The Courier from Waterloo, Iowa • 32

1 Stctlon WBttrloo Courier Aug. 1, 1982 Dodger homers slow Brave waltz .1 i ft 1 I 1 White Sox coble hype is backfiring Boston Globe CHICAGO The woman who sang the National Anthem got booed twice Thursday night. The fans booed the anthem, and when she tried to sing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" during the seventh-inning stretch, they booed ber so badly she stopped before she ever got to the peanuts and Cracker Jacks. They booed Vance Law every time a ball was hit to him at shortstop, and Tony LaRussa every time he poked his head out of the dugout. They booed Carlton Flsk when he struck out with a runner on third in the eighth, and they chanted obscenities at Marvis Foley when be took a Mark Clear cleaver for a called third strike in the ninth.

LaRL'SSA, BY the admission of owners Eddie Einhorn and Jerry Re-insdorf, could be fired any day and replaced by director of player development Bobby Winkles. "If we do It, we'll be firing a good manager," said Einhorn, whose money comes from television. "But only Oakland has a worse record since May 15." "I can't blame them," says LaRussa, "because we're not winning, and these three weeks (against Boston, New York and Baltimore) are vital to us. We can win. Whether we have the best team is another story.

We can still win, but when the team is struggling the way we're What happens every night the Yankees lose, what happened in Texas with the Sartresque firing, of Don Zimmer and what's happening here with Chicago's Show Biz Kids Is what happens when owners make promises that baseball players, who are only human, can't keep. THE MARKET potential In Chicago should be obvious. From the time Einhorn and Reinsdorf got hold of this franchise in January 1981, they made moves designed for maximum media impact. They signed Fisk. They bought and signed Greg Luzinskl.

They spent all kinds of money on hitting coach Charlie Lau and sportscasters Ken Harrelson and Don Drysdale. And every ballyhooed move was geared to shake their moneymaker, namely the SportsVision cable outlet. Hype was the idea, and the owners believed that the more people thought the White Sox would win, the more cable subscriptions would sell. There were problems getting SportsVision off the ground, and now with the team struggling, the 40,000 subscriptions needed to break even have turned out to be somewhere between 12.000 and 17,000, depending on who's talking. Not only that, but two bad months closing out the season could be disastrous: How many people are going to pay $22 a month this winter to watch the Black Hawks ice the puck? "THEY WENT OUT and got players, but they had no idea what would happen as far as the chemistry was concerned," says Fisk.

"Now they're stuck with some guys who couldn't care less." To start with, Einhorn and Reinsdorf didn't know what to do with fired broadcaster Jimmy Piersall, so they put him on SportsVision with commentaries during and after the game and gave him a postgame talk show. Gullible people feel they must pity Piersall, and ignorant people feel that because he was a player and a very good one he must know what he's screaming about. But the fact is that Piersall makes his living on other people's blood. Piersall is to journalism what dumping over a paint can is to art, and his absurd, second-guessing rantings have thrown fuel on the fire. "He's been killing me for three years," says LaRussa, "and what bothers me is that he's lied about so many things." Field News Service By The Associated Preit The Los Angeles Dodgers had their backs to the wall, but the Atlantz Braves had their backs against the Dodger home runs fly out of cozy Atlanta Stadium.

Ken Undreamt slammed a pair of two-run homers and Ron Cey hit one in the opener, while Cey and Steve Sax belted two-run shots in the nightcap, powering the Dodgers to a 10-9, S-2 sweep of Friday's twi-night doubleheader that slowed down the Braves' threatened runaway in the National League West, first game was a very good character game for us, and obviously it carried over into the second game," said Steve Garvey, who drove in the 'tying run in the opener as the Dodgers came from five runs down. He added three RBIs in the second game. "As time goes on, it favors the first-place team," Garvey explained. "We just want to get somewhere within reason by September, something like three games out." DESPITE THE sweep, the Dodgers still trail Atlanta by 8Vi games 10 in the loss column and they are one percentage point behind the runner-up San Diego Padres, who lost their fifth straight, bowing to the Cincinnati Reds 42. Even with all the home runs, the Dodgers needed Ron Roenicke's rally-capping two-run single to win the opener.

The five-run seventh-inning outburst ended the 27-inning scoreless streak of Atlanta reliever Steve Bedrosian as the Braves blew leads of 6-1 and 8-3. "We kept battling back in the first game, and that's something you like to see a club do in an important series like this," said Manager Tom Lasorda. "Winning two ballgames really means an awful lot to us right now. If you gain some ground now, it can make it that much easier." Cey said the sweep "could be a turning point, although there's no way you'll know until you look back when it's over. It has the flavor there to suggest that, but it depends on what we do and how the Braves react.

It's really too early to tell." Bob Welch held the Braves to six hits in the second game, disappointing a crowd of 47,787 which Included former President Jimmy Carter. Reds 4, Padres 2 CINCINNATI Bruce Berenyi pitched a five-hitter and drove in Cincinnati's first two runs and Larry Biittner singled home the winning run as the Reds handed the slumping Padres their fifth consecutive setback. Singles by Eddie Milner, Dave Concepcion and Biittner snapped a 2-2 tie in the fifth inning and Wayne Krenchickl's infield hit produced an insurance run. Berenyi singled a run across in the second inning and added a sacrifice fly in the fourth to stake himself to a 2-0 lead. Phillies 3, Cubs 1 PHILADELPHIA Steve Carlton became the major leagues' first 14-game winner with a six-hitter and Mike Schmidt hit a two-run homer.

It was the third straight victory for the Phillies, who took a one-game lead over St. Louis in the NL East, and the seventh loss in a row for the Cubs. Schmidt has homered In each of the last three games, giving him 18 for the season and eight in the last 13 games. Carlton, who dropped his first four decisions and didn't win his first game until April 30, boosted his record to 14-8. The veteran left-hander struck out 10, giving him 178 on the season and the league lead, two ahead of Cincinnati's Mario Soto.

Expos 5, Cardinals 4 MONTREAL Andre Dawson blooped a one-out, opposite-field double down the right field line to drive in the winning run in the 11th inning after Tim Raines walked and stole secmnd. Montreal tied the game for the third time in the bottom of the eighth on Chris Speier's RBI single off St. Louis relief ace Bruce Sutter. The triumph was the Expos' fourth in a row.

Sutton pitched 51-3 Innings of no-hit ball before Joe Morgan singled. The 37-year-old right-hander lost his shutout bid when Reggie Smith homered with two out in the ninth inning.

Alan Trammell's sixth homer of the season and second grand slam of his career capped the Tigers' five- By The Associated Press The New York Yankees no longer have the exclusive rights to baseball's soap opera market. Chicago's got a show of its own and in the lastest episode LaMarr may have saved Tony's job.

But after the game, Tony got into a shouting match with Jimmy, the team's broadcaster, who has been criticizing his running of the team. It's all just another day in The Chicago White Sox Story. Friday night's cast of characters in alphabetical order are pitcher LaMarr Hoyt, Manager Tony LaRussa and announcer Jimmy Piersall. HOYT PITCHED eight-hit ball for 81-3 innings to become the American League's first 13-game winner and Carlton Fisk knocked in five runs as the White Sox defeated the Boston Red Sox 9-6. The victory was Chicago's fifth in 17 games since the AJl-Star break and came amid rumors that LaRussa may be fired soon.

Hoyt said the rumors made him work all the harder. "I feel like there's one person responsible for me being in the big leagues, and that's Tony LaRussa," Hoyt said. LaRussa has another problem though, and it's not the White Sox 50-49 record and their current slump. It's Piersall. After the game Piersall, LaRussa and White Sox Coach Jim Leyland got into a heated argument.

Piersall, who has been criticizing LaRussa's managerial strategy and lineups during his pregame and postgame shows, issued a statement that said LaRussa and Leyland threatened to make things tough for him. He added Leyland "went bananas and was all in my face." LaRussa denied anything physical occured during the confrontation. there have been certain things he has been saying about our ballclub and our players that I could just not stand for. I did it the way you should do it go face-to-face with the man," LaRussa said. YOU THOUGHT this sort of thing only happened to the Yankees and owner George Steinbrenner.

Hoyt, 13-9, walked three and struck out two before Sajome Barojas bailed him out when the Red Sox scored twice in the ninth. Chicago built a 9-1 lead with three-run innings in the first, third and fourth. Aurelio Rodriguez had two-run double in the first, Fisk had run-scoring singles in the first and third and capped the night with a three run homer in the fourth. Angela 2, Mariners 0 ANAHEIM Ken Forsch pitched a six-hitter to post his league-leading fourth shutout of the season and Doug DeCinces blasted a solo homer as the California posted its fourth straight victory. Forsch, 10-7, walked none and struck out one.

DeCinces' homer in the second, his 14th, gave California a 1-0 lead.
