Two million households in Montreal and Toronto were to receive an all-star ballot in their mailbox. The commissioner's office in New York first balked at the idea because Canada Post's plan called for the distribution of 10 million ballots. The commissioner's marketing people had visions of all these Canadian voters returning their ballots with an entire roster of Expos and Blue Jays. voting in North America. Baseball purists argue voting should be taken out of fans’ hands and they're likely to be even more negative about the Canada Post ballot distribution. It’s one thing to root for the home team, but it’s another to suggest menibers of the home team be granted undeserving all-star status. But to its credit, the Canada Post mailing — which As much as they loved Mookie Wilson in New York, they didn’t quite see him legiti ing a couple of million votes to represent the American League squad in Chicago on July 10. includes a ballot and an information package — makes no ion that one should vote for his or her fayorite Ex- pos or Blue Jays performer. Canada Post says it’s in- terested in promoting its AdMail vehicle. Fernandez still far behind NEW YORK (AP) — Tony Fernandez has moved into second place among shortstops in the latest American League fan balloting for baeball’s all-star game, although he trails leader Cal Ripken of Baltimore by more than 152,000 votes. Fernandez, with 286,442 votes in totals released Monday, leap- frogged past Walt Weiss of Oakland, who dropped to third spot with 285,332. Ripken has 438,784 votes. The Jays’ Kelly Gruber main- tained his second-place standing at third base, but fell further behind Wade Boggs of Boston. Boggs, with 440,133 votes, led Gruber, with 357,094, by more than 83,000. Toronto players will likely W AF TONY FERNANDEZ receive a boost during this week, when the Jays play a six-game homestand at the SkyDome, where games are generally sold out. There was -one new leader: Oakland’s Terry Steinbach moved ahead of Cleveland’s Sandy Alomar for the starting catcher’s spot. Steinbach, last year’s star- ter, had 319,243 votes, Alomar, a rookie, had 301,152. Two other Oakland players, Mark McGwire and Jose Canseco, also led at their positions. McGwire was tops among first basemen with 442,211 votes, nearly 107,000 more than New York's Don Mattingly. Canseco, an outfielder, was No. 1 among all vote-getters with 801,073 and teammate Rickey Henderson wassnext with 660,647, it 5-480 more than Ken Griffey Jr. of Seattle. Jays lose again at Dome, Expos edged just one run. That left the score tied in the ninth, giving Ellis Burks the stage against reliever Duane Ward. He drove a tie- breaking triple into the gap in right centre — just beyond Mookie Wilson’s desperate dive — and scored on Tony Pena’s grounder to give the Red Sox a 4-2 win. Kiecker, a right-hander making his eighth start after seven years in the minors, allowed three hits over 8 1-3 in- nings. Rob Murphy recorded two strikeouts in the ninth for the save. Toronto, coming off a 9-1 road trip, had its lead in the American League East shrink to one game over the Red Sox in the first meeting between the two clubs. The Jays fell to 17-17 at home, compared to 21-11 on the road. In the seventh, with Toronto trailing 2-1 and the record SkyDome crowd of 49,907 exhorting a rally, Fred TORONTO (CP) — The way Dan Kiecker looked at it, the game between the Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox on Tuesday came down to his performance in two key situations. In the first inning, Toronto had two runners in ON?, OO i) S Ay) Al a scoring position with nobody out and emerged with a solitary run. Again in the seventh, the first two runners reached base, and again Kiecker shut the door by allowing McGriff reached on Carlos Quintana’s first of two errors in the inning. John Olerud followed with a single, bringing Greg Myers to the plate. Myers worked the count to 3- 1, but swung at a high-and-outside fastball. expos “Il remember him with (Class AAA) Syracuse,"’ said He had a lot of power when he pulled in- Kiecker, 2-3. “* side pitches. Meanwhile in Montreal, for Cubs rookie pitcher Shawn Boskie, Tuesday night’s victory over the Montreal the win column. Expos will go down as more than just a simple notch in It will be something he will remember as his coming of age, baseball style. “I showed people they can’t intimidate me, that I’m going to intimidate them, ** the Chicago pitcher said after leading his club to a 2-1 National League baseball victory. **Nobody’s going to push me around."’ If Boskie (2-3) was sounding unusually cocky for someone in just his sixth big-league start, it wasn’t strictly because he had pitched 6 2-3 scoreless innings, while allowing just five hits. Rather, it was the result of an incident in the fifth in- ning, ironically the time he faced his biggest — and only — jam of the game. North stars count on those winning ways BLOOMINGTON, Minn. (AP) — In his 73-second introduction of new head coach Bob Gainey, Minnesota North Stars general manager Bob Clarke used the words winner, won, win and win- ner again. Team president Howard Bald- win chimed in and noted that Clarke, too, has enjoyed a career of winning. Assistant coach Doug Jarvis, who played seven years in Mon- treal, also spoke of Gainey’s win- ning ways. So did Dave Gagner, one of the North Stars’ top players. Never mind that Gainey’s only ‘bench experience came last season as player-coach in France. It’s ob- vious that hiring a winner was every bit as important as hiring a coach for the North Stars, who have done as much whining as winning over the years. TORONTO (CP) — Ben Johnsn is a hard man to catch. He proved that to Carl Lewis and all the other world-class athletes in the 100-metre dash at the 1988 Seoul Olympics, only to have the gold medal removed and his world records wiped out after being caught using steroids. He’s proving it again to the media, unable to track him down as he prepares for the release of the Dubin inquiry’s final report and a return to “This organization had only one person, Doug Jarvis, who has a Stanley Cup ring,’’ said Clarke, who earned two as a player with Philadelphia. ‘‘Gainey has proven he can win. “I thought it was important for the players to know that the man coaching them has won, that he knows the price and has paid it.” Happy Father’s Day!

CASTLEGAR REBELS JUNIOR "B”" HOCKEY CLUB Is inviting applications for COACH AND MANAGER And he wants to prove it on the track once more, this time without the us€ of performance-enhancing drugs. Now his own coach, Johnson trains twice a day, five days a week at York University. “‘We are waiting for the report to be made public,’ said his lawyer, Ed Futerman. ‘‘At that time we will have something to say.”” At his peak, Johnson could do leg squats with 635 pounds and bench Press 385 pounds. Now Johnson squats with about 500 pounds and can bench press anywhere from 315 to 365. Still, there are those who believe Johnson can again become the world’s fastest man. “*He has the natural ability to be as fast as he was before,’’ said Tudor Bompa, Johnson’s former strength coach. “Just from a straight science point of view, I think Johnson can be as fast again,”’ said Barry Lubek, a University of Toronto professor who’s studied the effects of steroids on muscles. Lubek doesn’t believe steroids help athletes. He’s seen studies in which athletes on placebos outperformed those on steroids and he said much of the benefit of steroids is psychological. Johnson's frame isn’t as large as it was in 1988. His features, particularly his once-massive upper body, have shrunk. Lubek attributes that to an existen- ce without steroids, which cause athletes to retain as much as 40 poun- ds of water. A suspension imposed by the Inter- national Amateur Athletics Federation after his positive steroid test ends Sept. 24. He’ll then be able to run internationally with the blessing of the Canadian Track and Field Association.
