Ih r llrppner Gazette-1imrs, Heppner. Oregon Wednesday, Juls 23. 1980 - ELEVEN Sports Opinion The Sixth Man ________________ By Ashlay Conklin Here we go again the great American pastime. baseball Just a few notes on last Tuesday 's major league all star game Most Valuable Player Roger Clemens oi the Boston Red Sox \»as nothing short of awesome on the mound for the s ictonous Anarman league squad Clemens pitched three perfecl innings to start the contest and threw ¿5 pit ches, 21 of them strikes Granted, there were sesen other great pitchers on the Al staff that esen ing. but it would hase been nice to see what Clemens could have done oser nine innings Sure, the Boxox wouldn't have liked him overworked, and the other pitchers deserved a fair share of the mound work, but could you imagine a nine inning perfecl game in all star competition’ Wow Many people are criticizing the New York Mets' Dwight Gooden this year, the National league's starting pitcher (ioodrn. who won the NL Cy Young award last season, came into the all star game with a 104 record and ■ I 7’ ERA The Al. won the game ' 2 on home runs by second basemen Dm Whitaker (of Detroit) and Frank White (of Kansas (Try) (iooden gave up Whitaker's smash and was said to hase struggled throughout his three innings Maybe Gooden has thrown his arm out at only 21. but in a game of all stars vimething has to give For the Al. it was their second win in the last four years The AL's vic tory was only their second in the past 15 tries, and only third in the last 24 times They hase often been criticized for their losing ways But. one fails to recognize that the last NL squad to win the World Series was the St la h iis Cardinals in 1982 So. while the NL might consistently win one battle, the AL consistently wins each war The la>s Angeles Dodgers Fernando Valenzuela relieved (iooden in the fourth inning and struck out five consecutive batters to tie Carl Hubbcll's 52-year old record In his three innnings. Valenzuela allowed only one hit and ran his streak of scoreless all star innings to 7W He also became the first pitcher in all star history to stnkc out the side twice He last accomplish cd that feat in the 1984 all star contest Getting away from baseball, congratulations arc in order for the Great White Shark. Australian Greg Norman, for winning this year's men's British Open golf championship Earlier this year Norman had led the Master's and C S Open golf tournaments before squandering them away Norman, through all his futility this year, had set a single season money winning record in the United States by earning S547.779 At the British Open he added a lofty sum of $105,UK) to that Not a bad year's work by any means For years John McEnroe was the best metts singles player in the world From 1981 84 McEnroe won four straight Wimbledon championships as a singles player and formed with Peter Fleming to form the best men's doubles team in the world as well I-ast year McEnroe was upset early at Wimbledon Now. after six months away from the sport that nude him the best in the world. McEnroe is ready to return Even though McEnroe was the best player in the world, he was often criticized and haled lor his temper which produced anything but respect and showered him with numerous fines McEnroe says he has a new outlook on life, thanks to the birth of his son Kevin, now seven weeks old. and his engagement to actress Tatum i i Seal McEnroe's first scheduled nutch will take place on fhursduv against Ivan L^ndl. the current number one ranked player in the world Only time will tell if Mc Enroe has changed, but it he becomes too predic table, it might be nice to sec him return to his old ways W .C .C .C .
