Royals induct player, coach
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Willie Wilson, the best lead-off hitter in Kansas City Royals history, joined former manager Whitey Herzog yesterday as the newest inductees in the Royals Hall of Fame.
Both were named on at least 75 percent of ballots by a panel of media representatives, former players and team officials.
Many had thought Herzog, the Royals' manager from 1975 through 1979. should have been named to the hall many years earlier. But some bitterness remained long after Herzog was fired after the 1979 season despite winning three straight American League West titles beginning in 1976.
"I kinda knew the circumstances, which I'd rather not go into," said Herzog, who later managed the St. Louis Cardinals to a World Series championship.
"The writers had told me last summer, 'We're going to see what we can do to get you into the Royals Hall of Fame.'
very, very happy about it."
Herrzog became manager the same year Wilson came up from the minor leagues and was a key part of his development into one of the finest switch hitters and base-stalers in the league.
"Going in with Whitey is a great honor because he was my first manager," said Wilson, a switch-hitting outfielder.
"He gave me some tough times. But I think through his tough times I learned a lot about baseball. I learned to play the game hard and not take too many days off. It was fun."
Wilson's 19-year career ended in 1994 with a .285 average. He hit better than .300 four consecutive seasons from 1979-82 and stole more than 10 bases in 11 consecutive campaigns. In 1979, he led the league with a Royals-record 83 stolen bases.
He won the AL batting title with a .332 average in 1982 and led the league in trinles five times.
In 1980, Wilson became the second player to get 100 hits from each side of the plate and had a league-high 230 hits. But that was
also the year he suffered through what he said was his worst moment when he struck out 12 times in the 1980 World Series, which the Philadelphia Phillies won in six games.
"I didn't really appreciate that. I didn't like that," Wilson said. "But once you think about it, there were only two teams that were playing, and one team had to win and one team had to lose."
Wilson said the good moment was in 1985 when the Royals came back from three games down to defeat St. Louis in the World Series.
"To be able to do that — it was such an honor, such a pleasure and such a great feat for us," he said. "Those two times really stick out."
Wilson said he would like to work for the Royals in some capacity.
"I would be willing to start any where," he said. "I love Kansas City. It would be fun."
Royals general manager Herk Robinson said no other player ever gave the Royals what Wilson could give them.
Kansas City casino among defendants accused of negligence
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The mother of a boxer who died during a 12-round super-middleweight bout sued a casino yesterday, claiming that it contributed to her son's death.
The Associated Press
Mother of fallen boxer files suit
The suit filed by Barbara Carver in Jackson County Circuit Court names Harrah's North Kansas City Casino, promoter America Presents, referee Ross Strada, ringside physician Michael Poppa and trainer-manager George Smith. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages.
"The lawsuit alleges that each one of these defendants contributed to the death of Randy Carver," said Tim Dollar, one of the family's lawyers. "To what degree each one contributed will be a matter for the jury."
Carver, 24, died Sept. 14, two days after being knocked down in a North American Boxing Federation bout by Kabary Salem of New York.
Carver fell to the canvas in the 10th round after taking an overhand right and a straight left from Salem. He tried on four occasions to get up but couldn't get to his knees.
Carver lost consciousness after Strada ruled a knockout.
Among the allegations, the lawsuit says that Strada failed to stop the fight to protect Carver from frequent and repeated head butts. It also accused Strada of falling to summon the ringside doctor in a timely manner.
"We believe that regulations that are enacted to prevent injuries such as these were violated, and the lawsuit alleges this fight should have been stopped," Dollar said.
Strada ruled the head butts were accidental.
According to NABF rules, a fighter can lose points for

intentional head-butting. But he must be warned at least twice before he can be disqualified. Salem was not warned.
Poppa and Smith were accused in the lawsuit of failing to stop the fight and for providing inadequate medical attention to Carver.
The lawsuit also says that as promoters of the fight, Harrah's and America Presents are vicariously liable for the negligence of defendant Strada and defendant Poppa.
A representative for Harrah's North Kansas City Casino said the company had no comment.
Carver, 21-1-1, was the NABF super-middleweight champion.
