"We're struggling a little bit for sure" Gastonia manager Orlando Gomez said The Rangers mustered just one run in the first 10 innings but held a 1-0 lead after seven innings Gastonia pitcher Mike Amer walked Spartanburg's Gil Valencia to open the eighth It was the only walk allowed by Amer who struck out 10 Two outs later with Valencia at third Gastonia second baseman Joey Ward low mishandled a routine ground ball Valencia scored the tying run Two mistakes Two small mis Gastonia totaled seven hits just one after the fifth inning "Everybody's been trying to pick everybody else up" Scruggs said "We just haven't been able to do it so far "We need to start scoring some runs" Notes: The teams play the third of a four-game series tonight at 7 at Sims Park Gastonia's Brian Romero (2-0) faces

Gastonia as it had in Saturday's loss mounted a late threat In the bottom of the I I th Timmie Morrow walked Joey Wardlow singled and Tony Scruggs walked to load the bases with no outs But Spartanburg's Mike Sullivan who earned his fifth save struck out Randy Marshall and got Mike Burton to ground into a force play before Craig Newkirk flied out to center takes But enough to send a struggling team to its fourth straight defeat "I make that play 100 times" Ward low said "1 just messed it up" "That's the breaks" Amer said "If 1 hadn't walked him he wouldn't have had to make the play" Spartanburg won the game three innings later after Amer and John Graves had combined for 15 strikeouts and limited the Phil lies to five hits in 10 innings Eric Bickhardt (3-2) surrendered a two-out walk to Tom Hardgrove Nick Santa Cruz fol GASTONIA The first effect of weak hitting is obvious a lack of runs The second effect though is just as damaging Every inning without offensive support puts more pressure on pitchers to be perfect more pressure on defenders not to err It was the latter that doomed the Gastonia Rangers Sunday as they dropped a 4-2 11-inning decision tothe

haven't caught and I'm 1-7 going looking for them" "Harold is one of the best 4aft friends I ever had" said Winston Cup director Dick Beaty "We're going to miss him 30 NASCAR spokesman Chip Wil2 hams

Jarrett and Parsons were sidelined "It was like bumper cars out there" said Jarrett Earlier on Lap 78 pole winner Bill Elliott's car almost got air borne off Turn 2 after he slid into to Rob Moroso's car and slipped sideways Dick Trickle became an innocent victim spinning in the )-- grass almost the length of the back- 1 1-7 stretch Elliott and Trickle continued DUO after extensive repairs but

of action sidelined after only three laps with an engine problem 3 "This isn't the way we planned it" said Cope "The car felt good I and I thought we had something Ist good to run with again Then the motor went flat We'll just forget this and head to Charlotte (for the I Coca-Cola 600 on May 27) and do the best we can" The Winston Million goes to a driver winning three of the sport's i 0 a 0 Big Four races in the same season 't The others are the 600 and the tI 1 '0 Southern 500 at Darlington (SC) 1 4 Raceway on Labor Day weekend nt Only Cope and Earnhardt can win 0 the $1 million now IONSOCCERSO Continued From Page IC Thunder" and almost pulled off a Hollywood-type triumph in the debut for his new team owned by actor Paul Newman and Charlottean Rick Hendrick was beaming afterward almost as if he'd won "It was great There was a little cat and mouse going on" said Sacks winner of only the 1985 Pepsi 500 at Daytona Beach Fla "Dale was real strong We just came up a lap short I think if it wasn't for the traffic on the last lap I would have had a better shot at the win As it turned out I wish I had made my move a lap earlier "This team (led by Gary De Hart who was named the race's top mechanic in his debut as a crew chief) is going to win some races from here on out" Sacks led 35 laps and concededly had Earnhardt worried "because it seemed he could go to the front anytime he wanted to" The potent EarnhardtSacks performance gave Chevy a major triumph on the first anniversary of its introduction of the Lumina model Ken Schrader appeared to make it a three-Lumina chase for the checkered flag leading 20 laps and racing right with Earnhardt and Sacks in a display of the aerodynamic "drafting" technique that comes into play at high speeds However Schrader's engine soured on Lap 154 and he fell out Finishing third through sixth in the lead lap were Mark Martin Ford Ernie Irvan Olds Michael Waltrip Pontiac and Terry Labonte Olds Martin was about five seconds behind the two leaders who simply sped away after the seventh and final caution period during Laps 169-171 "I tell you what the No I 8 car (Sacks) could push the No 3 car (Earnhardt) so fast in the draft that I don't think anybody could keep up with them" Martin said "A few times we hung on in the draft but it was for dear life I think Sacks was the strongest Earnhardt must have done a real good job on the last lap to win the race" Said Irvan: "I tried everything I could to get by Mark the last lap I could come up on him but couldn't get beside him" Placing seventh through 10th were Kyle Petty Pontiac Morgan Shepherd Ford Hut Stricklin Buick and Darrell Waltrip Chevy The showing made Shepherd nine for nine in top 10 finishes this season but he lost 38 points to Earnhardt in the race for the Winston Cup championship and now trails by 90 going into Coca-Cola 600 month at Charlotte Motor Speedway The Charlotte track opens Tuesday for 15 days of activity overall that features the 600 on May 27 "I'm really looking forward to going home to Charlotte" said Earnhardt who joined Daytona 500 champion Derrike Cope as a candidate for the Winston Million bonus which goes to a driver winning three of NASCAR's Big Four races "We've had bad luck there lately but it has been a good track for us in the past and it can be again" ala Si privet Cu Laps Earnings Reason not 1 5 Dale
