The 6-5 junior also pulled down 17 rebounds. By OWEN DAVIS of The Daily Tar Heel Staff Davids Lemonds is one of those young baseball pitchers that always brings out a crew o t eagle-eyed professional scouts when he takes the mound. The scouts sit behind the batting screen in their portable chairs and write down five figured numbers which they hope will entice Lemonds to sign with their club. But Lemonds belongs to Carolina for now, and the Tar Heels expect him to fill the large shoes left by Garry Hill, who couldn't resist the pro fessionals' offers and signed for $50,000 after his sophomore season last summer. Lemonds is a sophomore lefthander who was drafted by the San Francisco Giants two years ago. Since then he has established himself further as one of the top teenage hurlers in the nation. Last summer he pitched in the fast Basin League in Pier re, S.C., against other college players and recorded a 10-2 won-loss mark, striking out 140 batters in 105 innings. Then he joined a semi-pro team in Boulder, Colo., and won once and saved the final game as the Boulder club won the national semi-pro cham ,pionship Even so, Lemonds couldn't make his high school starting rotation at Charlotte's Gar ringer High until his senior season. "We had Hill on that team and it was bard to get in," he said. "But I pitched a lot in the summers in American Legion and Colt Leagues." Lemonds joins a pitching staff which lost two top starters to the pros. "It's hard to say you're going to come in and take over," he said. "We have a lot of good guys who have college experience. "Everybody will have to car ry the load. We won't have a stronghorse like Hill was last year." Lemonds likes to pitch every four days. "My control is better if I can money," he said. "That sounds bad, but you only get to play so long. Every kid growing up wants to play pro ball and I want to give it a try if I get the opportunity. . "It all depends on what kind of year I have and the ofler." His experience last summer gave him a view of the life of a professional. "We played almost every day all summer and traveled a good bit,V Lemonds said. "It was like a close-knit minor league system. "We had to have jobs so we wouldn't be classified as pro fessionals. I had a job with the highway department but I only worked when I had the time. It wasn't a real trying job." Lemonds' boyhood idol was Willie Mays, wiio plays for the same Giant team thit drafted him. "I always dreamed about playing against Mays," he said. '"It was coincidental that I was drafted by the Giants." But by more than coin cidence, it could be that Lemonds will be Mays team mate before the Say-Hey Kid hangs up his spikes. go out every fourth day," he T. n i ytr f diotsT T-fnlTf Carolina Stickmen Meet doubleheaders, I can depend more on throwing hard for those seven innings instead of going to my curve. "My ball naturally moves. It tails down and in on a lef thanded batter and away from a righthander." Lemonds has been a team mate of UNC catcher Skip Hull for several years. "I've pitched to Skip since I was 14," he said. "When you pitch to someone so long, you get to know them and begin to think like them. You can compare a catcher to a quarterback. He calls the game and he's kind of in charge of everything." Lemonds doesn't shy away from the fact that he may sign a professional contract in the coming year.
