WILLIE McCOVEY First-time favorite

Fan mail backing players, not clubs

By The Associated Press The hours have dwindled to a precious few in Chicago, Detroit and other cities where baseball fans are wondering if today’s hero will become tomorrow’s visiting player. Tonight, by one minute to midnight, those players who have declared free agency must sign with the clubs that still hold their rights, or wait until after May 1 to do so. The headliners in the group are Chicago White Sox catcher Carlton Fisk, Detroit Tigers outfielder Kirk Gibson and California Angels relief pitcher Donnie Moore. The failure of the clubs to retain those players who would be free to sign with other major league club after midnight will not set well with many of the fans. “It’s running 85, 90 percent in his (Fisk’s) favor in our mail,” White Sox vice president Ken Harrelson admitted Tuesday. But club owner Jerry Reuinsdorf assessed the White Sox’ chances of signing the 38-year-old slugger as “less than 50-

McCovey and Williams are up

NEW YORK (AP) - Willie McCovey made a big splash on the first day of his major league baseball career, and he’s in a position to do the same thing in his first of eligibility for the Hall of Fame. McCovey, on a sunny day in San Francisco in 1959, got four hits against Hall-of-Famer Robin Roberts of the Philadelphia Phillies. The most prolific left-handed home run hitter in National League history with 521 mostly with the San Francisco Giants McCovey and Billy Williams, who hit most of his 426 homers for the Chicago Cubs, are the big names who are eligible for enshrinement in the Hall of Fame for the first time. They, along with 38 others were on the ballots of baseball writers, whose votes will determine enshrinement. Results of voting conducted by writers will be announced tonight. To be elected, a player’s name must appear on 75 percent of the ballots. Excluding Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner, Christy Mathewson and Walter

50.” Reinsdorf said Fisk and the White Sox were far apart on money and other issues. “He only wants a three-year deal,” Reinsdorf said of Fisk, who hit 37 home runs and drove in 107 runs last season. “He thinks he deserves compensation ... but we have to consider that it’s doubtful he’d remain a premier player at age 41.” The White Sox would extend a three-year contract, but for each year of the deal, the dollar value would drop, Reinsdorf said. Contract length also is a stumbling block in Detroit, where the Tigers have offered Gibson a three-year deal worth nearly $4 million. The 28-year-old slugger, who hit .287 with 29 homers and 97 RBI, wants a five-year contract. Gibson’s agent, Doug Baldwin, said the Tigers made some slight changes in their offer, but would not budge on its length. He had said Gibson might be willing to accept a three-year deal with certain bonuses and clasues. “It’s getting real close,” said Baldwin, referring to the deadline, not the state of his negotiations with the Tigers.

Johnson the players enshrined when the Hall of Fame was opened in 1936 only 15 have made it in their first year of eligiblity. Pitchers Catfish Hunter and Jim Banning, two of the 27 holdover candidates, came closest to election last year, when 297 votes were needed. Bunning received 214 and Hunter 212. Hunter, Bunning and 1956 World Series hero Don Larsen, who also is on the ballot, share the distinction of having pitched perfect games. Bunning pitched his for Philadelphia against the New York Mets in 1964, his first season with the Phillies after nine with the Detroit Tigers. He was a 20-game winner in 1957 and a 19-game winner four other times. Hunter, whose move from Oakland to the New York Yankees in 1975 aftema decade with the A’s triggered the players’ rush to free agency and big-money contracts, pitched his against Minnesota in 1968. In 1971 he began a string of five consecutive seasons with 21 or mire victories.

Larsen, also a former Yankee, won only 81 games and lost 91 in 14 seasons with eight teams, compared to Bunning’s 224 wins in 17 years and Hunter’s 224 in 15. But Larsen saved his best for baseball’s premier event, the World Series, pitching his perfect game against the Brooklyn Dodgers. But Larsen, one of 15 pitchers on the 41man ballot and the only one with a losing record, has never come close to picking up the 300-or-so votes needed in 13 years of eligibility. If he doesn’t make it this year or next, he’ll be off the ballot and, three years hence, will be eligible for consideration by the Veterans Committee. Another former pitcher, J.R. Richard of the Houston Astros, is one of 14 players on the ballot for the first time. His career was cut short by a near-fatal stroke suffered during the 1980 season. He led the NL in strikeouts during 1978 and 1979. The 313 he racked up in 1979 set a league record for the most strikeouts by a right-hander. Roger Maris, who died last month, has been on the ballot every year since 1974. Knicks play good defense NEW YORK (AP) Coach Hubie Brown is proud of this season, it’s the New York Knicks’ defense. The Knicks, despite a 12-23 record, have given up an average of 101 points per game, best in the National Basketball Association. When it was suggested to Brown that Tuesday night’s 93-85 victory over Indiana was more a result of the Pacers’ futility than the Knicks’ defense, he was ready with a reply. “If it’s so easy to hold a team to 85 or under, as we have done three times in four games with the Pacers this season, then why doesn’t everyone else in the league do it?” Brown asked. “I know it wasn’t a pretty game, but we forced 31 turnovers and they got 24, which is eight more than our average. Give the players credit for that.” Brown said an important key to the game was holding Indiana center-forward Herb Williams to 3-for-17 shooting andnseven points, 11 under his average. In the three games New York has beaten Indiana this season, Williams has a total of 24 points on 7-for-38 shooting. In the Pacers’ 107-83 triumph on Dec. 6, Williams scored 37 points, then a career high.
