The Michigan Doily-Friday, May 29, 1981-Page 15 MAJOR LEAGUE ROUNDUP Brewers rip Tigers, 7-1 By JON MORELAND Special to the Dally MILWAUKEE - Detroit Tiger pit- cher Dan Petry managed to hold off the Milwaukee Brewer bats for three com- plete innings yesterday afternoon, the best the Tiger staff has done in the last three games. In the long run, however, the Brewer bats were alive and well as they, pounded out a 7-1 victory over the Tigers. The win was the third in a row for the Brewers in the series, after the Tigers. won the first game. PETRY CRUISED through the first three innings with no problems, allowing only a pair of two-out base hits, but he ran into trouble in the four- th. The difficulties started when Brewer first baseman Cecil Cooper worked Petry for a lead-off walk. Back-to-back singles by Ben Oglivig and Ted Sim- mons then loaded the bases with still nobody out. Roy Howell then parked a Petry fastball into the Brewer bullpen for a grand-slam, giving the Brewers a 4-1 lead. Thefour runs turned out to be enough' for Brewer starter Mike Caldwell, who lasted seven-and-two-thirds innings and got the win, raising his record to 5-4. Petry went the distance for the Tigers, and the loss lowered his record to 2-4. 1 THE BREWERS got three more runs for Caldwell in the bottom of the eighth after two were out. The uprising started when Oglivie singled, the first of four consecutive Brewer base hits. Simmons then belted his third base hit of the day, a home-run down the rightfield line, ac- counting for two more Brewer runs. A double by Howell and a base hit by Robin Yount finished the scoring in the ballgame. Although the Tigers threatened in each of the first four innings, they could only come up with a single run in the second. This occurred when Lance Parrish led off the inning by doubling down the leftfield line. After Tom Brookens' sacrifice bunt moved Parrish to third, it appeared as though Caldwell might get out of the inning when he got Champ Summers on a short fly to right. Lynn Jones, however, came up with a two-out, run-scoring single to drive in what turned out to be the only Tiger run of the afternoon. Braves 9, Dodgers 4 ATLANTA (AP)-Veteran right- hander Gaylord Perry moved closer to the magic 300-victory plateau and hit a two-run single in a seven-run uprising that chased rookie sensation Fernando Valenzuela as the Atlanta Braves belted the Los Angeles Dodgers, 9-4, last night. Valenzuela, 8-2, lasted only 3 2-3 in- nings and was charged with seven ear- ned runs, lifting his earned run average from 1.24 to 1.88. It marked the first time that Valenzuela failed to pitch at lease seven innings this season and was his second straight defeat. Pirates 9, Cubs 4 CHICAGO (AP)-Dale Berra's base- clearing double capped a five-run fifth inning yesterday and powered Eddie Solomon and the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 9-4 victory over the Chicago Cubs. THE TRIUMPH was the third straight for the Pirates after dropping the opening game of the series, while the Cubs went down to their 31st loss in 40 decisions. Lee Lacy opened the decisive fifth with one of his three singles, took second on a balk by loser Bill Caudill, 1- 4, and scored on a single by Omar Moreno. Moreno stole second and scored on a single by Bill Madlock. Solomon, 3-3, originally put the Pirates ahead with a run-scoring single in the third after Tony Pena had doubled.
