1 Bamberger' wante-Brewers to stay relaxed DETROIT (AP) Milwaukee slugger "These guys are close, too, and that derson said. "Whenever it's real warm and close you see a lot of home runs." Detroit rookie sensation Pat Underwood suffered the defeat, his first after reeling off five straight victories since being promoted from the Tigers' minor league farm club at Evansville of the American Association. Underwood gave up six hits and all five Milwaukee runs before being relieved by Aurelio Lopez at the start of the eighth. "I hated to take him out with no chance to get the win," Anderson said, "but I felt I had to come in with Lopez." Travers, who picked up his second victory of the year over the Tigers, scattered eight hits before giving way to Bob Galasso after 6 2-3 innings. Galasso earned his second save, holding the Tigers scoreless and giving up two singles.

"I just wanted to challenge the hitters," Galasso said. "Nothing fancy just save the ballgame." Tiger first baseman Jason Thompson, who was hitless in two trips to the plate, left the game after five innings with a pinched nerve in his back. Club physician Dr. Clarence Livingood said the ailment would be evaluated on a day-today basis. The two clubs meet again tonight with Detroit right-hander Jack Morns, 8-5, scheduled to face Milwaukee righthander Jim Slaton, 10-4.

Box score 2B; other games 3B Ben Oglivle thinks the Brewers are going to stay in the thick of the American League race because Manager George Bamberger has them relaxed. "Bamberger has a great attitude," the one-time Detroit Tiger outfielder said Monday night before the Brewers defeated Detroit, 5-4. "He's a relaxed kind of guy and he's passed it on. "He's made believers out of us." Bamberger says the key is mostly letting the players alone. "I know this: if you're relaxed, you've got a better chance of winning than if you're tight," Bamberger said.

"We don't ask them (the players) to do too many things. means a lot. Sometimes they're out on that field two and three hours, playing that flip game. It's rough. I don't like it too much, but it brings the guys together." The 11th win in 12 games kept the Brewers 6 1-2 games behind Baltimore and 1 1-2 games back of second place Boston.

The Brewers' Bill travers wasn't too relaxed Tuesday, though, in winning his eighth decision against four losses. The temperature was announced as 76 degrees, but seemed warmer, and Travers had to battle both the weather and a wilting fastball. "I went out during batting practice and saw the balls flying out there into Sports 1 THE TIMES HERALD PORT HURON, MICH. Wednesday, July 25, 1979 the seats, all over the place and it didn't do wonders for my confidence," Travers said. Travers gave up eight hits, including two home runs to Tiger catcher Lance Fairish and one to rookie Tom Brook-ens, his first.

"I had trouble with my fast ball," Travers said, "and I made two critical mistakes to Parrish. But they didn't get a hit off my breaking stuff." The Brewers' bats also were booming, however. Gorman Thomas and Buck Martinez homered and Paul Molitor and Dick Davis hit RBI triples to deep center field.

Not that generous winds were plentiful for the 259-nautieal mile trip from lower Lake Huron to a simmering Mackinac Island.

Instead, Durand, a Port Huron Paper Co. executive, had only to check Paper-mate's company along the way which, in sailing terms, proved to be of higher class. "After the start on Saturday I don't think we saw anyone from Class until the last few hours," Durand said. "We were always with bigger class boats." Papermate, one of a handful of Port Huron Yacht Club entries among 2G5 starters, effectively left most in her wake. The Tartan design, 30-foot sloop finished third in the 25-membcr Class and took 12th overall in Division II after corrected times were computed.

About 160 yachts made up the second division, consisting of Classes K-L. Brandy, a Cal 34, finished 31 minutes ahead of Papermate to become the top Class finisher. Vauntcurier was Papermate made the voyage in 53 hours, 39 minutes, 12 seconds. She received a handicap allowance of 8:12:06 from Division II scratch boat Meridian, which subtracted from the elapsed time left her with a corrected figure of 45:32:44. "We never did get the strong winds I thought we would need to do well," Durand said.

"But it all turned out for the better. The crew did just a super job that's where the races are won and lost." Dr. Harry Kostoff, Win Cooper, Ed Ely, Bill Moore and Charles Staiger joined Durand in the six-man crew and combine a wealth of sailing experience. Kostoff is a veteran of several Mackinac races and had sons on other race entries. Bill Kostoff was aboard Leading Edge, which finished first in Class C.

While several vessels most notably Division I scratch boat Sassy and Encounter, experienced trouble finding good air Papermate stayed on a course close to the rhumb line and made steady progress. "We didn't deviate from the course more than a few degrees," Durand said. "Probably the big decision we made was to decide that a predicted front on Sunday asn't going to come.
