TEAM RISP- Athletics: 3 for 10  Yankees: 1 for 7

Center fielder Mickey Mantle smashed 2 homeruns and had 4 RBI at Yankee
Stadium as the Philadelphia-AL Athletics beat the New York-AL Yankees by the
count of 10 to 3.

Mantle was in a groove all day.  The New York-AL fans hated to see him
approaching the batter's box.  He smashed a bases-empty 'big-fly' in the 1st
inning, tripled resulting in a run in the 4th inning and bombed a two-run
dinger in the 5th inning.  Philadelphia-AL had 13 hits for the game and New
York-AL had 5.  

Johnny Antonelli(9-2) allowed no runs in 5 innings, and picked up the victory.
Camilo Pascual recorded the save, his 2nd.  Carl Erskine(4-12) was tagged
with the loss.  He allowed 3 homeruns in 7 innings of work.  

'Some days it just all comes together, and this was one of them' Mantle said.
'I've been seeing the ball pretty well lately.'
