Jays, Padres deal big
ROSEMONT, Ill. (AP) — Tony
Fernandez, Joe Carter, Fred
McGriff and Roberto Alomar got
traded in baseball’s biggest deal in
years and the New York Mets finally
caught Vince Coleman.
The Toronto Blue Jays sent Fer
nandez and McGriff to the San
Diego Padres for Carter and Alomar
in a deal for four of baseball’s best
players.
“We thought we’d give you an old-
fashioned baseball trade,” new
Padres general manager Joe Mcll-
vaine gleamed. “We’re trading four
All-Stars. It was kind of a gutsy trade
on both ends.”
Carter, who has averaged more
than 100 RBIs for five years, will
move into an outfield. Alomar, 22,
will fill Toronto’s search for an all-
around second baseman.
McGriff, with 105 home runs in
the last three seasons, will take over
first base and Fernandez, 28, will
play shortstop.
The Mets felt they had to do
something to replace Darryl Straw
berry’s 37 home runs and team-re
cord 108 RBIs, that he took to the
Los Angeles Dodgers. So they
dipped into the free-agent market
for the first time since 1980 and gave
Coleman a four-year contract worth
$11.95 million.
Coleman, 29, stole an average of
91 bases in each of six years, all with
St. Louis, and was successful 83 per
cent of the time. He was at his best
against the Mets, safely stealing the
first 57 times he tried against them.
Coleman batted a career-best .292
last season and stole 77 bases. He is a
lifetime .265 hitter with a chopping
swing.
The San Francisco Giants traded
reliever Steve Bedrosian to the Min
nesota Twins for a minor leaguer
and a player to be named later.
Franklin Stubbs, who was consid
ering the Braves, decided to go to
the Milwaukee Brewers. Stubbs, who
set a Houston record with 23 home
runs by a left-handed hitter last sea
son, got a three-year, $6 million deal
from the Brewers.
Agassi’s injury, comments
court ban form tournaments
LONDON (AP) — Andre Agassi
has pulled out of the Grand Slam
Cup because of a chest injury and
could face the additional pain of a
ban from some of next year’s major
tournaments.
Agassi’s second withdrawal from
the Grand Slam Cup represented
the latest twist in a strange courtship
between the much-criticized new
event and one of tennis’ most con
troversial players.
The International Tennis Feder
ation, which is organizing the tour
nament next week in Germany, said
Wednesday that Agassi had pulled
out because of an injury he suffered
last weekend during the Davis Cup
final.
But he still may be punished for
his earlier withdrawal and for com
ments ridiculing the event, including
disparaging remarks he made last
Friday when seeking readmission to

But just over 4,600 people both
ered to show up. A pretty disturbing
number and sight for those trying to
turn the tables on a lifeless program.
A&M is 2-3 so far this year. One
of those losses coming to the
Sooners, as most expected even be
fore the game started. But the boys
in maroon gave Oklahoma all it
could handle that Wednesday night,
to the pleasure of those fans who did
attend the event.
During the game, Georgetown
transfer David Edwards was sitting
behind the Aggies’ bench along with
Syracuse transfer Tony Scott. The
Big East transfers have to sit and
watch this year because of NCAA
transfer rules.
Edwards waved his hands from
his seat in the bleachers, trying to get
the Sixth Man fans involved in the
the $6 million tournament.
Agassi is expected to be out for
three to six weeks with torn rib carti-
lege and was told he could risk being
out for up to six months if he aggra
vates the injury.
The flamboyant 20-year-old,
known for his technicolor outfits
and bad-boy image as much as his
tennis skill, also pulled out of an ex
hibition Wednesday in Baton Rouge,
La., and a pair of exhibitions this
weekend in Switzerland.
Agassi’s place in the 16-player
Grand Slam Cup, which offers a re
cord $2 million to the winner, will be
taken by American compatriot Brad
Gilbert.
Agassi originally signed up to play
in the tournament, but the world’s
fourth-ranked player pulled out last
month, saying it was nothing more
than a lucrative exhibition.
game. Coming from a program like
Georgetown, he should know what
kind of crowd it takes to motivate a
team.
As the Aggies pulled closer to the
Sooners on the scoreboard, the
4,600 fans got closer to the A&M
team. Expectations were eclipsed
and the promise of the team was re
vealed.
But what will happen the next
time the Aggies take the homecourt
on December 12? Probably not
much. A&M will face Texas South
ern on the night after finals. If fans
aren’t inebriated, they’re probably
on their way home for the holidays.
But the student body will return
in the middle of January, just in time
for the Aggies’ game against Cente
nary on January 14.
Hopefully by that time the Aggies’
support will have had a change of
heart. Hopefully G. Rollie White
Coliseum will have enough seats to
hold everyone.

148 yards per game, scored 17
touchdowns and became Colorado’s
all-time leader in rushing, scoring
and all-purpose yards. Lewis aver
aged 141 yards per game.
Herman Moore teamed with Vir
ginia quarterback Shawn Moore to
form a deadly duo. Herman caught
54 passes for 1,190 yards and 13
touchdowns, and set an NCAA re
cord with at least one TD reception
in nine straight games.
Dawsey had 65 receptions for 999
yards and seven scores, including a
13-catch performance against Mi
ami, while Smith set a single-season
record for receiving yards by a tight
end with 1,156.
Syracuse coach Dick MacPherson
calls Flannery “the most complete
lineman we have ever had. He has
every tool for greatness — strength,
speed, size and intelligence.”
Garten anchored the offensive
line for the country’s sixth-best rush
ing team. A starter in 30 straight
games, he allowed only one quar
terback sack and was called for only
one penalty this season.
Maryland and Crum formed the
heart of a stingy Miami defense that
held opponents to 80 rushing yards
per game. Crum led the team in
tackles for the third straight year,
while Maryland had lO’/a sacks.
Although Notre Dame had de
fensive problems this season, they
weren’t caused by Zorich or Stone-
breaker. Despite constant double
teaming, Zorich had 58 tackles,
three sacks and one fumble recov
ery. Stonebreaker led the Irish with
95 tackles, made key fourth-quarter
interceptions in close wins over
Michigan and Michigan State and
had a fumble recovery that helped
preserve a victory over Miami.
Williams is Colorado’s all-time
sack leader with 35, including \2 1 A>
this season. “Alfred causes more
problems for opposing teams than
any other linebacker in the country,”
Colorado coach Bill McCartney said.
The All-America team will be fea
tured on Bob Hope’s annual
Christmas show, Dec. 15 from 10-11
p.m. EST on NBC.
