The Michigan boily-Thursday, October 6, 1977-Pag'9- DODGERS SLAM PHILLIES, 7-1 KC serves Yankees By The Associated Press NEW YORK - Hal McRae, John Mayberry and Al Cowens slugged home runs yesterday, powering the Kansas City Royals to a 7-2 victory over the New York Yankees in the opening game of the American League playoff series. Little Freddie Patek doubled home two other Kansas City runs as the Royals made quick work of Yankees'' ace Don Gullett, knocking him out in just two innings. Paul Splittorff rode the heavy support to an easy victory that gave the Royals a vital jump in the best-of-five championship play- off. 'he home runs by McRae and Mayberry were two-run shots, while Cowens tagged a solo homer. Thur- man Munson accounted for the Yankees scoring with a third-inning homer. The Royals wasted no time against Gullett, whose 14-4 record during the regular season gave him the best winning percentage in the American League. Patek, leading off the game, walked on four pitches, and when Gullett's first pitch to McRae also was a ball, Manager Billy Martin paid a hasty, visit to the pitcher. Gullett got strikes on his next two pitches, but then McRae got all of the next one, sending it over the 387-foot sign in left field for a quick 2-0 lead. Gullett retired the first two batters in the second inning, but then walked Darrel Porter and the Royals' catch- er slid safely into second when Frank White's infield single backed up Graig Nettles and the Yankee third baseman's throw to second was a bit late. oaRo y That brought up Patek, the major league's smallest player at 5-foot-4. He ripped a shot inside the third base line and Porter scored easily. New York left fielder Lou Piniella, thinking the ball was a ground rule double, eased up on it, and when third base coach Chuck Hiller noticed that, he frantically waved White home. The Yankees argued briefly over the call by third base umpire Nick Bremigan, but,alike everything else on the sun-splashed day, it went against New York. At the start of the third inning, Dick Tidrow was' on the mound for the Yankees with Gullett finished after four runs, four hits and two walks in just two innings. With one out in the third, Cowens, who finished with three hits, beat out a single up the middle. Tidrow got Amos Otis on a fly ball, but the muscular Mayberry powered the next pitch well beyond the 353- foot sign in right field and the Royals' lead was 6-0. The Yankees scored in the bottom of the third when Mickey Rivers, who had three of the eight hits allowed by Splittorff opened with a single and Munson drove the next pitch into the lower seats in left field. One out later, Piniella backed Cowens to the right field wall for his long drive that had the crowd of 54,930 on its feet. New York wasted Willie Ran- dolph's two-out double in the fourth and Cowens made a leaping catch of Rivers' home run bid in the fifth. Meanwhile, Tidrow silenced the Royals through the middle four innings, holding them hitless over that stretch. But the Yankees were unable to solve Splittorff. It stayed 6-2 until the eighth. Then Cowens, leading off, lofted Kansas City's third home run of the game into the lower stands in left field. The Yankees' best chance at Splittorff turned out to be an early one. With New York trailing 4-0 in the second inning, Piniella, leading off, singled to left, just over the leap of Patek, probably the only shortstop in baseball not tall enough to snare the line drive.

The Royals barely missed ending the game with a triple play. Johnson singled, giving New York runners at first and second against Bird. Ran- dolph then hit a smash to third baseman George Brett, who stepped on the bag and relayed to White at second for the double play. Randolph barely beat the relay to first, preventing the triple play. Splittorff was 2-0 against the Yankees during the regular season and 11-3 lifetime against New York before the game. He also was the Royals' winning pitcher against the Yankees in the second game of last year's playoffs. Phillies-p hall LOS ANGELES - Dusty Baker's grand slam homer powered the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 7-1 victory over Even up But Baker, who in the final garde^,of the regular season became the fourth Dodgers player to hit 30 home runs this year, blasted a 1-2 breaking ball oves the fence near the 370-foot sign. It4 s the second grand slammer for the Dodgers in the first two games of(41te best-of-five series. Ron Cey had hit the first grand slam in the nine-year history of the National League championship series Tuesday night, but his blast couldn't prevent the Phillies from winning 7-5. Baker's homer broke a 1-1 tie and paved the way for right-hander Doi Sutton to coast to the victory.

BB 1 1 0 0 SO 1 2 2 4: L- For Used, Rare, and Out-of Print Books By BILLY NEFF and ERIC OLSEN Special to The Dally PONTIAC-The New York Cosmos and the Santos soc- cer club of Brazil proved last night that the Detroit Lions do not have exclusive rights to kicking the ball around on the artificial turf at the Silverdome. Pele's latest team, the Cosmos, champions of the North American Soccer League, and his original team with which he won three World Cups (1958, 62, 70), Santos, played to a 1-1 tie in their own brand of "futbol." The game was played before 24,689 partisan Cosmos fans, the largest crowd ever to see a soccer match in Michigan. UNFORTUNATELY, the Silverdome fans did not have the treat of seeing the dazzling Pele, who played his final game last Saturday, against the same Santos con- tingent. Steve Hunt, the Cosmos playmaker and most valuable player in their championship game against Seattle, did not make the trip either. Santos controlled action throughout the entire first half, but came away on the short end of a 1-0 score. The Brazilians tested Erol Yasin, New York's substitute goalie, continuously but they could not hit their mark. TWICE IN THE second half, Santos right winger Nilton rattled shots off the Cosmos goalpost. With 26 minutes elapsed in the initial half, the New Yorkers gained the momentum and the lead when their scoring star Giorgio Chinaglia converted a -pinpoint pass from Jadranko Topic. The second half was no different from the first, as San- tos dominated from the outset. This time their perser- verence paid off when Reynaldo blasted a booming drive past the startled Cosmos goalie, "Mr. Skol Tobacco" Shep Messing. At the finish of the contest, an overtime should have been played, but due to the players weariness, they can- celled the extra session and the game's trophy was awarded charitably by the Santos club to the Cosmos. COSMOS STAR Franz Beckenbauer, recognized as the premier player in the world, believes American soccer to be "much more difficult due to both the different styles and different nationalities playing on an astroturf field." Beckenbauer looks enthusiastically to next season but also looks back pleasureably on this campaign playing with Pele: "He is a great player and a great person. It was a good time that I'll never forget." Neither will we, Franz. Cosmos goalie Messing, former Harvard goalkeeper. sees Detroit as possibly having a professional soccer team. "They have a beautiful stadium, and I was impressed with the makeupof the crowd-kids, families."
