A golf tournament is a golf tournament. George Washburn says he has been boring that idea into his brain all week. The last "serious" tournament Washburn said he took part in was the Frederick City Championship last August. Yesterday, he played in the first round of the U.S. Senior Open at Caves Valley Golf Club. "That's quite a change, isn't it?" said Washburn, who resides in Frederick and was one of three players to make the Open - his first pro tournament - at the Mitchellville sectional qualifier.

ANAHEIM, Calif. - A starting pitcher can grumble about run support and cling proudly to a tidy little earned run average, but ultimately his bread is buttered with wins and losses. Baseball immortalizes its 300-game winners and pays only passing attention to ERA champions and victims of poor run support. This is why last night's duel between Orioles starter Scott Erickson and Anaheim Angels starter Jarrod Washburn was so compelling. As the innings passed with nothing but zeros on the scoreboard, something had to give.

SAN FRANCISCO - Anaheim Angels manager Mike Scioscia plotted his strategy through Game 5 of the World Series as if he never had a doubt his team was coming back, blissfully unaware the San Francisco Giants were about to turn it into one of the biggest routs in series history. The Angels have starting pitching concerns, and they faced an early six-run deficit, but Scioscia had seen his team do too much hitting this postseason to alter his best-laid plans. Before long, those decisions didn't look so foolhardy.
