followed by Paul Mayo and Randy
Wylie’s scores of 75. John Saffle shot
a 78, while Flint Nelson finished
with an 81.
Ellis said those scores were three
to eight shots above what he ex
pected.
A&M went in to the final round
trailing eventual champion Florida
by only five strokes, but dropped to
sixth place with a team total of 299
for the day.
The Aggies’ three day total Was
873, 17 strokes behind Florida and
nine strokes behind second place
finisher Texas Christian.
Also finishing ahead of the Aggies
were LSU at 867, Oklahoma at 869
and Auburn at 872.
Ellis said the Aggies just need
some consistency.
“Out of the nine rounds we’ve
played this year, six have been very
good,” Ellis said, “And three have
been very poor. And those three
rounds have been the last.”
Ellis can’t figure out the reason
for the final round collapse and it’s
beginning to bother him.
“I don’t like it,” Ellis said, “And I
can’t offer any explanation for
(struggling in the final round). We
just need to keep getting ourselves
into that situation and get used to
being there. We have to learn to play
the same in the third round as we do
in the first.”

LOS ANGELES — Orel
Hershiser pitched Los Angeles to an
8-2 victory over the wasteful St.
Louis Cardinals Thursday night and
helped throw the switch on a power
surge that carried the Dodgers to a
sweep of the first two games of the
National League playoffs.
Greg Brock hit a two-run homer
in the fourth inning off St. Louis
starter Joaquin Andujar, while Ken
Landreaux doubled twice and sin
gled, drove in a run and scored
three times. Bill Madlock added
three singles, two of which drove in
runs, to the Dodgers' 13-hit attack.
Hershiser, 19-3 with 11 consec
utive victories to dose the season, al
lowed eight hits and gave up only
one St. Louis run until the ninth. He
also drove in the Dodgers’ first run
to ignite a three-run third inning.
Hershiser walked five, struck out
four, and got into his groove after
muddling through some early-in-
ning problems. At one point in the
late innings, he retired eight in a row
and allowed only three hits in the fi
nal five ings. Two of the hits came in
the ninth inning when the Cardinals
scored their second run.
The Cardinals failed on two
fronts. Andujar, 21-12 after fin
ishing the season with three straight
losses, was ineffective after retiring
the first seven batters, contributing
to his own downfall with a costly er
ror. And the normally opportunistic
Cardinals failed time and again to
capitalize on chances to score against
Hershiser.
Both Vince Coleman and Willie
McGee, the Cardinals’ two speed
sters, were thrown out trying to steal
in the first inning by catcher Mike
Scioscia, and the Cardinals stranded
five baserunners in the first three in
nings.
The playoffs move to St. Louis for
Games 3, 4 and 5 on Saturday, Sun
day and Monday. Saturday’s game
will match right-handers Bob Welch,
14-4, for Los Angeles, against Danny
Cox, 18-9.
In Game 1 Wednesday night,
L.A.’s Fernando Valenzuela hand
cuffed the Cardinals on seven hits
through 6 1/3 innings of work to
gain his first victory in over a month.
And just as he was Thursday night,
Bill Madlock was the offensive cat
alyst for the Dodgers.
Braves hire
ex-Pirate
manager
Associated Press
ATLANTA — The Atlanta
Braves have hired Chuck Tanner
to manage the club for the next
five years.
Team owner Ted Turner
made the announcement Thurs
day after an hour long meeting
with Tanner and team president
Bill Bartholomay. Terms, of the
contract were not disclosed.
Turner said John Mullen
would remain as general man
ager “right now, the way things
are.”
But Tanner “will have a lot of
control” of the National League
team. T urner said.
Tanner, who was fired Mon
day after eight seasons with the
Pittsburgh Pirates, replaces
Bobby Wine, who took over as
manager in August after Eddie
Haas was fired.
He will be the 13th manager
since the Braves moved to Atlanta
from Milwaukee 20 years ago.
Three of the former managers
were hired on an interim basis
late in the season.
Since his firing earlier this
week, Tanner has mentioned as a
candidate for other baseball jobs,
but he said he came to Atlanta be
cause “first of all, they wanted
me. It’s nice to be wanted. It
didn’t take long; it was a quick
agreement. We shook hands.
That was our contract.”
Tanner led the 1979 Pirates to
a 98-64 record and the Eastern
Division title. Pittsburgh defeated
the Baltmore Orioles in the
World Series in seven games.
