Braves Open Season With 3-0 Victory Righthander Denny Baker hurled one-hit ball as the Decatur Braves won their season opener at Adams Central Thursday evening, downing the host team by a 3-0 score. Baker was in mid-season form, striking out 15 hitters, while walking only four, as he hurled the Braves to their victory. His bid for a no-hitter was spoiled in the sixth inning when Morningstar hit a lazy fly to the outfield that no one could get to, and fell in for a single . The Braves scored in only one Inning, the fourth, but it proved to be enough for Baker’s route-going performance. Jerry Conrad led off the fourth with a long fly to Centerfield which the Adams Central centerfielder dropped, Conrad going to second. Jim Miller then came through with a single to sore Conrad with the game’s first run. Hammond Doubles With two out. Miller scored from second on Gary Hammond’s long double to right-centerfield, and Hammond scored on a single by Gary Pettibone. Adams Central threatened in the second, fifth and sixth innings, each time getting a runner as far as third base, but each time Baker rose to the occasion to preserve his shutout.

Baseball Schedule LITTLE LEAGUE Friday— Yankees vs Senators, 6 p. m. PONY LEAGUE Friday — Cubs vs Monmouth, 7:30 p. m. White Sox Win Third Season Game Thursday The White Sox ran their season record to 3-0 and the Indians won their first game of the year, in Thursday’s Little League action at Worthman Field. The Sox rang up a 5-3 win over the Yankees, the Yanks’ first loss of the year, whUe the Indians copped their first win, 6-0, in the first game, handing the Senators their first loss. The league leaders dissolved a 2-1 deficit with a four-run fourth inning to down the Yanks behind the four-hit pitching of Pete Mayclin. Mayclin fanned eight, walked four and hit one batter. Score Foor The Sox, held to only one run by Dan Strickler through the first three innings, erupted in the fourth and held on for the victory. They scored their four runs on a single by Tony Conrad, an error, Mayclin’s double, a single by Steve Haggerty and another error. The Yanks scored once in the second and added their final run in the sixth on Mark Fletcher’s double and Jim CaU’s single. The Indians rode to victory on the strong right arm of Mike Schnepf, who was nearly perfect in limiting the Senators to only one hit. Near Perfect > Schnepf whiffed nine batters, walked four and hit one batter, in hurling his masterpiece. Jesse Mendez ruined his bid for a nohitter with a one-out double in the third .inning. . The Indians backed Schnepf with a seven-hit attack, and played errorless ball. The winners gave Schnepf all the runs he needed in the first inning, when they scored four times. Mike Terveer walked to lead off, and Schnepf singled. Catcher Doug Halberstadt followed with a double, Duane Thieme walked and Jerry Steele cracked a double. The Indians added two runs in the fifth for insurance, when Schnepf and Halberstadt walked. Thieme singled and Pat Loshe also singled.

(UPI) - Frontrunner Gay Brewer Jr. of Crystal River, Fla., counted on his hot putter to keep him rolling today in the second round of the SIOO,000 Thunderbird golf classic. “If the putter keeps goin', I will too,’’ said the 30-year-old pro whose six-under-par 33-33 — 66 Thursday gave him a one-shot lead over U. S. Open champion Gene Littler of Rancho Bernardo, Calif., and veteran Earle (Spec)' Stewart of Dallas in the year’s richest golf tournament. Brewer had eight one-putt greens and 29 •pntts in all. However, there's reason to believe that putter can cool. Gay led tHfe Memphis Open with a firstround 64 jun last week but wound up in 10th place when the paychecks were passed out ht the end 0f."72 holes. “I was on the tour for six years without winning a tournament until I changed my putting style last year,’’ said Gay. “Then I won three tournaments in five months and this is one I'd sure like to win.” Palmer Way Back But with $25,000 as the top prize, the competition in the Thunderbird is so fierce that hot pre-tourney favorite Arnold P a 1mer, the year’s top money winner, shot an opening 73 and wound up tied for 46th place. Right back of the 67 shooters were Dave Ragan and Fred Hawkins with 68 and six others at 69 — Doug Sanders, Jack Nicklaus, Dave Marr, Jactcie Burke Jr., Mason Rudolph and Frank Boynton. In the group of nine at 70 were 50-year-old Sam Snead, Jacky and Buster Cupit, Lionel Hebert and Bob Goalby. In all, 29 players cracked the 72 at the Upper Montclair Country Club.

Harper had a 71. Plays “Awful” Palmer was miserable after his 36-37—73 and said, 'Tm playing awful.” Adding to Arnie’s misery was a bogev six at the 11th where he plunked his second shot into a creek in front of the green. He also bogeyed three other holes in his scramble and only a 50-foot birdie putt at the 13th kept him from falling way out of it. Gary Player of South Africa also had a 73 and Bill Casper skidded to 75. One of the earliest casualties was former U. S. Open champion Cary Middlecoff who arrived late because of fouled - up travel connections and couldn’t warm up his ailing back properly before teeing off. Cary shot a 43 on the front nine and withdrew.
