SINGLES HOME RUNS. : Ozzie Virgil singled home two runs in the fifth, and the NL put the game away in the ninth when Petry walked the bases loaded and Willie McGee greeted Hernandez with a ground-rule double. In all, the NL collected four of their runs, six of their nine hits and five of their seven walks from. the Detroit pitchers. “Yeah, we were terrible,” Morris said. Hoyt pitched three innings and gave up one unearned run on two hits. Steve Garvey, another Padre, made it 2-1, getting the TRAIL-WARFIELD MEET game-winning RBI with a two-out single off Morris in the third following a double byu Tommy Herr.

OPENS WITH SINGLE In the eighth, Damaso Garcia opened with a. singleand then stole second, with the throw bouncing off the mound as Garcia broke for third. But Reardon picked up. the rolling ball and easily threw out Garcia. Along with being- aggressive, the NL batters were opportunistic. Darryl Strawberry, whose .229 average was the lowest among the elected starters, singled with one out in the second and stole second. After Graig Nettles, another San Diego representative, flied out, Kennedy singled up the middle. Garvey's RBI single and Virgil's two-run hit off Bert Blyleven also capped two-out rallies. The AL lineup, leading off with Rickey Henderson and his .357 average and followed_by George Brett at .358, seemed like it was ready to quickly exorcise the NL jinx. Henderson opened with a sharp throwing error. Lou Whitaker filied out, but Brett hit a ringing sacrifice fly to left. That was all they would get.
