82 Castlegar News May 4, 1988 SPORTS Rodgers 'wowed' CINCINNATI (AP) — Montreal manager Buck Rodgers was left nearly speechless by his Expos’ latest extra-inning improvisation. Only one word came to mind to sum up the 4-3, 12-inning vietory Tuesday night, and Rodgers had to use it twice. “Wow,” he said, letting the ending sink in. “Wow.” In the Reds’ clubhouse, players weren't in a talking mood because of the sloppy play that let a victory slip through their fingers. “Don't ask me about that play,” said right fielder Fracy Jones, referring to a decisive misplay that set up Tim Wallich’s game-winning single in the 12th. The play occurred with two out and Tim Raines on first base by a single off Rob Murphy, 0-2, the fifth Cincinnati pitcher. Hubie Brooks hit a fly ball to shallow right, sending second baseman Dave Concepcion racing into the outfield while Jones charged in, The two looked at eachother and stopped, letting the ball drop for Brooks's fifth hit of the game as Raines took third. “My reaction is to go back to get anything I can,” Concepeion said. “But I saw the ball was too far away. I didn't call for the ball and I assumed he was behind me. “I don’t think it was my ball. I was expecting to hear somebody holler so I could get out of the way.” It was the only break the Expos needed to get their 15th vietory in their last 17 extra-inning games, including a 3-1 record this season, Wallach singled up the middle for his sixth RBI of the season and his first since April 21. “Wallach drove in 52 runs last year with two out,” Rodgers said. “He's a pretty good RBI man with two out. Dallas tops Houston in battle of Texas By The Canadian Press Roy Tarpley couldn't match Akeem Olajuwon's in dividual performance, but he'll take what he got — the win Tarpley hit the go-ahead basket with 3:45 to go and scored two more baskets in the tense closing minutes as the Dallas Mavericks beat the Houston Rockets 93-92 Tuesday night to grab a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five Na tional Basketball Association playoff series. “Akeem was helping out so much that it left me open,” Tarpley said of his 17-point, 13-rebound performance. “I told Ro (Rolando Blackman) to look for me when he drove. They keyed on Ro.” The Mavericks, who ended a five-game playoff road losing streak, can win. the series Thursday night. In other games Tuesday night, Cleveland avoided elimination against Chicago, defeating the Bulls 110-102: the LA Lakers advanced to the second round with a 109-107 triumph over the San Antanio Spurs; and Denver's 125-114 triumph over Seattle gave them a 2-1 series lead. Tonight, it's Boston at New York, Detroit at Washington, Atlanta at Milwaukee and Portland at Utah. The Celtics and Hawks lead their series 2-0 while the Pistons lead 2-1 and the Trail Blazers and Jazz are tied 1-1. Olajuwon, who led Hous- ton with 35 points and 12 re. bounds, missed the Rockets’ final shot of the game. “Time was running out and it was a pressure shot,” Ola juwon said. “I've made that shot before. I just missed it.” The Mavericks, trailing 77-73 to start the fourth quarter, tied the score four times in the period and took the lead, 86-84, with 3:45 to go on a tipin by Tarpley.

Walter Berry, off the Spurs bench, led all scorers with 27 points. Cavaliers 110 Bulls 102 Mark Price scored 31 points and Larry Nance and Brad Daugherty each made a Tigers capture Actually he's better than that with one out,” The Reds weren't very good at driving in runs Tuesday night regardless of the number of outs, and it cost them two chances to win in the last innings. Eric Davis, Barry Larkin and Paul O'Neill hit solo homers to help the Reds forge a 3-3 tie after five innings. They had a chance to win in the ninth, but Jeff Parrett. fanned Davis with runners on first and second and two out. The Reds had the most Promising opportunity in the 11th, loading the bases with none out against Joe Hesketh, who was recalled last week from Class AAA Indianapolis and was making his second appearance. Hesketh got Chris Sabo to hit into a home-to-first double play, then walked Kal Daniels to reload the bases for Davis. “When Davis came up, a lot of things were going tywil by Expo heroics through my head — everything you hear about Eric Davis,” said Hesketh, 1-0. Hesketh went to a full count on Davis and decided to throw his best pitch. ’ “I knew as soon as I went to 8-2 that I was going to throw the slider again,” he said, “You don't want to challenge a guy like that with a fastball. “(Catcher Mike Fitzgerald) came out and asked what I wanted to throw. I said, the slider. That's my out-pitch.” It got him out of the trouble. Davis ‘swung and missed, leaving him with strikeouts in his last three at-bats. Davis is batting .177 with three homers, nine RBIs and 82 strikeouts in 96 at-bats. Tim Burke pitched a perfect 12th to get his fourth save and preserve Hesketh's first vietory since June 28, 1986, against Pittsburgh. Hesketh required surgery in July 1986 to free an impinged nerve in his shoulder. critical basket in the final minute as Cleveland held off a Chicago rally. Michael Jordan scored 38 for the Bulls, three above his regular-season average, but far below his average through the first two playoff games when he scored 50 and 55 points. Guarded by Craig Ehlo after Ron Harper went out with his fifth foul early in the fourth quarter, Jordan made only two field goals in the final 12 minutes.

YANKS MOVE INTO FIRST WITH WIN By The Canadian Press The New York Yankees are in first place in the American League East Division today. Naturally, they couldn’t agree on its significance, “It's always nice to be in first place,” suggested Yankees outfielder Rickey Henerson. But manager Bill Martin said with a shrug: “First place doesn’t mean a thing this time of year.” The Yankees beat the Chicago White Sox 4-1 and, because Cleveland lost 8-4 to the California Angels, New York took a one-half game lead over the Indians. Henderson's reason for enjoying first place? “Because that means the other teams have to chase you,” he said. Martin’s reason for not getting excited: “I like to be there the last day.” In the rest of the AL, it was: Toronto Blue Jays 9, Seattle Mariners 2; Kansas City Royals 9, Boston Red Sox 3; Texas Rangers 4, Baltimore Orioles 2; Oakland Athletics 8, Detroit Tigers 2; and Milwaukee Brewers 4, Minnesota Twins 3. Henderson homered, stole two bases and scored three times in the Yankees’ victory. Charlie Hudson was the winner, making his first start of the season because Rick Rhoden is injured. He worked. into the seventh inning, allowing four hits. Henderson hit his fourth homer leading off the seventh off White Sox left-hander Dave LaPoint, who came into the game with a league-leading 0.94 earned-run average. ‘ “It’s a lack of hitting, period,” Chicago manager Jim Fregosi said. “But give the Yankees credit; they're a hot club.” Angels 8 Indians 4 California scored five times in the ninth inning to beat Cleveland, getting two of the runs on clutch pinch hits by George Hendrick and Butch Wynegar. Donnie Moore, 2-2, worked two innings for the win. 9 Red Sox 3 George Brett hit two doubles and a single, drove ina pair of runs and scored twice as Kansas City swept a two-game series in Boston. Jamie Quirk and Bill Pécota homered for Kansas City, and Bret Saberhagen, 4-2, allowed seven hits in seven innings. 4 Orioles 2 Texas rookie left-hander Ray Hayward, recalled from the Rangers Class AAA Oklahoma City team four days ago, worked 7 1-3 innings for his first major-league victory, allowing eight hits and two runs. Al 2 Dave Stewart, 7-0, became the major leagues’ first seven-game winner, allowing six hits in six innings, Carney Lansford and Mike Gallego each drove in three runs for Oakland, which has won nine in a row. Brewers 4 Twins 3 Jim Gantner had three hits and two RBIs, including a run-scoring single in the ninth inning that broke a 3-3 tie and lifted Milwaukee to its fourth straight victory. WHL championship MEDICINE HAT, ALTA. (CP) — Three goals by Trevor Linden led the Medi cine Hat Tigers to their second straight Western Hockey League title with a 5-2 victory Tuesday night over the Kamloops Blazers. The win gives the Tigers a chance to defend their title as last year's Memorial Cup champions. The team travels to Chicoutimi, Que. for that tournament May 7-14. The Tigers defeated the Blazers 4-2 in the best-of. seven final series. Mark Woolf and Cal Zan kowski scored once each for Medicine Hat while Garth Premak and Randy Keller replied for Kamloops.

Tigers’ goaltender Mark Fitzpatrick managed to keep out 35 Kamloops shots before a standing-room only home- town crowd. “We had chances but as usual we couldn't put them away,” said Blazers’ coach Ken Hitchcock. “The differ: ence in this series was how well (Mark) Fitzpatrick play. ed. He just stopped our shooters.” Medicine Hat took 11 of 27 minor penalties, one miscon- duct and one major penalty.

The umpire's ‘ation says Pallone won't be punished; the National League says no one will ever know if he is. While the Cincinnati man- ager appealed his 30-day sus- pension and two Cincinnati broadcasters apologized for their role in Saturday night's Taucous ninth-inning at Riverfront Stadium, Pallone’s fate remained un- certain. “The umpires are subject to discipline just like anyone else on the field,” said Na- tional League spokesman Katy Feeney. “It is between umpire. “Tt will never be released. It never has been released. We don't want to subject (umpires) to any danger oh the field.” However, Richie Phillips, executive director of the Major League Umpires As- sociation, said he believes no action will be taken against Pallone, who first worked a big league game during the 1979 umpires’ strike and hasn't joined the union. The Rose-Pallone incident occurred with the Reds and New York Mets tied 5-5 in the ninth inning of Saturday, night's game and New York's Howard Johnson on second base with two outs.
