Bevacqua lifts San Diego
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Kurt
Bevacqua atoned for a rally
killing blunder in Game One
with a three-run homer,
vaulting San Diego to a 5-3 vic
tory over the Detroit Tigers
Wednesday night and a split of
the first two games of the 1984.
World Series.
The American League cham
pion Tigers scored three runs in
the first inning off Ed Whitson,
but this time, Padres’ Manager
Dick Williams made his move
before it was too late. Williams
removed Whitson with one out
left in the inning, and relief pit
cher Andy Hawkins turned
giant-killer.
Hawkins, a part-time starter
who had two complete games
during the season, pitched 5 1-3
innings, gave up just one hit
before he gave way to left
hander Craig Lefferts, who
started the seventh.
The Padres scratched back
with a run in the first on Graig
Nettles’ sacrifice fly and
another in the fourth on a
fielder’s choice grounder by
Bobby Brown that scored Bevac
qua to make it 3-2.
In the fifth, the Padres finally
chased Tigers’ starter Dan
Petry, 18-8 during the season,
with Bevacqua’s three-run
homer. In San Diego’s 3-2 loss
in Game One, Bevacqua had
knocked the Padres out of a
potential rally by stumbling
while trying to stretch a leadoff
double in the seventh inning in
to a triple. But Williams kept
his faith in the 37-year-old
designated hitter and moved
him up three notches to sixth in
the batting order.
His home run came after a
walk to Nettles and a bad hop
single by Terry Kennedy on a
shot that bounced off second
baseman Lou Whitaker’s chest.
As he watched the ball sail in
to the left field seats, Bevacqua
jumped in the air and spun
around at first base. He pumped
the No. 1 sign with a finger as
he rounded second, and as he
trotted around third, Bevacqua
pressed both hands against his
lips and blew a kiss to the
crowd of 57,911 at Jack Murphy
Stadium. Even in his moment of
infamy on Tuesday night, they
had not booed him. Now, they
cheered him.
He wound up with three hits
in the game, as did teammates
Alan Wiggins and Garry
Templeton.
The victory kept the Padres
alive as the Series moves to
Detroit for games No. 3, 4 and 5
on Friday night, Saturday and
Sunday. No team had ever lost
the first two games at home and
come back to win a best-of-7
Series.
Hawkins also pitched two
scoreless innings in Game One,
giving up one hit in relief of
starter Mark Thurmond, who
had struggled all evening before
leaving with the Padres behind
3-2. Hawkins was nearly
flawless again Wednesday
night. He got the last out in the
first and retired 13 in a row
before Kirk Gibson led off the
sixth with a bloop single to left.
Blazers play
at Mac Court
After a two-year hiatus, the
Portland Trail Blazers will be
visiting Eugene for a National
Basketball Association pre
season game with the Los
Angeles Clippers this Monday,
Oct. 15, at 7:30 p.m. in McAr

Portland has a new look this
season under the tutelage of
coach Jack Ramsay who took the
Trail Blazers to a second place
finish in the Pacific Divsion last
year. The Blazers will showcase
forward Kiki Vandeweghe who
came to Portland in a trade from
Denver.
Los Angeles is led by former
Blazer Bill Walton.
The Clippers received Mar

make the playoffs. Johnson is
considered one of the premiere
forwards in the game.

game. Bowie injured his ribs in
a Blazer practice.
