CLEVELAND The weather is heating up.
So is Tony Oliva.
Oliva, Minnesotas seven-time All Star, sin-
gled twice, launched his 10th home run and
drove in three as the Twins outslugged the Indi-
ans on Tuesday night, 10-7.
Oliva is accustomed to being an offensive
difference-maker, having led the American
League in hitting in 1964, his rookie year, and
65. He surely was unaccustomed to his slow
start to the 1971 season.
Through May 2, Oliva was batting .217 with
two homers and 11 RBI. Since then, despite
missing time with a hamstring injury, he has
hit .384 with eight homers and 28 RBI.
Minnesota trailed 1-0 Tuesday night when
Oliva tagged a three-run home run in top of the
fifth inning. His leadoff single in the eighth ig-
nited a six-run rally highlighted by Paul Ratliffs
first career grand slam.
Bert Blyleven (3-6) earned the win despite
allowing seven runs in eight innings. Pete
Hamm finished up for his first save.
Tribe reliever Rick Austin surrendered four
runs in one-third of an inning and fell to 0-1.
Royals 10, Yankees 4
KANSAS CITY Pinch-hitter Gail Hop-
kins broke a 4-4 tie with a two-run homer and
reliever Tom Burgmeier broke the game open
with a grand slam as the Royals beat the Yan-
kees for the first time in five meetings this year.
Kansas City took a 3-0 lead in the bottom of
the first. The Yankees fought back to a 4-4 tie
in the sixth on an RBI single by Bobby Murcer,
who extended his hit streak to 13 games.
Royals reliever Jim York (3-0) hurled 1 1/3
innings of shutout ball to cop the win. Burg-
meier notched his second save in addition to
clubbing his first career home run.
Yankees starter Steve Kline (9-2) allowed
six runs in seven innings and lost for the first
time since April 30.
White Sox 11, Tigers 6
DETROIT Catcher Tom Egan powered
two homers and had six RBI both career
highs as the White Sox subdued the Tigers.
Egans RBI single broke a scoreless tie in the
second inning. His three-run homer in the top
of the fifth put the White Sox on top 8-2, and
his two-run shot in the ninth gave the ChiSox
an 11-5 advantage.
Joe Horlen (3-2) won despite allowing five
runs in six innings. Tigers starter Mike Kilken-
ny gave up five runs in three innings and fell to
0-2.
Brewers 4, Orioles 3
BALTIMORE Tommy Harpers RBI sin-
gle broke a 3-3 tie in the fifth inning and the
Brewers edged the Orioles despite hitting into
their second triple play of the season.
It was the Brewers fourth win in a row, a
season best.

The Secret to Aarons Success:
A Sip of Sherry Before Games
By IRA BERKOW
NEA Sports Editor
NEW YORK (NEA) A
current television commercial
depicts Henry Aaron draggin.
The reason, according to this
paid, lugubrious advertise-
ment, is that Henry Aaron
aint had his Wheaties today.
More likely, if Henry Aaron is
feeling dilapidated on a partic-
ular day its because he hasnt
consumed his morning glass
of Harveys Bristol Cream
sherry.
No, Henry Aaron will never
confused with, say, Joe Na-
math. Namath admittedly in-
gurgitates whole bottles of
grog in an evening for pleas-
ure. Aaron sips a small daily
potion of sherry for energy.
It began, says the Atlanta
Braves outfielder, about 10
springs ago. It was spring
training 1961. Aaron in 1960
had had a miserable (for
him) .292 batting average after
having led the league in hit-
ting in 1959 with .355.
I was feeling tired in
games, he said. It was be-
cause I was weak from not
having eaten during the day.
Bob Feron was our trainer
in Milwaukee and he suggest-
ed that I drink a small glass of
sherry in the morning. He said
it would give me an appetite.
I have trouble eating dur-
ing the season. I guess its a
nervous stomach.
Now, in the spring of 1961,
Aaron was worried about his
empty stomach. He tried
aperitif and it worked.
I began drinking sherry the
morning before day games and
the afternoon before night
games, he said. And I used
to carry a bottle in my travel-
ing bag during the season
Henry again began feeling
his oats, to mix a cereal meta-
phor, and came back in 1961
with a .327 average.
Now, he says, I usually
have one egg for breakfast. I
can shove down a piece of
toast and also about six pieces
of bacon. (Periodically, hell
even have Wheaties.)
Lately, he has been off the
hard stuff. He has a swollen
knee and each morning he
takes a pill to reduce the pain
and the swelling. It is well
known that pills and booze
dont mix.
But when I stop the pills
Ill go back to my daily glass
of sherry, he said.

Birds third baseman Brooks
Robinsons solo homer broke a
scoreless tie in the second in-
ning. The Brewers scored twice
in the third.
They appeared on the verge
of another fruitful rally in the
fourth with runners on second
and third, a run in and no outs.
But catcher Ellie Rodriguez
lined to Robinson, who stepped
on third to double off one run-
ner and fired to second to triple
off the other.
Lew Krausse (3-8), who hit
into a triple play April 7, won
for the second time in 12 starts.
Baltimores Jim Palmer (6-3)

Mays broke a 2-2 tie with an
RBI single in the top of the

went on to defeat the Phillies.
The Phils took a 2-0 lead on
Roger Freeds seventh home
run in the fourth inning. Willie
McCovey doubled home a run
in the sixth, and had an RBI
single in the Giants four-run
rally in the seventh.
San Francisco starter Ron
Bryant (5-2) held Philly to two
runs in six innings. Jerry John-
son earned his ninth save with
two scoreless innings of relief.

Monday tripled for Oakland
and scored the tie-breaking
run on a ground out.
Dick Green walloped his
sixth home run, a two-run
shot, in the seventh for Oak-
land. It gave him two more
round-trippers than all of
1970, when he batted a career
-low .190.
I thought I was washed

Now?

playoffs and a World Series.
Senators starter Gerry
Janeski fell to 1-5 after allow-
ing four runs in 2 2/3 innings.
Red Sox 5, Angels 3
ANAHEIM Gary Peters
became the first pitcher to hurl
a complete-game 16-hitter in
three years as the Red Sox
topped the Angels.
Peters allowed baserunners
in eight of nine innings, but
stranded 11 Halos. The last
complete-game 16-hitter was
authored by the Giants Gay-
lord Perry on Sept. 28, 1968.
Peters (6-6) also belted his
second homer of the year, and
the 18th of his career. Angels
starter Tom Murphy (3-8) al-
lowed five runs in seven in-
nings.
Reds 6, Cardinals 0
ST. LOUIS Jim Merritt
tossing a seven-hit shutout as
the Reds blanked the Cardi-
nals.
Merritt (4-5), a 20-game
winner last year, won his first
two starts of this season, then
went 0-3 in his next six. Tues-
day marked his first start since
May 27.
Lee May supported Merritt
with two home runs and five
RBI. Tommy Helms had three
hits for Cincy.
St. Louis starter Reggie
Cleveland (6-6) allowed six
runs in 8 1/3 innings.
