Six twin-killings enough double trouble for Bosox

By The Associated Press If the double play is a pitcher’s best friend, as they say, then the Boston Red Sox were their own worst enemies. The Red Sox, who hold the major league record for hitting into double plays, grounded into six of them Friday and the result was a 13-9 defeat at the hands of the red-hot Detroit Tigers. “We’ve been waiting to get more runs and we got them, but those were big double plays in every inning,” said Tiger second baseman Lou Whitaker. The Tigers needed every one of the twin-killings. After erupting for eight runs in the top of the first, they gave up five runs in the bottom of the inning, then held on for their eighth straight victory, their best start in history.

In other AL action, it was Chicago 5, New York 3; Kansas City 6, Milwaukee 3; Minnesota 4, Seattle 3; Toronto 3, Texas 2 and Oakland 2, California 1. Detroit sent 13 batters to the plate in the first, shelling southpaw Bruce Hurst, who had not allowed an earned in two previous starts on the road. Chet Lemon keyed the rally with a two-run single. Boston came back to knock out Detroit’s Milt Wilcox by scoring five runs in the bottom of the inning, including a rallycapping solo homer by Rich Gedman. The Tigers then turned to their defense to keep Boston at bay. The Red Sox wound up as only the sixth team in major league history, the fifth in the AL, to hit into six double plays in a nine-inning game. The last was the Cleveland Indians against the New York Yankees in 1975. “If we can score nine runs and hit into 20 double plays a game, I’ll take it we’ll win the pennant,” Boston Manager Ralph Houk said in shaking off the twin-killings. The Red Sox set a major league record by grounding into 171 DPs in 1982, then equaled that mark last year. White Sox 5, Yankees 3 Greg Walker’s three-run homer capped a four-run first inning and Rudy Law tripled twice and scored two runs as Chicago downed New York. Winner Floyd Bannister allowed five hits over six innings, striking out two and walking three. Two relievers Checkers knot playoff series INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Garth MacGuigan scored two empty net goals 61 seconds apart Friday as the Indianapolis Checkers downed Denver 6-3 to even the Central Hockey League semifinal playoff after four games. Indianapolis, which lost the first two games in the best-of-seven series, took the lead for good with second period goals by Red Laurence, Kevin Devine and Jacques Sylvestre. Indianapolis is seeking its third consecutive Adams Cup.

Rose victimizes Phillies for 4,000

By The Associated Press Pete Rose made a big hit with his new fans. In his home debut Friday with the Montreal Expos, Rose doubled in the fourth inning for his 4,000 th career hit. It came on a 1-1 pitch from Philadelphia left-hander Jerry Koosman and made Rose the only National Leaguer to reach that lofty plateau. The only other major leaguer to surpass that mark was Ty Cobb, who had a major league record 4,191 hits, all in the American League. Rose now takes aim at Cobb’s record, needing 191 more hits. “My pride will drive me,” said Rose, who turned 43 today and most likely will need at least another season to complete his chase of Cobb. “I’m going to play as long as I can produce. If I’m producing, I’m having fun.” Rose’s double, a line drive into the right-field corner, figured in a two-run inning that gave Montreal a 4-1 lead en route to

finished up, with Ron Reed pitching the final 2 2-3 innings and working out of a base*- loaded, one-out jam in the seventh, to gain his second save. “I knew I hit it good but I knew it was a long way out there, too,” said Walker of his homer over the center field fence in cavernous Yankee Stadium. Twins 4, Mariners 3 Tom Brunansky’s run-scoring single in the bottom of the ninth inning capped a two-run rally, boosting Minnesota over Seattle. Ron Davis got the victory, although giving up consecutive homers by Alvin Davis and Ricky Nelson which gave the Mariners a 3-2 lead in the top of the ninth. A’s 2, Angels 1 Dwayne Murphy scored on a wild pitch by Tommy John with one out in the bottom of the nin-

their 5-1 victory over the Phillies, with whom Rose played the previous five seasons. Right-hander Charlie Lea worked 8 2-3 innings, yielding five hits, and Tim Raines drove in two runs for the Expos. After the historic double, the crowd of 48,060 at Olympic Stadium gave Rose a twominute standing ovation. Rose was awarded the ball, which he gave to Montreal batting coach Billy DeMars, who was a Philadelphia coach in 1981 when Rose broke Stan Musial’s NL record with 3,631 hits. “I’m glad I got the hit today because I have a lot of friends over there,” Rose said of the Phillies. “I didn’t do it as if to say ‘take that.’ I have a lot of respect for the organization. I’m sure they were pulling for me.” In the rest of the league, Houston edged Cincinnati 1-0, St. Louis beat Pittsburgh 4-1, Chicago defeated New York 112, San Diego beat Atlanta 5-2

th to give Oakland its victory over California. Murphy grounded a single up the middle off John, who had allowed only four hits through eight innings, and Murphy went to third on a single by Carney Lansford. John’s first pitch to Jeff Burroughs was in the dirt and got past catcher Bob Boone, allowing Murphy to score from third. Blue Jays 3, Rangers 2 Dave Collins snapped a tie in the ninth inning with an RBI single, leading Toronto over Texas. Dennis Lamp gained the win for the Blue Jays, pitching 11-3 scoreless innings. Royals 6, Brewers 3 Pat Sheridan and Jorge Orta each drove in two runs in support of unbeaten Bud Black as Kansas City whipped Milwaukee.

and Los Angeles shut out San Francisco 2-0. Astros 1, RedsO Kevin Bass doubled to lead off the seventh inning, breaking up a no-hit bid by the Reds’ Mario Soto, and Houston broke a fivegame losing streak with an unearned run. Joe Niekro earned his first victory in three decisions, scattering five hits over 7 2-3 innings before needing help from Frank DiPino. One out after Bass’ hit, Jerry Mumphrey singled, and Bass scored when left fielder Duane Walker hobbled the ball for an error. Soto retiredlß of the first 19 Astros batters, yielding only a walk to Ray Knight in the second inning. He left for a pinch hitter in the eighth after striking out six batters Cards 4, Pirates 1 Ozzie Smith hit the seventh home run of his major league career, a two-out, three-run shot in the seventh inning that snapped a 1-1 tie and helped St.

Not-so-grand ending to Indians' evening By The Associated Press Denver had just taken a 5-4 lead in what had been a close American Association game with the Indianapolis Indians when Daryl Boston came to bat with the bases loaded. Boston’s hit, a grand slam, changing the game’s entire complexion, and the Bears went on to post a 10-4 win Friday night. In other AA action, Louisville pounded Oklahoma City 10-4, Omaha got by Evansville 6-3 and Wichita edged lowa 3-2 in 10 innings. In Indianapolis, Ted Wilborn drove home the first run of the decisive eighth inning, singling with the bases loaded to break the 4-4 deadlock. Bert Roberge, 2-0, held the Indians to one hit and no runs as he pitched the last three innings tor the victory. Craig Eaton, 2-3, took the loss for the Indians. Dave Van Gorder sent Eric Davis home on a RBI single for the Aeros’ lOth-inning victory in Wichita. Davis also doubled in one run and scored another for Wichita.

Schlichter in future of Colts? NEW YORK (AP) Quarterback Art Schlichter’s future in the National Football League likely will be decided “later this spring,” according to league officials. A league spokesman said Friday that NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle met with the suspended Colts’ player and his representatives for about two hours and told them the decision would be made “after reviewing all available information.” “We do not plan to make any further comment until that decision has been made,” Joe Browne, the NFL’s director of information, said. Schlichter, 24, was suspended indefinitely last year by the NFL because of his gambling activities. A 1982 first-round draft pick by the Baltimore Colts, Schlichter admitted gambling $389,000, mostly on pro sports teams. Four men with whom Schlichter gambled threatened to tell the Colts of his activities when he couldn’t pay his debts. Schlichter, instead, began cooperating with the FBI in their arrest. He was not mentioned in the indictments charging them with traveling in interstate commerce to promote a gambling activity. Rozelle said last year that Schlichter admitted placing “sizable bets on at least 10 NFL games during the 1982 season and postseason” and on other professional team sports.

Louis spoil a fine outing by Pirates left-hander John Candelaria. Candelaria struck out 11 and yielded only four hits before leaving for a pinch hitter in the eighth inning. Dave LaPoint scattered seven hits in sevenplus innings for the victory, and Bruce Sutter earned his second save. A passed ball by Pirates catcher Tony Pena opened the door for Smith’s homer. With two out, Candelaria had David Green fanned, but Pena let ball get by him, and Green reached first safely. Candelaria then walked Art Howe, and Smith hit his homer. Cubsll,Mets2 Jody Davis, Ron Cey and Gary Matthews each homered, and Steve Trout scattered seven hits in going the distance for Chicago.
