Thanks to Ken Heintzelman, a lzs-year-old greybeard, and new- comer Clyde Vollmer, the Phils and Senators stole a lap on the Ifield yesterday in the only two games played. Heintzelman shut out the favored Boston Braves, 4-0, spoiling the 11948 National League Champions’ | pennant-raistng ceremonies. Voll- !mer came through with a ninth- .inning single that beat the Phila- delphia Athletics, 3-2. | WEATHER CHILLY | Both games on the first of the double opening programs were | played under poor weather condi- itions. As a result the crowds suf- fered. Only 9,195 paid to watch Billy Southworth’s Braves hoist | their '48 flag. Some 26,000 joined !

TWO GAME ATTENDANCE Detroit expects to draw 50,000 to see Hal Newhouser try to tame the feeble Chicago White Sox. The New York Yankees expect about 40,000 for their Yankee Stadium opener against Washington. The world champion Cleveland Indians are due to play in the ccmparative solitude of Sports- man’s Park against the St. Louis Browns. with 15,000 on less in the stands. Connie Mack counts on 25,000 at Shibe Park for the A’s first home start against the power- ful Boston Red Sox. DIMAGGIO ON BENCH It's a sad opening day for Joe| DiMaggio, Whitey Kurowski and Ewell Blackwell, the three “big ifs” of the spring training season. DiMaggio, missing his eighth of 11 openers, will be on the bench in street clothes while the Yanks tangle with the Senators—league- leading Senators, if you please. Kurowski stays home in St. Louis for an examination by Dr. Robert Hyland while the Cards face Gin- cinnati. Blackwell, who hasn't pitched an inning after a kidney operation, won’t see action for some time. i ANGELS, SEALS N SLUGGING CONTEST By JIM BACON The San Diego Padres still hold on to their lead in the Pacific Coast League race by a mathe- matical quirk. The Padres were idle Monday as Hollywood trimmed the Oaklands 10-5. The Wwin gave the Stars a 13 won and seven lost record. That should be equal to the Padres’ 12 won and six lost but the percentage points come out .667 to .650 in favor of San Diego. In the only other game Mon- day, Los Angeles exploded with five ninth inning runs to break a tie and beat San Francisco 11 to 6. Glen Moulder of Hollywood pitched eight hit ball against the Oaks to notch his third win of the season. Chilly weather held the crowd to 1,868. The Stars pounded three Oak- land pitchers for an even dozen hits. The Stars hit John Conant in the third for six safeties in a row to go ahead 5-1. Herb Gorman homered for Hollywood as did Bill Martin for the visitors. At San Francisco, the Angels and Seals slugged themselves silly. Be- sides the two homeruns, there were|, ten doutles.
