sports Brewers let it get away TANK ^NAIHARA United Press International MILWAUKEE — The 79th World Series is tied at one game apiece and either club can win it, but if the St. Louis Cardinals do the Milwaukee Brewers will know precisely who to blame. Themselves. Not-Yet-Famous-Fhatia$ They were moving along rather nicely Wednesday night in Busch Stadium. First they had a three-run lead after 2'/a in nings and later a two-run mar gin going into the bottom of the sixth, only to let the Redbirds pull the game out, 5-4, and square the Series.

The Cardinals worked for the ballgame and de served to w'in it.” Undeniably, the 3-2 pitch by Pete Ladd on which Lonnie Smith walked to fill the bases was a critical one. It was a fastball that could've been called either way by plate umpire Bill Haller, but he called it ball four and the capacity crowd of 53,723 greeted his decision with ringing cheers. Whitey Herzog, the Cards’ manager, then called on his third designated hitter of the game — Steve Braun. Braun patiently stood at the plate and took four pitches, forcing in George Hendrick from third with the go-ahead run. In the Brewers’ clubhouse, some newsmen focused on the fourth ball to Smith and asked Simmons whether he didn’t THE VEST OF WARPED Classic strips from the past 2 years of "Warped” by Scott McCullar Available at: BOBBIE’S BOOKS Loupot’s Whole Earth, Hast ing’s, & 216 Reed McDonald Bldg.

Simmons had been kicking over the call with Haller after the pitch and the writers wanted to know what he had said. “Look, that wasn’t the pitch that beat us,” Simmons came right back. “Those four balls to Braun is what did it, so there’s nothing to say about the pitch to Lonnie Smith. I don’t want to discuss it.” Braun, used primarily as a pinch hitter by Herzog this year, was more than willing to discuss the four pitches he took. “I have to admit when I came out of the dugout the idea of being in a World Series with all the excitement was in my mind,” he said. “I felt I wanted to do something for the Cardinals. I watched every pitch and prog rammed my mind to lay off them and not swing at balls that were not in the strike z.one.” . .AN 17 WHAT'S- PUTL^MT THAT) TH& MPL l£, LIKE, IP YOU POM't RUM IT OUT OP THE £Np ZONE, lT'e» ( LIKE.,TWO OR THREE FDIKJ-TS OR SOMETH IM0! ^^— : GET OPF, NOT THREE R3INTC-.

United Press International HOUSTON — Moses Malone’s first visit since he signed a $2.2 million-a-year con tract with the Philadelphia 76ers caused him to feel closer to Rockets fans than he did during the six years he played for them, and further away from Rockets management than he ever did. Malone’s appearance in a preseason game in the Summit Wednesday night drew the first sellout crowd for a Rockets’ pre season game, but it remains un answered whether the relatively slow Malone will help the famed 7(iers’ fast break. Rockets fans, who had watch ed Malone carry the team for six seasons, gave him a standing ovation that embarrassed him. (He had declined the Rockets’ request for a special Moses [lub sport req pan showing peeling every TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY SCHLITZ COLLEGE REP mike blazoski Malone night at which hisjeno would he retired.) “I think it’s great that tki many fans showed up. They made me feel great,” he saidaf ter his so-so performance man 89-H8 Rockets win. He led the Sixers in scoring with 15 points in the 26 minute he played as Coach Billy Cun ningham took a long lookatrc- serves, but during the first fey minutes of the third quartei defensive rebounds and odt^i passes helped ignite the regulars into a breakneck running game. “I wasn’t really nervousabpufi coming back,” Malone “T his was just a preseaon gam'e and ;t lot of people played.

He's getting into the Howol things,” Erving said. y 1 After the game, Malone seemed bitter about the RockeiS failure to meet his attorney'sde- mand for a $2 million-a-year contract. Malone’s lawyer, Lee Fentriss of Washington, DC. turned down two deals which would have paid him more than $1.5 million-a-year and then he solicited the more lucritivedeal with 76ers’ owner Harold Kali six weeks ago. “1 think 1 didn’t get no re spect from the Rockets frohi office,” he said. He talked as if a phonecall from Rockets owner Charlie Thomas after the offer sheel was signed with the 76ers would have influenced him toreturnio the Rockets. (Thomas, corf- vinced Malone did not want to play for Houston, decidednotW match Katz’ offer — thus the trade). Thomas was quoted assaying Malone seemed to want to plat more for the 7(iers than heditl for the Rockets. “It was a business deal. IcaiiJ say where I would rather pla'tj here on in Philadelphia? Malone said. “My lawyer don’t make no decisions. 1 make the decision!- If the owner and general mana ger (of the Rockets) wanted talk to me (about where 1 wanltj to play) they could have calleil me. They knew' my number® six years. I feel I played’ here for six years and got respect,” he said. -j (Mi “We’ve ha\ nball field lismissal,” sail n performa Patera, reac a, had only o Seahawk 01 ihompson.
