Baseball 3B Wausau Daily Herald, Monday, April 24, 1989 maul Brewers, 11-3 ATTENTION SCHOFIELD RESIDENTS The Cty of Sdiofield will be having their city wide dean up the week of May 1st, 1989 through May 5th, 1989. Please put all Hems out on your curb the morning oi May 1 st. No calls are necessary, just put out your Herns and they will be picked up sometime during the week. Thank you, Mayor Sarah Kamke City of Schofield MILWAUKEE (AP) Tigers manager Sparky Anderson, whose team still has a tough row to hoe, sounded sympathetic. "The last two games they made some errors," Anderson said after the Milwaukee Brewers committed seven errors in back-to-back losses.

"Everybody -T Sparky Anderson SAVENOW I rnMDiiTcp i Keith Moreland and Lou Whitaker each got three hits for the Tigers. "The last two games we've had 27 hits. There's no question our pitchers needed to see some of that. We have to score some runs," Moreland said. "We did the things we needed to create runs," Whitaker said.

"That's all you need sometimes to get going. After all the things that have happened, we started to hit the ball." Detroit had also beaten the Brewers 6-3 Saturday. "We didn't play well to be 7-9 at this point last year and we've played even worse to be 7-9 this year," Trebelhorn said. Detroit took advantage of three errors, two by rookie shortstop Gary Sheffield, and also scored on a wild pitch. Paul Gibson, 1-0, pitched 3 2-3 innings for the victory.

Guillermo Hernandez went 2 1-3 innings for his third save. Don August, 1-4, allowed eight hits, one walk and four runs in 3 2-3 innings for the Brewers. Sheridan hit his first home run of the season in the second inning, connecting after a single by Moreland. Moreland doubled and scored on a wild pitch by August in the fourth. Sheridan singled and came home during a rundown for a 4-1 lead.

Alan Trammell was hit by a pitch from Mark Knudson in the fifth and scored on Sheffield's throwing error. The Tigers broke it open with six runs in the ninth. Chet Lemon hit a two-run single, Trammell and More-land got RBI-singles, Torey Lovullo had a sacrifice fly and pitcher Paul Mirabella's error enabled another run to score. Milwaukee scored in the third on Robin Yount's single. Gus Polidor hit a two-run single in the sixth off Gibson.

I don't care who you are. Every club goes through good and bad things." The Detroit Tigers got 14 hits in an 11-3 victory Sunday. The win gave the Tigers a two-game winning streak, their longest of the season, which also tarnished the Brewers as the only team to lose two straight to Detroit. The Tigers began the game batting .230 with a 4-10 record. Pat Sheridan hit a two-run homer as the Tigers also reached season highs for hits and runs.

If Anderson was sympathetic, Brewers manager Tom Trebelhorn was apologetic. "I can just say for the entire ball-club we're very embarrassed to play in this fashion," Trebelhorn said. "It was not a Major League game from our side. It's very distressing to play in this fashion. I can't put into words how much it hurts to play like this.

We haven't done a good job." Trebelhorn said his team needed to take control of things it could control. "If we can't control them, we're going to be a less than interesting team," he said.

"It wasn't even a hit that won the game. It was a walk. So that typifies how flaky a game it was."

Still, the Timbers had a chance to save Felix, who left the game at the start of the 12th after working three innings.

Burlington clung to a 2-1 lead, but Razook slammed a two-out, two-run homer to give Wausau the lead.

Alio If mtallk By Dean Witter Wausau Daily Herald I The Wausau Timbers breathed a collective sigh of relief on Saturday when they found out that their trainer Bob Burton was once again in good condition. I On Friday, Burton collapsed on the field during an afternoon practice session and was taken by ambulance to the Wausau Hospital Center. I The 23-year-old Burton was held overnight at the hospital, where he was put under observation. Tests showed that nothing serious caused the collapse and Burton who reportedly was work-' ing long hours without much sleep or proper nutri-I tion was released Friday afternoon. "We gave him a few days off," said Timbers' General Manager Jack Roeder.

"It apparently was just mental and physical exhaustion. He'll be back with us on Wednesday." Coaches of the Burlington Braves said Sunday that slugger Mark Davis' knee injury wasn't as serious as previously thought. Davis, who leads the Midwest League in home runs with five, twisted it while slipping on home plate in Burlington's 13-3 win over the Timbers on Saturday. Davis who was taken off the field in an ambulance was treated and released late Saturday afternoon at the Wausau Hospital Center. "His knee was partially dislocated, but it's back in place now," Burlington trainer Paul Egins said.

"He suffered some strained ligaments. We're going to put him on some light rehab and we hope to have him back in a couple of weeks." After drawing just 110 fans in Thursday night's homestand opener, the Timbers attracted crowds of 1,512 on Friday, 1,035 on Saturday and 1,026 on Sunday. Entering Sunday's contest, Wausau was fifth in the Midwest League in average attendance, drawing 926 a game. The weekend series brings Wausau's total season attendance to 4,728 after five home dates. That's a good start for the Timbers, who expect to finish below last year's total of 55,255.

By Appoinfmtnl lining noctstary. lctic Psrkt Righthander Scott Taylor (1-1, 5.00 ERA) will start on the mound for Wausau. Here's evidence to prove that early-season averages aren't indicative of a baseball player's potential: Timbers left fielder Ernest Castro raised his batting average 143 points in Sunday's game. Castro, who entered hitting .115 (8-for-31), went 5-for-5 with three runs scored against the Braves. A similar situation occured after Wausau's 14-0 romp over Burlington on Friday.

Second baseman Tim Stargell entered that game hitting .211. But a 4-for-5 performance hiked his average 93 points to .304. Stargell's currently hitting .258 after an 0-for-5 day Sunday.
