Sports i Page 16 Saturday; May 8, 1982 The Michigan Doily Chisox beat Tigers, 8-5 Herndon, Whitaker strand three in ninth .4 By BUDDY MOOREHOUSE Specialto the Daily DETROIT- The huge crowd that showed up at Tiger Stadium last night was expecting to see Round Two of the beanball war which started last week between the Detroit Tigers and the Chicago White Sox. What they saw instead was an ex- citing come-from-behind rally by the Tigers which fell short at the end, as the White Sox held off Detroit, 8-5. AS 38,006 vociferous fans looked on, the Tigers rallied from a 5-0 deficit to score four runs in the eighth.inning. But three Chicago runs in the ninth proved to be too much for Detroit to overcome as the Tigers could only pick up one run in the bottom of the last inning. As for the much-ballyhooed beanball confrontation the fans were expecting, only one batter was hit by a pitch. Detroit's Chet Lemon caught a ball on his leg in the ninth as the crowd heartily booed Chicago pitcher Salome Barojas. White Sox starter Lamarr Hoyt, who admitted he purposely threw at Tiger shortstop Alan Trammell last Sunday, let his fastball do the talking last night. Hoyt held the Tigers scoreless until he was relieved by Kevin Hickey in the seventh inning. Hoyt picked up the win to up his season mark to 6-0. Detroit starter Jack Morris was hit hard by the White Sox, giving up four runs until Dave Rozema took over in the fifth. Morris suffered'the loss and saw his record drop to 4-3. CHICAGO CHIPPED away at the Tigers through the first six innings, picking up three runs on solo home runs. Greg Luzinski knocked one out of the park in the fourth, and third baseman Jim Morrison, sporting a .180 batting average entering the game, ac- counted for two solo round-trippers in the fifth and sixth innings. Chicago ad- ded another run in the fifth and one in the second to take a 5-0 lead into the eighth inning. The eighth inning started off innocen- tly enough for the Tigers with a Lemon single followed by an Enos Cabell strikeout and a line drive by Kirk Gib- son which was speared by White Sox shortstop Bill Almon. that's when the fireworks began for Detroit. Designated hitter Mike Ivie, playing in his first game as a Tiger, drew a walk and singles by Richie Hebner and Larry Herndon drove in two runs. After Lou Whitaker walked to load the bases, John Wockenfuss lined a single up the middle to drive in two runs. But pinch hitter Ed Miller struck out to end the. Tiger threat. The White Sox picked up three runs in the ninth inning, thanks primarily to a triple by Harold Baines. In the bottom of the last inning, Ivie singled in Cabell for the Tigers' final run. Then with the bases loaded and one out, Herndon struck out and Whitaker popped a foul ball to ex-Tiger Aurelio Rodriguez to end the game. The game also marked the return to Detroit in a White Sox uniform of Steve Kemp, who was met by a mixed chorus of boos and cheers. a I I AP Photo PHIL GARNER OF the Houston Astros successfully breaks up the double play by holding his hands in the way of Chicago Cub second baseman Junior Kennedy's throw to first.
