Associated Press National League Astros 2, Braves 1 HOUSTON — Enos Cabell was an unlikely character because of a bout with the Hu, but the Astros’ captain delivered the necessary he roics to achieve a split with the At lanta Braves. Cabell’s two-out, pinch-double off f iitcher Terry Forster, 0-1, drove tome Alan Ashby from first to lift the Astros to a 2-1 victory over the Braves. The 11-year veteran stayed iti the clubhouse until Houston starter No lan Ryan was pinch-hit for in the sev enth inning. “Because he’s been sick, I didn’t even think he would pinch hit,” said winning pitcher Dave Smith, 3-1, who went two innings. Craig Reynolds gave Houston an early 1-0 lead with a home run in the third. With one out in the ninth, Ashby singled off Forster. One out later, Cabell hit a drive to the left-center gap that left fielder Brad Komminsk barely missed catching. Center fielder Dale Murphy backed up the play and relayed the ball to shortstop Rafael Ramirez, whose throw to catcher Rick Cerone was slightly up the third-base line, allowing Ashby to slide home safely. who were suffering from an early- season case of cold bats, “kind of got on each other” before coming to Texas — and the Rangers found out Sunday that the self-help philosophy was ef fective. Upshaw hit two home runs and Buck Martinez and George Bell also homered, leading the Blue Jays to a b-3 victory over the Rangers for their fourth consecutive triumph. The weekend sweep of the Rang ers was an important boost for the Blue Jays, Upshaw said. “We needed a good series,” Up shaw said, “and we had a good series with the bat. We feel we can win against anybody. We feel that we’re one of the better clubs in the league. We can all hit. We push ourselves to hit.” Doyle Alexander, 3-0, went the route, scattering 10 hits. Ranger starter Mike Mason, 2-2, went 5 2/3 innings, giving up four runs on five hits. The Rangers have dropped five in a row. DOUGLAS JEWELRY Tigers 5, Brewers 0 Mets 5, Pirates 4 MILWAUKEE — Walt Terrell, who entered the game with a 5.68 earned run average, hurled a four- hitter for his first American League shutout Sunday as the Detroit Tigers blanked Milwaukee 5-0.

CHICAGO — Yogi Berra was fired as manager of the New York Yan kees Sunday and was replaced by Billy Martin, who will take over the team for the fourth time in his managing career. “The action was taken by the Yankees and we felt it was in the best inter ests of the club,” said Yankees principal owner George Steinbrenner. The dismissal was announced after the Yankees lost 4-3 to the Chicago White Sox, the club’s third straight loss and 10th in 16 games this season. Yankees General Manager Clyde King read Steinbrenner’s statement. King added, on his own, that Steinbrenner “would rather fire 25 players than to fire Yogi, but we all know that would be impossible.” There had been talk last season that Berra would be fired as the Yan kees fell far behind the eventual World Series champion Detroit Tigers. But last Oct. 25, Steinbrenner ended that speculation when he an nounced Berra would return in 1985. “The Yankees will not be making any changes for 1985,” Steinbrenner said. “Yogi Berra’s contract will be honored. “I just can’t understand all these teams changing managers the way they do. The lack of stability is alarming. It’s startling to me how many teams changed managers this year. It’s getting so that you can’t even make news any more when you make a change.” Rumors of Berra’s firing began circulating early last week, when the Yankees lost games Tuesday night and Wednesday night at home to Bos ton. The speculation intensified prior to Thursday night’s game against Bos ton, when it was rumored that Berra would be fired if the club did not win. The Yankees beat Boston 5-1 Thursday night. Martin had been working as a scout for the Yankees before he was named manager Sunday. Martin has already managed 728 games for Steinbrenner, the most-ever during the owner’s tenure. Sunday’s game was Berra’s 178th under Stein brenner. ;u>l 00=0 Assoc i 10% off all Bikes In Stock Includes ’64 Models Already on Salt WASHINGTC c ensed landfills w ith groundwat lirements, tin ^ojise oversigh Sunday.
