OREGON United Press International It's still too early in the Pa. cific Coast league race to start drawing any conclusions, but maybe it's true what they've been saying about the San Di ego Padres. The Padres, tabbed by many as the loop's dark horse, struck twice in the final in nings Sunday to drop Seattle 6-5 and 4-3. The double victory ran San Diego's winning streak to four straight and leaves the Padres on the top of the pile after the first week end of play. It other games, Vancouver belted Hawaii, 14-3, Salt Lake took Portland, 3-2, and Ta- coma turned in a 5-1 victory over Spokane. San Diego grabbed five runs in the fourth inning of the opener with the big blow a two-run double by Harry Simpson. Seattle eventually bounced back for two runs in the fifth to tie it at 5-5 but the Padres took care of the situa tion in the ninth. Dick Barone opened the Padre ninth with a double and moved to third on a poor throw by Rainier left fielder Dave Mann. Tony Roig' and Simpson were walked intentionally and Joe Taylor flied out. Jim Bol ger then moved in as a pinch hitter and promptly singled Barone across with the win ning run. In the nightcap, Mike Herschberger tripled to open the seventh and final frame and crossed with the winning run on Stan Johnson's sacri fice fly. Simpson took care of the rest of the Padre run pro- fduction with a three-run hom er in the fourth. Vancouver also used a big ninth inning to belt Hawaii. The Mounties .scored seven times In the frame on four singles, two Islander errors and a three-run homer by Howie Goss. Goss also homer ed in the fifth with the bases empty to pace Vancouver's 17-hit attack. Dom Zanni got the job done for Tacoma with a steady five hitter. Spokane got an unearn ed run off him in the first frame but Zanni spaced four hits the rest of the way. Tacoma engineered a 10-hit attack with five Giants each driving in a run. The Bees' big left hander, Pete Olsen. bumped into trou ble in the fourth inning when Jim Hickman rocked him for a two-run homer. - However, Salt Lake struck back with three in the seventh for the win. A walk plus sta ples bv Bill Williams, John McLane and Doc Edwards sent two runs across. Then McLane set sail for home and scored when a balk was called on Clint Stark, young Portland pitcher.
