The New York Yankees snared two young starting pitchers and a regular shortstop from Baltimore yesterday in a deal involving at least 12 players worth over $500,000--probably the biggest trade in baseball history.

The Yanks grabbed Bob Turley, league strikeout king, and Don Larsen. They also acquired Billy Hunter to take over Phil Rizzuto's shortstop job.

Gene Woodling, veteran outfielder went to the Orioles with right-handed pitchers Harry Byrd and Jim McDonald, shortstop Willie Miranda and two rookie catchers.
