Three of the four runs scored by the Giants in the eighth inning were unearned. Errors by Wills and Wally Moon opened the gates for the tallies. , Dodgers, Hold Lead ' Prior to that inning, the Giants pushed over a pair of runs in the sixth on a pinch walk by Don Blasingame, sec ond baseman Chuck Hiller's single, a sacrifice fly to Har vey Kuenn that scored Blas ingame and two singles by Willie Mays and Willie Mc Covey. The second single sent Hiller home. The Dodgers shot Into a three-run lead in the- fifth when Wills doubled with two away and scored on Charlie Neal's single, which was fol lowed by Tommy Davis hit ting a two-run homer to left field. The contest actually started as a pitching duel between Stan Williams of the Dodgers and lefty Mike McCormick. Williams threw hltless ball for five innings while McCor mick, although he gave up four hits, held the Dodgers scoreless until the fifth. Duffalo, the third of the Giant hurlers, was credited with the win. But he had to be saved by Bolin while Larry Sherry, who had the ill for tune of being in the game when the two errors let the unearned .runs score, was charged with the loss. Both teams were idle today.
