Baseball season opens with still more surprises

By The Associated Press The last thing pitchers Dave Heaverlo and Frank Pastore expected was to be heroes. In fact, neither had any idea he'd be playing baseball Wednesday. But Heaverlo picked up a save in the Seattle Mariners’ 8-6 American League victory over the Toronto Blue Jays and Pastore registered a win on a three-hit shutout, no less in the Cincinnati Reds 9-0 National League triumph over the Atlanta Braves. Wednesday, Heaverlo, a reliever with the Oakland A’s, received what he considered terrific news Charlie Finley put Heaverlo on waivers and the Mariners claimed him. “I told the people who picked me up at the airport to hurry up and get me to the ballpark,” said Heaverlo. “I thought I might be able to get into the game.” That he did as Seattle Man-

homer provided the winning runs for starter Mike Parrott while Bruce Bochte and Rodney Craig had three hits each. John Mayberry slammed a pair of home runs for Toronto but that didn’t save starter Dave Lemanczyk from being the loser. The Reds got a boost from Pastore after receiving a jolt from ace hurler Tom Seaver. The star right-hander had to beg off his opening day start due to the flu and the 23-yearold Pastore was handed the ball by Reds Manager John McNamara. “I really wasn’t surprised that I had such a good game,” said Pastore. “I expect to do well every time I go out on the mound or else I wouldn’t be here.” George Foster and Junior Kennedy helped make Pastore’s chore that much simpler. Foster knocked in four runs
