Page 12 University Daily Kansan, September 3, 1981 Kansas City scores in ninth to slip past Milwaukee, 5-4 By JIM SMALL Sports Writer KANSAS CITY. Mo.-When Dick Howser took over as manager of the Kansas City Royals Monday, he wowed to utilize aggressive base running. But the Royals did a lot more walking than running last night as Milwaukee Brewers' starter Randy Lerch issued five walks in five innings, allowing the Royals to take a 5-4 victory before a Royals Stadium crowd of 19,568. THE VICTORY moved the Royals, 12-11 in the second season, into first place, as Oakland dropped a double-bender yesterday at Cleveland. Although Lerch's walks accounted for four Royals runs, it was a mental mistake by Brewers second baseman Jim Gunther that gave Kansas City the win. With two outs, bases loaded and the score tied at four in the bottom of the ninth, George Brett bounced a Rolle Fingers fastball to third. When Ed Romero turned to throw to second for the force, no one was there. "I just didn't get to the bag in time," Gantner said. Gantner's miscue allowed Darryl Motley to score the winning run. "It was a routine force-out at first," Brewers manager Buck Rogers said. "But he just got a late break to the bag." MILUAWKEE SCORED first off Royalts starter Atlee Hammaker when Don Money and Mark Brouhard each singled to open the second inning. Robin Yount's sacrifice bunt advanced the runners to first and third with one out. Sal Bando then grounded to U.L. Washington, whose only play was to force Brouhard at third base, allowing the run to score. Kansas City tied the game in the third when Motley walked and advanced to second when third baseman Money overthrew Gantner on Willie Wilson's ground ball to third. Brett then singled to right, scoring Motley. Milwaukee scored again in the fourth when Cecil Cooper led off the inning with a double to right and advanced to third on Money's ground ball to first. Brouhard then singled to right, scoring Cooper. field line. The Brewers then walked across to creating the stage for Brett's ground ball. The victory was the Royals second place followed Jim Frey as Kansas City managemen The big inning for the Royals came in "We're battling and that's what I like," However said. "We're still struggling at the plate, but we're battling." The Royals open a four-game series with the New York Yankees tonight at 10 p.m. on Tuesday, June 2, 1-4, start for the Royals and John, 7-4, is slated for the Yankees. "We're battling and that's what I like. We're still struggling at the plate, but we're battling." Dick Howser the fifth when Lerch walked both Motley and Washington on eight straight pitches. Wilson advanced the runners to second and third with a sacrifice bunt. Frank White then deposited a Lerch fastball over the left field fence for his seventh home run of the season. "WHITE'S JUST swinging good," Howser said. "He's really driving the ball. Everybody talks about his defense but he can do things with a bat." Milwaukee tied the game in the ninth when Yount and Ben Olgivie reached base on back-to-back singles and Yount scored on Ted Simmons' double to left.
