Red Wings masseur
emerges from coma
ROYAL OAK, Mich. (AP) — Detroit
Red Wings team masseur Sergei
Mnatsakanov has regained con
sciousness, William Beaumont
Hospital officials said today.
“He has made sufficient
progress now in terms of his level of
awareness and in the consistency
of his responses,’’ hospital spokes
woman Colette Stimmell said. “Dr.
Robbins told me this morning that
we consider him conscious. ...
Sergei is wakeful most of the time.’’
Dr. James Robbins is a trauma
surgeon at Beaumont.
Stimmell said Mnatsakanov’s
return to consciousness happened
gradually over the past few days.
Red Wings defenseman Vladimir
Konstantinov continues to show
signs of emerging from a coma,
Stimmell said. Both men remain in
serious condition, she said.
Reds manager
throws pitcher out
HOUSTON (AP) — Cincinnati
Reds manager Ray Knight ordered
pitcher Mike Morgan out of the
clubhouse before Sunday’s game,
leaving Morgan’s future with the
team in doubt.
Morgan said he has lost
respect for Knight. The manager
said that Morgan, 37, is frustrated
because he knows he is near the
end of his career.
“I’m still in the process of look
ing into the situation,” Reds gener
al manager Jim Bowden said
Sunday night.
During a meeting before the
Reds’ game with the Houston
Astros, Morgan reportedly told
Knight he could no longer pitch for a
Knight-managed team. Knight called
Bowden, then told Morgan to pack
his belongings and get out.
‘Tve lost respect for that guy,”
Morgan said of Knight. “I think our
whole club has. That should be the
writing on the wall right there, I think.”
Asked whether it was the pitchers
who were most upset with Knight,
Morgan said: “Geez, pitchers, catch
ers, outfielders, go down the list.”

HOUSTON (AP) — Darryl Kile
hopes to pitch in the All-Star game
this time.
He was there representing the
Houston Astros
in 1993 but
never left the
bench. Neither
did St. Louis’
Lee Smith, who
sat beside him.
“He told me
he hadn’t gotten
in four straight
games so I did
n’t feel so bad,”
Kile said. “It
would be great if
l do get in, but
I’m not expect
ing to.”
Kile (10-3) is
having one of
his most pro
ductive seasons

no-hitter on
Sept. 8, 1993,
after earning his
first All-Star
designation.
He pitched a
no-hitter
through 8.2
innings
Saturday before Kj| e
finishing with a
two-hitter in a 2-1 victory over the
Cincinnati Reds for his final start
before Tuesday’s All-Star game.
He’ll be joined by second base-
man Craig Biggio and first base-
man Jeff Bagwell, who were voted
starters for the NL All-Stars.
The Astros have their largest All-
Star representation since 1994 when
Bagwell, Biggio, Ken Caminiti, John
Hudek and Doug Drabek attended
die game for die Astros.
“I look forward to playing
Camy (now with the San Dii
Padres) again and (Kile) wil
there, too, so hopefully he
pitch while we’re all in the gam
Biggio said.
Kile is second in the NLwiti
2.17 ERA. He leads the leagues
141.1 innings pitched and
among the leaders with 109stri
outs, two shutouts and ,215opp
nents batting average against.
Kile credits his backup for
outstanding season.
“What happens is you sli
sensing that you are getting afi
breaks with a big defensive play
timely hitting,” Kile said. “Itgii
you a platform of confidence
build on. Now, a lot ofthatishap
pening for me.”
Bagwell said Kile has best ft
pitching great all year.
“He had a great fastball,
Bagwell said. "When he has lb ^
kind of fast ball, with a curvebal
he’s very tough to hit.”
Bagwell broke out of a miai
slump on Sunday with a ft
homer performance for the 10
time in his career. He wasO-for-
going into the final game of ^
series against Cincinnati
destroyed the Reds with his
RBIs.
“Obviously, I know I haven 1 *
hern hilling the last few weekr e
Bagwell said. “When l don’t hi. :
we don’t score as many runs. Hi :::!0| |
job is to get out of my mini-proli
lem and fix it.”
He got a good start on Sundaf 16 ^
going into the All-Star break.
Bagwell is in the top 10amon| Ii y
NL leaders in 10 hitting categories,
including second with 24 homers,
78 RBIs and 52 extra base hits.
“I’m still not exactly where!
want to be,” Bagwell said. "I was
drifting forward too much

LEMONT, Ill. (AP) — In terms
of riches and acclaim, Tiger
Woods already has left Jack
Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Ben
Hogan at the first tee.
The names now being used for
comparison: Elvis and the Beatles.
That’s how big Woods has
become. And at 21 years old, his
fame can only swell.
“I thought I would achieve this
much further down the road,”
Woods said Sunday after winning
the Western Open, his sixth victo
ry in 21 events since turning pro
last August. “I thought that would
happen after I won a lot of tourna
ments and got my name up there,
but it’s been kind of different.
“I guess a lot of it has to do with
that the people are interested,
therefore the media has to cover it,
and then that keeps up the bu&
The buzz might be deafening
next week, when Woods takes liis

British Open.
He was told to

“I don’t know what it's going#
