The 12-inch softball 5. action occurred Monday night at Peterson park and King's STAFF PHOTO - WAYNE GAYLORD A New Start In Cleveland Well I'm happy to say that baseball has made a liar out of me by ending the stupid strike. Last week I said that baseball was finished until next spring, but Sunday night in Cleveland, the All Star game will initiate the second half of the season. That city will really be hopping this weekend. There won't be that much ink in the papers since the Indians hired Frank Robinson as baseball's first black manager in the mid '70's. On Saturday, the football Browns, fresh from last week's Hall of Fame game win over the Atlanta Falcons, will be playing host to the always powerful Pittsburgh Steelers. Besides the All Star game on Sunday, Roberto Duran will be slugging it out with Nino Gonzalez in a boxing match. Don't expect to find a place to stay if you don't already have a reservation. Of the three events, the All Star classic will be the most widely publicized to determine whether the 49- day layoff has tarnished the ballplayers' skills. It's been such a long time since we've seen many of the players and just as long as some of them have worked out. It will be interesting. Cleveland's Municipal Stadium, the largest in the major leagues at nearly 90,000 capacity, will be filled with jury members. Still bitter about the strike, you can expect a round of boo's when the first error is committed ortvhen a batter looks rediculous striking out on a curve ball. Fans don't easily forget. may be voted into a starting spot in the American outfield despite batting only .199. Dodger second baseman Dave Lopes may win a National start and he's likewise hitting under .200. It appears as though the owners and the players are not the only misguided ones. It is doubtful that the pitching will be anything Bullpen By Carl Moesche Selection of the starting lineups has not yet been determined. Cincinnati great Johnny Bench is in­ jured and may not play. That leaves Montreal receiver Gary Carter in the driver's seat. Many of the "regular" starters will be back, however. The American league has Rod Carew and Gfeorge Brett and the National league boasts Mike' Schmidt, Steve Garvey, and Dave Parker. And, ah yes, let's not forget Reggie. Mr. Jackson catagorized as classic. Some pitchers haven't picked up a baseball since the strike began figuring that they wouldn't have to until next season. There will probably be more walks than usual. The owners need this game to bring back the fans back to the ballparks. They have to do something to sell their product and they figure this is the best way to start. Many clubs are also p l a y i n g i n t e r l e a g u e exhibition games to stimulate interest. The Cubs 16" Sports Variety In men's 16-inch softball last week every conceivable type of finish occurred as there close games, slugfests, blowouts, and extra inning affairs. On Tuesday, Old Bridge started the evening with a slim 4-2 win over J and L. Gary Freund topped the winners with a perfect three for three performance in­ cluding two doubles and two runs scored, while Jim Althoff was right behind with two hits including a triple. Mark Bentz led J and L going two for three including a home run. Palace Bowl eeked out a 10-9 win over Murphy's Pub as Rich Linquist singled home Jim Mack with two outs in the bottom of the eighth inning. Mack along with Tom Coskey and Larry Niedert all collected three hits for Palace Bowl, while Tim Gertz and Bill Lilly had two hits each for the losers. Fox Hole Tap had little trouble with Residential Developement drubbing them 24-6. The 30-hit barrage was led by Tom Miller and Mike Peterson with five hits and Jim Yaworski, Ron Miller, and Jerry Broden with four hits each.

In the final game of the week, John's Sport Stop won a slugfest with Nancy's Tavern 14-12.

FRL 8/7 tkn THIIR. 8/13 will be playing the White Sox, the Brewers will tangle with the Braves, the A's will face the Giants, and the Cardinals are squaring off with the Royals. San Diego owner Ray Kroc is letting fans in free at the Padre's first home game. That's his way of saying "w^re sorry". The players iftoed this game too. Som<| like Jackson have to lode good because they are in the last years of their contracts and they may opt for free agency at the end of the season. Yes, Reggie is unhappy again and he wants out. But as for the fans, the world won't end if we don't see Fred Lynn or George Foster perform. Many of us have found other things to do besides watch baseball and we have survived. But I for one am glad to see baseball back. That's not to say, however, that I'll be rushing out to the ballpark. That'll take time. Many will boycott baseball for the rest of the season. But at l«Mt Cleveland will ' have It's day after all. The j All Star game may not be a . great one, but at least it's a start. Carl Moesche ONE MINUTE SPORTS QUIZ 1.
