NORTHWEST HERALD Section A Saturday, August 31. 1985 Page 13 Sports Cubs succumb to dose of fine Wine By Kent McDill UPI sports writer CHICAGO (UPI) - The Atlanta Braves raised their record to 5-0 under new manager Bobby Wine Friday with an 8-1 victory over the Chicago Cubs. Terry Harper and Bob Horner each managed to knock balls out of Wrigley Field despite a 12-mph wind blowing in, and Atlanta rookie pitcher Joe Johnson kept the Cubs in the park while giving up 11 hits in a complete-game performance. "The wind helped us a little bit today," said Wine, who replaced Eddie Haas as manager Monday. "I told him (Johnson) if they get the ball in the high wind it's going to blow it back. I'm sure that's not exactly what he wanted to do (give up 11 hits) but he did his job when he had to." The two swings by Chicago that would have gone out on another day were by Ryne Sandberg in the fifth and Jody Davis in the ninth. Sand- berg's ended up as a run-scoring double that pulled Chicago to within two runs" at 3-1. Harper hit a three-run home run in the fourth inning and Horner had a solo homer in the sixth.

Connors hammers out U.S. Open victory By Martin Lader UPI sports writer NEW YORK (UPI) -- Jimmy Connors, a firm believer he can win the U.S. Open for a sixth time, pounded out a, 6-3, 6-4, 6-2, second-round victory over Hank Pfister Friday before a fierce rainstorm • washed out late matches and caused several injuries. A small tornado passed close by the National Tennis Center late in the afternoon, shaking the foundations of the stadium and creating extensive damage. Among the matches affected by the storm were second-round contests involving second seeds Ivan Lendl and Martina Navratilova. All was peaceful when Connors took the ,court early in the day, and despite carefully droppedllints in recent months that his career is nearing an-end, his game was most impressive. Acknowledging that most observers have wr him off as a title threat, he answered back,! everybody wants to bury me, make me a tombst Just don't put it on me yet." Connors, who has made it into the semifinals of every Open since 1974. never was in trouble against the hard-serving Pfister, and swept through the final s'x games to set up a third-round meeting with Frenchman Thierry Tulasne. "I'm out there just trying to grind it out and do the best I can, win some tournaments and earn a living for myself and my family," said ConnorS, who celebrates his 33rd birthday next Monday. "I don't really worry about what people say about my age, or that this guy is going to beat me, or that this guy is better than me. I'm out there trying to prove I'm playing the game as well as I can and trying to win tournaments.
