Greenberg batted right-handed and wasn't expected to be in peak form after his military service. His homer destroyed the strategy and the Browns.

Newhouser, who had relieved Trucks, had departed for a pinch-hitter in the rally and already was in the locker room when he heard the crowd erupt. The Tigers went on to beat the Chicago Cubs in the World Series. Cullenbine was a resident of Harrison Township. He was a partner in the potato chip business with former St. Louis Cardinal Augie Bergamo, another Detroiter, then became a manufacturer's representative.

ber of players declared free agents by commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis in 1939. Landis ruled the Tigers illegally covered up the players in their minor league system. As a free agent, Cullenbine signed with the Dodgers for a $25,000 bonus. "He was one of the best athletes to come out of Detroit," said former Tigers pitching star Hal Newhouser, also a product of the Detroit sandlots. "He could do a lot of things baseball, basketball, bowling, golf.

He could have been a scratch golfer if he had wanted to. And we had a Tiger bowling league and used to bowl against Stroh's, with Joe Norris and all those guys. Cully always had one of the highest averages. "He was even best when it came to pitching pennies against a wall. He could do it all." Cullenbine appeared in two World Series, with the Yankees in 1942 and the Tigers in '45.

Newhouser has a vivid recollection of how Cullenbine played a key if unglamor-ous role in the game in which the Tigers clinched the American League pennant. Hank Greenberg, freshly returned from the Army, hit the grand slam that won the game, and Virgil Trucks, freshly returned from the Navy, was the starting pitcher. But the Browns walked Cullenbine intentionally to pitch to Greenberg. Cullenbine ByJACKSAYLOR Free Press Sports Writer Roy Cullenbine, one of the many baseball players who lifted his game from the Detroit sandlots to the major leagues, died Tuesday of a lingering heart ailment. He was 77.

Although born in Nashville, Cullenbine grew up in Detroit, where he started and ended his 10-year major league career with the Tigers. A switch-hitting outfielder and first baseman, he came up with the Tigers in 1938, then played with the Brooklyn Dodgers, St. Louis Browns, Washington Senators, New York Yankees and Cleveland Indians before returning to Detroit in 1945. He retired after the 1947 season. A fine all-around athlete, Cullenbine's career batting average was .276, and he hit 110 home runs.

His best season was 1946, when he hit .335 for the Tigers. He still holds the Tigers' record for walks in one season 137 in 1947. He also hit 24 home runs that season, his last, when he was 33 years old. Many players of that era wanted team officials to think they were younger than they were, and there was a discrepancy in Cullenbine's age, too. He was born Oct.

18, 1913, but the official baseball register lists his year of birth as 1915. Roy Cullenbine, who 6pent 4V seasons in a Detroit uniform, was a lifetime .276 hitter. In addition to being two years older than the Tigers thought, Cullenbine became one of baseball's first bonus babies, and one of its first free agents before either became commonplace. The two were related. Signed off the city's sandlots by the Tigers, Cullenbine was one of a large num PLAYER OF THE WEEK Brian Warren, RHP, Class A Fayetteville Reward man in the middle Mi-Star spot for urmng relievers? Boston Red Sox pitcher Danny Darwin thinks it's time for middle relievers to start getting their due.

So do I. Pitchers who start and finish games get all the gold and glory. But without reliable middle relievers, neither could do their jobs as effectively. You need look no further than the Tigers to discover the value of middle relief.

FARM STATISTICS Toledo Mud Hens (AAA) Lakeland (A) Rash of injuries limits options for Anderson by John Lowe Free Press Sports Writer MILWAUKEE The Tigers have been virtually at full strength for weeks, and Lloyd Moseby is their only player who has been on the disabled list this season. Now, just as the weather is getting hot and the days off disappearing, the Tigers are starting to run short of players.

Because of injuries, manager Sparky Anderson said that for Tuesday night's game, only three reserve hitters were available (instead of the normal six), and that three of the regular five relievers were unavailable. Anderson said Lloyd Moseby (sore hamstring) and Lou Whitaker (sore side) wouldn't play Tuesday, and that Pete Incaviglia (sore chest muscle) would only play in an emergency. He also withheld the trio from Monday's 14-inning victory, when the Tigers' only available reserve after the sixth inning was Mark Salas. Anderson said Moseby will be examined on Thursday's open date in Detroit, and said the outfielder might be placed on the disabled list. The manager said Paul Gibson, Mike Henneman and Mark Leiter wouldn't pitch Tuesday, and he hoped he wouldn't have to use them in today's series finale.

Gibson pitched 6V3 innings spanning Sunday and Monday; Henneman had appeared in six of the last eight games and warmed up in the other two; and Leiter pitched 4W innings Sunday. NOTEBOOK: Tony Phillips was named American League player of the week for going 12-for-20 which raised his average from .266 to .311. He had a .714 on-base percentage, scored nine runs and stole four bases. Travis Fryman entered Tuesday hitting .225, but with 28 RBIs, third on the team. Fryman went 3-for-3 Monday in terms of driving in runners with less than two out, making him 8-for-10 this season in that vital category with the difference in the game three runs or less.

Milwaukee added a pitcher Tuesday when it activated Ted Higuera and sent outfielder Matias Car-rillo to the minors. The Brewers now have seven relievers; the Tigers stay with five because Anderson doesn't want to release a hitter for the third time in two months Anderson said that if he wanted to release a hitter, team president Bo Schembechler and chairman Jim Campbell would let him. "You just can't keep releasing people," said Anderson, who acknowledged that a release wouldn't significantly add to the Tigers payroll, because the new pitcher likely would be a rookie making the minimum salary ($100,000 prorated) Rob Deer, booed loudly in Milwaukee on Opening Day last year, received more cheers than boos in his first at-bat as a visiting player in Milwaukee. "It was a pretty good reception," said Deer, who signed with the Tigers as a free agent last November. Bill Gullickson battled through five innings Monday even though he had been Ul the night before, Anderson said.

"I had worked hard in the offseason, and they told me I was capable of pitching at the Triple-A level, but there was just no room for me there." After DeSilva failed to pitch well in his fourth start, manager Gene Roof had seen enough. He challenged DeSilva to pitch like the highly regarded right-hander the Tigers think he is. DeSilva responded by saying he would not lose another start and that was five victories and five starts ago.

He has raised his record to 5-3 with a 3.02 ERA and leads the Eastern League with 62 strikeouts (in 65 innings). DeSilva, 23, a 6-foot, 195-pounder, was the Tigers' eighth pick in the 1989 draft. He was 16-2 at Brigham Young that season and Western Athletic Conference player of the year. He was a four-sport prep star in Ft. Bragg, Calif.

baseball, football, track, wrestling. Football, however, was his first love. After two strong seasons in the minors and the makings of a third, DeSilva appears to have made the right career choice. He recently was selected Eastern League pitcher of the week. "If I continue to dominate on this level, they'll have no choice but to keep moving me up," he said.

NOTEBOOK: Toledo's stars for the month are third baseman Scott Livingstone, outfielder Skeeter Barnes and right-hander Kevin Ritz. Livingstone batted .340 (32-for-94) for the month with 23 RBIs. Barnes, who has played all three outfield positions and first and third base, batted .320 (32-for-100). Ritz is 4-0 in his last four starts with a 1.77 ERA. Outfielders Steve Pegues and Riccardo Ingram batted .292 last week and combined for 11 RBIs.

Right-hander Eric Stone was placed on the disabled list with a sore shoulder. Right-hander Steve Cummings reported to Toledo last week, and left-hander Don Veslinji was demoted to London. Fayetteville third baseman Jimmy Alder started with 49 strikeouts in 90 at-bats that's one strikeout for every 1.8 at-" bat. After getting glasses, Alder has struck out five times in 21 at-bats and raised his average 38 points to .171. Correction Of The Week: a Portland newspaper found itself in hot water when it mistakenly ran a fill-in-the-details story on a late-running Pacific Coast League game between Portland and Albuquerque.

The story informed readers that "Joe Blow had three hits to lead the Albuquerque Dukes to a win." So howjid the paper correct that mistake? The next day it ran: "Dave Hansen was incorrectly identified as Joe Blow." Well, that cleared that up. Leiter left, the Tigers were safely ahead, 9-3, and went onto win, 9-4. Leiter got credit for a victory, but most times a middle reliever comes into the game when his team is behind and receives little official recognition for his work. Middle relievers have become a key element on winning teams, and Darwin thinks the time has come to name one from each league to the All-Star team. That's a sensible idea so sensible that it probably won't take the slow-moving lords of baseball mote than 20 or 30 years to act on it.

MANAGERS' MERRY-GO-ROUND: Because it has become open season on managers, the question is: Who will be next to go? The Expos' Buck Rodgers always seems to be one losing streak away from losing his job. Brewers manager Tom Treblehorn is vulnerable, despite general manager Harry Dalton's recent vote of confidence on national television. Roger Craig seemingly is in too tight with Giants' management to get fired. But Craig says he has experienced tightness in his chest lately and might decide to voluntarily step down if the Giants keep floundering. The firings of Nick Leyva, John Wathan and Don Zimmer didn't surprise me much, but I didn't expect Frank Robinson to get the ax.

Robinson had no illusions about a long managerial career. But he did tell me last year that he wanted to manage at least one more season after this one so he could spend a year in the manager's office at the Orioles' new stadium. Robinson said he'll probably accept a job as the Orioles' assistant general manager. Maybe his new office will be almost as nice as the one the manager gets. PURELY PERSONAL Sparky Anderson is working with Pete Incaviglia and Rob Deer, trying to help the two power hitters hit for higher averages.

I don't mind the Tigers' manager fooling with Incaviglia, but I don't like him messing with Deer. The Tigers knew what they were getting when they signed Deer as a free agent last winter a big free swinger who hits about as many home runs as singles. Unless Sparky is Merlin the magician, Deer won't suddenly start hitting for an appreciably higher average. But so what' He's fun to watch and a valued member of a very entertaining team just the way he is. PURELY PERSONAL ll: Like most of you, I hate domed stadiums for baseball and was happy the Tigers said their new home would be an open-air facility.

The one problem with that approach to baseball in Detroit is the uncertain weather this time of year. If you live outstate and there is a threatening weather forecast, do you risk the long drive? This is where I think a retractable dome might make sense. The Tigers say they have rejected that feature, in part because natural grass won't grow inside an enclosed stadium (they don't want artificial turf) and because the additional cost for a dome would be "considerable." As for part one of that argument: Why not just close the roof if it's raining during a game? Keep it open the rest of the time so the grass can grow. The cost? I know a retractable dome would add a lot to a new stadium's price tag. But wouldn't the Tigers eventually make the extra cost back in jpcreased ticket sales? It sure seems to me that more fans would buy tickets in February for a game in April or May if they knew it would be played and they wouldn't have to watch it huddled under a blanket.
