After driving in a run with his fourth-inning double, Hank thought he could score on Jake Wood's double.

Coach George art (34) thought otherwise and flagged Hank back to third. Aguirre stumbled, then dove safely to the base as Yankee Cletis Boyer took the throw.

OF THE TIGERS, in fact, had quite a night for themselves as they beat the Yankees for the fifth time in six games. Gus Triandos hit his sixth home run, Jake Wood and Billy Bruton got two hits apiece, Rocky Colavito made a leaping catch against the leftfield screen, Dick McAuliffe made a dandy play behind second and Don Wert ah, Don Wert. The young man fairly Well, he did. Lopez, 30, was carrying $260 when he and roommate Marshall Bridges, 32, checked into the Statler-Hilton Hotel early Friday. It had been a tough series in Baltimore, and they promptly went to sleep.

When Lopez awakened at 11 a.m., the money was gone. So was the silver clip, the last vestige of his labors in baseball's vineyards. Lopez drenched with a near cloud burst at entry time when Chateaugay, Top Gallant, Bon-jour, Choker, Tom Cat and Insurrection were named to oppose Candy Spots in the mile-and-a-half classic.

The running strip at Garden State Park dried from muddy to good for the Jersey Tterby and Candy Spots had 'no trouble. Actually, mud may help Candy Spots, who was rated an odds-on favorite at 1-4 to win his fifth hundred grand of the year. Chateaugay, winner of the Kentucky Derby but second in the Preakness, prefers a fast track while Top Gallant may be sparkled at third base, throwing out Tommy Tresh four straight times, twice on Clete Boyer-type plays. Manager Bob Scheffing called ATHLETES WILL RUN it his club's "best defensive game of the season." Nobody saw reason to argue with him.
