Carter-Riley 10-round boxing bout leads boxing slate
This week's televised boxing shows include Jimmy Carter facing Charley Riley in a 10-round bout at the St. Louis Arena. Carter, newly crowned lightweight champ, delays first title defense due to a virus, with DeMarco rematch to be staged later at Madison Square Garden where Rin Dono faces Lasse Rin in a 10-round bout. Baseball pennant races begin to take shape as Cleveland Indians, Chicago White Sox and New York Yankees spark an AL three-club battle while Milwaukee, Brooklyn or New York lead in the NL. Interleague play opens and the Braves hope to extend their lead at home as Dodgers and Giants hit the road. Wrestling, golf, and fishing notes fill the rest of the sports page with a Masters-like showdown pending and local fishing reports from Pymatuning Dam.
