That was Gozzo’s 107th pitch on the night and Gaston used reliever Duane Ward to finish the game.

Lions against the Edmonton Eskimos. Galat took over as head coach on Sunday after firing head coach Larry Donovan The affable Galat, who last coached in 1985 with the now-defunct Montreal Concordes, expects the 0-4 Lions to rise from their early season slumber “Whenever there’s a coaching change, it sort of jogs everyone into waking up,"’ said Galat, who now holds the dual position of coach and general manager “It’s sort of like driving. When there's an accident everyone drives safer after that."’ The Lions began their mysterious skid against the Eskimos on July 13 when they lost the season-opener 20 1s The four losses have been by a total of 18 points and Galat believes the Lions can turn their season around by making fewer mental errors, especially in the area of penalties. MISTAKE PRONE “We'd like to eliminate some of the mistakes, for sure,"’ said the 47-year-old native of Cresson, Penn. “We're like a gardener — we'd like to weed out some of the problems. “There's a lot of good talent here. We can get the job done if we don't make mistakes." There will be added emphasis on special teams with receiver coach Jim Young replacing Donovan as special teams coach. The Lions had a punt blocked for a touch: down last Friday during a 44-38 loss to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. Donovan's fate was sealed after the Hamilton loss. Galat and executive vice-president Stu Kehoe met Saturday and the decision was made to fire De coaching record in league play and was 2-2 in the playof. fs, including a 22-21 loss to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the 1988 Grey Cup. Matthews returned to the CFL this year as the defensive co-ordinator of the Eskimos, who have allowed a league low of 61 points. NEAR TOP Edmonton has a 3-1 record and trails the first-place Saskatchewan Roughriders in the West by two points The Eskimos won their last game 22-21 against the Toronto Argonauts The knock against Donovan, apart from the slow start, apparently was that the Lions lacked discipline, on and off the field “There's no more Mr. Nice Guy around here," ad ded Galat. ‘I suspect there needs to be a checkup from the neck up Defensive back Marcus Thomas felt an urgency in practice under Galat that had been missing during the first month of league play “I get the feeling people are working harder,”’ said Thomas, ‘*but we're at the bottom and have to work harder, regardless of the coach.” One of Galat's first duties as head coach was to break up a disagreement Monday between defensive co- ordinator Steve Buratto and personnel director Roy Shivers. They scuffled briefly after practice before Galat intervened The Lipns trail third-place Calgary by four points and have already lost once to the Stampeders. Edmonton won the first game against the Lions without scoring a touchdown. Jerry Kauric kicked six field goals and two singles in the five-point win in the opener Eskimos offensive lineman Trevor Bowles returns to the lineup tonight. He had been sidelined by a muscle ed suffered lift barbell. Galat named Donovan head coach in October 1987 after firing Don Matthews Donovan had a 14-12 Tonight's game will be shown nationally on TSN at 7:30p.m., PDT.
