Comment On Sports
By PETE FBITCHIE
Washington, D- C:? The Ma
jor League season is still young
but a few clnbs have already
shown themselves stronger,
comparing them to last year.
One of them In the American
Lengue which- is surprisingly
improved is Kansas City.
Last year, and for several
years, the Kansas City A's had
power but were lacking in
pitching. In his first year wit;i
the Athletics, new manager Ed
die Lopat has done something
about this.
The A's started off as usuu,
losing to the Yankees. They
have been Yankee cousins for
years. But then the script chang
ed. They came up with great
pitching in game after game.
They won close contests in the
late Innings with tight pitching
and the timely run.
Will they be the Twins o;
Angels of 1063? Could be.
Meanwhile the St. Louis Card
inals in the National were
obviously an improved team.
Few reporters gave the Cards
a chance for the flag in the
pre-season calculations.

Dodger*, the team everyone

The Dodgers also have teen
their hurlers begin to develop
ailments. They will need all
their pitchers if they win the
1983 flag.
The Cincinnati Reds didn't
get off fast ? they seldom do ?
and are yet to prove they're in
the fight this year. The improv
ed Milwaukee Braves are in it,
however, and that old pappy
guy, Warren Spahn, keeps on
rolling along.
Back in the American, the
Minnesota Twins are having
trouble living up to their 1962
speed. Unieaa tUrmm Kila
brew is won back It farm, they
many find the rotnf tough thia
year. The Baltimore Orioles are
vastly improved. The Detroit
Tiger* are having trouble hit
ting. The club picked to give
the Yankees the most trouble
is getting good pitching but the
expected hitting isn't yet there.
New York might be in (or
trouble if Stan Williams doesn't
do better and it Whitey Ford
