World Series has new face
ST. LOUIS (AP) - Ted Sim
mons, the Milwaukee Brewers
catcher, was philosophical He
talked about big guys and little
guys, about struggles for sur
vival and why they are won and
lost.
That was several days ago,

gling to stay alive in the Amer
ican League playoffs Not only
did they survive, they accom
plished the greatest turnaround

straight games after losing the

Louis with Game Two Follow
ing a travel day, the Series re
sumes with three games, if all
are needed, in Miliwaukee on
Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
The final two games of the Se
ries would be played in St Louis
on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Simmons’ locker room
soliloquy, although he did not
know it at the time, may have
been prophetic. It seemed to
sum up the way this World Se
ries would take shape
"If you have 10 big guys and
10 little guys,” he said, "the 10
big guys usually win But that’s
not always the way it works out
in baseball The nature of the
game is such that you never
know what will happen."
Baseball’s 1982 version of Big
vs. Small was personified in this
World Series
On the one hand, there were
the Brewers — baseball’s home
run kings with 216 during the
regular season, brute force with
a capital "B." On the other
hand, there were the Cardinals
— with the fewest home runs in
the major leagues this year, 66,
yet with a team batting average
of .264, second highest in the
National League.
The Cardinals won the NL
East with pitching, defense and
speed, although the natural
grass of Milwaukee County
Stadium probably would negate
some of that The Brewers,
meanwhile, conquered the AL
East with power, a solid
defense, more power, some
decent pitching, and still more
power.

‘ The Brewers are an excel
lent hitting team," St. Louis
Manager Whitey Herzog said,
"just like the Braves But if our
pitchers do the same consistent
job they've done the last three
games, we ll do OK."
During the NL series, St.
Louis’ pitching held the Braves,
who led the National League
with 144 regular-season
homers, to just one extra-base
hit, a double by Dale Murphy.
Herzog said right-hander Bob
Forsch, who pitched a three-hit
shutout in the second game of
the NL playoffs, would start
Game One of the Series for the
Cards Milwaukee Manager
Harvey Kuenn said he probably
would counter with left-hander
Mike Caldwell, the opening
game loser in the AL series
Forsch was 15-9 with a 3.48
ERA during the season, while
Caldwell was 17-13 with a 3.91
ERA
The big question for Milwau
kee was bullpen ace Rollie
Fingers, who has not pitched
since Sept 2 when he sustained
a torn muscle in his right for
earm.
Kuenn said Fingers could
have pitched to one or two bat
ters in the playoffs, but there still
was some pain in the pitcher's
arm. In his place, Kuenn used
rookie right-hander Pete Ladd,
who faced 10 batters in three
playoff appearances, retiring all
10
"Why should Harvey use me,
at 75 percent, when he’s got
Pete Ladd pitching.so well?"
Fingers asked
