MONDAY 14 JUNE 1993 TNI AOS 31 Sport Extra 9 Australians make powerfiil pitch for success in the big league of the University and a Western Australian Claxton Shield player, had recommended him. He then transferred to West Florida University, and did enough to prompt Detroit to draft him in June 1989. Two seasons with minor-league teams in Niagara Falls and in Fay-ettevllle. North Carolina, appeared futile when Detroit dumped him In April '91. "I looked around for another job and made about $260 in phone calls talking to teams around the States." The Padres hired him later that season.

But Ettles might not have played the sport beyond his teens if not for a broken leg he incurred while ruck-roving for Perth Football Club's under 17s. Until the injury, he bad been torn between football and baseball, which was then even more of a fringe sport. "I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't broken my leg: er and acquitted himself well not giving up a run in three of those four appearances. He has pitched one Inning (as is customary) in each game. Like his close friend and former Australian under-life teammate Graeme Lloyd who is making great strides with the Milwaukee Brewers Ettles, 26, has been assigned the difficult task of pitching in the middle and late Innings, often when the starter has been pummelled off the mound.

The Padres are easing him into his relief role and, to date, have called on blm in games that appear foregone conclusions (when they are either trailing badly or leading comfortably), even though In his last outing the Padres rallied from a 4-0 deficit to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, 5-4. "They'll give me a bit of time to get a feel for what's going on," Ettles said. JAKE NtALL, Lot Aiaaalaa, 8undy The prospect of joining the growing band of Australians in Major League Baseball was far from Mark Ettles' mind when he was summoned to his manager's office in Las Vegas on i June. Ettles had pitched poorly that afternoon in an outing for the a AAA minor-league club, and the Las Vegans lost a close game. "I thought I was getting a pep talk," Ettles recalled.

"He (the manager) said: 'Don't worry about it: you're going to San Next day, Ettles a native of Perth became the fourth Australian, and the second Australian pitcher, to play in the major leagues this season. Since bis debut for the San Diego Padres in a game against the Florida Marlins a week ago, he has played in three more games as a relief pitch that made my decision easy." he quips now. Whether Ettles returns to play for Perth next season binges on his performances for San Diego. "It's still up in the air," he said. There is little chance, though, that his friend Graeme Lloyd will soon be pitching for an Australian club.

Since bis debut in April, Lloyd, who hails from Geelong, has, in Milwaukee manager Phil Garner's words, "done a super Job" for the Brewers. Lloyd recently completed a remarkable streak of 23.2 Innings in which be did not allow an earned run. His ERA (1.67) is the lowest of the team's regular pitchers', but what has impressed manager Garner most is bis ability to dismiss batters in tense situations. "He's been in every pressure situation you can Imagine bases loaded with nobody out and he's come through." Ettles, who plays for the Perth Heat in the Australian Baseball League, owes his meteoric rise to Major League status to an injury incurred by San Diego's premier starting pitcher Bruce Hurst, which opened up a spot on the team roster. After Joining the Padres organisation in 1891 having been "fired" by the franchise that drafted him, the Detroit Tigers Ettles impressed the Padres with bis efforts as closer (pitching the ninth) in Wichita and Las Vegas, where his earned run average that all-important statistic was a more-than-respect-able 2.24.

He acknowledges that the Padres' precarious financial status and their resultant decision to bring up cheaper young talent rather than pay big bucks brought him into the big leagues sooner than expected. When he made his debut, Ettles met fellow Australian and San Diego teammate Craig Shipley, an infield utility, for the first time. Due to his promotion, there are pairs of Australians at two Major League outfits: catcher Dave Nils-son is a teammate of Lloyd's at Milwaukee, and they have already teamed up In the first all-Australian battery (pitcher-and-catcber combination). Although he is not a close friend of Shipley, Ettles says that Lloyd's success as a relief pitcher has boosted his confidence. "It's like.

If Graeme can do It I can do it. I've done it because I've wanted to. Ettles points out that "less than one per cent" of those who sign with American teams make it to what players call "the "the odds are very much against you." His first step on the road to the majors was a stint at the University of South Alabama in 1986-87 after Warren Hughes, an alumnus Elk. iJA wirfc Ettles has come a long way since his days pitching for WA in IjjjthlaxtonS tich jr I Becker happy to be back on old stamping ground 13 pni coinnse- i' 'ti -'2 f. or secomid 'I don't need anyone to tell me how to hit a forehand but I do need someone to kick me up the behind when I'm not 100 per frig title HEATHER SMITH, Sunday the Queen's Club tradition (Ids true, Michael Stich will playing off for the Wimble- men singles title in fee weeks.

Cj jkmong the uncertainties of "Wflre Agassi's health, Boris MCKers motivation levels, uoran '-'rfanlsevlc's mental strength and jMfcn the legitimacy of Pete Sam-0as' world No. 1 ranking, Stich is jjMrpving a worthy candidate for his gecond Wimbledon title, c.he grass-court tournament at Queen's has been a reliable form Hajllcator for the Wimbledon cptpmpionships, with 10 of its finalists reaching the same round at the Grand Slam event. Indeed, with its formally jacket By OUV HOOOSON, At court level, Boris Becker sounds like a steam engine. Hit and hiss, serve and volley with a huge sigh. With bis fires piled high and his engines racing, he must be like the Flying Scotsman leaving St Pancras statien.

Except that In recent months Becker has hardly ever reached full speed and the prevailing sound has been that of deflation. He Is still among the possibles to win Wimbledon, but in years gone by he was the favorite. Once Andre Agassi was trying to quantity the German's ability. "If Becker's playing great, sorry. Yoo've no chance," the Wimbledon champion said.

Then, his huge strokes and awesome lines would give him the appearance of a bully on the court He did not defeat players, he ejected them physically from his path. Unfortunately, he is great at the moment about as often as the England soccer team and the trend line running through his form Is consistently downwards. He has not won a Grand Slam tournament since September lHl.In the past two months, he has won only six matches, two wins at Queen's Club last week being part of the run. Becker Is like other players; it Is the drag of winning that he craves more than tennis. He has said he would retire If he could get no higher In the rankings than the top 20.

Alternatively he has also said he expects to add a further two Grand Slam tournaments to the five he has won since he began his collection at Wimbledon, aged 17, eight years ago. Queen's was the venue that launched Becker at the All England Club title In IMS and has a special place in his affections. The best possible preparation for Wimbledon is for me to win here," he said. "I play flat-oat. I acclimatise quickly to grass.

Two days and I feel confident on it But a match on this surface Is different and you need to play as much as yon can before yea get to Wimbledon. I just need some matches." His campaign last week was curtailed after three days with his compatriot Michael Stich beating him 6-4, 7-4. Becker was suffering and so was the German woman watching him. "Boris is German ten- ed officials graciously entertain- Ina numhAK nt tha rnun 1 t-mllu nis," she said. "It is the media that seems to have tamed against him.

If he wins, It's 'Wonderful Boris'. If he loses a couple of matches, it's 'He's too fat He's too lazy. He does not practise Even given his country's fickle perception, Becker appears bigger, particularly round the buttocks, than he did when he played what he described as "some of the best tennis of my career" at the turn of the year. Then a virus laid him low for the most of March and he has been trying to regain his best since. A misguided attempt to cram In extra tournaments to rush his fitness led to a sequence of bad results and the dismissal of his coach Gunther Bresnik.

"I had the wrong training and a bad start" Becker said. "I played five tournaments in a raw when perhaps I should have had a couple of weeks oil and I never got into fifth gear." Becker is now being guided by Eric Jelen, the former German Davis Cup player, whs also worked with him at last year's Wimbledon after another schism with a coach. "I dont need anyone to tell me how to hit a forehand but I do need someone to kick me up the behind when I'm not 1H per cent I trust Eric. There were plenty of both against Stich, although Becker seemed content Yon suspect he believes that his conqueror can hardly reach a higher plane while he has more to aim for. "I felt I got better and better," he said.

"I got more chances to break as the match wore on." Ahead lies Wimbledon where he has either won or been beaten by the eventual winner since 1987. "It's always a special tournament for me and as long as I play it will be," he said while contemplating his prospects. "A let will depend on the draw. Ideally you have a nice easy start and you want to avoid players like Goran Ivanisevic when you are in the last 16." champion Wayne Ferreira in the final later today. The South African defeated American Todd Martin 6-7, 6-3, 7-5 in the semi-finals.

Of the seeded players at Queen's, Stich has been by far the most impressive. An elegant serve-volleyer, Stich defeated fellow countryman Boris Becker before stopping the challenge of the No. 83-ranked Morgan. Stich's performances have amply demonstrated his return to tournament-winning form. In fact, he believes he Is playing even better tennis than he was two years ago, when he won the Wimbledon title.

It has been a slow climb back for SUch, who admitted that his momentous Wimbledon victory had put pressure on almost every aspect of bis life, including his tennis game. After peaking at No. 4 in the rankings in 1991, Stich slipped to 15 at the end of 1992. It was not until he won the Grand Slam Cup In Munich last December that he felt he was on the way back to a secure top 10 position. An intense, jumpy type with a propensity for arguing over line calls, Stich is not as universally admired as the quixotic Becker or the gentlemanly Stefan Edberg.

But he is slowly mellowing. Stich still questioned line calls In his Queen's semi-final but fortunately they had no effect on either Morgan's concentration or on the outcome of the match. Morgan, from the Sydney beachside suburb of Clovelly, begged to differ. The 22-year-old felt he had the match won when Stich served at 30-40. Morgan rocketed a return to Stich, which he netted, but in the meantime, the service line umpire had called a fault and then corrected himself.

The upshot was that at match point down, Stich was allowed another first serve and he duly landed an ace. "I feel unlucky," Morgan said. Mm, tit 5'i; I if- 1 by film: on the clubhouse balcony.

Brazil and Argentina (1988) and Sweden (1992). Milan, to be sure, has sufficient talent to compensate for the absentees. In soccer terms, It is like one of those old cinema extravaganzas that had a role for each and every actor in Hollywood. Nevertheless, to the fuming fan who has parted with $40 to see Gullit or Van Basten, it has been like buying a ticket to a Michael Jackson concert and getting Ernie Sigley instead.

Socceroo coach Eddie Thomson said last night he would give Adelaide City sweeper Milan Ivanovic a rematch with AC Milan in at least one of the matches, by shifting first-choice sweeper Ned Zelic into mldfield. Ivanovic, then with Red Star Belgrade, was on the losing side in a two-legged European Cup tie against Milan before be came to Australia five years ago.

Juventus heard on Wednesday that Its application to join the national league for the 1993-94 season, starting in October, had been successful.

But its poor recent form In the premier league it had not won for five weeks persisted until 24 minutes from the end of its match against Knox City. Juventus was trailing 4-1 after Greg House had scored twice for Knox and Marty Wild and Frank Bot once each. It was only then that a spirited half-time talk by coach Billy Rogers, who had reminded the players that only the worthy would be retained in the national league, started to take effect. Steve Smith, who had scored the first goat of the match in the second minute of play, struck immediately after House had stretched Knox's lead to 4-1. Sean Lane brought his season's tally to 11 by scoring in the 71st and 81st minutes, levelling the More at 4-4, and it was not until the last minute of play that teenager Matthew Lang underlined his boundless potential by scoring the winner.

Former Socceroo Andrew Zinnl, playing his first game on loan for Preston, hoisted Bulleen to the top of the ladder by scoring twice in a 4-1 victory over Albion Turk Gucu. The previous joint leaders, North Geelong and Springvale, lost to Caulfleld and St Albans respectively.
