It was an aw-esome effort today. It

Pitching rotations
getting sorted out
With most teams’ season openers
just a week away, managers put
their pitching rotations in order.
Kevin Brown, an 18-game win
ner last year, will pitch the Los An
geles Dodgers’ season opener in
Montreal next Monday night
against Dustin Hermanson, with
Chan Ho Park and Orel Hershiser
starting the second and third games.
Alex Fernandez will start Flori
da’s season opener against San
Francisco on Monday, and Ryan
Dempster, Vladimir Nunez, Jesus
Sanchez and Brad Penny will fol
low Fernandez in the rotation.
Darryl Kile, acquired from Col
orado as part of an offseason pitch
ing makeover, will start St. Louis’
opener Monday against the Cubs,
Chicago’s first game back follow
ing the two-game series this week
against the New York Mets in
Tokyo.
Garret Stephenson, who takes
the place in the Cardinals’ rotation
that opened when Kent Botten
field was dealt to Anaheim for Jim
Edmonds, allowed two runs and
four hits in five innings Monday
during a 3-3, seven-inning tie
against Montreal in Jupiter, Fla.
“In the regular season, if he
throws 80 pitches the way he did
today, that’s the difference be
tween going five or six innings or
pitching into the seventh or eighth
inning,” Cardinals manager Tony
La Russa said.
At Tokorozawa, Japan, Rickey
Henderson went 3-for-4 as the
Mets beat the Seibu Lions 8-1.
Henderson’s name has come up
in trade talks with the Detroit
Tigers involving Bobby Higgin
son. Baseball’s career steals leader
created a commotion this spring
by asking for a deal, but nothing
has happened so far.
Against Seibu, Henderson
scored two runs and drove in one.
He left after five innings with the
Mets ahead 5-0.
“That’s the way it is with base
ball,” teammate Mike Piazza said.
“You have to put the distractions
behind you.”
At the Tokyo Dome, Sammy
Sosa went 0-for-4 as the Chicago
Cubs lost to the Tokyo Yomiuri Gi
ants 6-0.
“They’ve got good pitching,”
Sosa said. “All of them were im
pressive.”
Meanwhile, Jeff Cirillo, expect
ed to replace Dante Bichette as
Colorado’s cleanup hitter, aggra
vated a strained right quadriceps
Monday while hitting eight times
in a minor league game.
“The leg’s not ready,” Cirillo
said. “There’s no pain, but there’s
definitely something in there. I al
most regret doing this today. ... I
do regret doing it. After my first at
bat, I was like, This is probably
not a smart idea.’ That’s where I’m
stupid.”

is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 7
— Focus on your career, and you could ad
vance rapidly. Put a routine into place; it'll
make the job easier. A relationship that's in the
early phases should be doing well, but don't put
much stress on it now. Take it slow and easy.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 9
— You could blossom today. You may feel
like you're under pressure, but that's good. The

can trust.
CANCER (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 6

talking about!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)—Today is a 7 — You
may be working hard again. You'd rather be

an objective person to help. You're too emo
tionally charged.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) —Today is a 7
—The biggest conflict you had to worry about

credit and keep at it.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)—Today

make a date to go out tonight. Stay home and
cuddle instead.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is
an 8 — You're an interesting person to be
around. One of your admirers might stop by

company. If you and your sweetheart or family
want privacy, you should go somewhere else.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)—Today is a 5
— You're probably still in a pensive mood.
You're growing, and sometimes you need time
to ponder new information. Sometimes you
like to have a lot of people around, but this is
not one of them. It's OK to take your phone off
the hook, too.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is an 8
— If a class you want to take conflicts with the
job you're doing, juggle. It's not easy when
you're learning new skills, but it's a good idea.

the happier you'll be. And, you could get
wealthier, too.
