"NATURALLY, Law has a tremendous effect when he's able to pitch," Murtaugh said of last year's 20-game winner who helped the Pirates take the National League pennant. Meanwhile, it appeared that Harvey Haddix and b-y Shantz may have to carry the pitching load for the world champion Pirates, who are in fourth place, 5Vz games from the top. Last year at this time they were four games in first. "Haddix has been pretty good most of the year."

THE PIRATES hitting seems to be as adequate as last year with Don Hoak leading the NL with a .347 average and Roberto Clemente and Dick Stuart up high. But the loss of Law, who hasn't been in regular rotation and who can't work a full game, and Bob Friend's recent slump, have hurt the Pirates.
