V GARVEY, WHO had provided the Dodgers with their only run of the first two playoff games with a homer off Nolan Ryan last Tuesday, connected on a 3-1 pitch off loser Bob Knepper to give the Dodgers a 3-0 lead. Davey Lopes opened the first inning by walking on four pitches. He was, sacrificed to second by Ken Landreaux and scored as Dusty Baker slapped Knepper's first pitch for a double to left-center. Garvey followed with his homer. Hooton, who was originally scheduled to start the fourth game of the series but was switched to the third game af- ter the Astros opened with 3-1 and 1-0 wins in Houston, was seldom in trouble before being lifted for Steve Howe after* he walked Art Howe to open the eighth. Art Howe's homer leading off the third inning(produced the only Houston run. Hooton, who walked three and struck out two didn't face more than four batters in any inning. The Dodgers, helped him by turning double plays in each of the first two innings. The only other Houston hits off the veteran right-hander were a single by Jose Cruz in the second inning and a double by Cruz in the seventh. Phillies 6, Expos 2 PHILADELPHIA-(AP)-Right-hander Larry Christenson, in his first start sin- ce August 24, allowed four hits in six in- ning and the Philadelphia Phillies'bats came alive yesterday to beat the Mon- treal Expos 6-2 and avoid elimination in the best-of-five National League East Division playoff series. The Expos who won the first two games of the divisional playoffs in Mon- treal, took a 1-0 lead in the second in- ning. GARY CARTER, whose two-run homer won Game Two at Montreal Thursday night, opened the second with a double to left. Chris Speier knocked in his third run of the series with a two-out single. The Phillies,however, went ahead for the first time in the series in their half of the second. Gary Matthews and Keith Moreland signled and, one out later, Manny Trillo singled through the middle off Expos starter and loser Ray Burris, scoring Matthews. Center Fielder Andre Dawson's throw to third wound up in the Montreal dugout, allowing Moreland to score to make it 2-1. In the sixth, the Phillies scored twice to boost their lead to 4-1. The Phillies are attempting to become the first team since the five- game playoff series were initiated in 1969 to come back from a 2-0 deficit to win. In 1972, the Detroit Tigers fell behind Oakland 2-0, won the next two games, but lost to the A's in the fifth game. Brewers hang tough, outpower Yanks, 5-3 NEW YORK (AP)-Paul Molitor socked a tie-breaking leadoff homer in the eighth inning and Ted Simmons drove in three runs with a homer a double as the slumbering Milwaukee Brewers erupted for a 5-3 victory over the New York Yankees last night, staying alive in the American League East division playoffs. Simmons' two-run homer in the seventh snapped a 19-inning scoring drought by the normally hard-hitting Brewers, and they went on to narrow the Yankees' lead in the best-of-five series to 2 games to 1. THE FOURTH GAME is scheduled for Yankee Stadium for 4:10 p.m. EDT. today. Rick Reuschel will pitch for New York, probably against Milwaukee's Pete Vuckovich, who has been held out of the last two ?games due to a high fever. The Brewers' decisive two-run eighth inning came after the Yankees had jumped on Milwaukee reliever Rollie Fingers, who led the majors with 28 saves, for a pair of runs in the bottom of the seventh that knotted the score 3-3. Molitor's home run just cleared a desperate leap by Dave Winfield, New York's 6 foot 6 left fielder, who jack- knifed over the 8-foot-high wall. It was the third hit of the game for Molitor, whose leadoff singles in the first and fourth were Milwaukee's only hits off Tommy John until the Brewers' three- run seventh. Robin Yount followed with a single off the glove of third baseman Graig Net- tles that KO'd John and brought on Rudy May. Yount advanced to second after May caught Cecil Cooper's line drive bunt in the air but threw wildly past first trying to double Yount. A wild pitch moved Yount to third and he scored when Simmons laced a double up the alley in left center. A's 4, Royals 1 OAKLAND (AP)- Rickey Hender- son broke out of a slump by reaching base four times and scoring three Oakland runs, leading the A's to a 4-1 victory last night and a three-game sweep of the Kansas City Royals in the American League West playoffs. Manager Billy Martin's team became the first division champion of the strike- disrupted major league baseball season. THE A'S, WHO won the division for the first time since Q1975, will play the AL East winner, the New York Yankees or Milwaukee Brewers, in the cham- pionship series opening next Tuesday night.

Only 351Wolverine loyals showed up at Yost Arena, but the players showed all the enthusiasm of a regular-season contest. The first period started slowly with few shots taken against either goal. The Blue squad carried the attack early in the period, with several good scoring opportunities against White team freshman goalie Jon Elliott, but the Spencerville, Ontario native deflected all eight shots against him. BLUE GOALIE Peter Mason, however, was not as impressive. The White's offense was dormant until 14:05 of the first period when freshman left winger James Huber tipped in a slap- shot from the point by Brian Lundberg. Fifty second later, Jeff Tessier made it 2-0 on a slapshot from just above the circle. The pace quickened in the second period, as the White team left winger Paul Brandrup was put in the penalty box for hooking and the Blue squad's Brad Tippett scored against replacement goalie Mark Chiamp to cut the lead to 2-1. Tippett scored again with 49 second left in the period on a quick wrist shot to even the score at 2-2. But' the White squad scored the deciding goals in the final period. White captain Steve Richmond netted the go-ahead score at 10:58 on a back- hand shot from just outside the crease.. Then, as the White defense toughened on the Blue, Joe Milburn scored the final goal of the night into an empty Blue net at 19:31. COACH JOHN Giordano was im- pressed with some aspects of the game. "I think they're playing good defen- sively for this point of the season, "said the second-year coach. "Overall it wasn't bad. Offensively there really wasn't much there." Giordano singled out two freshman for fine performances. "I liked the way. y,_ J defenseman Mike Neff played, " he said. "I also liked the way Jon Elliott played." The Wolverines open their season Oc- tober 23 when they travel to Houghton to face off against . Michigan Tech. Their first home series will be against Toronto on October 30 and 31. 2220 S.

Special to the Daily LAFAYETTE, La.- The results for the Michigan tennis team, which was represented by four players at the Miller High Life Tennis Classic, were mixed on Thursday. When the first round ended for the four Wolverine participants, two had been defeated. Playing at the tournament, hosted by Southwestern Louisiana, were the Wolverines' top four players. MIKE LEACH, the _tournament's top seed, handily defeated Alabama's Denys Maasdorp in straight sets, 6-2, 6- 4. Last year, Leach was the Big Ten runnerup in first singles.
