Grimm Sees Braves Moving Up In Chase By BEN OLAN For a team which has yet to celebrate its first birthday, the Milwaukee Braves are doing mighty well. Yesterday, the Braves walloped the New York Yankees 11-3, club bing four pitchers for 16 hits, in cluding a home run by first base man Joe Adcock. "Our boosters in Milwaukee al ready have the championship won, not the pennant, the world cham pionship," Grimm laughed. '"All we .have to do Is play 154 games." Although most of the experts have been giving Brooklyn a de cided edge in the upcoming Na tional League race, the Dodgers don't scare Jolly Cholly. STRONGER "The league Is stronger," he ob served, "and Brooklyn won't be able to knock off the other clubs as easily as they did last year. If we can get some breaks, we'll move up:" ' . ."Up" will, mean the flag be cause Milwaukee finished a sur prise second to the Brooks in -'63, after replacing Boston on March 18. Grimm thinks the recent trade with the Giants which brought out fielder Bobby Thomson to the Braves will help the club a lot. "Bobby gives us the power we needed and he also has added speed to the team. He'll play left field with Bill Bruton in center and Andy Fafko in right." DOUBLE Thomson, who has been pound ing the ball at a merry clip this spring, doubled home a run In the opening inning and hit a single in the middle of a five-run third hi yesterday's victory ' over the Yankees. , Meanwhile, the Dodgers, appar ently hitting their stride, trounced tne Philadelphia Phillies 8-3 in s night game as Manager Walter Al ston used an all-varsity lineup for the first time; Duke Snider got the Brooks off to a good start with three-run home run in the first Adams Win's Second Cup Dr. J.
