Heffner fanned 13 and blanked Tacoma on eight hits Monday night in a 1-0 sizzler with the Giants' Jim Consta ble and John Pregenzer, two men who have hurled in the National League. The win moved Seattle to within a half-game of Tacoma in the Northern Diviaion chase. , Heffner has knocked around the minors for seven years now. His 62-39 lifetime mark shows that he has got the winning habit, but he's never 'A DALTONS COMING The rough and tough Dalton Brothers, scourage of the wrestling ring, will be featured in a tag team match against Rocky Columbo and Andre Drapp at Med ford armory next Thursday night. The Daitons, Jack, left, and Jim, are fast draw artists and gun specialists. Jack will present a fast draw demonstration before the main event. Tickets for the three-ply card are available at Lamport's Sporting Goods store in Medford. What's Keeping The Giants In First? By HAL WOOD UPI Sports Writer San Francisco fUPB What's holding the San Francisco Gi ants up on that first rung in the National league pennant race? Don't ask manager Alvin Dark. He doesn't know. Nei ther does Vice President Chub Feeney or any of the other magicians connected with the Giants' organization. "We just aren't hitting," says Dark. "And we aren't fielding." That's obvious. But the Gi ants still cling to first place. They hold a one game mar gin over the arch rival. Los Angeles Dodgers going into to night's battle with the Phila delphia Phillies. Billy O'Dell (5-0) of the Giants was sched uled to oppose Ray Culp (4-2). The two teams had a break in their four game series Monday. As a team, the Giants are batting at only a .249 rate. And they are fielding at a weak .972 clip. They have made 39 errors, nearly a third of what they made all last season. They have made only 21 double plays - low in the league. The pitching has been spotty and only Jack Sanford looks reliable on the hill. Anemic Averages For a club noted as a slug ging unit, this team is looking more like Hitless Wonders. Only they aren't so bad, but some of these averages have been fattened with the bases empty hits. Clutch hitting just hasn't been a trademark so far this season - except, pos sibly, for catcher Ed Bailey. Willie Mays is batting .269 against .304 last season. Catch er Tom Haller is .250 against .261; Jim Davenport .240 against .297. Jose Pagan is only .215 against .259. And the 1962 league's leading fielding shortstop already has made more errors than he usually does in a half season. SPORTS Chuck Hiller, before he was sidelined with a cracked bone in his hand, was hitting only .127 against .276 in 1962. Har vey Kuenn, used only sparing ly, is hitting .192 against .304; Matty Alou .111 against .292 and Joey Amalfitano .188 against .237. Dark and the rest of the Giants brass are firm in their belief that the boys will snap out of it. They waited out a 100-point slump by Felipe Alou and it paid off with that ninth inning homer that gave San Francisco victory in the second game of a twin bill with the Phils on Sunday. Mays' Totals Grow Mays never has been able to get on stride this season. He has slowly built up his hitting from around the .200 Tnark. Unnoticed to the press and public, when Willie came to bat in the second game of that twin bill he moved from sixth to fourth place in the all-time at-bats for Giants. He now has been to the plate 5,996 in his 11 seasons with the club and is topped in that department only by Mel Ott, Travis Jackson and Larry Doyle. And Willie still has at least another eight cam paigns ahead, if his health stays sound. Mays this year also moved up in the total hits records. He passed Mike Tiernan, who played around the turn of the century, and now has 1,882 bingles and he's in third place behind Ott and Bill Terry. Of the 12 hitting depart-' ments, Ott leads the Giants in nine. Terry is the top hit ter with an average of .341; and Mays tops the slugging percentage at .588. And Willie is among the top 10 in 11 of the 12 departments. But you'd never know It the way he has been hitting this season. put together that one big year a pitcher needs to make the majors. Now he is 4-1 with the Rainiers and the 26-year-old Pennsylvania Dutchman may finally make it yet. In , other action Monday flight, Dallas-Ft. Worth blank ed Oklahoma City 2-0 behind the Jive-hit pitching of Ted Sadowski; Tom S a t r i a n o's homer with one on in the 8th gave Hawaii a 7-5 win over Spokane; and Denver out- slugged Salt Lake City 11-7. Sadowski, wheelhorse of the Dallas runs because of his speed on the bases. He dou bled in the fourth,, came to third on a fly ball and scored on an infield out. Then he walked in the sixth and roar ed home on a double by Joe Nossek. Satriano's homer capped a see-saw affair at Honolulu be fore 1694 fans. Dick Simpson of the Islanders also slugged one with a mate aboard, while Al Ferrara of Spokane poled two fourmasters good for three runs. Hal Griggs won in relief and Jack Smith was the loser. Ethan Blackaby and J. W. Porter paced Denver against Salt Lake. They accounted for five of the Bears' 10 hits and drove in five runs. Re liever Dick Kelley got the win. Seattle scored its run against Tacoma off Constable in the first inning. Stan John son got an infield single, and went to third on Bobby Gene Smith's single. Seattle tried a double steal and Tacoma used the cut-off play. Johnson was out by a mile but catcher Tom Talton dropped the ball and that proved to be the difference. San Diego and Portland took the night off.
