Moseby got that funny feeling in tie eighth on Saturday as he keyed a four-run outburst with a run-scoring triple to help the Jays bounce Chicago White Rance Mulliniks followed Moseby'’s blow with a homer off the right-field foul’ pole to make a loser of rookie right-hander Joel Davis, 1-2.

He had pitched me that way all game. I finally hit the pitch I was supposed to hit all day.” Mulliniks hoped his two hits, a single and the two-run homer, signalled.an end to his hitting woes. Coming into the game he had but five hits in his last 45 at bats. “When you're going like that you wonder if you're ever going to come out of it,” you're not contributing.” Mulliniks said. “You feel like Both the Jays and Yankees won Saturday, keeping Toronto five games ahead of New York in theAL East.

Navratilova, in a second-round match, sailed through fellow American Lisa Bonder 6-1, 6-1, while McEnroe of the U.S. moved into the fourth round with a 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 victory over compatriot Bud Schultz. One seed fell under the dark, brooding skies that covered the hardcourts at the National Tennis Centre.

McENROE JOLTED : McEnroe apparently was jolted by his narrow first-round victory over Shlomo Glickstein of Israel, and has improved dramatically in his next two matches. Against Schultz, his strokes were decisive and his volleys crisp, has displayed during > his Wimbledon and U.S. Open triumphs. “I thought my NY volley game is improved, but I'm a little bit shakey on my groundstokes,” McEnroe said. “I get caught off guard on the } good returns and expecting the : “You. can't do that.

McEnroe finished with eight aces to three for Schultz. He had three double-faults; Schultz had nine. Navratilova took only 41 minutes to crunch Bonder, whose baseline game was no match for the No. 2 seed. “I hit winners and forced the errors,” Navratilova said. “I'm feeling great, I'm in great spirits, having a good time. “And I think the crowds are having a good time watching me, so it makes it that much better. I wish-ail the matches were like this.” It took Lloyd longer, but the result was the same. If the seedings hold, Lloyd and Navratilova would meet in a Grand Slam‘tournament title for the third straight time this year, Lloyd the winner in the French Open and Navratilova capturing Wimbledon. “That's really the furthest thing from my mind at-this point because I've got a few mor egirls to beat before I get to, the final,” Lloyd said when asked about yet another meeting with Navratilova. “I'm just trying to think about getting my game the best that I can get it at this point.” LendI's match was halted by Friday's violent rain and wind storm that wiped out play and damaged several courts. “I did not enjoy the rain delay and ‘would have preferred to get it over and stay home the whole day,” said Lendl, who makes -his home in nearby Greenwich, Conn.

Canada never has been- among the elite-finalists’ in the World Cup, played every four years, but now finds it- self in the leading spot among the three teams competing for the one berth open for North America, Central America and the Caribbean. ‘The Canadians play Costa Rica today in San Jose, that Central American- country’s’ capital, in what could be the decisive game. Mexico, as the host team for the 24-team tournament next’ year, automatically holds the region's other berth. The regional represen- tatives in the 1982 tourna- ment held in Spain were Honduras, which was much praised for its surprisingly effective play. and El Sal- vador. -Costa Rica eliminated the United States. Honduras is the other contender for the final World Cup spot in the ’ three-country round-robin series. Canada tied Costa Rica 2-2 on Aug. 11 and then shocked favorite Honduras 1-0 in Tegucigalpa, the Honduran capital, last Sunday to take the lead in the first round of the regional finals. The Canadians now have three points, Costa Rica two and Honduras one. A Can- adian victory over Costa Rica would clinch at least a tie. The final two games are scheduled Sept. 8 when Hon- duras meets Costa Rica in Tegucigalpa and Sept. 14 when Canada and Honduras play in St., John's, Nfld. Costa Rica and Honduras must win their next two” gariiés to remain in conten- tion. The Canadian performance has made it evident that they now are playing modern, European-style soccer. Honduran newspapers were impressed by the mobil- ity and speed of the Cana- dians under the leadership of coach Tony Waiters. “We came to fight and we won,” Waiters said after the game. “Iam to blame for this © disaster, no one else,” said a numb Jose de la Paz Herrera, coach of the Honduran team, after its loss to Canada. Six teams already have qualified to play in Mexico next year. They -are host Mexico, defending-champion Italy, Hungary, Brazil, Ar- gentina and Uruguay. Rower hasn't lost touch WILLEBROEK, BELGI- UM (CP) — Tricia Smith, Canada’s most successful woman rower, showed she hasn't lost her winning touch although East European countries, led by the powerful East Germans, easily dominated Saturday's finals at the world rowing championships. Smith, an 11-year-old vet- eran of the women’s national team from Vancouver, added a seventh medal to her collection as a member of Canada’s bronze medal heavyweight four with cox crew. It was the lone Canadian medal in ‘women’s competi- tion and Smith's seventh at world or Olympic competi- tion. Smith, 28, was a silver medallist in pairs competition at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. Smith was joined in the Canadian boat by two hold- overs from the Olympic crew — Leslie Thompson of’ Nap- medal- * anee, Ont., and Barb Arm- burst of St. Catharines, Ont. — and Tina Clarke of Van- couver. It was one of four gold medals for East Germany ro- wers, who were clocked in six ‘minutes 50.08 seconds. They were followed to the finish line by Romania in 6:53.33 while the Canadian boat was timed at 6:55.67. “ STRATEGY FOILED Smith was obviously dis- appointed the Canadian boat was unable to work on its strategy during the race. “We_ were hoping to—be closer to the East Gerafians and Romanians at the beg- inning so we could row through them at ‘the finish,” she said. “We're known for our good kick at the end. “We've just got to learn to stay a little closer to the first and second boats.” The East Germans also picked up a silver and a bronze inthe six women's finals at the first major row- ing competition since the Los Angeles Games, which were boycotted by most of the powerful Eastern bloc coun- tries. Romania won a.gold, four silver and two bronze med- als. Third was. the Soviet Union, which had a gold in Saturday’s main event, ‘the women’s eight, and a silver medal in quadruple sculls be- hind the East Germans.” The United States was the main -medal-winner. for the Western nations with two silvers. in team events and two bronze medals in the single sculls categories. West Germany, expected to do well, took only two medals in the lightweight category. The Eastern dominance in the main event, the eights, was typical for the tourna- ment.
