Johnson,
Golden Spur
Oklahomans
By RON SUPINSKI
UPI Sports Writer
Jn the spring Ben Johnson
and Jim Golden of Oklahoma
City were known as Mr.
Aches and Mr. Fains of the
89ers pitching staff.
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.
Islanders Sweep Four
In other games, surprising
Hawaii completed a four
game sweep of Denver 7-2
and 9-8; Seattle's Hal Kolstad
shut out Portland 1-0 on three
hits but the Beavers blanked
the Rainiers 2-0 in the seven
inning nightcap, and Spo
kane's Joe Moeller scattered
nine hits in whitewashing
northern division leader Ta
coma 1-0.
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.
