Ruling brings mixed emotions now

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - World recordholding hurdler Renaldo Nehemiah, who quit track to join the San Francisco 49ers, says a ruling that allows him to run again will usher in a wide-open era for track and field. Nehemiah isn't sure he’ll be part of that era, despite his apparent victory in an expensive three-year legal battle with the International Amateur Athletic Federation. “I’ve waited three years for this ruling, and now I’ve got mixed emotions about what I’ll do,” Nehemiah said. “It’s a final and binding ruling that allows me to go back to track right now if I want,” he said. “The question for me now is whether to play football and run track together or give up one for the other . ”

No strike, drug woes as baseball old timers shine

WASHINGTON (AP) - Joe DiMaggio’s idea of baseball is a simple one. “Having a good time, that’s what this God-given game is all about, not strikes or drug-testing,” said the Yankee Clipper, who was accorded the largest ovation during pre game player introductions for the fourth Cracker Jack Old Timers Baseball Classic. DiMaggio and the other former stars who took part in Monday night’s game, won by the National League 7-3, enjoyed talking about their playing days, but a few cast their attention on the strike threat facing the modern game “If there is going to be a strike, it will be a long, tough one,” said Hank Aaron, baseball’s all-time home run king. Willie Stargell, a recent retiree after two decades with the Pittsburgh Pirates, sounded a note in defense of the players. “I haven’t heard anybody say they can’t afford to pay them,” Stargell said. Sandy Koufax, one of 20 Hall of Famers participating in the game, recalled an earlier, two-man strike that he and team-

sen, Travis Heavin, Michael Brown and Mike Clark. Coaches are (back, from left) Charles Mays, John Robbins, Paul Christiansen. Not pictured are J.D. Mowrer and Clay Vogt. (Banner-Graphic photo by Jeff Siner).

Regardless of whether Nehemiah returns to track, he believes the ruling last week by an lAAF arbitration panel opens the door for all football players to compete in track and field. Eventually, he said, pros from many sports may be able to compete in international meets and the Olympics. The National Football League has several track and field standouts, including Michael Carter and Jeff Stover of the 49ers, Willie Gault of the Chicago Bears, Ron Brown of the Los Angeles Rams, and Mark Duper of the Miami Dolphins. “This is a landmark decision similar to the historic (Curt) Flood ruling concerning free agency in baseball," said Nehemiah’s

mate Don Drysdale staged against the Dodgers over 20 years ago. “Now that was a very small union, two members,” Koufax said. “Just a couple of friends who said ‘let’s see what happens.’ It wasn’t about money, but self-respect. In those days, money wasn’t much of an issue. You either signed a contract or went home.” Aaron, Bill Mazeroski, Joe Torre and Tommy Davis slugged homers for the National League, which won for the third time in four games. Jim Lemon, who played in Washington before the Senators moved to Minnesota, had the only homer for the American League. “You come out so that the fans can see you do it one more time. It gives them one more thrill,” said Aaron, who drilled an Early Wynn pitch over the fence in the first inning for a 2-1 NL lead. “The pitch was a fastball about the same speed my bat was going through the strike zone.” “With all the homers I gave up in my career, I’m not going to be embarrassed about one more,” he said.

Generals take wrong 'Lane' in USFL playoffs EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) - The New Jersey Generals have a history of making all the wrong moves with Garcia Lane of the Baltimore Stars. The opening round of the United States Football League playoffs was no exception. Lane set a playoff record by returning one punt 91 yards for a touchdown. And he set up another touchdown with another long punt return as the defending champion Stars edged New Jersey 20-17, eliminating the Generals from the playoffs for the second straight year. Baltimore, 11-7-1, will now meet the Stallions, 14-5, in Birmingham on Sunday in the semifinals. New Jersey ended its season at 11-8, losing its final three games. “I have always taken it on myself to give it that little extra when we play New Jersey,” said Lane. “They drafted me and they had my rights, but they traded me to the Stars for a good player, Lawrence Taylor.” The trade gave the Generals the rights to Taylor of the New York Giants of the National Football League. New Jersey eventually signed Taylor to a future contract, but the player bought his way out of die deal It’s probably a deal the Generals wished they never made.

attorney, Ron Stanko. However, a spokesman for The Ahletics Congress, governing body of track and field in the United States, said he understood the lAAF council must still approve the ruling. A three-man panel of the lAAF, world sanctioning group for track and field, decided June 25 in Nehemiah’s favor on his challenge of lAAF Rule 53 (v), according to Ollan Cassell, TAC’s executive director. The rule states that the lAAF Council can declare eligible an athlete who competes as a professional in one sport, providing the practice of that sport is of no direct help for any track and field event.

Lafayette teen hurler switch pitcher LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) - What does a baseball coach do when his pitcher’s arm tires? Simple call timeout, toss him another glove and tell him to throw with his other arm. At least that’s what they do at Central Catholic High School when sophomore hurler Steve Butz is on the mound. Butz can throw fastballs, curveballs and forkballs with his right and left arm. He plays outfield and first base left-handed and all other infield positions right-handed. “Say I’m pitching, and my arm gets tired,” Butz, 15, said. “I always have my other arm. It’s just like have a whole other person there to pitch. “I personally like pitching lefthanded better. I throw harder lefthanded, but I have more control righthanded. I can place the ball a lot better.” Butz has two theories about how he started throwing with both hands. He’s not too sure about one that when he threw rocks as a youngster, his three older brothers made him throw with both hands. Butz played mostly junior varsity as a freshman this past spring, seeing five innings of varsity work. This summer he is playing with Central Catholic’s summer recreation varsity and junior varsity squads and is 2-0 with a save. Terry Thompson, Central Catholic’s varsity coach, said: “What’s amazing is he’s very fluid both ways. Some kids can do it and are awkward. “I think it’s a great weapon. We don’t have to make pitching changes” Butz has had problems with umpires who refuse to give him warm-up pitches if he switches in the middle of an inning. They say he is not a new pitcher; replacement pitchers are allowed eight warm-up pitches. “Some umpires will say, ‘Hey, he can’t warm up. It’s the same person,’ ” Butz said. “The coach will say, ‘He’s got to loosen up his arm.’ I don’t think there’s anything stated in the rule book about it.”
