Dernier's homer wins it as Cubs beat Reds, 8-7
CHICAGO (AP) Eric Davis is baseball’s newest glamour boy, and even though he did all he could it wasn’t enough to keep the Chicago Cubs from defeating the Cincinnati Reds 8-7. Davis, who had missed the past five games because of a shoulder injury suffered last Friday night, hit his major league-leading 16th homer, a three-run shot that carried 470 feet, and then doubled in two runs with two outs in the ninth to tie the game Thursday. But Bobby Dernier’s two-out homer in the bottom of the ninth off John Franco carried the Cubs to their sixth victory in the past seven games. “Each day it’s someone else,” Dernier said. “Of course you’re thinking home run with two outs and the wind blowing out. But I don’t hit home runs to centerfield.” The homer, Dernier’s third of the season, the fourth by the Cubs and the seventh of the game, carried to the 400-foot mark in center field. “I can’t remember the last time I hit one to center,” Dernier said. “Maybe in Triple-A. But I knew it was gone the minute it hit the bat. ” Franco, giving up his first run in 14 appearances and 14 1-3 innings this season, had a different version. “He hit it good but I didn’t think it would go out,” said Franco, 1-1. “But the wind caught it, and it just kept carrying. This is one of the worst places to pitch in, and I’m sure I’m not the only one who thinks so.” Manager Pete Rose added: “It was just one of those days. We got one run because of the wind, they got five. Dunston’s was a joke, a pop up.” Cardinals 7, Braves 2 The game was pretty much in hand for the St. Louis Cardinals when Ken Dayley came out of the bullpen for anything but a routine outing. The Cardinals led the Atlanta Braves 7-2 when Dayley replaced starter Bob Forsch in the eighth inning Thursday night. The Braves had runners on first and third. Dayley got out of that, aided by a double play, and retired all three batters he faced in the ninth inning. It was an impressive return for the left-hander who went on the disabled list July 13, 1986 and underwent surgery on his pitching elbow last October. “I feel relief and gratitude. It’s hard to believe,” said the former Braves pitcher. “When you undergo major surgery and pitching is your life, you look at other opportunities. It’s just amazing. I guess that’s a credit to modern medicine. Thanks to Dr. Jobe and thank the Lord.” Dayley had the surgery performed by Dr. Frank Jobe, who repaired damaged ligaments on the inside of the elbow and transferred nerves. Strong relief pitching by Dayley and fine pitching and hitting by starter Bob Forsch paced the first-place Cardinals, who remained .007 percentage points ahead of Chicago in the NLEast. The Cubs edged Cincinnati 8-7, while Philadelphia handed Los Angeles its sixth straight loss, 6-3. Forsch allowed 10 hits but only two runs and helped himself with two hits and two RBI. Terry Pendleton extended his hitting streak to 15 games with a tworun double in the third inning as St. Louis won for the seventh time in eight games. Phillies 6, Dodgers 3 Jeff Stone hit a two-run homer in the first inning, Juan Samuel and Luis Aguayo later got solo home runs and the Phillies won for the fifth time in six games. Los Angeles got consecutive home runs from Pedro Guerrero and Mickey Hatcher in the second. Phillies Manager John Felske likes what he sees from Stone, with whom he feuded in spring training. “He’s much more under control,” Felske said. “His confidence has grown. He now does a lot more things right than wrong. That’s what we’re looking for.” Mike Schmidt left the game after

five innings with what the Phillies said was a mild strain of the right side. Indians 6, Twins 3 Some of the best advice Cory Snyder got during the worst slump of his career came from an unexpected source pitcher Steve Carlton. “He just talks to me before games,” Snyder said Thursday night after he hit three solo home runs as the Cleveland Indians beat the Minnesota Twins 6-3. “He tells me to get a mental picture of the game, to see yourself hitting the ball well.” It was the only game played Thursday in the American League. Snyder had only seven hits in his previous 70 at bats before he hit two solo homers off Bert Blyleven and another one off Mark Portugal for his first three-homer effort in the major leagues and only the 14th in Indians’ history. Joe Carter was the last Indian to hit three homers in a game. He did it August 29, 1986 against the Boston Red Sox. Carlton, who hit 13 career homers while pitching in the National League, joined with batting coach Bobby Bonds to keep Snyder’s spirits up during the slump. “I knew I could come back,” Snyder said. “I know what kind of player I am.” Blyleven, 3-4, also gave up solo homers to Tony Bernazard, his fifth, and Mel Hall, his sixth, in five innings of work. Blyleven has allowed 19 homers, most in the majors, after surrendering a major league-record 50 last season.
