Healthy White key to Pokes’ success
CFA Blue Persian Female Kitten. 779-6418. 183t7/29
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (AP)
— Nobody asks Danny White “How
are you?” It’s “How’s your wrist?”
The answer is always the same —
“It hurts.”
“The Wrist” is the hottest topic at
the Cowboys’ 1987 training camp.
The veteran Cowboys’ quar
terback, who recently signed a new
two-year contract with an optipn on
a third year, suffered a broken wrist
in Dallas’ ninth game of the 1986
season. ••
As the football gods would have it,
Carl Banks of the New York Giants
broke more than White’s wrist with a
blindside sack.
\ He crunched Dallas’ season as
well. The Giants went to the Super
Bowl in Pasadena. The Cowboys
went into a Super Pout at Valley
Ranch.
The Whiteless Cowboys plunged
from a 6-2 start to a 1-7 finish and
their worst season since 1966.
The condition of White’s wrist ap
pears key to the Cowboys’ comeback
hopes.
“I can throw decently,” White
said. “I’m about 95 per cent. There
is no mobility in the wrist.”
White then described how he has
to change his throwing motion, sort
of a stiff-wristed, javelin-tosser’s
form.
There are some things he can’t do
anymore.
“I can’t run to my left and throw
with any velocity,” he said. “It’s just
not the same. Timing will be so crit
ical now with my receivers. The side
line patterns could be a little harder.
I’ll have to throw the ball early.”
White worked long and hard in
the off-season with his receivers —so
often that he developed a sore arm.
“Our off-season was critical. I bet
I threw the ball three times as much
as I ever have done before.”
White suffered ligament damage
when his wrist was broken but doc
tors didn’t discover it. A cast was
placed on the wrist and there was no
operation. Ligaments need immedi
ate attention or they wither away.
Soon, the ligaments disintegrated
and now White is without vital liga
ments in the wrist of his throwing
hand.
White says “The Wrist” could get
worse as the year progresses.
“Doctors have told me it might ^et
worse with continuous play,” he said.
“They can tape it but it’s still an in
ternal thing. A player tapped me on
the elbow me other day and it liked
to have killed me.”
White says a big key is icing his
wrist down the minute he quits
throwing the ball.
“The longer it takes to ice it down,
the more it will swell up,” White says.
“So I have to ice it in a hurry. I’ve got
an arm like a baseball pitcher now.”
Then there is Novocain. White
could use the pain-killer but he
won’t.
“We’re building an offense
a long time with a lot of emphafe
deep routes,” White says. “Weil
to take more advantage of A
Sherrard’s speed. I think about
new offense a lot when my wrist
hurting.”
White says Sherrard is bounil
superstar status in the NFL,
“He is improving as rapid]
possible,” White says. “He's ftl
Jerry Rice (of the San Frants
49ers). We’re basing oui wholef;
ing game around him. Thisyeli
don’t think anything will holdl
hack.”
“I went to different doctors about
an operation,” White said. “One doc
tor wanted to operate but we de
cided not to go that route. The doc
tors had never heard of another
quarterback having the ligament
missing from their wrist. One doctor
can do ligament transplants, but I
wouldn’t want to take a chance on
that.”
His wrist is always on White’s
mind.
“When I wake up in the morning
it aches, not bad, but it aches,” he
said. “I have to take sort of a funny
little angle when I sign my name. It
sure has crimped my golf and tennis
game.”
“I’d probably have to keep doing
it once I started. Normally, I start
the season healthy then get hurt. At
least I’m reversing the trend.”
Dallas Coach Tom Landry says
he’s not sure how much pain White
will be able to stand.
“We’ll go with Danny as the
starter, subject to change,” Landry
says. “He will start both preseason
games out here in California and
play about a half in both.
“I can’t ask him if he hurts. I’ll just
go by performance. I think he’ll
throw the ball well enough for us.
He does have a new throwing mo
tion. It’s noticeable.”
White is excited about the Cow
boys’ 1987 offensive plans.
White says he’ll try to to gel.:

“We’ve got to get the ballio(j|

Rangers finally reach .500mark
ARLINGTON (AP) — Manager
iger
Bobby Valentipe and some of nis
players downplayed it, but it was evi
dent in the Texas Rangers’ club
house that they were glad to get the
monkey off their backs.
“It’s been a long climb back to
.500,” second baseman Jerry
Browne said. “It’s been dodging us
all season.”
Since losing the first game of the
season at Baltimore, the Rangers
haven’t been on the credit side of the
ledger this year, stumbling out of the
gate to a 1-10 record.
On Monday night, for the first
time since the second game of the
season — when they were 1-1 — they
reached the .500 mark when they
rallied for two runs in the bottom of
the ninth to beat the Milwaukee
Brewers, 5-4, at Arlington Stadium.
Catcher Mike Stanley, whose one-
out double provided the tying and
winning runs in the ninth, said it was
a big thrill for the team to finally
reach " '
the break-even point.
“And it’s a big thrill for me, too,”
said Stanley, who was mobbed by his
teammates after delivering the
game-winner. “We’re on a roll. It
proves we can play with any team in
the league.”
The victory was the first for the
Rangers over Milwaukee in seven
meetings this season and was accom
plished against reliever Dan Plesac,
whose 20 saves are second high in
the American League.
“Climbing this far back shows
we’ve got it together,” said right
fielder Ruben Sierra, whose loth
home run of the season provided the
Rangers with an early 2-1 lead.
“We re getting the hitting and the
pitching at the same time.”
Valentine called Monday night’s
dramatic victory “a nice, exciting
win,” but downplayed the impor
tance of being at .500.
“It’s nothing special because it was
never our goal to be just a .500
team,” Valentine said. “Of course,
it’s better than being two games un
der. We’ve still got a long way to go.”
Davies takes Women's Open
EDISON TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP)
— British Open champion Laura
Davies sank three long putts to shoot
a 3-under-par 71 and win the long-
est-ever U.S. Women’s Open in an
18-hole playoff with Ayako Oka-
moto and LPGA Hall of Earner
JoAnne Garner Tuesday.
Okamoto had a 1-over-par 73 in
what amounted to the fifth round of
the rain-delayed golf tournament,
which stretched over six days at the
Plainfield Country Club. The 48-
year-old Garner had a 74 as she
failed in her quest to win a third U.S.
Women’s Open title and end a two-
year victory drought.
“I reckon I am the happiest per
son in the world right now,” Davies
said. “I don’t know what it means
yet. I was just out there having fun
and this turned out to be one of the
greatest rounds of golf in my life.”
Davies actually had five good
rounds at Plainfield, and was the
only player in the 153-women field
not to go over par duritig the t6ur-
nament.
“I would have to say my putting
was it for me this week,” said Davies,
23, who is to defend her British
crown in Cornwall, England, Thurs
day. “This week has been my best for
holing out putts.”
Davies earned $55,000 for the vic
tory. She was the leading money
winner on the European women’s
tour the past two years.
Okamoto and Garner each earned
$23,824.
Davies had a lot of help with her
putting all week from her caddie,
Tony, her 26-year-old brother.
Davies had her nerves tested on
the first three holes, where she sank
putts of 4, 3 and 6 feet to keep her
tied at even par with Okamoto and
Garner.
That changed at the fourth hole,
when Davies nit a 9-iron to within 20
feet and sank the putt to go 1-under-
par. She never trailed after that, al
though Garner managed to grab a
share of the lead when Davies bo
geyed the par-4 10th hole after hit
ting over the green with her second
shot.
When Garner, who had problems
staying in the fairway with her driver
all day, bogeyed the 11th hole, Da
vies had the lead for good.
