HR Held Ray Boone Can Still Rap Ball; Grand Slam Hit By United Press International Ray Boone doesn't get into as many games as he used to anymore because of recurring leg trouble, but when he does, the former Detroit Tigers' big stick man can still powder the ball. Given a chance to play Thursday night because the Tigers just haven't been able to muster the long ball this season, Boone, now 34, sock ed a grand slam home run in the seventh inning to give De troit a 6-3 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. The home run was Boone's fifth of the season out of the total of 22 hits he has banged out and it enabled him to boost his runs batted in total to 17. Pinch-Hitiing Ray, who hit 20 or more home runs for the Tigers in four straight seasons before leg trouble started catching up with him last season, has managed to get into 32 of the 45 games Detroit has played thus far this season, but many of his appearances have been in pinch-hitting roles. A native of San Diego, Calif., he broke into the major leagues with the Cleveland In dians in 1948 and stayed with that club until June 15, 1953 when the Indians traded him to the Tigers along with Al Aber, Steve Gromek and Dick Weik for Art Houtteman, Bill Wight, Joe Ginsberg and Owen Friend.
