The Phillies' first baseman John Kruk (29) is congratulated after scoring the winning run in Philadelphia's
5-4 victory over the Atlanta Braves in the first game of the National League Championship Series..
Dykstra's homer provides deja vu, drives
Phillies over Braves in game five of NLCS
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — Exactly seven years to the day, Len
Dykstra did it again.
After Mitch Williams and Kim Batiste helped
Philadelphia blow a 3-0 lead in the ninth inning,
Dykstra hit a lOth-inning homer Monday that gave
the Phillies a 4-3 victory over the Atlanta Braves and
a 3-2 lead in the NL playoffs.
Dykstra, whose ninth-inning homer gave the New
York Mets a dramatic 6-5 playoff victory over the
Houston Astros on Oct. 11, 1986, saved the day after
the Phillies defense unraveled in the ninth inning.
Earlier, it was the defense of left fielder Pete In-
caviglia and right fielder Wes Chamberlain that kept
the Braves from scoring. After Curt Schilling walked
Jeff Blauser to open the ninth. Batiste failed to come
up with Ron Gant's grounder to third, setting up an
other dramatic Braves' comeback.
So, despite being outscored 30-16 in the series, the
Phillies moved within a game of their first World Se
ries since 1983.
Atlanta, seeking to become the first NL team to
win three straight pennants since the St. Louis Cardi
nals from 1942-44, must win two in a row on the
road, just like it did two years ago at Pittsburgh.
For a few moments, the ninth seemed like the sev
enth game of last year's playoffs when the Braves
overcame a 2-0 deficit against the Pirates and won
the pennant on Francisco Cabrera's two-run single.
It also was reminiscent of Batiste's error in the
ninth inning of Game 1, which allowed the Braves to
tie the game before the Phils won in the 10th.
With runners on first and second following
Batiste's error on Monday, Williams relieved
Schilling. And just like in Games 1 and 4, it was an
adventure.
Fred McGriff singled on the first pitch to make it
3-1, and David Justice's sacrifice fly to left pulled the
Braves within a run.
Terry Pendleton lined a single to center, moving
McGriff to second, and Cabrera bounced a two-hop
per just past shortstop Kevin Stocker for the tying
run.
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y.- The
Buffalo Bills picked up against the
Houston Oilers on Monday ni|
where they left off last January.
Except that this time, they
didn't have to fall behind by32
points before winning.
Jim Kelly threw for three
touchdowns and Thurman
Thomas rushed for 90 yards in the
first half alone, as the Bills beat the
Oilers 35-7 Monday night in a re
play of their memorable playoff
game 10 months ago. That's when
the Bills forged the biggest come
back in NFL history, erasing a 32
point deficit to win 41-38.
This time, the Bills used a 21
point second quarter to break a 7
7 tie and Houston turned the
over seven times, continuing the
horrific slide that started in
game on Jan. 3.
The Oilers lost their third
straight game and stand 1-4.
The Bills are now 4-1 and tied
with Miami for first in the AFC
East.
Houston, which had a week off
to try to end its slide, continued
instead to fall apart, and this game
was no help to coach Jack
Pardee's shaky job security.
The second half was a comedy
of errors, highlighted by a 35-yard
scramble by Moon, the longest
run of his 15-year career in the
NFL and Canada. Two plays later
Marvcus Patton deflected a pass
and Darryl Talley intercepted to
end that threat. Moon now has 11
passes intercepted in five games.
With 4:13 left in the third quar
ter, Moon was benched for the
second time this year after com
pleting 16 of 25 passes for 177
yards with one touchdown and
three interceptions.
But the comedy continued with
Cody Carlson at quarterback, in
cluding a deflected pass that was
caught for 13 yards by right guard
Erik Norgard.
Carlson had two passes picked
off, giving the Bills five intercep
tions for the night, as Buffalo
coasted after the first half.

an older Tar Heels team. The
NBA believed in big men that
could dominate the inside and a
6-foot-6-inch shooting guard like
Jordan just didn't fit the bill.
Jordan's numbers were very
respectable coming out of col
lege, but not outstanding. In
three years of college play, he
compiled a 17.7 points-per-game
average and a .540 field goal per
centage. Of course, someone lat
er noted that the only man able
to hold Michael Jordan under 25
points per game was his college
coach. Dean Smith.
Even Bobby Knight, Jordan's
coach on the 1984 gold medal
Olympic basketball team, was
unable to see the potential he had
under his wing. Knight, too, was
more intrigued by the young
Perkins than by the lithe shooting
guard. At that time, scouts con
sidered Jordan's Olympic team
mate, Oklahoma guard Wayman
Tisdale to be a better pro
prospect at the shooting guard
position.
And Jordan fell (wn the back
burner in the 1984 NBA draft to
big men, whom conventional
thought said would make a foun
dation to build a team around.
Despite being named first
team All-American and College
Player of the Year two years run
ning, Jordan was drafted third
overall, behind centers Hakeem
Olajuwon and Sam Bowie. No
one doubted Jordan's ability to
contribute on an NBA team, they
just failed to recognize his poten
tial to dominate .
In his first year with the
Chicago Bulls, Jordan doled out
28.2 points and shot 51.5 percent
from the field. He raised his av
erage to 29.3 points per game in
four post-season contests and se
cured the Rookie of the Year
award. He had just served notice
that there was something hap
pening in Chicago. Jordan's ath
leticism that was so stifled in
Dean Smith's by-the-book style
basketball had exploded in the
NBA.
The Bull's young star had his
second season cut short by a knee
injury, yet he returned in time to
put up a gaudy 43.7-point aver
age in three playoff games. It re
minded the league that Chicago
might have gotten the better end
of the draft's fortunes. Jordan's
third year proved that point be
yond a doul)t.
An incredible 37.1-point aver
age and moves that made high
light films nightly made it obvi
ous that this phenomenon was
not a passing thing; rather, his
ability was consistent and his
level of performance was on the
same plane as the NBA's greatest
veterans. It was apparent that
the young Jordan could bury
anyone that tried to stop him.
Jordan was a competitor in the
truest sense of the word. Over
the course of nine professional
seasons, it was obvious that only
one thing drove the Bull's star -
winning. Despite the personal
numbers, record performances
and numerous NBA awards, it
was the desire to win champi
onships that drove him.
Who could forget the pictures
of Jordan in the locker room after
the Bull's first NBA champi
onship? The nation watched the
tears roll down his checks as he
held the trophy that eluded him
for six years. That seemed to tell
the whole story.
But the spotlight of stardom
took its toll. The media has
hounded the man for years, look
ing for news of the living legend.
Everything that Jordan did was
analyzed in order to find some
thing to spread over the front
page. He hinted that this, along
with loasketball's wear on his
lx>dy, made him decide to retire.
The tragic death of his father
James Jordan only clinched the
decision the 30-year-old felt he
had to make.
I'll never write another col
umn about Michael Jordan again.
I have sung his praises and told
the tale. The only thing T await is
the tears when they draw #23
into the rafters, exalting a symbol
of greatness to be remembered as
it was cherished in real life.
Thanks for the show, Mr. Jordan.
