Well, the Pittsburgh Pirates are a long way from fourth place and one of the reasons is Stargell's clutch hitting. Last year's home run champ majors. Stargell describes himself as a streak hitter who never goes for the long ball.

"When I try to hit homers," he said, "I can't. And I can't explain why these things come in streaks for me, but I hope I never lose the touch, ft seems like when I have the short, quick swing, I get the homers. It's like Billy Williams" awing and I consider him the best hitter I've ever seen." While Stargell has the lead in to-back homers by Leron Lee and Colbert. "I wasn't tired in the ninth," Moose said. "Lee and Colbert hit good pitches for those homers, but I knew someone would come in and save it." Manager Bill Vlrdon sent Ramon Hernandez in to record the last two outs of the game.

"I feel that if I can hold them close for eight innings someone will come in and do the Job," Moose added.

Moose, now 10-8, gave up five Andrews Slugs Chisox To Win Over Ex-Mates By NEIL HERSHBERG UPi Sports Writer Mike Andrews was disappointed when the Red Sox traded him to Chicago several years ago but it was Boston which probably had the regrets Monday night. The former Boston inftelder drove in five runs with a three, run homer and a double as the White Sox topped the Red Sox, 6.4. The victory kept Chicago a half-game in front of Oakland in the American League's Western dlvlson. Andrews snapped a scoreless tie In the fourth inning by lining his seventh home run of the season into the left field screen with Dick Allen and Carlos May aboard.

Andrews, enjoying his best game at the plate this season, helped the White Sox to a 5.1 lead in the sixth inning with a double to lefUcenter that scored Buddy Bradford and Allen. Rich Morales singled home another run before the Inning was out in the nationally- televised contest. A Little Downhearted "I was a little downhearted when they traded me," Andrews said. "Who wants to leave Boston? There aren't any san Fran better fans in the world. You don't have to get up for a game, they get you up." In other games Baltimore blanked Minnesota, 2-0, and Oakland edged Cleveland, 5.4, in the other American League games scheduled.

In the National League Pittsburgh defeated San Diego, 5.3. St. Louis downed San American League East. Don Baylor's ninth homer of the season leading off the fifth inning gave Baltimore its first run. Willie Stargell drove in fours with his 29th and 30th homers to power Pittsburgh past the padres.

Bob Moose allowed only five hits over the first eight innings but was tagged for back'to'back ninth toning came in to record the final two outs and preserve Moose's 10th victory of the season. Homer Climaxes Inning Bobby Tolan's seventh homer, coming with two aboard, climaxed a four-run sixth inning that carried Cincinnati over New York. Gary Nolan, making his first start since being sidelined with arm trouble on August 2nd, gained homers by Leron Lee and Nate the victory when he limited the Mets to one hit while reeling off six scoreless Innings.

Running back Paul Robinson scored on third quarter touchdown plunges of six and two yards within a span of 3:09, bringing the Bengals from a 1710 halftlme deficit to a 24-17 lead. Carter nailed down the victory in the fourth quarter when he passed three yards for a touchdown to rookie receiver Steve Kingman and then led the Bengals on a drive which consumed the final eight minutes and ended with a 13- yard field goal by Horst Muhlmann. The win was a plus in Carter's favor in the battle for the starting quarterback position since Anderson directed Cincinnati to a pair of TDs after Miami had wrapped up a convincing victory last week. Elsewhere in pro football, the Los Angeles Rams announced that Ken Geddes, a second-year linebacker from Nebraska, will be lost for at least eight weeks with a broken right arm.

For the past couple of falls there hasn't been much dust. Last year, the Orange rushed for the fewest yards since 1957 and that year SU played only nine games. But now it appears that "The Crunch is Back." That's good news for Syracuse faithful, headache time for opposing defenses.

Why the feeling of optimism? Several reasons. Two big ones are Roger Praetorius and Marty Januszkiewicz, the top two ground gainers for the last two seasons. There is speed with the return of Greg Allen and Bob Barlette and there is a bevy of highly regarded sophomore backs who want to play football now, not next year. Praetorius and Januszkiewicz have had to carry the brunt of the Orange attack and enemy defenses have been geared for the inside charee of these two bulls. finished in fourth in springboard competition.
