Toronto falls short

TORONTO (CP) — The Detroit Tigers jumped to a
nine-run lead then survived a Blue Jays comeback to take
an 11-8 American League victory Saturday before an all
time record Toronto baseball crowd of 48,430.

On an unseasonably cool, blustery day that played
havoe with fly balls hit in the SkyDome, Detroit scored on:
ce in the second inning and four times in both the third and
the fourth innings for a9-Olead

The Blue Jays, who rebounded from a 10-run deficit
last Sunday in Boston for a win, came back with tour in the
filth and four more in the seventh to close to 9-8.

Detroit's Pat Sheridan, who entered the game in the
fourth inning as a pinch hitter, delivered a two-run single
off Tom Henke in the ninth for the fittal margin of victory
Sheridan had three hits and three RBIs and Chet Lemon
drove in three runs for the Tigers

Tony Fernandez led Toronto with a two-run double, a
single and three walks.

Frank Williams, 3-2, the fifth Tiger pitch

Jimmy Key, 6-5, gave up five runs on six hits in three in
nings. Xavier Hernandez kept Toronto in the game, pit
ching five innings and leaving with two out in ninth and two
runners on base, when Henke came in to face Sheridan

The five Tiger pitchers combined to give up nine walks
and 11 hits

By TOMMALONEY
The Canadian Press

In the stadium built for the 1990s, fans who arrive
early get to watch TV as Pat Gillick ponders how to
reshape the Toronto Blue Jays for the future:

This Week in Baseball flashed on the SkyDome’s
massive JumboTron scoreboard and Mel Allen's voice
reverberates from field level to nose-bleed territory
That’s where the cheap seats cost nine bucks and ven.
dors need not have mountain climbing experience, but it
helps

Allen's show led with the retirement of
Philadelphia slugger Mike Schmidt betore moving on to
describe the Blue jays’ last game at Exhibition Stadium
That game finished on a George Bell home run, a fitting
end for a wind-whipped converted football gadium
where the baseballs came with afterburners.

For Gillick, general manager and architect of the
under-achieving Blue Jays, the game meant it’s time for
his American League team to step into high gear

While corporate box occupants munched on $6.50
McHot Dogs, Gillick stood on the SkyDome field wat
ching batting practice. Blue Jay hitters were trying, but
ultimately failing, to muscle home runs through an in
visible barrier

Labatt’s may partly own this team, but baseballs
definitely fly into the Dead Zone at the Skydome. Cen
tre fielder Lloyd Moseby says it plays like the biggest
park in the league, meaning there's more territory in the
alleys to cover and fewer balls making their way into the
bleachers.

BUNTON

The cushioned artificial turf gives a grass-like
bounce, allowing bunters a decent shot

The stadium also puts the onus on fundamentals
executing the hit-and-run, laying down sacrifice bunts
hitting behind the runner, turning double plays. Failure
to do these “little things
flying low in the AL East

Gillick acknowledges his tedm must adapt to the
stadium, as a chameleon switches color to suit its en
vironment

It’s especially true for the outfield, where Toronto
needs speed and a few good arms.

“Ha guy can run and throw and hit line drives, I'll
prefer him to a guy who can't field but can hit some
home runs, "’ Gillick said

The Jays have already made a move in that direc

has the present flock of Jays

tion, shipping veteran Jesse Bartield to the New York

Blue Jays need more

just address

Yankees a
and agg

Gillick’s pronouncement also sounds ominous for
shaky left fielder Geroge Bell, who Gillick reportedly
tried to deal to Atlanta in a three-way deal that would
have landed the Jays pitcher Mark Langston from Seat
Ue. However, that never materialized and Langston, for
now, has found residency in Montreal with the Expos.

It's most definitely a clear warning bell for centre
field Lloyd Moseby, whose arm has deteriorated into a
wet noodle and whose legs are showing the affects of
playing for nine seasons on the rock-hard Exhibition
Stadium surface

SEEKING STRIKES

Conceding the SkyDome gives a slight edge to the
pitchers, Gillick also says it will influence the type of
hurler Toronto employs

id replacing him in right field with the speedy
ssive Junior Felix.

You'll get away with a guy who can put the ball in
playa little bit more,” said Gillick
Does he mean a pitcher such as.right-hander Jim
Clancy, who jumped ship in the off-season and took the
three-year contract offered him by the Houston Astros?
A guy like Jimmy) Key, (John) Cerutti, (Kansas
City left-hander) Charlie Leibrandt — that type of
guy,” Gillick retorted quickly. **The important thing in
this park is to throw strikes and get the ball over. Then
you got achance
Strikeout pitchers prone to giving up too many
walks — a Dave Stieb, posibly a Tom Henke or a rookie

Bell, Moseby, Stieb, Ernie Whitt, Bob Brenly and
Mike Flanagaa tit that mode. Gillick will be ina position
to trade, to reshape

With little in the way of outfield help ready in the
minors, Gillick's going to need a trade

The problem, says Gillick, is contenders aren't
likely to give up anything valuable from their rosters

“They don’t have any surplus to give,"’ he says. “It
they give up a regular, they weaken themselves

“It they don’t have a deep farm system, they can’t
trade

Gillick is already short a right-handed hitting out

In the third, Tu-Dor began the in-

Two more home runs were hit by Tu-
Dor in the fifth, Ed Strelaeff hit his
home run with the bases empty and
Tony Kabatoff reached first in time to
watch Ely Chernenkov stroke his four
bagger. The score then stood at 7-2 and
Tu-Dor appeared to be coasting to an
easy win

However, Hi Arrow battled back in

cluding yet another home run, this
time by Tim Horcoff. But Tu-Dor’s

They would have no qualms about

Iv’s all part of the business,”
Detroit coach Chuck Daly said.

After winning the first two games at

two teams in NBA history have won
the title series after falling behind 2-0.

The Lakers; must overcome the

The Pistons are 40-5 in their last 45

How much would a Detroit title this

SHSS track team
at provincials

By GUY BERTRAND
aff Writer

in any competition, all that is
demanded of you is your best effort

At the Provincial Track and Field
Championships, two Stanley Hum-
phries secondary school athletes
achieved personal best. However, it
still wasn’t enolagh to crack the top 10
in their respective events.

Coach Don Lust was happy with the
team’s overall performance but admit
ted that his squad went up against
formidable opposition at
Swangard Stadium in Burnaby.

A lot of the atheletes from the
Lower Mainland have the opportunity
to compete in clubs and train year

some

round,” said Lust

“There are a few potential national
team members. In fact, the winner of
the men’s 100 metres ran a 10.70
seconds, that's less than a second off
the world record.”

But Lust was quick to point out that
the results of wo SHSS athletes were
personal best. Aimie Chernoff topped
her old time in the 800 metres but failed
to crack the top 10, finishing 11th. Dan
Jory also achieved a personal
milestone in the 1,500 metres. But
again it was only good enough for
16th.

Jasén Ferris posted another strong
time in the. 800° metres and finished
17th
