...team has responded brilliantly to Lasorda's gusty enthusiasm. They are leading the league in hitting, home runs and runs batted in. Of the starting rotation - Don Sutton, Rick Rhoden, Doug Rau, Tommy John and Burt Hooton - John and Hooton are the only ones to have lost games in the first five weeks of the season. Sutton, the ace of the staff, like a former Dodger righthander, Carl Erskine, catches the corners of the plate with his curve - and batters looking at third strikes.

Only the first place finisher in the tournament gets the nod for an NCAA berth. The 36-hole event is being held at the Pleasant Valley Country Club in Sutton, Mass. where the professional tour touches down every summer to play the Pleasant Valley Classic...

Traditional powerhouses such as U.C.L.A., North Carolina and Kentucky made the top 20, but so did newcomers Detroit, North Carolina-Charlotte, Utah and Arkansas. Back in the fold are such born-agains...

But he seems to have had no new ideas about his own profession since he pulled his first...
...history of this bright, vain man is diverting. Not many people are truly fond of banks, or of prisons, and it is fun to watch Sutton deflate their institutional dignity. It would be even more fun if he spoke with his own voice. Unhappily, his book is one of those first-person ghostwriting dilutions that make Masaichieftains, subliterate footballers, and Brooklyn bank robbers sound as if they were serving ten years to life in journalism school...
