The Michigan Daily-Saturday, April 8, 1978-Page 7 TIGERS BEL T THREE OFF EX-MA TE: etroit overpowers Toronto 6-2: .en* * e.********* *.*.*'**... Men netters ground a By JAMIE TURNER - For an inning and a half, the Toronto Blue Jays had the 52,528 fans at Tiger Stadium wondering if the 1978 Detroit club was as good as its early preseason notices. Trailing 2-0 the Tigers came thundering back to take the season opener 6-2 and show that the team's potential is indeed as good as adver- tised. Mark "The Bird" Fidrych settled down from a shaky start to shut out the Jays the rest of the way while Milt May, Phil Mankowski and Jason Thompson blasted homers off two different Toron- to pitchers to ice the game. BUT WHAT the crowd had on their mind when the game ended was the gangly Fidrych, who displayed the same kind of magic that he possessed in his rookie season in going the full nine innings and giving up only five hits. Af- ter the game ended the crowd remained, insisting on Fidrych retur- ning for the now customary curtain call. The crowd roared throughout the nin- th inning, reaching the highest pitch when Fidrych ran around the mound with two out, trying to grab four hot dog wrappers thgt had blown onto the field. "What happens if a ball hits it and deflects off it?" said Fidrych after- ward. "Besides, it's better to have the batter sitting around waiting while I pick them up." FORMER TIGER pitcher Dave Lemanczyk drew the starting assign- ment for Toronto and successfully baf- fled the Tigers the first time through the batting order. But one look at the righthander was enough for the Bengal batters as they started hitting the ball solidly. DETROIT May brought Detroit within one with his second inning solo blast into the up- per deck. In the third, left-fielder Steve Kemp drove in the tying run with a single to left after third baseman Mankowski had singled and moved to second on designated hitter Rusty Staub's single up the middle. Detroit broke it open in the fourth when rookie second sacker Lou Whitaker doubled, keystone partner Alan Trammell walked and Mankowski lined a one strike pitch eight rows deep in the right field upper deck to give the locals a 5-2 lead. LEMANCZYK LEFT the proceedings at this point and Jesse Jefferson did a solid job the rest of the way, giving up only Thompson's towering blast which landed on the right field roof in the seventh. The win broke a string of five Opening Day losses in a row for the Tigers while continuing their mastery of the Blue Jays at Tiger Stadium (8-0). Jim Slaton will make his first start for the Tigers in today's game and will be opposed by Toronto's Jerry Garvin. feisty Gophers, 5-4 By ERIC OLSON Not everyone liked the balmy weather yesterday, including Michigan's mens tennis team. Playing their first match of the season outside, the netters battled high winds and a tough Minnesota Gopher squad to squeeze out a 5-4 victory. "This was our first match outdoors and it is very difficult to make the switch from playing indoors to outdoors and Minnesota has played outside before," said Wolverine Coach Brian Eisner. "The wind, which favors the lesser player, made it hard for us to play the way we wanted to," added Eisner. At number one singles, Michigan's Jeff Etterbeek stopped Minnesota's Mark Brandenburg in straight sets 6-4, 6-3; but at second singles Gopher Mike Trautner edged Brad Holland 4-6, 6-3, 6-3. Michigan also captured the number three and number six singles with Jud Shaufler and Pete Osler winning, respectively. Minnesota won four and five singles as Tom Nelson posted a 3-6, 6-3, 7-6 win over Ihor Debryn and Greg Wicklund defeated Jack Nienken 6-4, 6-3. In doubles play the netters won two and lost one with all three matches going three sets. At one doubles Marty Horwitch and Etterbeek won a close decision over Brandenburg and Mark Wheaton 6-4, 4-6, 6-2. After dropping the first set 6-1, Ollie Owens and Osler bounced back to win the next two 6-2, 6-3 to trounce the Gopher duo of Whicklund and Grady. Trautner and Nelson beat Shaufler and Holland 6-2, 4-6, 6-4 'at second doubles. "I'm pleased that we won because it was our first Big Ten match, but un- fortunately we didn't play very well," said Eisner. Today at home (1 p.m.) the netters will try to improve their 4-0 season record against Big Ten foe Iowa. ,f .;: ; i j ab r LeFlore cf ........................ 4 0 Mankwski 3b.................... 4 2 Staub dh.......................4 0 JThompson lb................... 4 1 Kemp If ........................ 3 0 Corcoran r...................... 3 0 M ay c...... .................... 4 1 Whitaker 2b..................... 3 1 Trammell ss....................... 3 1 Totals............................. 32 6 1 TORONTO ab r Bosetticb...... ................ 4 0 W oodslIf .......................... 4 0 Howelly3b........................ 4 0 Cartydhs........................ 3 1 Mayberry lb.................... 4 1 Button rf ....................... 4 0 McKay 2b ............,.......... 4 0 Gome ss...................... .3 0 Ashby c ........................... 2 0 Totals.......................... 32 2 Toronto...................... 020 000 Detroit ...........................O1 1300 h 0 2 2 0 2 1 10 rbi 0 3 0 0 1 0 6 h rbi 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 11 0 0 0 5 1 000-2 00X-6 PURDUE PILFERS UNCC COACH .

Michigan was supposed to open its season last Tuesday, but alternate days of rain and muddy conditions put off the opener each day until today. Bowling Green posted a Florida record of 8-5 earlier this spring after tying for fifth place in the Mid-American Conference last year. The Falcon stars include second baseman Chuck Black, who hit .386 last year, and centerfielder Jeff Groth (.349). Michigan will pitch lefties Steve Howe and Craig McGinnis in the 1 p.m. doubleheader. -GARY KICINSKI Softball Michigan's newest varsity sport, women's.softball, takes to the road today to face the likes of Northwestern and Chicago State Universities in an opening day doubleheader in Evanston, Ill. Coach Gloria Soluk is unsure of exactly what to expect from her first year team. Yet they do appear to be evenly matched with Northwestern, another first year squad, who will be sporting an all-freshman lineup. "We do have two pretty fair pitchers," noted Coach Soluk. Getting the starting nods for the Wolverines today will be Teresa Gardoski and Shelley Piilo. -LISA KAPLAN Track Today the highly successful Michigan men's track team heads to the full- sized tracks and sunny blue skies of the outdoor season. The cream of the team will vie for points in the prestigious Texas Relays in Austin while the rest of the squad squares off in the Ohio University Relays in Athens. Competing at Texas are the 400 meter and distance medley relay crews, both featuring world record holder James Grace in the anchor position. ,NCAA runner-up Jim Stokes in the pole vault and 25' long jumper James Henry will round out the Wolverine attack. Weather and injuries permitting, the women's track team will also take to the track this afternoon, against Illinois at Champaign. -CLIFF DOUGLAS score, but he was only .1 out of third place and .25 behind first place. THE NEXT round of action occurred late last night with the optionals, and the top eight in each event will go into tonight's finals. Arizona State is leading the team competition, with a 216.08 total. -DAILY SPORTS Rose(y) future WEST LAFAYETTE-Purdue ended a month-lorng, nationwide search for a new basketball coach yesterday with the announcement that Lee Rose of the University of North Carolina-Charlotte had been hired to change the fortune of the Boilermakers. ROSE SUCCEEDS Fred Schaus, who stepped down from the coaching job last month to become Purdue Athletic Director George King's assistant. Rose's teams compiled a 72-18 won- lost record in his three seasons at UN- CC. Last year he guided his 49ers to the semifinal round of the NCAA tour- nament. THE NEW PURDUE coach said he thinks the Big Ten is "the premier basketball conference in the county.. Being intthe Big Ten is a great oppor- tunity, a tremendous challenge." -AP 'M'ex,'Funseth tied AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP)-Lee Trevino and Rod Funseth, both complaining about aches and pains, shared the half- way lead in a Masters golf tournament that is beginning to resemble the Old Folks invitational. One shot back at 140 are Gene Littler, who had a 68, and Hale Irwin, 68. Defending champion Tom Watson (68) was at 141. First-round leader John Schlee ballooned to a 75, putting him at 143 with four-time Masters runner-up Tom Weiskopf and Jerry Pate, who each shot 71. Jack Nicklaus, a five-time Masters winner, shot a 73 for 145. Second-round co-leader Trevino is prepared if he finishes on top. "If I win it on Sunday," said Trevino, "I'll tell you, I'll get in a condition so that I don't know I've won it until the next Sunday."
