LOUIS (AP) - Ted Sim mons, the Milwaukee Brewers catcher, was philosophical He talked about big guys and little guys, about struggles for sur vival and why they are won and lost. That was several days ago, when the Brewers were strug gling to stay alive in the Amer ican League playoffs Not only did they survive, they accom plished the greatest turnaround in playoff history by beating the California Angels in three straight games after losing the first two Milwaukee’s comeback set up the team's World Series clash with the St. Louis Cardinals, who completed a three-game sweep of the Atlanta Braves in the National League playoffs Sunday night Game One of the Series is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. Tues day at Busch Stadium in St. In the back to school rush of settling into your new residence, plus surviving the rigors of registration, it's nice to de pend on the convenience of good old Ben.

The final two games of the Se ries would be played in St Louis on Tuesday and Wednesday. Simmons’ locker room soliloquy, although he did not know it at the time, may have been prophetic. It seemed to sum up the way this World Se ries would take shape "If you have 10 big guys and 10 little guys,” he said, "the 10 big guys usually win But that’s not always the way it works out in baseball The nature of the game is such that you never know what will happen." Baseball’s 1982 version of Big vs. Small was personified in this World Series On the one hand, there were the Brewers — baseball’s home run kings with 216 during the regular season, brute force with a capital "B." On the other hand, there were the Cardinals — with the fewest home runs in the major leagues this year, 66, yet with a team batting average of .264, second highest in the National League. The Cardinals won the NL East with pitching, defense and speed, although the natural grass of Milwaukee County Stadium probably would negate some of that The Brewers, meanwhile, conquered the AL East with power, a solid defense, more power, some decent pitching, and still more power. * ‘ The Brewers are an excel lent hitting team," St. Louis Manager Whitey Herzog said, "just like the Braves But if our pitchers do the same consistent job they've done the last three games, we ll do OK." During the NL series, St. Louis’ pitching held the Braves, who led the National League with 144 regular-season homers, to just one extra-base hit, a double by Dale Murphy. Herzog said right-hander Bob Forsch, who pitched a three-hit shutout in the second game of the NL playoffs, would start Game One of the Series for the Cards Milwaukee Manager Harvey Kuenn said he probably would counter with left-hander Mike Caldwell, the opening game loser in the AL series Forsch was 15-9 with a 3.48 ERA during the season, while Caldwell was 17-13 with a 3.91 ERA The big question for Milwau kee was bullpen ace Rollie Fingers, who has not pitched since Sept 2 when he sustained a torn muscle in his right for earm. Kuenn said Fingers could have pitched to one or two bat ters in the playoffs, but there still was some pain in the pitcher's arm. In his place, Kuenn used rookie right-hander Pete Ladd, who faced 10 batters in three playoff appearances, retiring all 10 "Why should Harvey use me, at 75 percent, when he’s got Pete Ladd pitching.so well?" Fingers asked Sports shots The Oregon rugby club trounced the Beaverlon Hooligans 39-0 Sunday behind the nimble foot of Jamie Graber Graber scored 27 kicking points, in what coach Paul Webb called, one of the outstanding days any of our players has ever had Scott Haas.
