The Spirit was a team that still had confidence after a ftirious four-run rally by the A's put them ahead, 6-5. "They came back in encouraging one another, and it was good to see," Mahlberg said.

"We knew we'd get at least a tie when we came back in," Twitty said. "We have a lot of guys on the team who wouldn't quit." After A's reliever Todd Ingram (4-5) gave up consecutive singles to Ryan Free-burg and Tim Scott, Burnett's bunt-single loaded the bases. Then it was Tim Demerson's turn as he skipped a single to right field, scoring Freeburg and tying the game, 6-6. Ingram's next offering was a wild pitch catcher Izzy Molina couldn't handle, and Scott scampered home for the game-winner. Spirit starter Carlos Perez (2-3) went eight innings, scattering seven hits and three earned runs while striking out three.

Spirit notes According to Spirit manager Greg Mahlberg, it was injuries that forced the to send Tim Cooper to Prince William Spirit catchers Mike Flgga and Jeff Motuzat are listed as day-to-day after injuries suffered In Friday night's bench-clearing brawl vs. the Angels. Figga can't open his left eye and Motuzas has a broken nose Angels right-hander Michael Ros-slter (3-1, 4.50) will go against either righthander John Sutherland (3-4, 3.18) or righthander Rick Sutch (0-2, 5.76) today Game time is set (or 4:05 p.m. By Jeff Wong, Sun Sports Writer SAN BERNARDINO Eight hours before the San Bernardino Spirit dispatched the Modesto A's, 7-6, on Saturday night, the call came for infielder Tim Cooper, and it was a call that Spirit manager Greg Mahlberg dreaded. On the phone was the faceless force of the New York Yankees, telling Mahlberg that the club was sending Cooper to its Sin-gle-A Carolina League affiliate at Prince William.

As Mahlberg spoke about it, all he could do was shake his head. Cooper was the second Spirit player moved by his parent organization this week. Pitcher Tim Smith was sent by the Oakland A's to Triple-A Tacoma in the Pacific Coast League on a temporary assignment. Oddly enough, the Spirit (3-1) is playing better despite the roster moves in the past week. For the second straight game, the Spirit broke double digits in hits, garnering a season-high 19 for the 1,745 fans at Fiscali-ni Field.

The hits from unexpected players, like Sean Twitty, who went 3-for-5 with two RBI against the A's (2-2). On the season, Twitty is batting .250. "It's confidence, mostly," Twitty said.

You make it sound like everybody calling sports-talk radio wants to talk about (Darryl) Strawbeny. If you even bothered to listen to sports radio for at least 15 minutes, you would have found out that we don't just talk about Strawberry. We talk about the NBA Finals, the Stanley Cup finals, baseball, basketball, football, hockey, etc.

It's something any normal, intelligent sports editor would enjoy listening to. So, Mr. Oberjuerge, why don't you go back to listening to your easy-listening music and Rush Limbaugh and stop insulting The San Bernardino Sun readers. KEVIN LUCAS Moreno Vallay ITS THE FANS' GAME: It's another season of baseball and the All-Star Game is coming up. It's also the time of the year when the fans start their moaning and complaining about who should and shouldn't go to the game.

The fans vote who they want to see. There has never been a rule stating that this should be done on the basis of the statistics of the ballplayer for the first half of the season, the past season, the player's career of just for the heck Dfit. This game is for the fans to vote on and, hopefully, see their dream teams play one game a year.

Charles Shaw was airlifted to University Medical Center in Las Vegas, where he died from his injuries about an hour later, Harney said.

P20565SR-15 BLK Quakes drop 7th consecutive By DOUQ PADILLA Special to The Sun RANCHO CUCAMONGA Their determination, if nothing else, has given Rancho Cucamonga Quakes manager Keith Champion reason for optimism in a disastrous week and a half. The Quakes lost their seventh game in a row Saturday, 12-6, to the Riverside Pilots before 5,104 at the Epicenter.

The team's only positive showing during the last 10 days was their production in Tuesday's All-Star game when pitcher Jeff Brown picked up the victory and Sean Drinkwater was named MVP. Neither could help the Quakes Saturday as Brown gave up eight runs, six earned, in four innings and Drinkwater was one of three Quakes to go 0-for-5. "You are going to have good days and you are going to have bad days," Champion said. "The guys with the least amount of bad days have the better chance of getting to the big leagues." The days of late for the Quakes have been downright awful. But the last two games the team has fought back in the late innings to make a respectable showing.

The had four runs in the eighth inning and one more in the ninth before bowing out to the Pilots. On Friday against the Quakes the team scored one run in the eighth and five in the ninth during a 14-6 loss to High Desert. The Pilots scored four runs in the second inning all with two outs. The first run came on a solo home run to left by Pilots shortstop Craig Bryant, his first of the season. In the third inning Fred McNair and James Bon-nici hit back-to-back home runs for a 6-0 lead.

On the first pitch after Bonnici's home run, Brown hit Bryant with a pitch on the left arm. Bryant took steps toward the mound and then turned toward first base, as both benches and bullpens emptied onto the infield. Umpires Jeff Patterson and Ian Lamplugh kept both sides apart and quickly restored order without any confrontations.
