take its second in a row from the Dodgers The Dodger-conquerors scored five runs in the fourth inning to shell Bill Singer from the mound while Mari-chat reached the 20-game plateau for the sixth time in his National League career Lacking his usual immaculate control and command of his assortment of pitches Juan managed to survive a determined Dodger attack -and win his 14th game at Henderson popped out Jack Hiatt drew a walk to load the bases Lanier then cracked the fist pitch off Singer into center field for a pair of runs to knot the count at 2-2 Marichal forced Lanier at second but a hard slide by the Giant shortstop broke up the potential double play Tito Fuentes singles scoring Hiatt while pitching to Ron Hunt Singer wild pitched on his first attempt and Marichal counted Another wild pitch and Fuentes went to third Eventually Hunt was hit by a pitch and that was all for Singer Pinch hitter Willie Mays greeted Pete Mikkel sen with a solid tap to left field to bring in Fuentes with the fifth run of the inning Dodgers Score Marichal who suffered an injury to his left knee in the first inning yielded his second run in 46 innings at Candlestick Park when the Dodgers produced a tally in the second Willie Crawford led off with a single Juan retired the next two hitters but his former batterymate Tom Haller slashed a hit to right scoring Crawford Three Dodger hits in the fourth with Jim Lefebdre delivering the key single gave the Dodgers a 2-0 lead before the Giant eruption In the fifth Ted Sizemore got an infield single Davis lined a homer over the right field screen on a 12 pitch to draw the Dodgers uncomfortably close at 54 It was Willie's 10th homer of the year In the seventh Marichal walked Sizemore then retired the side In the eighth Juan walked Len Gabrielsen and Von Joshua was sent in to run Lefebvre punched a liner to right but Haller popped weakly to short In the ninth Sizemore doubled to right center but Davis grounded to hunt at second See Page E3 Col 5 Candlestick against only a single loss It was his 10th straight complete game against Los Angeles and gave him an 18-1 mark in battles with the Dodgers on his home field Coincidentally it was a Hal Lanier single which tied the game for Marichal in the fourth when the Giants amassed all their runs It was the third straight time Lanier has either won or tied a game for Juan in the current home stand Big 4th Inning Willie Mc Covey led off the fourth with a seeing-eye single through the middle Bobby Bonds ripped a double into left field and Mc-Covey raced to third Ken EtEHaris7:
