I don't worry about the one that I just had or think about one that might come up with someone on base. I want to swing at strikes and not hurt myself by swinging at pitches that aren't over the plate," Lee said. "This year, I've been able to do that better than ever before.

What makes me feel so good is that I've matured in the way I've approached the game, but this problem with my ankle has kept me from enjoying how I've developed. "I just hope that they can find out what is wrong with me and get me straightened out I need to get back in the lineup." WW' mm IARRYTAFT Sports Writer TOLEDO, Ohio This was supposed to be a week of celebration for Terry Lee. Instead of savoring his outstanding season, the 28-year-old Lee tomorrow Is headed to Cincinnati, where his ailing right ankle is to be examined by Reds team physicians. Lee hasn't played since June 30 in Denver, where he hit two home runs and drove in a club record-tying six runs. "I just don't know what's wrong with it, but It has gotten worse this week," a dejected Lee said last night.

"I've got everything to gain right now, and I'm seeing it all slip away from me." Lee has a lengthy history of ankle problems. Signed by the Reds in 1982, he worked his way through the Cincinnati minor league system before being sidelined with a stress fracture in 1986 while with Class AAA Denver. He played 34 games that year, missed all of 1987 and played 25 games in 1988. He played in 64 games last year and has been in 25 this season, giving him 148 games in the past five years, only two more than a standard minor league season. He had bone spur sur OPEN SATURDAY 8 AM TO NOON gery in each of the last three seasons, making 1990 his first healthy season since 1985, when he played with the Reds' Class AA team in Vermont Lee had responded well to his 1990 opportunities, having hit .345 with nine home runs and 39 RBI.

"No one knows how frustrating all of this is for me or how frustrating it has been for the past four years," Lee said. "My ankle has a very sharp pain in it every time I rua I'd like to know what it is. I'd like to know how all of this is going to work out. I can't tell you how tired I am of all of this. I don't want to have to face surgery again.

Psychologically, it would be really tough on me." Lee has been a patient athlete most of his career. He did not play college baseball, opting instead to attend Boise State on a basketball scholarship where he was a shooting guard. The irony of the latest ankle flareup is that it comes after one of his best games. He belted two home runs in Denver and was named the Sounds top player for the month of June. "I have made a transition in my 811 GALLATIN RD.

Though he was the loser on Friday night when Toledo defeated Nashville, 5-3, Gross said it was not a bad game. "I threw one really bad pitch a fastball up and in, and he Phil Clark parked it," Gross said, "but that was the only mistake I made. "I thought that game and the one I pitched at Oklahoma City Ton June 25 were the best I'd pitched this season. My fastball moved, I had good control and could throw the ball pretty much where I wanted to.

I made one big mistake, and it cost me." All-Star game on radio: The Triple A All-Star game, scheduled for 8:15 p.m. (CDT) on Wednesday, is to be broadcast on WSK-AM (980). Bob Jamison, the voice of the Nashville Sounds, is the broadcaster representing the American Association at the microphone. Free admission: Ticket stubs from the July 3 Sounds' game can be redeemed for a general admission ticket to the Sounds' July 1 2 game with American Association Eastern Division-leading Buffalo. Hammond's replacement: When Chris Hammond is called up to Cincinnati to join the Reds, look for Gino Minutelli to be promoted to Nashville from Chattanooga.

Minutelli, 26, is a left-hander, as is Hammond. No Sundays please: The Sounds have winning records on every day of the week except two Sunday and Thursday. Nashville has a 6-8 Sunday record and a 3-9 record on Thursday. Familiar turf: Playing in Toledo is a homecoming of sorts for two Sounds outfielder Leo Garcia and pitcher Charlie Mitchell. Garcia played here last year and Mitchell a few years ago.

Another former Mud Hen associated with the Sounds is pitching coach Ray Rippelmeyer.
