  • Sports The Western Carolinian Page 5 Thursday, July 20,1989 Bo Leads Off With A Bang; American Orioles, Montreal Lead Pennant LeagueWinsAll Star Game 5-3 Race at Mid-Season Break Baseball Cats Take Academic Honors By Perryn Oglesby Anaheim, Calif. — On Tuesday, July 11, the 60th Major League All-Star Game was played in beautiful southern California. Bo Jackson, of the Kansas City Royals, led the way to a 5-3 American League victory and did so in an impressive fashion. After falling behind 2-0 in the top of the first inning, the American League struck back in a big way. Bo Jackson, in his first All-Star game, started things off on the first pitch from National League starting pitcher Rick Reuschel. Reuschel served up a 400 foot plus home run to Jackson, and the lead was quickly cut to 2-1 in favor of the National League. The score was tied as Wade Boggs of the Boston Red Sox followed Jackson's homer with one of his own. Jackson's lead-off home run was the first since Joe Morgan's lead-off home run in the 1977 All-Star Game. The two home runs back to back were the first in over a decade. Nolan Ryan of the Texas Rangers entered the game to relieve Dave Stewart in the second inning. The National League only managed one hit against pitchers Ryan, Marc Gubicza, and Mike More from the second inning until the fifth. Ryan had three strikeouts in his two inning appearance. While the National League struggled at the plate, the American League continued to add to their lead. Harold Baincs and Ruben Sierra added an RBI apiece to go with Jackson's second RBI of the game. At the end of the third inning, the American League was in command with a 5- 2 lead and well on their way to victory. The National League only managed to score one more run in the late innings. Greg Swindell and Doug Jones of the Cleveland Indians combined to close the door on any hopes of a National League comeback. Bo Jackson received Most Valuable Player honors in Tuesday's game. Jackson finished the night with ahome run, a single, two RBI, a stolen base, and a run-saving catch in the first inning. Jackson not only plays baseball, but also has a "hobby" of playing football for the Los Angeles Raiders. He is the only two-sport star on the professional level, and his accomplishments may inspire others to follow in his footsteps. ' Even with all of the attention, Jackson keeps a level head. When asked about his lead-off home run, Jackson said, "I just got a piece of it." By Perryn Oglesby In baseball, there are always surprises from week to week. But who would have thought that the Baltimore Orioles would be in first place in the American League East at the All- Star break? Orioles Manager Frank Robinson went into preseason camp just trying to improve on last year's last place finish. By adding some new faces and giving the Orioles a renewed spirit, Robinson has his club playing championship baseball midway through the season. Baltimore has a 5 1/2 game lead over the New York Yankees and is aiming to extend the lead in the American League East. The American League West is somewhat closer going into the break. There are four teams battling for the top spot, with California having a slim lead over Oakland, Kansas City, and Texas. In the National League, new faces have risen to stardom. The National League West has the San Francisco Giants leading the way. Kevin Mitchell of the Giants has burst onto the scene with a league-leading 31 home runs and 81 RBI. Will Clark of the Giants is also on fire with a .332 batting average and 64 RBI. Houston is close on their heels and only 2 games back. Jumping to the National League East: What is wrong with baseball's so-called "best team"? The New York Mets have been struggling due to injuries to key players. However, they have managed to stay in the hunt and only trail league-leading Montreal by 2 1/2 games. The Chicago Cubs are in second place, one game in front of New York and 1 1/2 back of the Montreal Expos. St. Louis is also in contention and only 3 games out of first. These records clearly indicate that the National League East has the closest penant race in the Major Leagues. The All-Star break came at a good time for teams that are suffering from injuries. The break may give them enough rest to get on track for the final half of the year. However, teams that are hot may have preferred to continue playing. The Orioles are going to be tested in the second half of the season to see if they are for real, while Kevin Mitchell of the Giants will have pressure on him to continue his unbelievable start.

This, however, is not the case for several of Western Carolina University's football players. August is almost here and football practice will soon be in full swing. For those players who are in Cullowhee over the summer, workouts have already begun. To prepare for the upcoming season, physical conditioning is a must. Running, lifting weights, and adjusting to the heat can only help prepare the players for the tough pre-season Derrick Harrison, Johnny Parton, Terrell Wagner, Coach Williamson, and Fred Robbs on an afternoon run. workouts ahead.

Five players had a 3.75 or above. In addition, the residence hall floor housing the majority of the baseball players ranked among the top four dormitory halls on campus based on GPA. The baseball hallway topped all but Western Carolina's two honor halls last fall, when 12 of the 28 players posted a 3.0 or above. "Once again the players did an excellent job in their schoolwork in what was a very busy time for them," commented WCU head coach Jack Leggett, who has guided the Catamounts to a record-setting five consecutive Southern Conference championships. "Again, they showed a front. Derrick Harrison, who has been a starter for the past several years, is excited about his upcoming senior campaign. When asked about the pre-season practice schedule implemented by new Head Football Coach Dale Strom, Harrison said: "I'm an athlete and I'm going to be ready for practice in August." True to his word, Harrison, along with some of his teammates, works out on a regular basis and feels good about the team's chances for the 1989 Catamount season. lot of discipline and managed their time well to post such good grades while being in practice and away on road trips so often. I'm just as proud of their academic achievements as I am of their athletic accomplishments," he added. Those honored on the spring semester Dean's List with a 3.0 GPA or better were catcher Dwayne Bradley, with a 3.14 GPA and a major in Computer Science; pitcher Brian Huie, 3.00, Marketing; pitcher Jack Kimel, 3.77, Business; pitcher Stewart Keyes, 3.80, Finance; pitcher Paul Menhart, 3.08, General Education; designated hitter Mark Poarch, 3.80, Marketing; pitcher Jeff Stevens, 3.83, Physical Education; and pitcher Gary Volpe, 3.77, Computer Information Systems. "These individuals are great representatives of our baseball team," said Leggett. "The pride and hard work that the players put into their classes are reflected in how they do athletically." Allison Leads the Pack in NASCAR's Pepsi 400 By Tony Bolick Daytona Beach, Fla. — Davey Allison rallied from a misfiring engine early to win the Pepsi 400. Allison and his crew took advantage of cautions for rain and one caution for an accident to remedy the miss and charge to a sixth career win, their second this season. Allison held off Morgan Shepherd, Bill Elliott, and Phil Parsons in a wreck-strewn race that saw an uproar from the drivers about the restrictor plates mandated for the 2.5 mile tracks at Daytona and Talladega. The plate is bolted between the carburetor and the engine and has 15/16" holes that restrict air fuel mixture to the engine, thus reducing horsepower. Three multi-car crashes and two accidents in traffic were directly attributed to the plate by the Winston Cup drivers. Lake Speed's Oldsmobile became the third car to get airborne in the last 4 races at Daytona. In all, twelve cautions flew over the field for 41 laps. Completing the top 10 were Alan Kulwicki, Terry Labonte, Sterling Martin, Dick Trickle, Ricky Rudd, and rookie sensation Hut Stricklin. Points leader Dale Earnhardt led 33 laps, second to Elliott, who led 50. Earnhardt lost 2 laps after unscheduled pit stops for an equalized tire, but still holds a commanding lead of 124 points over Rusty Wallace and 157 points over Darrell Waltrip as the Winston Cup Series begins the second half of the season. The next race is the July 23 AC Spark Plug meet in Pocono, Pa. ESPN will have live coverage. INTERESTED IN SALES?

Penske is rumored to want to return to NASCAR but only if he can get a driver like Rusty Wallace. Wallace is making no comment. -Unocal has put up a $7,600 per race "skins game" bonus for the pole-winner if he wins the race. Since Wallace won the bonus in the second race of the year at Rockingham, N.C, no one has won from the pole.
