Sports Jays By Larry Whiteside GLOBE STAFF ATLANTA Dave Winfield's two-run, two-out double down the left-field line lifted the Blue Jays to a dramatic 4-3 LB then executed a sacrifice bunt, putting Blauser in scoring position. Then, hoping for a miracle, Braves manager Bobby Cox went into his bag of tricks, and actually found one. First, he sent up Lonnie Smith, whose grand slam made him the hero of Game 5. Smith walked.

Next, Cox sent up Francisco Cabrera, the hero of the National League playoffs. Cabrera almost gave the crowd heart failure with his line-drive out to left, which Candy Maldonado nearly misjudged. Henke got two quick strikes on Nixon, and the Mike Timlin threw out Otis Nixon attempting to reach on a bunt with the tying run on third. It would have been an improbable comeback. The Braves already had staged a ninth-inning rally to send the game into extra innings.

Nixon's two-out single to left off Toronto closer Tom Henke scored Jeff Blauser from second base and tied the game, 2-2. With three outs to go, the scene had been set for a Blue Jay celebration. Henke took over and victory seemed assured. But that was hardly the case after Blauser led off with a single past short. Damon Berryhill Braves were down to their last strike.

Nixon hit the next offering on the ground between short and third, scoring Blauser and sending Atlanta fans into temporary ecstasy-Blue Jays starter David Cone had done his part, holding the Braves to only one run and four hits in six innings before turning it over to the Blue Jay bullpen. That was two innings longer than Braves starter Steve Avery lasted, as he exited after four innings, trailing, 2-1.

The Eagles recorded their sixth triumph of the season, clinched their first winning season since 1986 and, in the process, bolstered their chances for a bowl bid. The Eagles, however, made it look very uneasy in the Big Easy as they battled Tulane to the hilt in rallying from a 7-3 halftime deficit to take a 10-7 lead on a 5-yard run by Chuckie Dukes. Darnell Campbell then gave the Eagles some badly needed breathing room, 17-7, when he scored on a 5-yard burst with 10:56 remaining. But the Green Wave continued to make the Eagles uneasy, as Joey Perry scored on a 1-yard run with 2:16 to play. The score was set up by Ursin's 27-yard catch to the 1.

Coach Buddy Tee-vens, formerly of Dartmouth, elected to go for the 2-point conversion, but it failed. The Eagles ran out the clock, and finally Coughlin could breathe easy. Just as it did a week ago at Penn.State, BC's defense staved off a late Tulane threat when Shawn Meadows hit Ursin with back-to-back passes of 15 and 9 yards. After Bret Ducre carried for a 1-yard gain, Meadows found Steve Ballard sitting in the soft underbelly of BC's prevent defense and hit him with an 18-yard pass to the 16. After he jarred Ursin loose from an apparent TD catch, Charlie Brennan intercepted Meadows in the end zone with 6:10 remaining, ending the threat.

Tulane won the toss and elected to receive, which proved a wise move four plays later, as Meadows converted a third-and-7 play from the Tulane 24 by hitting Ursin with a strike at mid-field. BC freshman defensive back Tony Ransome tripped at the 50, allowing Ursin- to streak 76 vards for the touchdown. I By Kevin Paul Dupont GLOBE STAFF WANCOUVER, British Columbia For the foreseeable future especially since the immediate past has been so productive they will saddle up on the same line. Adam, with L'il Joe on one side and Dmitri on the other. If only they could convince their Russian brother to change his name to Hoss, they would be the Bruins' perfect "Bonanza Line." Becoming more inseparable on the ice than the Cartwright kids, Adam Oates, Joe Juneau and Dmitri Kvartalnov (maybe it's Russian for Cartwright?) have been among the hottest scoring trios in the first three weeks of the NHL season.

They combined for two goals and three assists in Friday night's impressive 6-3 win in Edmonton and in seven games are averaging more than five points per night (12-25-37). 4 BRUINS, Page 54 It GLOBE PHOTO VIA AP BC running back Chuckle Dukes has a couple of Tulane defenders hot on his trail during one of his 29 pushes, which produced 142 yards and touchdown. i A.
