Phillies chop Braves, capture league pennant
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — They went from worst
to first and now the Philadelphia Phillies have
beaten the best.
Tommy Greene outpitched baseball's best
pitcher and the Phillies again outplayed base
ball's best team to beat the Atlanta Braves 6-3
in Game 6 of the National League playoffs
Wednesday night and win their first pennant
since 1983.
Only the third team in major-league history
to go from last place to the pennant in one
year, the Phillies will play the defending
champion Toronto Blue Jays in the World Se
ries beginning Saturday night.
Dave Hollins, Darren Daulton and Mickey
Morandini had two-run extra-base hits off
Greg Maddux, who was 15-2 since July 7 and
embarrassed Greene and the Phillies 14-3 in
Game 2. The Braves' 104 wins are the most for
a non-pennant winner since the 1942 Dodgers.
Greene could not make it past the third in
ning of Game 2, but made sure the Braves
wouldn't make it to Game 7. Fooling the
Braves with off-speed pitches mixed with his
hard stuff, he figured out every hitter but Jeff
Blauser, who had an RBI single and a two-run
homer in the seventh when the Phillies already
led 6-1.
Maddux was the NL's best starting pitcher,
losing only twice in 18 starts and not allowing
more than two earned runs in his last 14 starts.
He wasn't the same pitcher after Morandini,
the Phillies' second batter of the game, lined a
shot off the fleshy portion of his inner right
calf only to be thrown out by the second base-
man.
Maddux sustained a deep bruise and inter
nal bleeding that required treatment between
innings.
Maddux, 6-0 after Braves' losses since the
All-Star break, walked Greene on a 3-2 pitch to
start the third and Lenny Dysktra, the only
Phillie with a hit in every game, singled to
right. And Maddux was in big trouble.
He almost got out of it, getting Morandini
— a career .359 hitter against him — and John
Kruk to pop up. But Hollins, only 5-for-28 life
time against Maddux, coaxed another walk to
load the bases.
Maddux fell behind 2-1 to Daulton, and had I
to throw a fastball to a dead-fastball hitterf
Daulton hit down the right field line foradou )
ble and Greene and Dykstra scored.
The Braves finally got to Greene in thefifth|
when he walked Lemke, who scored
Blauser's two-out single. Blauser got himagi
in the seventh with a two-run homeland!
Greene was lifted for a pinch-hitter in thebol f
tom of the inning. He allowed five hits, wa
five and struck out five, but got the bigouls]
when they counted. .
Mitch Williams, the Phillies' Wild Thing re
liever, had taken three wild rides earlier in the
series, but this ninth was smooth sailing will

"It's great to come out here
and play well with these guys,"
Alvarez said. "I was just looking
to drive a good pitch and I got
one."
Allen, a native of Duncanville,
said he was pleased with his per
formance during the four-game
series.
"It was exciting for me to win
it as a freshman/' Allen said. "1
think I hit the ball pretty well this
past week."
The first game of the series,
held on Friday, ended 9-4 in fa
vor of the Sluggers.
Saturday, junior pitcher Trey
Moore tossed a shutout for the
Bombers with the help of fellow
teammates Jason Chesson and
Brian Parker as they downed the
Sluggers 4-0.
But the Sluggers came back on
Tuesday with an 11-1 win over
the Bombers.
In the final game on Wednes
day, the Bombers took control of
the game with a 3-0 lead, but the
Sluggers fought back later on to
tie the game at seven.
The Sluggers ended the Fall
World Series as the bases were
loaded and sophomore Jim Hicks
took the first pitcli on his shoul
der which forced in the game
winning run and gave the Slug
gers a 3-1 series victory.
Lady Aggies
continued from page 9
"We rotated Amy to the left
back so the rotations would match
because 1 would rather have Kim
and Sheila playing in the front."
The personnel changes, howev
er, did not work the way Corbelli
had expected them too.
"I get frustrated real easily be
cause I see our team just not do
ing things they have done," Cor
belli said. "It seems so up and
down. It is frustrating not know-

Kisling noticed a lull in the
team's play after winning the first
game.
"We were so fired up the first
game then we come out the sec

said. "We get a little too relaxed
then by the time we figure out we

HOUSTON — Things are get
ting desperate for the Houston Oil
ers.
Suffering through a miserable 1-
4 start, the Oilers benched Pro Bowl
3 uarterback Warren Moon Wednes-
ay and elevated Cody Carlson to
start Sunday against New England.
It was Moon's first demotion in 10
seasons with the Oilers.
"My pride's a little hurt," Moon
said. "I think a lot of people, both
media and fans, finally got what
they wanted. It's a difficult day for
me, something I've never been
through before. As for what hap
pens now. I'm going to do all I can
to help this team."
Moon was benched for the six
ond time in the third quarteriiil
three games after he threw threetl
terceptions and lost a fumble dul l
ing Monday night's 35-7 losstoBulj
falo.
"I kind of expected somethin'!
might happen this week," Carlsosl
said. "We needed to change soraj
things. I don't think thisisf
whole answer."
Pardee had hinted after the t
falo game that something wasndl
ed to spark his team.
"It's a very desperate move,Ml
question about it/' said offensivtf
coordinator Kevin Gilbride, "ll
know there are so many other con
tributing factors; but right
we're just grasping for anythinl
that might turn this around."

evasive back in McElroy, the
options in running the wishbone
would be limitless.
Head coach R.C. Slocum even
said that the team has tinkered
with the idea, but said that it is
not feasible right now. He cited
the need for a speedier quarter
back and said that the three are
not strong enough blocking
backs for the scheme to work.
Slocum did say, however, not to
be surprised if the Aggies run
the wishbone on goal line and
short yardage situations.
One of these three running
backs said that he wouldn't be
against the idea, but that he
would do whatever the team
wanted him to do. He also be
lieves that A&M has a long tra
dition in the I-back formation,
arid it probably isn't realistic to
think in terms of the wishbone.
Another one of the three run
ning backs said that he thought
running the wishbone would be
exciting. But, he would like to
see all three backs in a different
set-up, with McElroy as a wide]
receiver. He also said that
current fullbacks, Detron Smithl
and Clif Groce, would notbel
very happy ahqut a wishbone f
decision.
T agree that 10 years down I
road - when all three of thesejl
running backs are in the Nation-1
al Football League - we will ask |
ourselves why we didn't run.tliej
wishbone?
But what can we do?
We do not have Jamelle
loway at quarterback nor dowel
have James Street or J.C. Watts,
two of the most prolific Opticn
quarterbacks that have evetj
lived.
The fact is, the current back-
field system has p>ut the Aggies
in the Cotton Bowl again and
again. If it's not broken, don'tjl
fix it.
Besides, the wishbone is I
fancy for a traditional "run
down their throat" typeofof-j
fense.
While not likely, the thought
of the wishbone is still very
pleasant - Hill, Thomas and
McElroy all in the backfieldat
the same time.
What a sight it would be!
