The Yankees kayo Pat Dobson in the 4th, beating the Orioles, 12 – 3. The loss ends Dobson’s win streak of 12 games, his nine consecutive complete games, and his consecutive scoreless inning streak of 23.

The Pirates power to a 7 – 2 win at Montreal, but lose 3B Jose Pagan when his arm is fractured by a pitch in the 5th by John Strohmayer. He will return to be a World Series hero. Pagan, Willie Stargell and Al Oliverhomer for the Bucs and Gene Alley adds two triples.

Bob Gibson wins his 200th game, a 7 – 2 victory over the Giants at St. Louis.

In a Texas League contest, Tommy Walker hurls a 15-inning no-hitter, beating the Albuquerque Dukes, 1-0. The Dallas-Fort Worth Spur right-hander faces only 47 batters during the minor league game, two over the minimum.

Bill Lee pitches tremendous relief, allowing just two hits in 8 1/3 innings, and the 2nd-place Red Sox come back to beat the American League East first place Orioles, 7 – 4. The Birds get all their runs off Luis Tiant in the 1st.

Having two runners on base after scoring three times in the 12th, the Cards file a protest against the Phillies for failing to get the field in playing condition after two rain delays, one 31 minutes and the other 49 minutes. The Phils say their Zamboni broke down and the score reverts to a 3 – 3, 11-inning tie.
