Page 2-D SAN ANTONIO June 22 1977 Dodgers Continued from page ID newcomer Bobby Brown, who made his professional debut in right field. The only Amarillo run scored in the second after Biggerstaff retired the first five batters in a row. Rod Leisle walked with two out, moved to second on a passed ball, and scored on a single to left by Tony Castillo. Castillo was later ejected from the game in the seventh after arguing a by call home plate umpire Ed Koors. Biggerstaff had only two three-up- and-three-down innings in the game.

He pitched his way out of a jam in the fourth when Amarillo put runners at second and third. The Gold Sox had runners at first and second with one out in the seventh and failed to score and left a runner at third in the eighth. DODGER DOPE: The Dodgers have sent pitcher Dave Patterson to Lodi and Mitch Bobinger has moved to Cordoba of the Mexican League to I make room for newcomers Bob Welch and Joe Beckwith. Welch and Beckwith will make their debuts in the starting rotation Friday and Saturday, respectively. Right-hander Doug Slocum will pitch the second game of the series Wednesday night.

Connors hushes boos pi JIMMY CONNORS at hisses Continued from page ID best strokes were applauded.

But he got only a mild ovation at the end. His injury a cracked bone in his right thumb appeared not to affect his grip on his two-handed backhand. Lewis hit a number of fine strokes and exchanged service breaks in each of the first two sets, but he was erratic. Connors got sharper as the match wore on and never looked like he was in danger of losing. Connors, who wore an orthopedic splint on his thumb, said afterward the injury did not worry him.

As for the row over the parade, Connors said: had an appointment with my doctor, and the truth. When I arrived in the dressing room the champions were going out on court. It was Rod turn to go next. I looked at him and Connors stopped and shook his head. Asked if he would apologize to the All-England Club, Connors said: a pressure question.

1 will have to sit down by myself for two minutes and think about More than 50 Wimbledon champions were invited to a lunch and to the parade. Ten were absent and sent apologies, but the club said Connors did not even reply to the invitation. John McEnroe, an 18-year-old from Douglaston, N.Y., scored the best victory, a 6-0, 7-5, 6-4 success over veteran Egyptian left-hander Ismael el Shafei. Harold Solomon, the U.S. Davis Cupper who excels on slow clay and usually skips Wimbledon, played his first match on grass in years.

It may be his last for a while. He was beaten by Steve Docherty of Portland, ranked No. 47 in the United States, 6-4, 4-6, 7-5, 7-5. Dennis Ralston, 34-year-old Bakersfield, star, edged Trey Waltke of St. Louis, 5-7, 6-4, 6-2, 9-8.

The Wimbledon fans, who are turning the clock back a lot this week, saw Ralston play exactly the same kind of tennis as when he appeared in the final here 11 years ago deft volleys, beautiful ground strokes and douMe- faults by the dozen. Miss Evert had little trouble out- stroking Miss Gerulaitis, whose older brother Vitas is seeded eighth in singles. Miss Gerulaitis was making her Wimbledon debut, and it could not have been match against the No. 1 woman player on center court, the most famous in the world. After stumbling through the first set, she gained confidence and hit some elegant strokes to win three games in a row.

But they were the only games she won. Miss Navratilova also had no trouble beating British Wightman Cupper Glynis Coles 6-3, 6-0, while Miss Wade coasted past countrywoman Jean Durie 6-2, 6-2.

Russian cagers rip Metro 7 All-Stars ATLANTA (AP) Sergei Belov pumped in 25 points to lead the Russian national team to a 123-96 victory over the Metro Seven All Stars in an exhibition basketball game TUESDAY NIGHT.

The Russians, who already have clinched the Intercontinental Cup with an 8-2 record, quickly broke away from the Metro Seven team, using 11-1 and binges to establish a 62-49 lead at halftime. The Russians, with five players in double figures, enjoyed a 16-2 surge early in the second half to take a lead and were never headed. High scorer for the Metro Seven team was Bob Miller of the University of Cincinnati, who collected 19 points. The Russians and the Metro Seven team split a pair of regular season games. The American squad, which holds a 6-3 record, could clinch second place in the competition with a victory over Belgium in a game to be plaved Wednesday night in Tallahassee, Fla.
