Brothers Bretts Face Off as Yankees Face Royals
Ken Brett, 27, a Yankees pitcher, and George Brett, 22, Royals third baseman, are brothers whose bond stands firm amid a season of clashes. George hit 195 hits in 1974 and led the AL with 195 hits and 89 RBIs last year, while Ken once rose with the Red Sox and later joined New York. They finally faced each other in an exhibition in Fort Myers where George belted a 430-foot homer off Ken, prompting a warm handshake and a promise of future meetings as they prepare for a three-game set at Yankee Stadium.

Green Mountain Race Track opens with thoroughbreds for 100 nights
POWNAL The shortest thoroughbred season in the history of Green Mountain Race Track opens tonight with 10 races. The meet runs 100 racing days, down from last year, with weekend racing through May 13 and expanded nights later. The Rooney family owners anticipate better horses and exotic wagering including a quintella, while dog racing will start in September with non association dogs. The track faces competition from OTBs and other New England tracks, but hopes the shorter schedule and improved fields attract bettors.
