PINCH-HIT JOB Giants Defeat Reds On McCovey's Clout HAL BOCK Associated Press Sports Writer Things are back to normal in Candlestick Park these days. Willie McCovey is delivering souvenirs to the kids who gather the right field fence the Giants are winning ball games. Willie Mays is even hitting homers again. That delightful combination of McCovey and Mays, with a dash of Dark, lifted San Francisco Giants into a virtual tie for the National League lead Wednes- day with a 3-2 victory over Cin- cinnati Reds, Things didn't look too good for 8 1-3 innings. Cincinnati starter Joe Nuxhal! had a six-hitter and a 2-1 lead going into the ninth. The vet- eran lefty had helped his own cause with a homer in the fifth to balance Mays' 19th homer which came in the first. Nuxhall got Jim Davenport leading off the ninth but then Jose Pagan rapped a single. That's when Dark made his move. SENT IN WILLIE He motioned McCovey, a left- handed hitter who's been battl- ing a season-long slump, to bat for right-handed Del Crandall against the southpaw pitcher. That's wrong you say? Maybe but who can argue with suc- cess? Certainly not the Giant players who mobbed McCovey after Nuxhall's second pitch landed among the youngsters behind that right field fence. Why did Dark ignore the us- ual baseball strategy? ; "We didn't have any right- handed pinch hitters," he told reporters after the game. The victory moved the Giants within seven percentage points of the league-leading Philadel- phia Phillies, who ran afoul of Billy Williams and lost to Chi- cago Cubs 9-5. In other NL games, Pittsburgh Pirates' Bob Friend won his llth straight against New York Mets 3-2, St. Louis Cardinas nipped Houston Colts 2-1 and Sandy Koufax fire his fourth shutout as Los An- geles Dodgers blanked Milwau- kee Braves 5-0. Almost as wel- come as McCovey's blast was the one Mays unloaded. He had been held homerless' for 19 games. Williams smashed two hom- ers and knocked in five runs as the Cubs cut down the Phillies. He also had a triple. Reliever Jack Baldschun wild- pitehed Chicago's lead run across in the seventh after the had blown an early Friend, who has never lost to the Mets, received shoddy field- ing support from the Pirates but survived with a strong eight- hitter. The Pirates tagged loser Tracy Stallard for all their runs in the first inning with Willie Stargell's ninth homer account- ing for two of them.

He ruled the incident was an acci- dent. Magistrate Kenneth Langdon had dismissed the charge Feb. 27, ruling that Bishop had con- sented to the assault by accept- Slump Puts Leafs Into Fourth Place By THE CANADIAN PRESS It has been a terrible two weeks for Toronto Maple Leafs of the International League.
