Auburn meets Florida
in top SEC matchup
(AP) — Having grown up near
Augusta, Ga., Pat Dye knows some
thing about Amen Corner, the fa
mous stretch of holes 10-11-12-13
where the Masters golf tournament
often is decided.
According to Dye, his the sixth-
ranked Auburn Tigers, 6-0-1, are
about to begin their own version of
Amen Corner with games 8-9-10-11.
It starts Saturday night against No.
10 Florida (5-2), followed by No. 4
Florida State (6-1), No. 12 Georgia
(6-2) and No. 16 Alabama (5-2).
Florida is the only Southeastern
Conference team to nave a winning
record (4-2) over the Tigers in Dye’s
previous six years at Auburn, so it’s
no wonder that he says, “We haven’t
played a team like Florida yet. I
think Florida is better than Tennes
see. I think we have four teams left
to play that are better than Tennes
see (Auburn and Tennessee tied 20-
20 in September).”
The pick is .. . Auburn 24-17.
Saturday’s only other game be
tween members of the Associated
Press Top Twenty finds No. 20
Michigan State at No. 15 Ohio State,
which is favored by four points.
Since Michigan State is 3-0-1 in
the Big Ten and Ohio State is 3-1,
the winner looms as the only remain
ing challenger to first-place Indiana,
4-0.. .. Ohio State 21-14.

Yankee first baseman, Padre rookie among All Stars
NEW YORK (AP) — New York
ankees first baseman Don Mat-
ngly is the first player voted to The
Kiated Press major-league All-
tarftam for four consecutive years,
hiBSan Diego catcher Benito San-
igo is the first-ever rookie and one
'eight first-time selections.
Other first-time winners an-
liunced Thursday were Wade
oggs of the Red Sox at third base,
tail Samuel of the Phillies at sec-
idf George Bell of the Blue Jays in
ft, Jimmy Key of the Blue Jays as
i•nanded pitcher, Steve Bedrosian
ithe Phillies as relief pitcher, Paul
blitor of the Brewers as designated
tter,and Alan Trammell of the Ti
ts at shortstop.
Two other players repeated from
1986 — Kirby Puckett of the World
Series champion Twins in center
field and Roger Clemens of the Red
Sox as right-handed pitcher.
Andre Dawson of the Chicago
Cubs, last an AP All-Star in 1983,
was named right-fielder.
Clemens’ victory margin was the
largest on the team, which was se
lected by print and broadcast mem
bers of The Associated Press. He
beat Nolan Ryan of the Astros 167-
12.
There were eight players from the
American League and four from the
National League. The AP began se
lecting one team for both leagues in
1982.
Molitor, a career .291 hitter going
into the season, batted .353, hit 16
homers and drove in 75 runs despite
spending seven weeks on the dis
abled list. He had a 39-game hitting
streak from July 16 to Aug. 25, the
fifth-longest hitting streak this cen
tury.
“I’m somewhat suprised because I
didn’t DH for more than fifty or
sixty games this season,” Molitor
said. “It’s caught me off guard.”
Hamstring problems forced him
on the disabled list from April 30 to
May 26 and from June 27 until the
day the hitting streak began. He beat
Larry Parrish 132-25 in the voting.
Santiago, the San Diego Padres
catcher, beat out another rookie,
Matt Nokes of the Detroit Tigers,
102-63. He was regarded as one of

"Beehive ", Marcel Marceau and Frankenstein .
Season tickets to the MSC OPAS Theatre Series are available

season and his 34-game hitting
streak from Aug. 25 to Oct. 2, en
sured the recognition.
Santiago was in Puerto Rico
Thursday and the Padres could not
locate him to tell him the news.
Boggs, who beat out Montreal’s
Tim Wallach 117-44, led the AL in
1987 with a .363 average, tripled his
career high with 24 home runs and
had 98 RBI, 20 more than his pre
vious best.
He joined Charlie Gehringer,
Chuck Klein, A1 Simmons and Willie
Keeler as the only players to get 200
or more hits in five straight seasons.
“It’s remarkable that he hits the
ball for average and for power,”
Boston GM Lou Gorman said
Thursday. “I knew he was capable of
OH..
doing that. He’s always had the po
tential to do that. I think he tried to
forget about contact and average
and drive the ball.”
At shortstop, Trammell crushed
Ozzie Smith of St. Louis 139-45.
Trammell led Detroit to the AL East
title, batting .343 with 28 homers
and 105 RBI, all career bests.
In other routs, Dawson beat Tony
Gwynn of San Diego 147-37 in right.
Bell beat Montreal’s Tim Raines
172-19 in left, and Bedrosian beat
St. Louis’ Todd Worrell 140-17 in
the bullpen.
Clemens, the 1986 AL MVP and
Cy Young Award winner, started the
season 6-6 after a spring training
holdout, then went 14-3, winning 11
of his last 13 decisions. He finished
20-9 with a 2.97 earned run average.
Gorman said Clemens would have
been more impressive if he hadn’t
held out.
“Anybody that misses spring
training pays for it,” Gorman said.
“There were some ballgames he lost
that the real Roger Clemens would
not have lost. I’m delighted because
they’ve finally recognized how good
he is. He’s the best pitcher in base
ball today in my mind.”
In closer votes, Mattingly won out
over Oakland rookie Mark McGwire
90-53 at first, Samuel beat Chicago’s
Ryne Sandberg 90-39 at second,
Puckett beat Eric Davis of Cincinnati
96-62 in center field and Key beat
Minnesota’s Frank Viola 108-53 as
left-handed starter.
