But the way they're going now in the Pacific Coast league, you might think they took a swig irom Fonce de Leon's fountain and became rejuvenated immediately. Or maybe somebody slipped them some kickaboo .. Joy juice. Golden, a righthander who bats left, shook off early season back and arm miseries to beat San Diego 6-3 yester day in the seven-inning night cap of a doubleheader. The 32 - year - old Johnson made only one bad pitch in hurling the 89'rs to a 9-4 win in the opener. An old muscle injury in the back had plagued Johnson since the start of the season.

Golden, in evening h i s record at 2-2, poked a solo homer to help his cause. Mel Queen of the Padres touched him for his 14th homer, a two-run blast. A former Los Angeles Dodger, Golden was selected by Houston in the $50,000 player draft of 1961. Inficlder George Williams of the 89'ers hit two homers to make Golden's job a bit easier and teammate John Weekly chipped in with an other. All of the circuit swats came off San Diego starter and loser Greg Jancich (2-4). Slam by Saul Padre catcher Jim Saul hit a bases loaded homer off Johnson In the first game. It was his second grand slam mer of the season. Dave Rob erts slammed a homer for Oklahoma City. Roberts and Carroll Hardy each got three hits for the 89'ers and drove in two runs apiece to help Johnson to his fifth win. ' Chet Boak's homer plus an unearned run gave Portland's Norm Bass his first victory in the abbreviated second game. Bass struck out seven Rainiers and allowed only throe singles. In the first game, Kolstad also recorded his first win by finishing strong with five hit- less innings. He allowed two singles in the first inning and a double in the fourth. Seattle scored its only run in the sixth on a Portland double play following three succes sive singles. Jose Santiago (6-2) went all the way for Portland, allowing seven hits.
