SPORTS The Michigan Daily Friday, May 27, 1988 Page 11 ROBIN LOZNAK/Daily Michigan State third baseman Jeff Bonchek successfully steals second base as Wolverine Matt Morse takes the high throw. The Spartan team was also successful as it beat the Wolverines, 4-2, in last weekend's Big Ten tournament. Playoffs- Continued from Page 1 walking only four. Michigan batters were angered by the home plate umpires calls throughout the contest, but their opponents thought differently. "I figure it was going both ways. They got me on a close call," said Michigan State catcher Scott Makarewicz. "We were starting most hitters with the curve. When the umpire knows what's' coming, it makes it easier for him to call strikes." Michigan's Mike Grimes also seemed to benefit from close calls, striking out 11 over eight innings. "Grimes pitched well enough to win," said Middaugh. In the third inning Michigan State scored three times, collecting four of its seven hits. Three of those hits could have been outs. After a hit batter and a sacrifice bunt, Steve Preston and Kevin Dalson hit dif- ficult grounders to short and second respectively that resulted in another run scoring with no further outs recorded. Big Ten batting champion Mike Davidson followed with a sinking drive that went off leftfielder Greg McMurtry's glove for a single. Dan Masteller drove in the Spartan's third run with the only clean hit of the inning. Michigan got single runs in the first and third on RBIs by Phil Price, just back from a hand injury, and Haeger. But Krumm got stronger and stronger, striking out seven over the last ftre innings. "He's got those Superman quali- ties," said Spartan head coach Tom Smith. "He smelled the barn." The next day brought a different team and pitchers, but the same re- sults. Minnesota's Darren Knight and Dennis Neagle combined to hold Michigan to one run on three hits. Mike Ignasiak kept Michigan in the game, yielding just one run in the first seven innings, allowing the Wolverines to tie the game at one in the seventh when Darrin Campbell singled in Jim Durham from third. In the top of the eighth Michigan squandered a chance to go ahead. Tom Brock led off with a walk but was caught stealing when Chris Ga- gin didn't go after a pitch way out- side on a hit and run. In the bottom of the inning, the Gophers capitalized on their chances. Tournament Most Valuable Player Vince Palyan singled with one out and Jay Kvasnicka followed with another single.

Weinberg scored on a single by Brian Raabe off Gagin's glove at second. Neagle retired Michigan in order in the ninth to earn the win. The six-foot four Neagle also gained the victory in the champi- onship game against Michigan State, which needed only to win one game out of two to win their first title in nearly ten years. They didn't. Right after their close win over Michigan, Minnesota swamped the Spartans, 17-4, behind 14 runs in the last three frames. In the champi- onship game on Sunday, Minnesota again used the big inning - this time a four-run fourth, to win its third title in eight years. Michigan has won it the other five times.
