| tames 3 and 4 of their best-of-
even Campbell Conference final
Svill be played in St. Louis on Tues-
layand Thursday nights.
Ehvner of four Stanley Cup rings
font his davs with the Montreal Ca-
nadieiis, Risebrough scored twice in
the first period and once in the
third.
Risebrough, Lanny McDonald
and John Tonelli, the oldest line in
the NHL, played like youngsters all
night, setting the hard-working ex
ample early and contributing the
bulk of the scoring.
Risebrough opened the scoring at
8:51 of the first period on a fine in
dividual effort at a time when the
Calgary offense was on the verge of
getting frustrated.
St. Louis goaltender Rick
Wamsley had made five magnificent
saves and the Flames had squan
dered several other good scoring
chances.
But Risebrough turned de
fenseman Jim Pavese inside out on a
one-on-one confrontation and slid a
backhand through Wamsley’s legs.
That was the spark that kept Cal-
garv's of fense on the attack, leading
to a 3-0 first-period lead that put the
Flames in total control.
Calgary's other goals were scored
bv Joe Mullen, McDonald, Colin Pat
terson, Dan Quinn and A1 Maclnnis.
The Flames demonstrated a vas-
tly-improved power play Sunday
night, scoring four times on eight
opportunities. In three regular-sea-
son games against St. Louis, Calgary
was 0-for-1 1 on the power play and
in Game 1 Friday they were l-for-5.
Rob Ramage and Doug Gilmour
scored for St. Louis in the second
and third periods.

innings Saturday as the Boston Red Sox rode a
four-run first inning to a 4-1 victory.
Dave Kingman ruined Clemens’ shutout bid
with his fourth home run of the season, into the
left-field screen leading off the seventh inning.
The only other hits off Clemens, 5-0, were sin

facing in May 1983 when a knee injury almost
wrecked his career. Since ending a three-year re

son, the 34-year-old right-hander has given up
only three earned runs and has pitched a com

he best-o: hie to help the team,” New- National
heduled:: na , n said. “In that (ninth-in-
ting) situation, all I was trying to do was avoid a
>l player hikeout. I was just wanted to make contact and
points foJt the ball in play.”
Newman’s bouncer was hobbled by Houston
irst baseman Glenn Davis, who was charged with
n error, and allowed Andres Galarraga to score
om third base.

i I'm concerned they’re legitimate wins because
haven’t surrendered the lead.”

s
Montreal first baseman Jason Thompson to open
the scoring in the second inning.
With the bases loaded and one out, Houston
starter Mike Scott hit a chopper to first. Thomp

hitter Wayne Krenchicki’s sacrifice fly and Tim
Raines’ RBI single.
