Heavyweight contender Joe Frazier wants to hold a clinic to teach baseball players how to fight. “All they do is hurt themselves instead of the other guy,” he said from his training camp. “Look at Joe Pepitone. He banged up his hands without getting a punch across. Baseball players should know about combinations as well as double plays.” Frazier said he would hold a clinic on a day when the Yankees are off.

The Giants get a game-winning grand slam from “Super Sub” Willie Mays as Houston goes to the well once too often. Facing him first as a pinch hitter in the 6th inning, with the bases loaded, one out, and the Giants down by one, Houston starter Dave Giusti gets Mays to ground one to shortstop Sonny Jackson for an inning-ending double play. Jim Ray Hart hits a game-tying solo shot in the 8th. In the 10th inning, a tiring Giusti departs in favor of Barry Latman with runners on first and second. He fans Hart, but a walk to Jim Davenport loads the bases. It is Mays’s turn to shine, which he does, in “grand” fashion. Final score: Giants 6, Astros 2.

“Clemente’s Rifle Wing Amazes Fans, Shoots Down Cardinals,” reads The Sporting News’s headline. Les Biederman adds: “The fans who take their baseball through the newspapers and via the scores on radio and television miss the thrill and excitement of watching all the skills of Roberto Clemente. It’s almost impossible to describe properly the tremendous arm and the magnetic glove possessed by the Pirate star. Ordinarily, Clemente shouldn’t have many assists because so few teams will take chances on his rifle arm. Last night, Clemente staged a dazzling show from right field against the Cardinals.” The Cards score all seven runs and gather 10 of their 14 hits in the first three frames off Woody Fryman. Clemente holds the score down by nailing two runners at the plate on miraculous assists, nailing Orlando Cepeda and Bobby Tolan at home in the first two innings innings, but Cepeda manages to outrun Clemente’s arm in scoring on a sacrifice fly by Dal Maxvill in the third, and Tim McCarver follows him home when the throw bounces away from catcher Jerry May. The Cards win, 7 – 5.
