeles hurler has a 6-2 record and a glittering 2.51 earned run average to go along with the first no-hitter since 1958. Offensively, Kansas City outfielder Jimenez heads the race for the batting crown by consistently turning back challenges from veteran stickmen. The Dominican Republic native is batting .362. A lefthanded swinger, he has masfered the art of hitting to the opposite field.

The have eight, including catcher Joe Azcue and third baseman Ed Charles, who came in the deal that brought Jimenez from Milwaukee. The others are outfielder Jose Tartabull, plus pitchers Dave Wickersham (6-1 including last six in a row, 2.70 ERA), John Wyatt, Dan PfisW and Diego Segui. The six are promising catcher Bob Rodgers, infielders Felix Torres and Tom Burgess, and pitchers Dean Chance and Bob Botz. Switch-hitting Mike Tresh handles shortstop so well for the New York Yankees that there is talk predecessor Tony Kubek will be an outfielder after he returns from service. Tresh has socked home 27 runs with his workmanlike .270 batting average.

More recently, outfielder-first baseman Joe Pepitone has blossomed into a dangerous slugger for the defending world champs with 10 extra base blows and 10 RBI to show for 21 hits. Cleveland is impressed by its rookie outfielders, Al Luplow emd Ty Cline. Second baseman Bernie Allen plus righthanded pitchers Joe Bonikowski and Lee Stange get a major assist in helping the surprising Minnesota 'Twins remain close to the pace. Chicago claims strongest, most accurate in for outfielder Mike Hershberger 274, 22 RBI), and has five complete games out of righthander Joe Horlen (5-2). Though temporarily eclipsed by a log injury, 6-5, John (Boog) Powell of Baltimore is a strong contender for rookie laurels.

Pitcher Dave Stenhouse has proved a rugged foe as his 3-1 record for last-place Washington attests. Boston offers a battery of giants, righthanded relief pitcher Dick Radatz (6-6, 240) and catcher Bob Tillman (6-4, 210). Radatz 37 strikeouts and a 2.17 earned run average for 29 1-3 innings. Tillman has five tape-measure homers, 12 RBI since winning the regular assignment May 20. For when the colorful Pittsburgh Pirate outfielder complains of sickness, usually a terror at the plate.

Louis and Houston. In 33 at bats, he slammed 14 hits, including two homers and a pair of triples, and also drove in eight runs. a wonder the Cards and Colts call for Dr Kildare. That splurge last week also raised batting average from an anemic .244 to a respectable .281. Of course, that's still a few penicillin shots from the .351 mark that won the 28-year-old Clemente the batting title last year.

During the winter I feel real Clemente said. lost 18 pounds but picked my weight back up a little since then. feel too strong and sometimes when I run I get short of breath.

His current .281 average is third behind Dick Groat and Smoky Burgess of the Pirate regulars. His 23 runs batted in is second only to Bill 28, and he is tied for second in home runs with five less than the slugger Dick Stuart.
