Page 6/The Battalion/Wednesday, June 17,1987 Sports Houston sending messages to rivals By Ed Bodde Assistant Sports Editor It’s only the first week in June, but one gets the feeling the Hous ton Astros are sending a few mes sages to division rivals Cincinnati, San Fran cisco and ————————— Los Angeles. Analysis Like, “move out of the way, first-place belongs to us.” After a rough start, the Astros have begun playing the kind of baseball that made them National League Western Division cham pions last year. Perhaps they’ve fi nally put the sting of last year’s National League Championship Series loss behind them. In any case, the Astros have won eight of their last 11 games and now trail first place Cincin nati by only '/2 game. Included in the streak were three wins in four games at Los Angeles, where the Astros tradi tionally have had little success. What had to be particularly pleasing to Manager Hal Lanier was the pitching performance of Danny Darwin Sunday against the Dodgers. Darwin hurled a complete game two-hitter. With Bob Knepper having an off year, it’s important for Dar win to step forward and prove that he can provide quality starts. Smith stays healthy, the Astros look solid in all areas, something that can’t be said for divisional foes Cincinnati, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Sure, Cincinnati has a power packed lineup featuring Kal Dan iels, Eric Davis and Dave Parker, but the Reds get good starting pitching about as often as the Cel tics lose in the Boston Garden. KW 1 it Citico eni of t mill All ill there Add in Mike Scott, Nolan Ryan and Jim Deshaies, and the Astros have perhaps the best starting ro tation in baseball. But what does all this mean? Well, in a year when very few teams have more than two quality starters, it means the Houston As tros may just pitch themselves to another divisional title. As long as ace reliever Dave Going into Monday’s game in the Astrodome, Cinncinati’s start ing rotation had a combined ERA of 5.54. And the Reds just won’t be able to continue winning games after spotting teams six- or seven-run leads. Once and for all, it's clear that Los Angeles’ sub .500 record last year wasn’t the result of injuries. And this year things just might get worse. The Dodgers continue to hi trouble defensively, and none their relievers could put ouiij fire, even if he was givenahoj I^ts Angeles’ 10 saves are the lot est in the National League. This leaves the Astros, aj dare I say it, the Giants to battleJ out for the divisional ude.

Nobody can hit that pitch.” Scott was at it again against the Reds Monday ni^ht, tossing a combined seven-hit shutout with reliever Dave Smith, leading the Astros to a 4-0 victory. “We don’t have anything to be ashamed of,” said Bell, who struck out twice, grounded out and flew out. “He had great stuff and very good velocity. I’m glad he’s not pitching again tomor row.” Scott beat the Reds for the fifth straight time over the past two seasons. He has a combined earned run average of 1.75 in his last 56% innings against the Reds. “He made me look like a fool,” said centerfielder Tracy Jones, who entered the game batting .364. “The pitch starts out looking good and then it rises and makes you look stupid. You’re swinging at pitches over your head.” After losing two of his first three decisions this season, Scott has rebounded strongly. Mon day’s victory over the Reds was his third in a row. Scott, 8-3, struck out 14 Reds, giving him 116 for the season and tying him for the major-league lead with Seattle’s Mark Lan gston. Scott’s ERA dropped to a league-leading 2.11. “Good pitching will always stop good hitting no matter what state or country you’re in,” Reds Man ager Pete Rose said. “You saw good pitching (Monday) tonight.” Scott has recorded 34 strilt | outs in his three-game winnint j streak, walked only six and to yielded 12 hits in 25 innings “What the hell can you say a! 11 ter a performance like thatl'Ai BV'ASHI lifts Manage!

Rockets GM: Sampson dec close to Olajuwon’s pact HOUSTON (AP) — The final contract the Houston Rockets of fered Ralph Sampson had more va lue than the 12-year $2.5 million per year deal signed last November by teammate Akeem Olajuwon, general manager Ray Patterson said Tues day. “The difference in the contracts is the difference in the way you treat money — annuities, up front bo nuses, interest on money loaned,” Patterson said. “The difference is in the interpre tation of the contract. I’d sat (Sampson) contract exceedsAk in the way we interpreted it “But that’s about as sperifr want to get because we’re sin# dating in good faith and I keep it that way.” Sampson said the Rocktis failed in a pledge to match Okf won’s contract. Patterson, breaking a wceklJ silence on the subject of Samp# contract, said the Rockets si hop to sign the 7-foot-4 forward. Lakers, fans celebrai in downtown parade LOS ANGELES (AP) — Thou sands of basketball fans, waving pennants, blowing horns and snacking on “Laker purple” cot ton candy, put the full-court press on downtown Tuesday to celebrate the Los Angeles Lakers’ championship. Team members rode three floats down a 10-block route that ended at City Hall, where a bois terous crowd packed the lawn to hear Mayor Tom Bradley pro nounce the Lakers “the best bas ketball team in the history of this land.” The Lakers set up the cele bration by beating the defending champion Boston Celtics 106-93 on Sunday. Los Angeles won the best-of- seven NBA finals four games to two. On the City Hall lawn, some celebrants climbed trees to get a better look at theit heroes. A Magpc Johnson look-alike stood in his own circle of admirers Lakers’ cheerleading si danced to loud acclaim. Team pennants sprouted (rot the crowd, along with signs played off the names of favor® players. “Lakers are Magic-al,” “U Kareem’ed the Celtics,’’ “Lakers are ‘Worthy’ Cha® pions,” read signs referring f Johnson, Kareem Abdul-JaN# and James Worthy. A crowd estimated at 15 ther lined the parade route or)' tended the ceremonies at (f Hall, said Fabian Lizarraga^p 1 lice spokesman. From the podium at City Hi Abdul-Jabbar was among speaking to the cheering crowd “We want to do it again nd year so we can make this an f nual thing,” said AbduljaWv who at age 40 is the oldest pb |f in the NBA.
