The 22-year-old right-hander
struck out seven and walked five in

were no-hit for the first time since

Nieves, 2-0, who was 11-12 as a
rookie last season, needed three
other fine defensive plays behind
him to ensure the pitching gem. Left
fielder Jim Paciorek made a diving
catch in the second and third base-
man Paul Molitor made outstanding
plays in the fourth and the fifth.
The crowd of 1 1,407 cheered
Nieves as he took the mound for the
ninth inning.
The victory gave Milwaukee a 9-0
start, the third best in American
League history, as the Brewers re
mained the only undefeated team in
the major leagues.
The youngest pitcher to hurl a no
hitter was Nick Maddox of Pitts
burgh, at the age 20.
The no-hitter was the first in the
major leagues since Houston’s Mike

across from Winn Dixie
DALLAS (AP) — Two separate
groups from the New York-New Jer
sey area have emerged as serious
candidates to purchase controlling
interest in the Texas Rangers.
One or both groups are expected
to send letters of intent within a
week to buy the team, according to
newspaper reports quoting sources
close to the negotiations.
The Dallas Times Herald re
ported Tuesday that a group headed
by art dealer Jeffrey Luria and Ken
neth Wilpon, cousin of New York
Mets co-owner Fred Wilpon, has met
with Rangers majority owner Eddie
Chiles regarding possible acquisition
of the club.
The Dallas Morning News re
ported Wednesday that another
group — which earlier had ex
pressed interest in buying the San
Diego Padres — has now turned its
interest to the Rangers. Baseball of
ficials have said Warren Crane of
New Jersey is the front man for that
group.
The Tort Worth Star-Telegram
also quoted sources Wednesday say
ing that a New Jersey-New York
group is a serious andidate for the
Rangers.
Both groups have said they would
keep the Rangers in the Dallas-Fort
one of Chiles’ condi-
Worth area
tions of sale.
Crane’s group reportedly is
looking at the Rangers as an invest
ment, compared to the Luria-Wil-
pon group, which wants active own
ership.
Chiles declined to discuss groups
that have approached him. Chiles,
who took over the club in 1980, con
sidered selling it because his oil busi
ness is suffering from the depressed
economy. However, he did say the
proposal from Crane’s group had
merit.
“If somebody would make me that
deal and pay me enough to take care
of my debts, I’d make it,” Chiles said.
“I’d love to stay on for a few more
years.”
Mike Stone’s remaining as presi
dent also would be a condition of
any sale by Chiles, sources said.
Bobby Valentine is manager of
the Rangers, under contract
through 1989, but has said he would
not be bound to remain should
Stone or general manager Tom
Grieve be forced out of the organiza
tion.
The cost of the franchise, includ
ing Arlington Stadium and the land
it sits on, reportedly will fall between
$80-100 million.

1-hitter
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Mike
Scott threw a one-hit shutout and
Billy Hatcher homered, doubled
and singled to continue his torrid
1987 start as the Houston Astros
downed the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-
0 Wednesday night.
Scott, the 1986 National League
Cy Young Award winner, allowed
just a third-inning single to Mariano
Duncan as he ran his record to 2-0.
He retired the last 15 batters. Hous
ton’s split-finger fastball specialist
struck out 10 and gave up just one
walk — to Mike Marshall in the
fourth — as he beat the Dodgers for
the second time this season.
Scott had collected a 4-3 victory
over Los Angeles, giving up eight
hits and three runs in seven innings
in the season opener April 6.
The victory kept the Astros on a
pace with their best starts ever. At 7-
2, they’ve equalled the beginnings by
Houston teams of 1972 and 1980.
Hatcher’s solo homer with one out
in the fourth inning, his first of the
season, also was the Astros’ first hit
off Alejandro Pena, 0-1, in the con
test.
Hatcher singled in the sixth in
ning, then drove in Houston’s third
run with a double in the eighth.
After he homered, the Astros
made it 2-0 later in the inning as
Terry Puhl doubled, then scored on
Glenn Davis’ double.
Spurs snap losing streak
in 123-112 win over Blazers
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Led by
Walter Berry’s 27 points, the San
Antonio Spurs snapped a 10-game
losing streak with a 123-112 victory
over the Portland Trail Blazers in
NBA action Wednesday night.
The win ended the Spurs’ longest
losing streak in club history and
lifted them to 27-53. Playoff-bound
Portland dropped to 47-33.
San Antonio controlled the con
test from the second period, leading
58-49 at the half and by as many as
16 in the third period.
Spurs forward David Greenwood
had 23 points. The T rail Blazers
were led by Kiki Vandeweghe with
24 and Steve Johnson with 23.
San Antonio started the second
period with a 16-7 surge to go up 42-
32 as the Portland got no closer than
a three-point deficit for the rest of
the game.
San Antonio opened the final pe
riod with an 88-78 lead and led by
no less than eight points the rest the
game.
