C2 The Sun WEDNESDAY, April 5, 1989 KALEIDOSCOPE Cubbies find fans on 'South' side The smell of hot dogs and peanuts mixed with the aroma of boiled crawfish as Cubs regulars cheered their team from the Wrigley Field annex at the Milan Bar. It is 950 miles from Wrigley Field to the door of this little bar. tucked away on a side street in New Orleans, but the baseball fans that crowded irr for the Cubs' opener Tuesday feel much clos-ec to the team they pull for. "We really got behind the team in 1983. That's the year we got cable and we had our choice of Atlanta, Houston, the Rangers or the Cpbs.

We picked the Cubs. They're the perfect New Orleans team. Everybody in the bleachers having a party and Harry Caray sounds like he's from here anyway," said bartender Janet Alexander. I Sporting Cubs T-shirts, hats and visors, the regulars cheered as Rick SutclilTe took the mound for the Cubs against the Philadelphia Phillies. "This is as close as you can get to major league baseball in New Orleans, coming in here and atching the Cubs with a bunch of baseball finis.

Until we get our own team, the Cubs are New Orleans team," said Peter O'Neill. Most of the fans are long-time major league baseball fans ho have now adopted the Cubs, O'Neill said. "I lived in New England and San Francisco and still love the Red Sox and the Giants, but the Cubs are better here," he said.

You dial 0." Does He charge interest? Giants outfielder Brett Butler, a devout Mormon, seems uncomfortable talking about his three-year, $4 million contract extension: "God lent me the money." SAN BERNARDINO Behind the tenacious pitching of senior right-hander Joey Wilkinson, Cajon High School shut out Apple Valley 4-0 Tuesday to break a three-way baseball tie for first place in the San Andreas League.

San Bernardino, which also began the day tied for first, fell to Victor Valley, 8-3. Wilkinson went the distance, choking off numerous Sun Devils threats while shutting out Apple Valley on nine hits and three walks. He stranded 10 AVHS runners, including three at third base to hike his record to 4-2 and reduce his ERA to 1.50. He struck out four. Apple Valley right-hander Mike Hill (2-1) took the loss as he gave up one earned run on four hits.

Reliever Mike Wallace gave up two runs in the sixth inning. The Cowboys improve to 3-1 in the SAL and 6-4 overall. Apple Valley falls to 2-2 and 7-5. "Wilkinson did a great job for us today," said Cajon coach Bill Mierzwik. "This win really raised our confidence level.

Right now we are doing a lot better in pitching and fielding, but our bats need to start coming around for the timely hit more often." Three errors by the Sun Devils cost them two runs and the loss is Apple Valley's second straight. Sun Devils coach Gahbrielson attributed Tuesday's loss to "mental and physical errors." "I'm unhappy about the kids today," said Gahbrielson. "They were not mentally prepared coming into this game. The last two weeks we have made quite a few errors, especially at first base." Cajon scored the first and deciding run in its half of the third inning on a bases-loaded sacrifice fly by sophomore catcher Mike Proch. The Cowboys struck again in the fifth inning when senior Jeff Bees came home from third base on a fielding error by Apple Valley shortstop Travis Satterland.

Cajon padded its lead in the sixth. With runners on the corners, Wallace threw to first in an attempt to pick off Shane Chuning. Caught off the bag, Chun-ing was chased toward second base by Jason Hamilton. Meanwhile, Cameron Gerber (brother of California Angel Craig Gerber) took the opportunity to race home. Hamilton saw Gerber making the dash but the throw home was a tad late.

Chuning stole third base moments later and came home when Jason True bobbled the throw. "If we keep this up, we're going to lose (to Bar-stow) on Friday," said Gahbrielson. "Changes will be made and non-producers will be sitting the bench."
