MEDFORD, OREGON Colts Tip Giants 3-0 In First Major League Sunday Night Game Br MILTON RICHMAN UPl Sporti writes Sundiy night baseball may never replace drive-in moviei but the customer! aure liked It because they got a chance to cool off and tee the hottest pitching staff in the majors at the same lime. A crowd of 17,437. well above Houston'! day-time av erase took in major league baseball's first Sunday night game in history last night and whooped in delight as the Colts handed the San Francisco Giants their lev enth straight defeat, 3-0. The whole idea of Sunday night games was to beat the intense day-time heat in Hous- ton and it worked out fine when the game was played in pleasant 79-degree temper ature compared with 85 de greet during the day. Houston's pitchers have been even hotter than that recently, yielding a total of only two runs in the Colts last three games, Knuckle baiter Skinny Brown, a 38-year-old Amerl can league retread, was Hous ton's pitching star Sunday night when he took over for starter Dick Farrell in the third inning and held the Gi ants to one hit over the last 6 1-3 innings for his first vic tory or the season. Yialds Lona Bingla Brown, who struck out six and did not walk a batter, gave up only a fourth inning tingle to Willie Mays, who was wiped out stealing.

Wanted Golfers CHERRY LANES GOLF COURSE By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer Grieving Ken McBride had little desire for baseball Sun day. ' No one in the world would have blamed him had he de cided not to pitch. But he forced himself to and turned in a magnificent Job, consid ering his heart and mind were 2,400 miles away. Only a few hours before he was tcheduied to pitch against the Minnesota Twins at Los Angelct Sunday, the Angel right hander was informed that his younger brother, Clifton, 24, had been killed in a Cleveland auto accident. Manager Bill Rigney told McBride he could leave for Cleveland immediately and another pitcher would take his turn. McBride said he'd rather pitch before Joining h 1 1 family. Dtfeett Twint . I felt It would take my mind off what happened," he said, then went out and beat the Twins, 4-2, although he needed Mel Nelson's help in the ninth. "I thought about what hap pened back in Cleveland a couple of times while I was working a couple of long Innings but I tried to keep it out of my mind," he revealed later. The Twins, who had a four game winning streak going, looked as If they were going to kayo McBride In a hurry when they scored a run off him In the first inning and another in the second on Jimmie Hall's homer. But the 27-year-old blanked them thereafter without any trouble until he put two men on in the ninth. Nelson came in at that point and struck out pinch hitters Wally Post and Johnny Goryl to preserve McBrlde's sixth victory. McBride fanned seven and allowed seven hits in the 8V6 Innings he pitched.
