By JOE REICHLE1t Associated Press Sports Writer

Although the New York Giants are the surprise team of the major leagues. there is no secret why Mel Otis gang is at the top of the Ma tional League today.
 The answer lies in their big, boom- ing home run bats. It has been the four base blow, more than anything else, that has been directly re- sponsible for a large majority of their victories.
 In 39 games of which they've won 23, the slugging men of Ott, led by Johnny Mize, the majors leading home hitter, have walloped 48 four baggers.
 NIize Ahead of Ruth
 Mixes IA home runs to date put him two days ahead of Babe Ruth'S record breaking pace of so home runs in 1927
 The Giants hit three circuit smashes at the Polo Grounds last night to whip the Chicago Cubs 8-3 and take over sole possession of first place. The defeat dropped the Cubs into second place, one game behind and only three percentage points ahead of the Brooklyn Dodg- CTS.

 Wrigley Field, the place they call home, is a heavenly hangout, the Les Angeles Angels claim. But if the San Diego Padres never see the joint again, it will still be too soon.
 The leading Angels hit three bases loaded homers yester- day in their native habitat to sink the Padres twice, 13-9 and 40, and sweep the entire series, seven games to zero.
 The twin win moved Les Angeles two full games ahead of the run ner-up Oakland and three in front oi third-plact San Francisco, who divided with Portland and Sacra- mento.
 The Oaks series-edged the Beav- CTS, four games to three, by win ming the finale, 3-1, after Portland won the opener, 6-3. San Francisco wound up with a similar margin over the Sacs, taking the closer, 8-3, after losing, 7-6.
 Seattle's yeasty Rainiers rose from cellar to a seventh-place tie with San Diego by walloping Holly wood twice, GA, 3-2. It gave Seattle the series, 4-3.
 The Angel barrage brought to l2 their roundtrip production for the Padre series, and gave them total of 76 homers in 75 games
 Seattle's Lou Novikoff made it a three-way tie for homer honors with Angeled Sauer and Padre Max West by smacking his 18th and l4th against the Stars. He drove in four runs in the first game, and his second circuit smash was the win ming tally in the afterpiece, in which Tom Refs allowed the Stars only two hits.
 Bill Ramsey's ninth inning over the-fencer brought the Sacs home ahead in the opener, but the Solons then bowed before the Seals Bob Chesnes, in the nightcap. The scores were 7-3 and 6-2.
