ASSOCIATED PRESS Dean Chance's batting average is now .013 and don't think for a minute that makes him unhappy.

Before Friday night it was .000. Chance coasted to his 12th victory against Boston Friday as the Twins crushed the Red Sox 0-1. But a mere bunt tingle in the fourth inning was the high point of the game for the star righthander. It was supposed to be a sacrifice but, somehow, it never got fielded and there was Chance hugging first. Dean had gone 77 times without a hit over the last two seasons, an American League record for hitless at bats, and he was closing in on the major league mark of 37 straight trips without a hit, set In 1961-62 by Bob Buhl with the Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Braves.

Making Chance even more pleased with himself was the fnct that the. hit came off Boston's ace Jim Lonborg when just a day or so ago he'd despaired of breaking his string against the Red Sox' fast-baller. "I haven't got a hit all year and now I've got to face Lonborg and that fast ball," he'd said. Now it's Lonborg' turn to cry, if not for giving up Chance's hit. then for, the other IS that Minnesota got off him and two other Boston pitchers.
