SoBohis detain Three-Game Spread; IPortDand (Bounces bounties To Tie for Third MEDFORDjTRIBUNE SIPdDIKTrS United Press International The Sacramento S o 1 o n s headed home today with their three-game margin in the Pa cific Coast league intact-and secure in the knowledge that the home run remains the most potent weapon in base ball. A base-clearing blast by pinchhitter Clayton Dalrym ple in the ninth inning gave the Sacs a 5-3 win over San Diego in the opener of a dou bleheader Sunday. It also kept the Solons three games in front of the second-place Padres, who won the final, 7-1. A sweep by San Diego would have shaved Sacra mento's lead to a single game. Dalrymple's grand-slammer came after two were out. Mike Krsnich and Al Heist singled and Bob Perry walked to jam the bases before the Sacra mento receiver put it out of the park. Pete Striker, who came on in relief in the ninth, was responsible for the gopher ball. The victory went to Roger Osenbaugh, the last of three Solon hurlers. Bobby Locke tossed a four hitter in the nightcap, also tripling home a pair of runs, Other Results In other games, Portland swept a pair from Vancouver, 2-1 and 6-2, and Seattle and Spokane split a twin-bill, the Rainiers scoring at will for a 17-1 triumph in the finale after dropping the first game, 5-0. Phoenix weathered a ninth inning rally by Salt Lake City to defeat the Bees, 5-4, in a single game. The sweep by Portland moved the Beavers into a third-place tie with Phoenix. Bob DiPietro belted a homer, triple and double in the second tilt to stake Vic Lom bardi to his fourth win. Len Neal drove in both Portland runs in the opener. Muffett's Win Preserved At Salt Lake, Julio Navarro came on in the ninth to put down the Bee uprising an'd "save the win for Phoenix starter Billy Muffett, who ran into trouble in the final frame by giving up a walk, triple and single. Navarro struck out Eddie Moore and got Dick Barone, who had homered in the fifth, on a liner to left to snuff the rally. Bill Wilson slammed a homer for the Giants in the third. ' Seattle ripped through six Spokane hurlers in its run away victory- The Rainiers collected 15 hits, including a three-run homer by Eric Rodin in the third, to score all 17 of their runs in the first five frames. Gale Wade led the onslaught with four singles and a double in five trips to the plate. Calude Osteen went the route for the win, his third of the year.
