INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Once again, the Los Angeles Lakers
re sampling the NBA vintage champagne.
And once again the Philadelphia 76ers are left with dreams
f what might have been.
The Lakers clinched the NBA championship with a slim
14-104 victory over the 76ers Tuesday night. Now they have a
arade through downtown streets to look forward to.
All the 76ers have is a somber return to the City of Brotherly
Love and weeks of chastisement on radio talk shows.
The Lakers captured their second NBA crown in three
icasons with the victory, winning the series, 4-2, and tying an
NBA playoff record with a 12-2 record after sweeping Phoenix
nd San Antonio in the Western Conference.
For the 76ers — who were seeking to become the first team in
NBA history to rebound from a 3-1 deficit in the title series — it
was another bitter end to a championship series. They’ve lost in
:he finals three times in the last six years.
For 76ers’ superstar Julius Erving — who led his team with 30
oints — this one may be the hardest to swallow.
“I’m more disappointed this time than any other year,”
Erving said. “As to why, I don’t know. It just hurts more than
other year. It’s very painful.”
And while the 76ers were dreaming of what might have been,
50 feet away the Lakers were letting loose with champagne.
Coming off last year’s shocking loss to the Houston Rockets in
the first round of the playoffs, the Lakers said the champion
ship was much sweeter.
“The guys made up their minds that no matter what the cost,
were going to get our title back,” said Laker guard Magic
Johnson, who was named the 1980 series Most Valuable Player
and grabbed the honor again this year.
Los Angeles center Kareem Abdul-Jabbar agreed last year
weighed heavily on the Lakers’ minds, and also said Sunday’s
embarrassing 135-102 loss to Philadelphia provided another
incentive.
“We remembered Sunday, we remembered it real well,” he
said as his 20-month-old son, Amir, sat on his shoulder in the
crowded locker room.
“It’s hard to put this championship into words. Last year we
were at the bottom and now we’ve come all the way back to the
top.”
In the somber Philadelphia locker room, Maurice Cheeks
said that the better team had won.
“I can’t say I’ve ever seen a better team,” Cheeks said.
Cardinals squeeze out 5-4 victory
United Press International
Whitey Herzog put the
squeeze on the Montreal Expos
Tuesday night.
The St. Louis Cardinals,
under Herzog’s instructions,
employed the old-fashioned
squeeze bunt on two occasions
and were successful both times
in defeating the Expos, 5-4, in
12 innings.
The Cardinals tied the score,
2- 2, in the seventh when pinch-
hitter Mike Ramsey squeezed
home Tom Herr from third.
And they scored what proved to
be the winning run in the 12th
inning on another suicide
squeeze play when Ken Oberk-
fell brought home Willie
McGee. McGee had tripled in
the go-ahead run that broke a
3- 3 tie.
“We played good and we ex
ecuted good,” Herzog said. “We
bunted three guys over and
scored twice on the squeeze
play.”
Herzog’s only regret was that
he didn’t use the squeeze play in
the fourth inning when the Car
dinals left the bases loaded after
scoring one run.
“I wish I would have had the
squeeze in the fourth inning,
maybe we wouldn’t have had to
play so long,” he said.
The usually reliable Woody
Fryman lost in relief for Mon
treal and dropped his record to
2-2.
A1 Oliver drove in two of the
Expos’ runs with singles in the
first and 12th innings.
Elsewhere in the National
League, Philadelphia downed
Chicago, 5-2, Pittsburgh whip
ped New York, 6-2, San Diego
beat Cincinnati, 4-1, and Atlanta
edged Los Angeles, 4-3.
PHILLIES 5, CUBS 2 — At
Philadelphia, Marty Bystrom
scattered five hits in eight in
nings to help the Phillies hand
the Cubs their ninth straight
loss.
PIRATES 6, METS 2 — In
New York, Don Robinson cele
brated his 25th birthday with a
two-run, fourth-inning double
and 7V$ innings of three-hit
pitching in pacing the Pirates.
PADRES 4, REDS 1 — John
Montefusco and Luis DeLeon
combined on a three-hitter and
Terry Kennedy drove in two
runs to spark the Padres, in San
Diego.
BRAVES 4, DODGERS 3 —
At Los Angeles, Dale Murphy
scored twice and singled home
the tie-breaking run in the
seventh inning to lead the
Braves.
In the American League, Bos
ton Red Sox manager Ralph
Houk, quite clearly, has found a
system for winning—all he does
his loosen his right arm and
point to the bullpen.
Mark Clear handles the rest.
The Red Sox, coming from
behind to win a game for the
19th time this season, used a
Carney Lansford single with
none out in the 10th inning
Tuesday night to give Boston a
4-3 victory over the New York
Yankees.
The triumph was the fourth
in a row for the Red Sox, with
the decision going to Clear, 5-1,
who now has four wins and
seven saves in his last 11 appear
ances. George Frazier fell to 1-1
as the Yankees lost for the sixth
time in seven games.
“We have been doing this all
year, battling back, battling
back, battling back,” said Clear,
who helped the Red Sox main
tain a share of first place in the
American League East with De
troit. “We played an excellent
game and got good perform
ances from everybody.”
Jim Rice led off the 10th with
a walk and moved to third when
Carl Yastrzemski ripped a single
through the middle. Two pitch
es later, Lansford drilled the
game-winner as the Red Sox
boosted their extrainning re
cord this season to 5-0.
In other AL games, it was'
California 11, Toronto 4; De
troit 8, Cleveland 3; Baltimore 4/
Milwaukee 2; Kansas City 9,
Minnesota 4; Seattle 2, Texas 1,
in 14 innings; and Chicago 5,
Oakland 4.

and Cal Ripken Jr. hit home'
runs and Scott McGregor pitch- 1
ed a six-hitter to post the wih>
over Milwaukee.
