Page 12-Wednesday, Auqust 6, 1980-The Michigan Daily Sp~rtt Tigers lose to K ., 6-3 BY ALAN FANGER Special to The Daily DETROIT - Only Milt Wilcox, the forlorn victim, will know whether it was the Kansas City bats or George Brett's fists which pounded him harder last night. The Royal bats were hot enough, pounding the Tiger starter for six runs and six hits, as the Western Division leaders cruised to a 6-3 victory. These days, that cannot be considered a surprise. What may have come as a genuine shock to the Tiger righthander was the at- tack mounted against him by Brett, who jumped Wilcox in the sixth inning after he had been brushed back by a Wilcox pitch. The entire evening turned out to be sour grapes for Wilcox, whose record drop- ped to 12-10. After pitching the first three innings without yielding a hit, despite a 24-minute rain delay, Wilcox was banged up by the potent Royal attack in both the fourth and eighth frames. Ironically enough, it was Brett who spelled first doom for Wilcox, in the non- physical sense. After Willie Wilson had led off the fourth with a walk, and designated hitter Hal McRae had singled him to second, Brett stroked his 13th homer of the year into the upper deck in right field. That pulled Kansas City into a 3-0 lead and sent them on their way to an easy, if blood-stained win. ,Brett's temper was stirred by a Wilcox pitch that grazed the top of his helmet. Claiming the Tiger hurler attempted a deliberate brushback, he vented his anger at the home plate umpire, Rich Garcia. He was quickly supported by manager Jim Frey. Brett's rage subsided briefly, but the Royal third baseman jumped back on the warpath after he lofted a fly ball to center field. Rick Peters made the easy catch, and as Brett had rounded first and was nearly halfway to second, he suddenly dar- ted to his left and headed straight for Wilcox, who was standing behind the mound with his face to the runner. What followed was a maze of confusion, a brawl that was quickly subdued as players from both dugouts hurriedly spilled onto the field in disbelief at Brett's ac- tions. Brett was immediately ejected from the game, and Wilcox appeared un- shaken, as he put out Darrell Porter on a soft grounder to end the inning. But Wilcox could not survive.another Royal assault, be it only off the timber. Wilson ignited yet another rally when he tripled home second baseman Frank White, who had singled to make it 4-0. McRae then singled Wilson home and Dave Chalk (who was inserted to replace Brett) doubled in McRae to complete the scoring. Champ Summers slammed a two-run homer in the eighth to cut the deficit to 6- 2 and they pushed across another run in the ninth. But then it was evident that they had clearly lost the war. Combined with a New York loss, the defeat leaves the Tigers still 8% games behind the front-running Yankees. They continue the series with the third game tonight at Tiger Stadium. The attendance was 27,469. n .. .. .. .. :. .. .. .. . Garner gunned down Chicago shortstop Steve Macko gloves the throw just in time to foil Pirate Phil Garner's steal attempt yesterday.
