Evening Globe Wednesday, July 12, 197 Ob Williams expected junk, hit everything Jr Fisk gushes over Pattiu's performance singles, a homer and a sacrifice 2y in 'he opener. His homer came in the sixth inning and gave the Cubs a 3-2 lead, but Houston struck for four runs in the seventh, capped by Jim Wynn's two-run homer for the victory. In the second game, Williams slammed a first-inning double; clouted his 1 8th homer and added three singles, falling one hit short of the a league record of nine hits him, was so well prepared that he rapped a total of eight hits, i 1 i a home run in each game, drove in four runs and lifted his average to .323. "They were getting me out in Cincinnati on the slow stuff so I figured Houston would start me off the same way," said Williams. "They threw the slow stuff the first two times and then after that I saw everything." Williams had a pair of From Wire Services CHICAGO Billy Williams thought he spotted a Houston scout in the Chicago Cubs' last series at Cincinnati, so he came prepared in yesterday's dou-bleheader against the Astros.

It was a split, with Houston winning the opener, 6-5, and the Cubs, led by Williams, capturing the nightcap, 9-5. "Mr. Williams," as teammate Joe Pepitone refers to i .1 a. 4 MARTY PATTIN 18 scoreless innings Orioles halt skid in a doublehcader shared by eight players. Under baseball rules, he is not credited with eight straight hits because of the sacrifice fly, which came in the eighth inning of the opener.

In other action, the Phillies downed the Dodgers, 4-1, Cincinnati blanked Pittsburgh, 5-0; San Francisco defeated New York, 6-1, Atlanta edged St, Louis. 5-4, in 15 innings, and Montreal edged San Diego, 6-5, in 12 innings. Johnny Bench backed up Jack Billingham's shutout pitching with four straight hits, including his 22d home run of the season, and drove home three runs as the Reds shut out Pittsburgh. A wild pitch by Lowell Palmer with the bases loaded in the 15th forced home Gil Garrido with the winning run and gave the Braves a victory over St. Louis.

Earlier, Hank Aaron hit his 19th homer, the 658th of his career. Clyde Mashore doubled down the left field line with one out in the 12th to score Bob Bailey with the winning run in Montreal's victory over San Diego. Ron Bryant pitched a two-hitter and Willie Mc-Covey homered as San Francisco downed New York. barely Tidrow, who had allowed only two hits and struck out 10 until that juncture. Felipe Alou and Ron a each drove in two runs during a six-run rally in the third inning as New York breezed by California.

Fritz Peterson went the distance for the Yankees, allowing nine hits, and boosted his record to 8-10. Joe Lahoud's ninth inning two-run homer carried Milwaukee over Minnesota. The Twins took a 4-3 lead into the ninth, but Ron Clark opened with a single and a unloaded his fifth homer the year. By Peter Gammons Globe Staff OAKLAND Carlton Fisk got his two certificates for Blue Chip trading stamps. The Oakland radio people were so taken with Marty Pattin's march through the Athletics that they had his catcher on the postgame show, too.

'That had to be the greatest game I've played in," said Fisk. "I guess it was the best pitching I've ever caught, but I know it was the most exciting because it was the first thing like it I've experienced in the majors." If your morning paper had Pattin's one-hitter, you probably read Fisk's name only if you looked at the box score. But once again he did lots of good things. He gave Pattin all the runs he needed in the second inning with a tremendous home run off Joel Horlon, which means he is now the club leader with 11. In the I seventh he lined a single for another run, and he now is at .302.

And, oh yes, he also caught Bill Voss's foul popup to end the game "It's a lot more fun this way," he said with a grin. "Marty has been really hum- ming lately, but then almost everyone has. He hardly made a bad pitch all 4 night." Carl Yastrzemski had two more sin- gles to raise his average to .307 and his hitting streak to nine games And a Juan Beniquez, who helped Pattin by picking up a deflected hopper off the pitcher's glove and gunning down Bert Campaneris at first, had a triple in the eighth and scored on Dave Duncan's i passed ball. The one bad part of the night came A when Pattin hit A's third baseman Sal Bando in the head in the second. Fortuna- tely the helmet, absorbed most of the force of the pitch, but part did hit his face and he should have one hecuva black eye this morning.

Ironically, it was the second Wright, Kansas City's second pitcher in the tenth, walked Shopay after the Orioles had loaded the with no outs on a double by Brooks Robinson and walks to Bobby Grich and Boog Powell. Ia other action, the Chicago White Sox trimmed the Indians, 4-3; the Yankees stopped the Angels, 7 3 and the Brewers turned back Minnesota, 5-4. Chicago struck for three runs in the seventh inning on a two-run homer by Rick Reichardt and a solo shot by Ed Spiezio to beat Cleveland. The long ball turned the game around against Dick time a Red Sox pitcher (and a Milwaukee refugee at that) has hit Bando in the head this year. Lew Krausse hit him May 13.

The Oakland fans were out for blood because of a Jim Lonborg-Blue Moon Odom beanball duel Sunday, but all Hor-len did was make a symbolic gesture in the third by throwing a pitch two feet over Pattin's head. Of course, that means he threw the pitch six feet off the ground. Unfortunately, Dick Williams has not been in good humor, so he didn't enjoy Pattin's performance. "What can I say," he mumbled. "There isn't much you can do with one hit in the ninth inning." Two of the best young lefthanders in the league go against each other tonight at 9 (EST) as John Curtis faces Dave Hamilton.

Both are 5-3. What can Curtis do to top Pattin? "I'll have to sleep on that one," said Duffield. The Tommy Harper Fan Club was in attendance, but Harper sat out the game. His hamstring pull is still bothering him, so Rick Miller took his place. Danny Cater, who sunk below .200 before a seventh-inning single, made a spectacular catch of a foul fly, racing way down the right field line (there's enough room to stick Rhode Island out there) to grab it over the shoulder.

It brought one Oakland writer in to talk to him while everyone else circled Pattin. "If anyone can make a story out of him," said Gary Peters, "He's the most creative writer in the American League." Fischer concedes to Spassky Nikolai Krogius, sent their world champion to sleep and then spent the night and the morning hours Associated Press BALTIMORE Their manager banished after a tantrum, the Baltimore Orioles calmly walked to a tenth-inning victory over the Kansas City Royals last night. With the bases loaded, Kansas City reliever Ken Wright walked Baltimore's Tom Shopay in the tenth to force in the winning run and snap a five-game Orioles losing skid, 2-1. The Orioles, however, remain a game behind American League East-leading Detroit, which defeated Texas, 6-5. Baltimore manager Earl Weaver, after kicking dirt at umpire Lou Dimuro, was ousted in the ninth.

Still fuming afterward, Weaver claimed Dimuro had promised: "This is going to cost you money." Weaver asserted he would never pay any penalty that might be levied by league president Joe Cronin. Weaver blew up when the first base arbiter thumbed out Don Baylor on a photo finish at the bag following a chopper to shortstop Freddie Patek.

Most experts assembled here seemed to agree that Spassky has a chance to win, while Fischer should be happy if he salvages a draw. But nobody has come up with an explanation why the American chess genius went straight into what appeared to be a Russian trap. "He took a chance to win a chance," said Danish grandmaster Jens Ene-veoldsen. "We will never know until Fischer tells us if he does," said another international grandmaster. Fischer obviously was displeased with his game.

After the adjournment he angrily demanded a meeting with the Icelandic organizers to complain against what he described as the noisy audience. Some 3000 Icelanders and foreign chess enthusiasts had packed into the Lag-ardur Hall for the opening thriller. But most knowl-edgable observers said they felt the audience was more quiet than is normal at top chess games. The Icelanders rejected Fischer's demand and told him it is up to the official referee, Lothar Schmid of West Germany, to run the game from now on.

While he was gone, Spassky calmly made his next move and then strolled around the playing area waiting to see what Fischer would do. Fischer earlier protested televising of the first game, saying the cameras disturbed him even though it was closed circuit television. The game took a sudden turn in Spassky's favor just before adjournment when Fischer took a chance and lost. In that moment, soft-spoken and mild-mannered Boris Spassky proved why he is the world champion in the noblest of games.
