...Connecticut: the Little League World Series, beating Canada 3 to 1 in the finals; at Williamsport, Pa. Pitcher Mike Roche allowed only three hits while striking out 14, and First Baseman Dale Misiek, the biggest player in the series (at 5 ft. 10 in., 180 Ibs.) cracked a two-run homer to provide the winning margin for the team from Windsor Locks, Conn...

At last, Tommy Tresh got to Koufax for a two-run homer. But Bobby Richardson, who struck out only 22 times all season, whiffed three times. "That," muttered a Yankee, "is an act of God." Finally, with two out in the ninth, Koufax fogged the final fastball past Harry...
