at Baltimore Milwa at Minn Texas at Detroit Boston at Oakland New York at Calif at 8:15 at 7:30 By United Press International The Pittsburgh Pirates routed Denny MeLain with an early home run barrage Sunday and went on to defeat the Atlanta Braves 7.4. Willie Stargell led off the second inning with his 17th homer of the season and Bob Robertson hit a two-run homer that same inning. When Al Oliver hit a three-run homer in the third, the Pirates had a 6-0 lead and that was it for McLain, who made his Atlanta debut last Tuesday in a 3-3 tie with Chicago. The Pirates, division-leaders in the National League East, handed McLain his first National League defeat. McLain was obtained by the Braves from the Oakland Athletics' Birmingham far club in the Southern League two weeks ago.

McLain, a colorful righthander.was shelled for six earned runs and five hits in the 2 1-3 innings he worked. Hank Aaron slammed his 657th career homer and a runscoring double for the Braves. In other National League action, Los Angeles blanked New York, 2-0, Chicago swept a doubleheader from Cincinnati, 5-0 and 10-5, Houston ripped St. Louis, 12-6, San Francisco defeated Montreal, 5-1, and San Diego edged Philadelphia, 5-4. Carmen Fanzone drove in five runs with a double and a home run and Tommy Davis added three more with a pair of singles as the Cubs won the second game of a doubleheader with Cincinnati after Ferguson Jenkins pitched a shutout in the Bobby Fischer's chair arrives REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPI) --The Boris Spassky-Bobby Fischer world chess match can begin--Fischer's favorite chair has arrived.

The swivel chair in metal and black leather was flown from New York to Iceland and put on the stage in the Reykjavik chess hall Sunday. Spassky's Russian advisers arrived shortly after the much talked about chair and studied it suspiciously. Then they left without comment. Now the Icelandic organizers face a new problem: Where to find a similar chair in Iceland? "It would look better if both Spassky and Fischer had the same chairs," said Gudmundur Thorarinsson, president of the Icelandic Chess Federation. Fischer took one look at the dozen different chairs the Icelanders had assembled from Reykjavik's furniture stores the other day, sat down in some of them and then gave his verdict: "Fly in my own chair." Spassky, the 35-year-old world champion, did not seem to worry much about details of the $250,000 match.

Before leaving for a salmon fishing tour of northern Iceland the defending champion said, "I am not going to argue about chairs, chess boards and sets. I will leave that to Bobby. It makes no difference to me." After lengthy and dramatic preludes, both Fischer and Spassky appeared ready to start the first of their 24 games Tuesday. "Bobby is relaxed and ready. We will play Tuesday unless Spassky is ill," said Fred Cramer, vice president of the U.S.

Chess Federation. But the players still have to inspect and approve the facilities in the hall, where the organizers expect 3,000 fans paying $5 each to be on hand Gudmundur Arnlaugsson, deputy referee of the match, spent all day Sunday polishing off the fine details. He tested several chess boards and finally settled for one made in Iceland specially for the match. It has been put together from Icelandic stones. Arnlaugsson, who had to take over when the chief referee Lothar Schmid of Germany flew home Saturday, also has a choice of five or six different chess sets of various sizes.

Schmid said he would return Thursday after visiting his son, who was injured in a traffic accident. opener. Claude Osteen pitched a six-hit shutout as the Dodgers defeated New York. Lee Lacey, Los Angeles' rookie second baseman, led the Dodger attack against Tom Seaver with three hits, scoring one run and driving in another run. Three St.

Louis errors in the last three innings opened the door to five unearned runs and enabled Houston to defeat the Cardinals. Catcher Ted Simmons' throwing error in the seventh enabled pinch-runner Jimmy Stewart to score the eventual winning run and the Astros pushed across four more unearned runs in the eighth along with Johnny Edwards' leadoff homer to break open a close game. Dave Kingman's three-run homer in the fifth inning off loser Carl Morton, carried the Giants to victory over Montreal. Bobby Bonds hit his 12th homer off Morton to lead off the game. The Padres scored three unearned runs in the third inning and Clarence Gaston drove in single runs in the fifth and seventh as San Diego defeated Philadelphia.

Allison wins Volunteer 500 BRISTOL, Tenn. (UPD--Bobby Allison of Hueytown, driving a 1972 Chevrolet, won his second straight Volunteer 500 at Bristol International Speedway Sunday, outdistancing his nearest opponent by three laps. Allison, who started from a pole position, averaged 92.735 miles per hour. He was in command from the start and earned his fourth triumph at the 12th annual 500 race. An estimated 21,000 fans watched as Chevrolet notched a third straight win here.

Allison won $6,900. Richard Petty of Randleman, N.C., hung on to finish second despite a number of problems. However, the Plymouth ace was out of contention at the halfway mark of the 500 lap event.

Nugent coach Willie McCoy said his team could have won if he had taken the full squad of 15. "We only took five girls," he said. "I didn't think the meet was going to be as big as it was." The Nugent tracksters won the 440,880 medley, and mile relays. Members of the relay teams are Barbara Grace, Velvet Townsel, Jo Ann Williams and Margaret James.

Each girl could only participateein four events.

"We didn't run in the 220, the mile, the 880 and the 80-yard low hurdles. If we had only placed in those events, we would have won the meet," said McCoy. "Normally we finish pretty good in those events, especially, the 880 and mile," he added. The Nugent Track Club will enter the Southern Amateur Athletic Union Junior Olympics Track Field Meet Saturday at 11 a.m. in Meridian.

The meet will consist of three divisions, Bantam (girls, ages 910), Midget (girls, ages 10-11) and Junior (girls, ages 12-13).

Ryan, who said he threw fast balls 70 to 80 per cent of the time, opened the game at Anaheim by walking Tommy Harper on four pitches.

He then struck out Doug Griffin before Carl Yastrzemski singled to right. Ryan proceeded to strike out the next eight men to set an American League record, whiffing the side in the second inning on nine pitches. While Ryan has boosted his record to 115, Vida Blue, last year's sensation with Oakland, is struggling along at 2-5. Mickey Lolich became the first 14-game winner in the major leagues as Detroit beat the White Sox, 4-2, in the second game of a doubleheader after Chicago had taken the opener, 5-4. The split enabled the Tigers to move into a first place tie in the East Division with the Baltimore Orioles, who dropped their fourth straight game to the Texas Royals, 3-2, in 10 innings.

Elsewhere, the Kansas City Royals swept a doubleheader from the Cleveland Indians, 6-4 and 8-5, the Oakland Athletics beat the Milwaukee Brewers, 3-1, and the New York Yankees beat the Minnesota Twins, 9-6.

Joe Rudi doubled home, two runs for Oakland and Dave Duncan delivered the other with his third homer in three days. Rich Reese tied a major league record with the third pinch-hit grand slam homer of his career, but it wasn't enough for Minnesota as the Yankees had erupted for five runs in the first two innings and picked up three more in the seventh.
