Cards: world champions
St. Louis (AP) — The St Louis
Cardinals, molded by
Manager Whitey Herzog in his
own feisty image and driven by
the persistent bats of Keith Her
nandez and George Hendrick,
ended 15 years of frustration
Wednesday night by beating the
Milwaukee Brewers 6-3 to win
baseball’s 79th World Series.
The Cardinals won their ninth
Series and the fourth straight by
a National League team with
three runs in the sixth inning of
the decisive seventh game, on
RBI hits by Hernandez and
Hendrick and the seven-hit
pitching of Joaquin Andujar and
Bruce Sutter The Cards
pounded 15 hits.
They were the speed-oriented
Cardinals — a replica of Her
zog's three American League
West Division champions in
Kansas City, with perhaps a little
less power.
They were the Mississippi
riverboat gamblers, unafraid to
risk the present for the future
either in the front office or on
the field Eight of the 25 players
on the World Series roster were
not on the team when Herzog
became manager before the
1981 season, including Andujar
and catcher Darrell Porter, vot
ed the Series’ Most Valuable
Player after going 8-for-28 with
one home run, two doubles and
five RBI
Perhaps the most daring of
them all was Andujar, who came
back from a painful leg injury to
pitch seven innings for his
second victory of the Series
He was not perfect, but he
had help, and he made the big
pitches when it was necessary
Sutter pitched the last two in
nings for his second save
Sutter retired Gorman
Thomas for the last out on a
strikeout with the crowd
shouting "Bruce, Bruce "
When the lights were turned
on at Busch Stadium Wednes
day night, they shone on a new
era of baseball in St Louis,
which had been in 12 previous
World Series
And the lights shone brightly
on Hernandez, whose sleeping
bat awoke in Game 5 after going
0-for-16, and who finished with
a Series-high eight RBI
The lights also shone on
Hendrick, who had nine hits in
the Series and drove in the win
ning run Wednesday night,
capping the Cardinals' rally in
the sixth
They shone brightly on Dane
lorg, whose nine hits as a de
signated hitter tied two other
players for the World Series
record And they shone brightly
on Herzog
These Cardinals inevitably
will be compared with Gas
House Gang, St. Louis' 1934
World Series champions
featuring Dizzy Dean, Ducky
Medwick and Pepper Martin
This was not a mean, spikes
high team like that outfit of 38
years ago — Herzog had called
this a "lady's game" with no
brushbacks and no beanballs —
but the Cardinals nevertheless
were world champions for the
first time since 1967, when they
beat the Boston Red Sox in
seven games
The Brewers trailed 1-0 as St
Louis clawed for a run in the
fourth inning but caught up on
Andujar's first pitch in the fifth
Oglivie hit a drive into the
lower deck in right field, and
there were murmurs of doubt
among the vocal crowd of
53,723
Was Andujar really fit to
pitch? With one out in the
seventh inning of Game 3, Mil
waukee's Ted Simmons hit a
one-hopper oft Andujar's right
shin, forcing the pitcher out of
the game after giving up only
three hits
Before Wednesday night’s
game, Andujar, a tough Domin
ican, had said: No big deal, I no
get killed ”
He was, indeed, very much
alive.
In the sixth inning, the
Brewers took a 3-1 lead, scoring
one run on a throwing error on
Andujar and another on a
sacrifice fly by Cecil Cooper
But the Cardinals came roaring
back in the bottom of the inning
to retake the lead and chase
Milwaukee starter Pete Vuck
ovich
With one out, Ozzie Smith
singled and Lonnie Smith fol
lowed with a double, bringing in
left-hander Bob McClure, who
had saved Games 4 and 5
Gene Tenace pinch-hit for
Ken Oberkfell and walked,
loading the bases Mike Ramsey
ran for Tenace, a star of Oak
land's championship teams in
the early 1970s, then Hernandez
singled in both Smiths to tie the
score as the crowd — many in
Cardinal red and white — rose to
its feet Hendrick then singled in
Ramsey for the go-ahead run
Then they turned things over
to Sutter, who had two saves
and a victory in the Series, and
the Cardinals added two
insurance runs in the eighth on
RBI singles by Darrell Porter
and Steve Braun
The crowd was on its feet as
Sutter worked to Gorman
Thomas with two outs in the
ninth and the bases empty. The
count went to 3-2, and Thomas
— who tied for the major-league
lead with 39 home runs this
season — fouled off three
pitches before striking out
