HOUSTON (AP) — Jimmy
Johnson, Larry Izzo and Zach
Thomas all had happy homecom
ings in the Astrodome on Sunday.
Thomas returned an intercep
tion 26 yards for a touchdown
and Joe Nedney kicked a 29-yard
field goal as time expired, rallying
the Dolphins in an explosive
fourth quarter to a 23-20 victory
over the Houston Oilers.
Thomas, a rookie starter from
Texas Tech, gave the Dolphins their
first lead at 20-17 with his big theft
with 10:42 to go in the game.
That wasn’t enough.
The Oilers had some big plays of
their own left. Linebacker Barron
Wortham stripped receiver OJ. Mc
Duffie of the ball and Steve Jackson
recovered it at the Oiler 45, setting
up a 33-yard field goal by Al Del
Greco for a 20-20 tie with 3:20 re
maining in the game.
But the Dolphins would not
be denied.
Dan Marino hit McDuffie with
a 20-yard completion on third
down and 12 from the Miami 24
and two plays later connected
with tight end Troy Drayton for a
51-yard pass play to the Oilers’ 5-
yard line.
The Dolphins worked the clock
down to two seconds before Ned
ney kicked his third field goal of the
game, leaving each team at 6-5.
Marino had his second straight
big game, completing 21 of 28
passes for 237 yards. M!
caught eight for 86 yards.

Aikman poses a threat to Facie
IRVING, Texas (AP) — It’s
nothing personal against the
Green Bay Packers. Troy Aik
man just seems to have his best
games against them.
“He’s been awesome against
us,” Packers coach Mike Holm
gren said. “It’s hard to set your
defense against the run and
Emmitt Smith because Troy will
hammer you.”
Aikman has a 6-2 lifetime
record against the Packers,
completing 73 percent of his
passes for 1,939 yards and 11
touchdowns.
Last year, Aikman was 24-of-
31 for 316 yards and two touch
downs in a 34-24 regular-sea
son win, then burned Green
Bay on 21-of-33 for 255 yards
and two touchdowns in the
NFC championship 38-27 win.
He gets another shot when
the Dallas Cowboys (6-4) play
the Packers (8-2) on Monday
night.
“I have no idea why it’s worked
out this way,” Aikman said. “I just
seem to have my best games
against Green Bay. It seems like
we almost make a lot of big plays.
It’s hard to figure.”

consecutive games against Dallas

Haas,Kite win Shark Shootc
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif.
(AP) — Finishing with a spec
tacular run of nine consecutive
birdies, Tom Kite and Jay Haas
won the Shark Shootout by two
shots Sunday.
Kite and Haas teamed for
their second straight 60, this
time in a scramble format, to
wind up the three-day tourna
ment at 29-under-par 187.
Second-round leaders Craig
Stadler and Lanny Wadkins had
a closing 63 to finish tied for sec
ond with Hale Irwin and Lee
Janzen at 27-under.
“Nine straight birdies on
the back nine; that’ll win most
of them,’’ Irwin said, mar
veling at the way Kite and
Haas got on a roll.
Haas began the birdie barrage
when he rolled in an 8-footer on
No. 10. Kite sank putts of 25 and
30 feet on the next two holes,
then one or the other of the two
players hit close to the pin for
relatively easy birdies the rest of
the way.
“Jay just played fabulous,”
said Kite, who also won the
Shark Shootout in 1992 with
Davis Love III as his partner.
Haas said No. 14, where both
he and Kite drove under a tree
on the par-4, dogleg left hole
that plays to 457-yards, was the
key to their victory.
“We needed a shot out, un
der, up, over, around and hook
ing,” Haas said with a smile. “I
just kind of envisioned how the
shot would go.”
And that’s exactly how it went.
“I hit a 7-iron from 173 yards,
a big hook, and it wound up 5
feet from the pin,” Haas said.
