DETROIT-Tiger starter Dan
Schatzeder only made one mistake last
night, but it cost him the game as the
Tigers bowed to the Boston Red Sox, 3-
1.
After leadoff hitter Rick Burleson
was issued a walk by Schatzeder in the
first inning, Boston centerfielder Fred
Lynn singled, moving Burleson to third.
Then came Schatzeder's mistake.
With Red Sox first baseman Tony Perez
at the plate, the count went to'. 3-2
before Perez put Boston on top with a
blast that just cleared the left field fen-
ce, giving the Red Sox all the runs they
needed.
Boston starter Steve Renko also
made only one mistake, but it wasn't
as costly as Schatzeder's. In the bottom
of the first, Tiger designated hitter
Steve Kemp lined one into the rightfield
seats, recording the Bengals only tally.
From then on. however, the game
turned into a pitchers' duel. In addition
to the home run by Kemp, the greatest
excitement for Tiger fans name in the
ninth inning as Detroit rightfielder Al
Cowens made a perfect throw to nip
Perez at home.
Schatzeder turned in a fine perfor-
mance, but the costly mistake dropped
him to 6-9 for the year. He worked eight
innings before being replaced by Dave
Rozema. Renko picked up the win
working 7% innings for the Bosox.
The loss by the Tigers coupled with
Baltimore's victory over New York put
the Bengals even deeper into third
place. They remain 8% games behind
the pace-setting Yankees, but are in
danger of dropping even lower in the
American League Eastern Division.
Detroit now only has a game advan-
tage over fourth place Milwaukee and a
one game lead over fifth place
Cleveland.
The Tigers open a four-game
weekend series tonight with the Texas
Rangers at Tiger Stadium. Milt Wilcox
is scheduled to get the starting nod
from Sparky Anderson.
Orioles 6, Yankees 1
BALTIMORE (AP)-Steve Stone
hurled a two-hitter and notched his 19th
victory with home run support from
Gary Roenicke, Rich Dauer and Ken
Singleton as the Baltimore Orioles,
defeated the New York Yankees 6-1 last
night.
By winning the opener of the five-
game series, the Orioles moved to
within 2 games of first-place New
York in the American League East.1
Stone, 19-4 after winning for the 17th
time in his last 18 decisions, was
touched for Reggie Jackson's 32nd
homer leading off the second in-
ning-but after that the 33-year-old
righthander allowed only a fifth-inning
single by Bucky Dent and five walks.
Two of the walks camerwith two out in
the third before Stone retired Jackson
on a liner to left-center.
With Baltimore ahead 2-1, Roenicle
cracked his sixth homer following a
single by Benny Ayala in the sixth and
the blow finished loser Tom Under-
wood, 9-9.
Dauer, who keyed a two-run first in-
ning with an RBI double, hit his first
homer of the season off Ron Davis with
one out in the seventh and Singleton hit
the next pitch for his 15th round-tripper.
The crowd of 49,952 was the fifth-
largest regular-season attendance in
Baltimore history.
Brewers 4, Blue Jays 2
MILWAUKEE (AP) - Cecil Cooper
lashed four hits and knocked in two
runs yesterday as Moose Haas and the
Milwaukee Brewers defeated Toronto
4-2 despite two homers by John
Mayberry of the Blue Jays.
The Brewers broke a 1-1 tie with two
third-inning runs off Dave Stieb, 10-9.
Doubles by Paul Molitor and Cooper
scored one run and, after Gorman
Thomas beat out a hit off Stieb's glove,
Ben Oglivie singled to score Cooper.
Milwaukee made it 4-1 in the seventh
when Robin Yount reached on a
fielder's choice, stole second and
scored on Cooper's fourth hit, a bloop
single.
A single by Molitor, a balk, a single
by Cooper and a sacrifice fly by
Thomas gave the Brewers a 1-0 first-in-
ning lead. Haas, 14-9, who scattered
nine hits and struck out five en route to
his fourth successive victory, gave up
Mayberry's 19th homer of the season in
the second inning and his second solo
shot of the game in the ninth.
Giants 5, Braves 1
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Jack
Clark's third-inning grand-slam home
run, the third of his career, led the San
Francisco Giants to their fourth
straight victory, a 5-1 decision yester-
day over the Atlanta Braves.
With one out in the third, Larry Mc-
Williams, 8-9, walked pitcher Al
Hargesheimer and Jim Wohlford, then
Darrell Evans singled to load the bases
before Clark hit a 1-2 pitch over the left
field fence for his 22nd homer of the
season.

MSU will enlarge
Mackey football box
EAST LANSING (UPI)-Michigan State University, already under fire for
renovations at President Cecil Mackey's official residence, will spend up to $17,500
to provide more "milling around" space in his box at Spartan Stadium.
"Why don't they go down to look at the University of Michigan," lamented an
exasperated MSU spokesman Ed Zabrusky, who said complaints about the box
remodeling came from the same Mackey foes who made an issue of the residence
work.
"IT'S PEANUTS HERE compared with other places," Zabrusky said.
Both projects come at a time when MSU is raising tuition, citing a budget
crunch.
The recently re-carpeted box, located at midfield on the second floor of the
stadium press box, seats 50 to 75 persons and is used by Mackey to entertain guests
of the university. The VIPs are treated to an unobstructed view, lunch and
beverages while watching the games.
REMODELING WORK under way includes tearing down some walls,
eliminating a closet and replacing a ceiling.
"For some reason it wasn't designed well," said Assistant Athletic Director
William Beardsley.
He said the changes will give guests "more milling around area."
ROGER WILKINSON, associate MSU vice president for business and finance,
said the project had been in the works for some time and Mackey himself had no
direct involvement in the decision to go ahead. The actual request for the work was
issued June 26.
Beardsley said the decision was made by "the athletic department in concert
with the president's office." Funding will come from the athletic budget.
THE $17,500 PRICE tag is described as a maximum figure, and officials say
the project may well come in under budget. The box is expected to be finished in
time for the firstfMSU home game Sept. 27.
