all the way on the mound, CIV
ing up only five hits and three

cent pitching perform an ce
against boys 1913 years old that
went down the drain as his

by two Brave hurlers. Wheaton

stranded, three of them In the
18th.
Dennis Teller started for the
Braves and pitched four innings
without giving up a hit or a run

ly three singles az he struck out
13, but got into trouble now and
then by issuing six free passes.
New York threatened In the
third when a walk and q single
by Martin Hirsch put runners
on second and third with none
out. Pelicano bore down to fan
Ken Harmon, took Larry Mele's
tap back to the mound, and got
out Of the inning by tanning
Denny Hofer.
Scott Morgan got Wheaton's
first hit in the fifth and AL Re.
