Joe Niekro improved to 19 wins with his fifth shutout of the year, beating the San Diego Padres 1-0. The veteran knuckleballer noted his success came from pinpointing his slider and fastball while adding a fifth victory over San Diego in 1979 and raising his lifetime record against the Padres to 13-4. He needs one more win to reach the 20-win milestone.

Too Tall Jones fights first boxing bout in New Mexico
New York boxers trainer Hal Bock reports Dallas Cowboys star Ed Too Tall Jones, 6 foot 9, preparing for his first six round bout on November 3 in Las Cruces New Mexico after training six days a week at Times Square Gym. Jones lost weight to 247 pounds from 275 and says his 88 inch reach will give him an edge, though some boxing pros doubt a football player can switch to boxing. Cowboys teammates planned a reunion for November 4 in New York but canceled due to Jones first fight, causing some resentment.
