Von Hayes turns up limping CHICAGO The Phillies are beat up right now. Carmelo Martinez is on the disabled list, recuperating from a rib-cage muscle pull, and Tom Herr, Rod Booker and Von Hayes are banged up, too.

Before yesterday, rightfielder Hayes was the only Phillie who had played in every game. But yesterday, against the Cubs, he missed his first game of the season, with a bruised and sore right foot. After the game, he was walking on crutches. He not feling very good at all," said manager Nick Leyva. "I don't know if he'll be able to play for the rest of the series." Hayes, who was already playing with a bruised and sore left shin, injured the foot in Thursday night's win over the Cubs, when he fouled a ball off it.

An X-ray revealed that the foot is not fractured, which had been the Phillies' worst fear. He is on day-today status and is not expected to play today. The timing of irritating injury was -unfortunate for him and the club. He had been breaking out recently, with 13 hits in his last 34 at-bats. On Wednesday, he tied a team and National League record for walks in a game with five.

He also leads the team in RBIs (36) and home runs (9). The hot streak raised his batting average to .295. Yesterday, Leyva played John Kruk, normally a leftfielder, in right, and started Ron Jones in left. Jones batted in Hayes' traditional spot, third. In the past five days, Kruk has made two profound personal changes: his hairdo and his uniform number.

In St. Louis, Kruk, who had been wearing his hair long, got a modified crew cut. In Chicago, he changed his uniform from one prime number, 11, to another, 19. After the Phils defeated the Cards on Tuesday night, third-base coach Larry Bowa asked Kruk, "How'd the new haircut hold up?" "Got us a win," said Kruk, who is in one of his uncommunicative periods. As near as anyone can tell, Kruk's uniform change has something to do with his self-declared hitting slump.

Leyva yesterday rested second baseman Herr, who is bothered by the flu, a sore back and a sore toe. Booker, his most likely replacement, is recuperating from a pulled hamstring muscle, so Leyva started Randy Ready at second for his 12th start of the season. Half of them have been at second, and half in left, where Ready feels more comfortable. The Phillies have now signed 14 of the 57 players they chose in the amateur draft. Among the signings announced yesterday were outfielder Antonio Grissom, 20, brother of Montreal Expos outfielder Marquis Grissom, and shortstop Steve Hollins, 22, brother of Phillies third baseman Dave Hollins.

This afternoon's game will feature Marvin Freeman (0-1) vs. the Cubs' Shawn Boskie (1-3). By Michael Bamberger DeJESUS, from 1-C geous Scranton hitters haven't gotten much of anything out of this fearsome experience, except maybe a new appreciation of the art of self-defense. "I rebroke my thumb against him," said Legg, holding up the puffed-up digit in question as Exhibit A. "I broke it right before spring training, and it was just getting well.

Then I went out to hit off Jose." Zap. One of those zoom-balls tailed in and jammed him on the fists. Clank. Another one flubbed off the end of his bat. "Those were the only two balls I even hit," Legg said.

"And one of them rebroke my thumb. With the rest of them, it was like, 'Good morning, good afternoon and good But if what comes next is, "Good day, Philadelphia," then in the big Phillies picture, Gregg Legg's broken thumb may be a minuscule price to pay to get DeJusus into a starting rotation that is starving for another righthander. Two months ago, the Phillies sent five righthanded starters to their tri-ple-A outpost: DeJesus, Marvin Freeman, Jason Grimsley, Chuck Malone and Bob Scanlan. Two of them DeJesus and Grimsley were chosen as the best pitching prospects in their leagues last season. One of them Freeman once threw a seven-inning one-hitter at Shea Stadium in 1986 against the soon-to-be World Series champions.

Another Malone was the sensation of the Phillies' Instructional League team last fall. All five of them whoosh the ball up there at 90 m.p.h. or above. In the case of DeJesus, whose nickname is "A Hundred," that's a lot above. The idea was for one of those five guys to put it together as soon as possible and come charging to the rotation's rescue.

Well, only Freeman has made it to Philadelphia. But since his triple-A numbers were 14, 5.64, you couldn't exactly say he charged anywhere. The Phillies are still waiting for the other four. Malone hurt his elbow. Grimsley still fights occasional battles with those old demons inconsistency and wildness.

And Scanlan hasn't sustained his sporadic flashes of brilliance. But in the case of DeJesus, the 6-foot-5 smokeballer the Phillies stole in the Steve Jeltz trade this spring, the wait might be just about over. In his last start, Tuesday in Syracuse, he twirled an electrifying 10-strikeout three-hitter. In his start before that, he fired an eight-inning three-hitter against the first-place team in the International League, Rochester. And in the start before that, also against Syracuse, he went seven innings for just the second time all season, parceling out three earned runs.

It was by far the most spectacular display of pitching DeJesus had put on since he strolled into the Phillies' camp in March, telling stories about how he once threw a ball 103 miles an hour. "I'd think that if he's impressive in his next one or two starts, he could be up here," Phillies general manager Lee Thomas said Thursday. "If he goes out and pitches good again, we'll have to take him real serious," Phillies manager Nick Leyva added. Now that his teammates have witnessed DeJesus' stuff with their own eyes, they almost tremble as they talk about what they have seen. "You watch it, and you're just in awe," said Red Barons manager Bill Dancy.

"You watch those righthanded hitters phew. I mean, they just buckle." "He's going to be a dominating pitcher," said Agostinelli. "When he gets his fastball and his slider over, which he's been doing his last few times out, I don't think there's anybody who could touch him. He's got a fastball that's 95 Im.p.h.l and a 91 Im.p.h.l slider that takes your underwear off." "The way he throws, he might be one guy I've seen who you can't compare to anybody," said Legg, who has watched a zillion pitching prospects come and go in his seven triple-A seasons. "The only guy I can remember who threw as hard as him was 3-C Jose Rijo.

As a public service, we wish to point out that all of this gushing is over a guy who, three starts ago, was winless in six starts and had a 4.66 ERA. But that was before the unortho-, dox idea hatched, almost in desperation, by Jim Fregosi, the Phil-, lies' roving minor-league trouble-, shooter, and Jim Wright, the Red Barons' pitching coach of letting DeJesus go out and make his own, hitters miserable. "Our main concern with him was; that he was putting too much pres-; sure on himself," said Dancy. "He let i the fans affect him. He let the urn-! pires affect him.

It seemed like some-; thing was always affecting him out! there, and we didn't know the total reason. "So Fregosi and Jim said, 'We've! tried everything else. Why don't we just let him throw to some more1 So they did. Instead of throwing on the side between starts, DeJesus be- gan pitching batting practice if it's still possible to call it that in his case between starts. "The thing with Jose," said "was that when he threw on the side, he threw well.

When he warmed up for the game, he threw well. But! during the game, any time a batter, was up there, he thought too much about the hitter." So how could they make him forget, about the hitter, relax and remember that not many people alive can! hit a baseball traveling that fast? By, having him face more hitters in a relaxed atmosphere and watching! them flail away helplessly. And it has, worked like a charm. "It's like Fregosi told me," DeJesus! said. "He said, 'Jose, you've got to have some bleeping fun out And I said, 'OK, what the heck.

I'm, gonna go out and But it isn't just batting practice-that has made DeJesus a creature of, newfound relaxation, he says. He-also just finished reading a sports- psychology book called (he thinks)! The Mental Part of the Game. And he says it has changed his life. "It talks about all the negative', things and positive things a lot of' players go through," he said. "I read about how Mike Schmidt always hat-', ed it when they booed him but hej learned not to listen.

I read about" how Dwight Gooden always said to himself in a big spot that it was matter of letting his ability do all work. "Since I've been reading it, noth-, ing bothers me anymore. If the ump. doesn't call a strike, I won't 'Where was that anymore. It used to be that when I pitched and I didn't do good, my next start I'd be saying, 'I can't do Now I know I was going out with the wrong attitude.

Now I say, 'You've got to leT your ability do all the DeJesus' ability has since carried him to the brink of the big leagues. His next start is tomorrow. If he fires his fourth straight gem, Dancy says1 he will have to consider telling the-Phillies that DeJesus is ready. But it might not be that Phillies farm director Del Unser says he is not in favor of rushing DeJesus to the big leagues until everyone is sure he can handle it. "The psychological side of it would! merit a few more starts at I think," Unser said.

"You just don't want him to fall back into a hyper situation where he walks a guy and, hits a guy, and 'Here we go again' is; on his mind. So the recommendation from my side is that he stay there, a little longer and see if he can overcome some future problem. If he shows you he can do that, he might; be tougher for having done it." Of course, Unser concedes, "cir-; cumstances sometimes alter your' philosophy." And he also concedes that "the way he's throwing makes-you sit up and really take And then there's another concern: How long will it be safe to allowi this guy to terrorize not only the opposing hitters but his own, too? It isn't often that a team is looking forward to saying goodbye to the best pitcher it has. But in the case of1 Jose DeJesus, the Scrantoni Wilkes-Barre Red Barons might be ready to make an exception. 1 'va ur a Tesuttiby Marzotto Pw7 Ellis Harve Benard Talliaof Italy and many others SINCE 1917 Philadelphia Inquirer HIMWItll" VHHV United Press Internsttonal Dykstra .410 YESTERDAY: 1 for 4 vs.

Chicago, 9. 1 mm, to-' PHILLIES, from 1-C third, their biggest inning of the season, in a game in which they scored the most runs they have all season: After Sandberg homered, there were singles by Dunston and Luis Salazar. When Mark Grace grounded out, Dunston scored the inning's second run.

There were two out, and the last three men in the lineup were coming up, so it didn't appear that the Cubs would start scoring runs with wild abandon. But they did. A wild pitch by Mulholland allowed Salazar to advance to third, and when Villanueva, who followed Grace, singled, Salazar scored. After Domingo Ramos singled, pitcher Pico singled, and his catcher came home. When Jerome Walton doubled down the left-field line, Ramos scored and Leyva, mercifully, pulled Mulholland for Carman.

Carman did OK against the dangerous Sandberg he walked him, intentionally. But he faired less well against Dunston, who smacked the grand slam on a 2-2 pitch. For the inning, nine runs, eight hits, one error (on Dykstra), nobody left on base and a game put away early. That, of course, is not always the case at Wrigley. When the breeze is blowing out, no lead is safe.

But the Phillies mustered not even a rally. The game ended, fittingly, when Ron Jones, recovering from knee surgery and not running the bases well, did not slide when trying to go from first to third on a Ricky Jordan single. He overran the base and was tagged out. "We've been more impressive," Leyva concluded. Baseball moves AMERICAN LEAGUE New York Yankee: Placed Rick Cerone, catcher, on the 21 -day disabled list.
