MAY 7, 1963 of two regulars - second base man Chuck Hiller and out fielder Willie McCovey - and utility out fielder Matty Alou. X-rays taken in New York Sunday showed that Hiller had a bone chip fracture of the left wrist. Hiller injured the wrist at Pittsburgh last Wednesday while making a tag at second. i McCovey wrenched h i s ankle while running out a triple in the first game of Sunday's doublehcader with the New York Mets at the Polo grounds in New York. McCovey said nothing about the ankle until he asked Dark to lift him midway through the second game. Trainer Frank Bowman said Hiller would be out "two or three more weeks." Bow man, who treated McCovey's ankle during Monday s off- day and also today, said he was not sure whether Willie will be able to play tonight. Matty Alou's injured knee has been responding to treat ment and he has been seeing action as a pinchhittcr. Dark said he may use Alou sparing ly in the outfield tonight if McCovey s ankle is too tender. Marichal, who has lost twice, closed out the Pitts burgh series Thursday with a masterful five-hit victory. The Giants also seek re venge against the Braves who took three straight from the defending National League champions to close out San Francisco s home stand Apr.l zh. During that stand at Can dlestick Park, the Giants won only 6 of 14 games. However, since headine east the Giants won six in a row before bowing to the Mets the finale of Sunday's doublehcader. After concluding the three- game series here, the Giants head to Los Angeles for the iirst 1963 meeting with the Dodgers whom San Francisco beat in a playoff for the Na tional league title last fall.

Iverson Telephone your Chevrolet dealer for Come weeks ago everything was go ing to be okay with the Yanks. When some alarmists sug gested this could be one of their off-years.

And when anyone asked when Mickey Mantle would start hitting, Houk al ways said soon. It looks as if he was- right on all counts.
