TORONTO- The Oakland
Athletics always manage to do
things with flair at the SkyDome.
Even without Jose Canseco hit
ting rocket shots, the A's still won
with plenty of power Wednesday
night.
Mark McGwire and Terry
Steinbach hit consecutive home
runs in the second inning, and
Harold Baines led off the ninth
with a homer that gave the A's a
4-3 victory over the Toronto Blue
Jays in Game 1 of the American
League playoffs.
Jack Morris and Dave Winfield,
the two free agents that Toronto
signed in the winter to help them
win in October, did their jobs.
Winfield hit a solo home run in
the sixth that made it 3-2, and
doubled and scored the tying run
in the eighth on John Olerud's
two-out single.
Morris had not allowed a hit
since the fourth inning before
Baines connected.
Baines singled in his first two
at-bats, then won it when he hit
Morris' second pitch of the ninth

inning into the rightfield stands.
"It was a slider up over the
plate," Baines said. "I was trying
to drive it well. I don't consider
myself a great home run hitter,
but it was a great time to hit one."
Dave Stewart went 7 2-3 in
nings and maintained his reputa
tion as a big-game pitcher, and
Dennis Eckersley enhanced his
status by pitching the ninth for a
save.
The A's won their seventh
straight playoff game, a streak
that dates back to 1989, when they
wiped out Toronto in five games.
Toronto will try to even the se
ries Thursday night when David
Cone pitches against Mike Moore.
"Everybody has kind of writ
ten us off," Steinbach said. "But
our attitude all year has been kind
of, 'Let's play ball.' Now we have
a big game tomorrow. We have a
real tough pitcher going against
us in David Cone."
Pat Borders also homered for
Toronto.
McGwire silenced another sell
out crowd in the SkyDome with a
two-run shot in the second. Stein
bach followed with a homer to
left, marking the first consecutive
playoff
Rick Cerone and Lou Piniella did
it for the New York Yankees in
1980 against the Kansas City Roy
als.
After Borders put the Blue Jays
on the board, Winfield made it a
one-run game in the sixth.
Winfield doubled with two
outs in the eighth, finishing Stew
art, and Olerud singled past re
liever Jeff Russell's reach to make
it 3-3.
Russell, acquired along with
Ruben Sierra and Bobby Witt in
the Aug. 31 trade that sent
Canseco to the Texas Rangers,
was the winner despite allowing
the game-tying single. The loss
was the second in nine postseason
decisions for Morris.
Joe Carter showed no ill effects
of a freak accident Tuesday night
that sent him to the hospital. He
and teammate Roberto Alomar at
tended the Toronto Maple Leafs'
National Hockey League opener,
which was highlighted by an in
door fireworks display.
Carter looked up at the wrong
time and got a burning cinder in
his left eye.

Givens also cited Morgan for
solid, consistent play.
"Sheila has been playing well
for us all season long," Givens

physically she can be pretty in
