Yankees take Series opener with old family recipe

NEW YORK (AP) Home run thunder and defensive brilliance, a familiar recipe they’ve used before, have given the New York Yankees the jump on the Los Angeles Dodgers in baseball’s 78th World Series, The thunder belonged to Bob Watson and the defense was provided by infielders Graig Nettles and Willie Randolph. Together, they proved too much for the Dodgers to cope with in the opening game of the battle for baseball's world championship. Watson became the 17th player in history to hit a homer in his first Series at-bat, drilling a three-run shot in the first inning. Nettles turned in two outstanding plays at third base and Randolph had a couple at second, shortcircuiting the Los Angeles attack in New York's 5-3 victory Tuesday night. And some less than glowing play by the Dodgers made the National League champions look shoddy by comparison. Bob Lemon, the philosophical man who manages the Yankees, remembers how Nettles' glove torpedoed the Dodgers in 1978, the last time these two teams met in the fall classic. “You’d think," he noted, "they'd learn not to hit the ball down there.’’ They keep trying him, though. Nettles set the defensive tone for the game with a diving stop on leadoff batter Davey Lopes' shot down the third base line in the first inning. Right away, Yankee pitcher Ron Guidry knew it would be a good night. "If the ball's got to be hit somewhere,” Guidry said, “I'd rather it be hit to him.” The next time the Dodgers came to the plate, they were three runs behind, thanks to Watson. With one out in the bottom of the first, Jerry Mumphrey singled. After Dave Winfield struck out, Lou Piniella hit a ground rule double to right. That brought up

Eagles win in numbers NEW MARKET-South Putnam High School s girls swimming team found itself in the unusual position of out numbering its opponents during a Tuesday night meet and scored a victory over North Putnam and host Southmont. The Eagles tallied 114 points, North Putnam 80 and Southmont 63. SOUTH PUTNAM led from the opening event, the 200-yard medley relay, taking first place in 2:26.02 with Stephanie Holsapple, Christy Schlueter, Natalie McConahay and Kandi Arnold and also fourth place, the Eagles c-utscored the Mounties and Cougars 20-10-8 in 'iie event. “That’s depth beca ise they didn’t have enough swimmers for another relay team,” South coach Joe Condon said. Kandi Arnold, showing some of the form that took her to the state meet in the 100-yard freestyle as a freshman, won two individual firsts. The senior won the 50-yard freestyle in 28.14 seconds, one of the best times in that event among county teams and took the 100-yard breaststroke in 1:28.05. LOU ANN WHITE, Natalie McConahay. Tina Bridgewater and Stephanie Holsapple accounted for the other four individual firsts. White won the 200-yard freestyle before finishing third in the 100-free. McConahay won the 100-yard butterfly in 1:21.71. Bridgewater took the 100-yard freestyle and finished third in the 200-yard IM. Holsapple, a freshman, won the 100-yard backstroke and finished second in the 200-yard IM, as the Eagles took second and third places in that event. 280-medley relay-2:26.02, South Putnam i Holsapple.

Clovers beat Cubs in two

By STEVE FIELDS Banner-Graphic Sports Editor CLOVERDALE-The defending Greencastle sectional champion Cloverdale Clovers pronounced themselves ready, willing and able to defend that title with a 15-0, 15-9 thrashing of the Greencastle Tiger Cubs in a West Central Conference High School volleyball match Tuesday night. CLOVERDALE dominated the entire evening of volleyball, winning the junior varsity match 15-0, 15-3, the Clovers sent the Cubs home in less than 90minutes, despite a second game five-minute injury delay. Junior Vonda Hughes hyperventilated during the second game of the match. Coach Terri McKee, Hughes’

Watson, who suspected that with first base open, Dodger Manager Tommy Lasorda might not let left-hander Jerry Reuss pitch to him. Especially with Nettles, a left-handed batter, on deck. “In that situation, in the first inning, I’m not going to put him on to get to a left-handed hitter like Nettles, who may hit the ball out with that short porch," said Lasorda. So, Watson hit one out instead. “My knees were shaking and there were butterflies like I dreamed there would be,” said Watson as he stepped to the plate for his first World Series swing after 17 years as a professional baseball player. “I can attest I was nervous. " The count went to 1-2 and then Watson drilled a shot to the opposite field, dropping it over the fence about 375 feet from home plate. "It was a fastball away and he just hit it to the best part of the park,” said Reuss. That, said Watson, was intentional. “I noticed in batting practice that the ball wasn’t carrying to left center," he said. I decided I would look for a pitch to hit the other way ." Armed with the quick lead, Guidry had an easier task. Anytime you get a couple of runs in the first inning, you don’t have to be so fine,” Guidry said. “You can just make them hit the ball. I don't like to nip and tuck when I’ve got a lead like that The Yankees got Guidry another run in the third when Mumphrey singled, stole second and scored on Piniella’s second hit. That finished Reuss, with Bobby Castillo taking over. In the fourth. New York made it 5-0, courtesy of Castillo, who walked four batters, the last three of them consecutively with two out. Now the Dodgers were faced with a major job of playing cat-ch-up baseball. The glovework of Nettles and Randolph did not make the task any easier.

cousin, noted that was when Greencastle lost the only momentum it built during the entire evening and the only real challenge the Cubs made to the Clovers. Jill Swearingen, who was the primary power source to Cloverdale’s 11th win in 17 matches, served seven consecutive points to open the match foi Cloverdale Along with serving those seven points the senior spiked three in the opening game. GREENCASTLE got out to a 3-0 lead on Tammi Sutherlin’s serve, with a Sandy Fox spike and Susan Whaley drilled a service ace. Tracy Receveur countered for the Clovers, tying the game 3-3 on a side out and two service aces.

Tiger Sharks lose meet

Greencastle High School’s three-meet winning streak came to an end Monday night when Terre Haute South, picked as the strongest team in the Bloomington sectional, defeated the Tiger Sharks 100-75 at McAnally Center. “We swam really well,” coach Paul Bretscher said of the Sharks’ effort. GREENCASTLE’S streak started with a win over North Putnam, followed by victories over West Vigo (121-40) and North Montgomery (99‘/2-72V2). For seniors Teresa Paullus, Lisa Hanlon and Missy Wainman Monday was the last home appearance as the final three meets with Brownsburg, South Vermillion and the finale at

win the match though, defeating Greencastle in two games and now stands 11 -6 for the season with one remaining match before the sectional. (Banner-Graphic photo by Steve Fields).

The Cubs moved back up by a 6-3 margin on Fox’s serve, but Laura Roach came on to put the Clovers back in front. It was tied 7-7 after LaChelle Wells’ lone point of the evening. At that point Cloverdale assumed the lead for good with Bev Riley serving and a spike and dink by Swearingen. CLOVERDALE went ahead 11-8 and appeared to have things under control before Sutherlin, also a cousin to Hughes, took service. Sutherlin’s ace narrowed the margin to 11-9 and the official ordered a replay when Hughes was injured in the middle of the next point. Who else but Swearingen took control of the service after Sutherlin’s service fault. The

South Putnam are all on the road. The three seniors gave those in attendance a real show, two school records and a one-two finish. Paullus, who has set the diving record repeatedly over the last two years, set it again Monday night with a 230.30 score and Wainman finished second with a 170.15, one of her best career performances. HANLON, WHO already held the school record in the 100-yard butterfly, the 200-yard IM and the 100-yard backstroke, broke her own record in the 100-fly and joined up with Leah Schoenfeld, Karla Hanson and Polly Bergen for a record 400-yard freestyle relay record Hanlon clocked a 1:07.31 in

In the fifth, Randolph made a tough short-hop stop on Rick Monday and threw him out. It saved a run because the next batter, Steve Yeager, reached Guidry for a home run. “I got a good jump on it,” said Randolph. “The timing was right and I had the good hands to make that play. The ball was knuckling and sinking but with my good range, I could stand up and make that play. I’ve made that play before.” In the seventh, with the score still 5-1, Ron Cey opened with a shot into the left field corner. He tried to stretch the hit into a double and Winfield cut him down. Lasorda wasn’t thrilled with that development. “You can’t get thrown out with nobody out when you’re down 5-1,” the Dodger manager said. That would be the last chance Los Angeles would get at Guidry. When he came into the dugout after the inning, Lemon was waiting. “He said, ‘Good job. Take a shower,’ ” Guidry said. “I didn’t get a chance to say anything You don’t argue with the manager.” It was a familiar pattern. With flame-throwing Ron Davis and Rich Gossage waiting in the bullpen, complete games are rare for the Yankees “I have no qualms about being a seven-inning pitcher, ” said Guidry. “With Davis and Gossage out there two guys who can throw harder than you you let them carry you through.” Davis got the call but had trouble with his control and walked the first two Dodgers in the eighth. Gossage came in and set the stage for the play of the game. After pinch hitter Jay Johnstone singled for one run, Dusty Baker delivered a sacrifice fly, making it 5-3. That brought up Steve Garvey, who smashed a 3-1 pitch on a line toward the left field corner. Nettles made a corkscrew, back-handed grab that

righthanded senior served the final four points of the match. Cloverdale attempted only 18 spikes during the match, but got 16 over the net and had six unreturned for points. GREENCASTLE attempted 17 spikes on the night, put 14 over and had four go unreturned for points. Swearingen paced the service scoring with 11 points. Roach had seven, Receveur six, Bev Riley and Vonda Hughes two each, Dawn Ferguson and Rhonda Hughes each scored one. Sandy Fox and Tammi Sutherlin paced the Tiger Cub scoring wiih three points each, followed by Marcia Spencer, LaChelle Wells and Susan Whaley scored one each.

bordered on the miraculous. The rally was over. “A play like that takes the steam out of them,” said Nettles. “You can sense the letdown on the other team’s bench 1 o hit the ball so hard and get nothing out of it. Garvey was hardly surprised at the play. “I just hit it as hard as I could,” he said. “I thought if I hit it with a little less velocity, it would have gone by him He’s been making that kind of play for years, so there really isn’t much can do about it.” , , Nettles was not guarding the line on Garvey and that made the stab even harder. “I was playing the situation," the veteran third baseman said. “Goose was behind on the count and I wasn’t really protecting the line. Garvey can pull anybody." Nettles’ play was all the help Gossage needed. He retired the next four batters easily to wrap up the first-game victory Afterward, Lasorda was still marveling over the Y "kee defense. “Between Randolph and Nettles, they made six great plays out there,” he said. “That guy (Nettles) is amazing. Does he do that all the time? I get sick to my stomach seeing him make those plays all the time. He must go to bed hoping and praying he can kill us with his glove.” The Dodgers are down, but this team has been playing comeback throughout the post season. They lost the first two games to Houston before sweeping three straight to win the NL West Division playoff. Then had to win two straight in Montreal to take the league title. So Lasorda viewed Tuesday night’s game as little more than a momentary setback “Heck, we were down 0-2 in a five-game series and now we’re only down one game in the best of seven,” he said. “All it means is that we lost the first game.
