Homers push Philly
oast Baltimore. 2-1
BALTIMORE (AP) — Garry
Maddox and Joe Morgan, a pair
of veterans who have weathered
recent hard times, gave the
Philadelphia Phillies victory in a
home-run derby in Game One of
the World Series Tuesday night.
Morgan, at 40 a charter
member of the Phillies’ Wheeze
Kid^ club, homered to right field
off Baltimore’s Scott McGregor
to tie the game at 1-1 in the sixth
inning. And Maddox,
Philadelphia’s 34-year-old center
fielder, clubbed McGregor’s first
pitch in the eighth inning for a
2-1 triumph.
Pres. Ronald Reagan and
52,204 others watched in a
steady drizzle as the Phillies ig
nored Baltimore’s home-field
advantage.
“First, I was too short to play
this game,” the 5-foot-7 Morgan
said, "then too old, so I really
don’t worry about it any more.”
That attitude prevailed, even
though the former member of
Cincinnati’s Big Red Machine of
the 1970s went through the Na
tional League Championship
Series with just one hit in 15 at
bats.
Maddox's name often is men
tioned when the game’s finest
defensive center-fielders are
discussed, but in the champion
ship series against Los Angeles
he fell and dropped a fly ball,
setting up the Dodgers’ lone
playoff victory. So, Tuesday
night’s game-winner was doubly
sweet.
“I really have to thank God
that I have the opportunity to be
in a World Series,” Maddox said,
“and to be able to hit a home run
and win a ballgame is realiy a
blessing.”
The Orioles, like the Phillies,
had won the pennant with a 3-1
playoff edge and outscored their
American League championship
series foe Chicago 19-3, but
were limited to five hits by
Philadelphia starter John Denny
and relief ace Al Holland.
Baltimore’s lone run came on a
first-inning homer by Jim Dwyer.
"Some good pitching was
thrown at us tonight," Orioles
Manager Joe Altobelli
said.“Denny only made one
mistake. But our guy, Scotty,
made two."
Denny worked 7 2-3 innings
and gave up five hits.
Denny was 6-11 when he came
to Philadelphia from Cleveland
*
in September 1982. He finished
up with two losses at
Philadelphia, but this season he
became the winningest pitcher
in the National League with a
19-6 record.
“I don’t know if I can answer
that question,” Denny said when
asked to explain his turnaround.
“I’ve grown since then, I guess.
The thing I accomplished this
year that I wasn’t able to to in
the past, was consistency.”
The victory put the Phillies
one game ahead in the best-of
seven Series, with rookie right
hander Charles Hudson pitching
Wednesday night in Game 2
against another rookie right
hander, Mike Boddicker of
Baltimore.
Denny and McGregor, both of
whom failed to go the distance,
matched three-hitters thfbugh
the first six innings. In the
eighth, Maddox came to bat
against McGregor with the score
tied 1-1. During the season he
had shared center field with
Greg Gross, Von Hayes and Bob
Dernier and had hit only four
home runs. He was one of those
unhappy Phillie role players.
But all that unhappiness was
set aside Tuesday night.
Maddox drilled the first pitch
in the eighth over the left-field
fence, arming Denny with the
lead for the first time. The
Phillies nearly had successive
homers when Bo Diaz, the next
batter, hit a 1-0 pitch that seem
ed destined to sail over the
fence in left field, but John
Lowenstein timed his leap
perfectly and snared the ball
above and beyond the fence.
Right-hander Denny, a
19-game winner during the
regular season, retired the first
two batters in the eighth but,
when Al Bumbry doubled, the
Phillies went to their bullpen, br
inging on relief ace Holland.
Denny had given up five hits,
but held one of baseball’s most
explosive lineups to a single run.
He had retired 10 in a row at one
point.
The Phillies had the luxury of
Holland in the bullpen. He had a
club-record 25 saves and an
earned run average of 2.26 dur
ing the regular season. He
retired pinch-hitter Dan Ford on
a fly to left on the first pitch, en
ding the Baltimore threat.
