HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Fall.. Oregon Friday. June 14, 1J PAGE 3 B, Portland Sweep From Tacoma's f s jenes Giants By RON SlI'INSKI I'nited Press Inlernalional Jim Mahoney, a powder -puff hitter with one of the lowest bat ting averages in the Pacific Coast League, has turned into a fence buster. The 29-year-old shortstop for Oklahoma City forgot all about his .169 average Thursday night' as tie clouted three homers in pacing the 89ers to a 12-2 burial of Hawaii. His three circuit swats accounted for half of his team's runs. Mahoney now has hit five four baggers, more than he swatted in each of the past eight seasons while playing with teams ranging from the old San Francisco Seals to Boston, Washington and Cleve land of the American League. Another inficlder who has taken a fresh lease on baseball life since the arrival of new Portland manager Danny Carnevale four days ago is the Beavers" Bill Kern. Batting an unimpressive .209 with three homers up to Monday, Kern has hit for the circuit four times in three days to pace Port land to its three-game sweep o( Northern Division leader Tacoma. Kern, eighth in batting in the PCL last year with .315, hit two home runs Tuesday and one each Wednesday and Thursday night when the Beavers downed the lit tle Giants 9-5. Portland slipped into second place ahead of the Spokane In dians who were defeated 5-3 by Seattle. Portland and Spokane are 24 games behind Tacoma. Elsewhere, Ray Withrow hit a pinchhit homer in the ninth to give Denver a 6-5 win over Salt Lake City. San Diego snapped a five-game losing streak by scoring all its runs in the first three in nings and hanging on to nip the Dallas-Ft. Worth Rangers 8-7. Kern's three-run blast plus a solo homer by Portland catcher Gordon MacKenzie balanced solo homers by Tacoma's Bill Hain and Bob Barton and a two-run shot by Jimmy Ray Hart. Bullet Bob Flynn (3-21 came on in relief for the Beavers in the fourth in ning to win his second game in two nights. Danny Rivas (6-2), the first of four Giant pitchers, was the loser. Seattle, with the help of , two Spokane errors, scored three runs in the fifth inning to hand south paw Billy Spanswick his fourth victory against three losses. Spanswick fanned 10 and walked 5. Al Ferrara hit a bases empty homer for the Indians. Spokane starter Joe Moeller 5-5 was chased in the fifth. Salt Lake tallied two runs in the seventh and three in eighth to go ahead of Denver 5-4. But Withrow's homer, the 68th hit by Denver batters thus far this sea eon, settled the issue in the top of the ninth. Catcher Phil Roof L 6-lt mi h. vu to YU lif tn 'ft 0 slammed a three-run homer for Denver in the second. A wild pitch and Roof's errant return toss allowed two of Salt Lake's runs to score in the eighth. A single by John Glenn and Cuno Barragan's triple gave the Bees their two runs in the seventh. Mel Queen's two-run triple and Art Shamsky's two - run single were the big blows for San Diego in the early innings against the Rangers. Fine relief pitching by George McWilliams saved the vic tory for starter John Flavin 4-5. McWilliams came on in the sxith with the tying run on sec ond. He pitched four-hit ball the rest of the way, striking out lnur. San Diego pitcher Sammy Ellis 5-5, who was resinstated Thursday after a three-day sus pension for insubordination, is scheduled to hurl against the Rangers tonight.
