(AP) — Larry Mize turned back two international stars, including the luckless Greg Norman, when he pitched in for a birdie on the second hole of a sud den death playoff Sunday to win the 51st Masters golf tournament. Mize, a native son of this old southern city, won the coveted green jacket that goes to the Masters cham pion with a pitch from about 30-40 yards to the right of the 11th hole. Mize played the shot to the fringe, then stood frozen in fascination as the ball took off, running straight into the cup. When it went in, the Australian Norman was eliminated. Seve Ballesteros of Spain bogeyed the First sudden death hole. No. 10, to drop out. “It’s a dream come true,” Mize said. “I’ve dreamed of winning the Masters, but I never dreamed of winning it like this — beating two of the greatest golfers in the world.” For Norman, it was yet another major frustration. Last year, Nor man led all four of golfs Grand Slam tournaments going into the fi nal round, but he won only the Brit ish Open. In the final major tourna ment of the 1986 season, Norman lost the PGA to Bob Tway after Tway holed a sand shot on the 18th. “I didn’t think it was possible when I saw Larry hit his second shot,” Norman said. “I’m more disappointed now than I’ve been in any tournament I ever played,” he said. “This is the tough est loss I’ve ever had because Larry’s shot was harder than Bob’s.” Ben Crenshaw and Roger Malt- bie, who shared the lead going into the final round, and Jodie Mudd each missed the playoff by a single shot. Mize’s chip-in disappeared into the hole like the flash of a cottontail rabbit ducking into its burrow. The quiet, soft-spoken Mize leaped high into the air, then went hopping around the green, raising both hands in elation and clasping them to his head. “Reporters have asked me all week if I ever dreamed of winning the Masters. I did,” Mize said. “I’m pretty speechless. I’m just trying to fight back the tears. . . . This is a special place for me. I was born and raised here.” It was the climax of a multiple- man struggle in which six men either led or shared the lead at one time or another. And it beat the two dominant fig ures in golf today: Norman, the flamboyant “Great White Shark,” and Ballesteros, the Spanish master who has won this championship twice and owns a couple of British Open titles. They were Mize’s playoff partners after all three finished the regula tion 72 holes in a tie for the top at 285, only three shots under par on the Augusta National Golf Club course. Mize birdied the 72nd hole from about three feet to finish a 71 and was the first in the clubhouse. Ballesteros was next, and he saved par from from a bunker to set up the playoff. He, too, had a 71. Then came Norman, the out standing golfer in world golf last year, who moved into a tie with a 20- foot birdie putt on the 17th. Nor man parred the 18th to complete an erratic 72 that included six birdies and six bogeys. The ninth playof f in Masters his tory began on the 10th hole. Ballesteros was eliminated there. He 3-putted lot bogey, missing a 5-6 foot second putt. Mize had a chance to win it all, but he left a 10-12 foot birdie attempt hanging on the lip of the cup. He tapped it in. Norman, who had missed a birdie from about 20 feet, also made par and they went to the 1 1th.

Houston veteran Phil Garner realizes the impact of both situations. “I’m just enjoying it because I know there will be a time when we are on the other side of the fence,” Garner said after the Astros de feated the Expos 1-0 Sunday to give them a 6-0 record for the best start in the club’s 26-year history. The victory extended Houston’s regular-season home winning streak to 12 games, dating back to last Sept. 23. In contrast, the Expos are off to their worst start ever, 0-5. “You just try to ride the winds as long as you can and hope to mini mize the losses later on,” Garner said. Reliever Dave Smith, who has played a major role in Houston’s winning streak, recorded his fourth save with one inning of perfect re lief. drove in the winning run in the fifth inning. Astros’ starter Bob Knepper, 1-0, gave up six hits in IV* innings. Bob Sebra, 0-1, gave up nine hits in seven innings for Montreal. Houston scored its run when Se bra walked Bill Doran with one out. Doran then stole second and scored on Hatcher’s single to right. “My location has been good, and I’ve been able to change speeds. I haven’t had the consistent velocity that I have now in the past,” Smith said. Billy Hatcher had two hits and The Expos threatened in the sixth when Alonzo Powell doubled with one out. One out later, Andres Ga larraga reached first on an infield hit, and Powell stopped at third. But Tim Wallach grounded out to end the inning. Brewers trim Rangers to remain unbeaten ARLINGTON (AP) — The Mil waukee Brewers are off to their best start ever, unbeaten in six games and showing power that had been miss ing since 1982’s American League champion “Harvey’s Wallbangers.” “I’ve got to be happy with the way the guys are swinging the bats so far,” Brewers Manager Tom Trebel- horn after Milwaukee scored three runs in the 11th and two in the 12th and outlasted the Texas Rangers 7- 5. That ran the Brewers’ mark to 6- 0, their best start ever. In 1978, the Brewers won their first five games. “We were very fortunate to come in here and do this (sweep a three- game series) at this time of year,” said Trebelhorn, whose club has scored 46 runs in six games. “We just got the breaks.” The Brewers trailed 2-1 going into the eighth, but Paul Molitor homered off reliever Greg Harris to tie it, and after the teams swapped three-run llths, the Brewers used three walks and B.J. SurhofFs two- out, two-run single and gave the Rangers their fourth straight loss. Mark Clear, 1-0, victim of Texas’ three-run uprising in the 11th, got the victory while Chris Bosio got his first major-league save with one scoreless inning. 12 walks for the game — before giv ing up SurhofFs single. “We got a lot of walks earlier in the game that we didn’t take advan tage of,” said Trebelhorn, “but we got the big hit when we needed it.” The Brewers took a 5-2 lead in the 1 1th on a single by Greg Brock, a stolen base by pinch-runner Mike Felder, Robidoux’s RBI single, two walks, a hit batsman and an RBI groundout. Scott Anderson, 0-1, the fourth Ranger pitcher on the day, took the loss. In the 12th, he walked Robin Yount, Billy Jo Robidoux and Rob Deer — giving the Ranger pitchers The Rangers then tied it on a sin gle by Pete Incaviglia, who had hom ered earlier, a triple by Ruben Sierra, a single by pinch-hitter Dar rell Porter, a walk and a single by Oddibe McDowell. Bill Wegman started for Milwau kee and went seven innings, giving up two runs on five hits.
