First-inning jitters wrecked the major league debut of Mike Thompson, who allowed only one hit in seven innings of pitching, but was a loser when the Orioles defeated the Senators, 4-1. The rookie righthander from Denver (American Association) walked the first three batters and then uncorked a wild pitch to allow one run to score.
