The game was knotted until the sixth, Oregon’s Jon Wheeler and the Indians’ Sandy Vance locked in a 3-3 duel. Stanford’s Ron Shotts singled up-the-middle to start the in ning. He then went to second on a sacrifice bunt and to third on a fly ball to center, the sec ond out of the inning. Vance, called by many the best college pitcher in the nation, hit a ground ball to shortstop Larry Hanson who fielded the ball cleanly but threw wide to Scott Cress at first base. Wheeler Pulled The error gave the Indians a 4-3 lead, and with Vance at second on the error plus the top of the line-up coming up, assistant coach Jack Roche pull ed c perspiration soaked Wheel er. At this point, Roche insert ed ace left-hander Mike Nicksic in the line-up. Nicksic walked Mark Mar quess, a first team All-Amer ica first baseman last year, and was abruptly replaced by right hander Fred Cardwell. Cardwell gave up another walk to load the bases, and be fore he was able to get the final out on an interference call, Stanford pushed three more runs across on a wild pitch and Bob Gallegher’s two-run single. — Oregon had started the scor ing in the first when Larry Hand ripped a Vance pitch down the leftfield line for a double and moved to third on the ensuing play. Hanson delivered an infield single to bring in Hand, moved to third when Colby Howe’s ground rule double bounced over the centerfield fence, and scored on a wild pitch. Russ Tweet’s double for Stan ford brought in two second in ning runs, one unearned, and tied the game. 2-2. But the Ducks went ahead in the fourth. Hand Starts Rally With two outs, Hand reached first on an infield single, stole second and went to third on the catcher’s throwing error. He remained on third when the umpire missed Bob Boone’s hidden ball pick-ofl', and scored on a second wild pitch by Vance. The Ducks had runners on third base three other times, during the game, but each time left them stranded. Stanford knotted the game in the fifth when Marquess led off with a double to left, moved to third on a wild pitch, and scored on Boone’s single in the hole between third and short. As if the four run sixth hadn’t iced the victory. Chuck Williams hit a 380-foot home run to left center off Cardwell to score two seventh inning runs. Boone’s second double of the game brought in two more Stan ford runs, these off Fred Mas sar, in the eighth.
