Porter wins MVP honors Cards defeat Brewers for title
By United Press International
ST. LOUIS—The St. Louis Cardinals, with birthday boy Keith Hernandez lighting the fire and pitcher Joaquin Andujar providing the smoke, won their first World Series in 15 years last night by defeating the Milwaukee Brewers, 6-3, in the decisive seventh game.
Hernandez, celebrating his 29th birthday, delivered a two-run single to highlight a three-rush sixth inning that brought the Cardinals back from a two-run defeit, and Andujar scatched nine in seven innings for his second visit. The Series as the Cardinals won the championship, four games to three.
Porter, who finished the Series with eight hits in 29 at-bats and drove in five runs, was named the Series 'Most Hits' player. He also earned a similar honor he won during the NL championship series. Porter, who delivered several clutch hits for the Cardinals throughout the Series, also called the Cardinal pitchers superbly.
George Hendrick delivered the tie-breaking hit in the sixth to give the Cardinals their fourth victory of the Series and spike Milwaukee's dream of winning its first world championship. The World Series triumph
Darrell Porter
was the first for St. Louis since the Cardinals defeated Boston in 1967.
Relief pitcher Bruce Sutter also played a key role in the triumph by blanking the hand-hitting Brewers in the second to match his second save of the Series.
Andujar, who had suffered an injury in the seventh inning of the third game when he was hit just below the right knee cap by a hard grounder off the bat of Ted Simmons, wasn't even sure he would be strong enough to pitch the seventh game, but the D.C. Clippers won by Brewers for seven innings before being removed by Manager Whitey Herzog.
Just before he was taken out of the
game, the fiery right-hander exchanged words with Brewer second baseman Jim Gantner after retiring Gantner to end the seventh inning. Andujar had to be restrained by home defense when Weyer- but no number were thrown.
Andujar never came out for the eighth.
Herzog went instead to his relief ace, Sutter, who led the major leagues in saves during the regular season.
The Cardinals' victory was highlighted by their ability to play their gambling running game to perfection on the artificial surface of Busch Memorial Stadium. St. Louis used the speed of Willie McGee, Lonnie Smith and Ozzie Smith to build the runs it hit, including a pair of doubles, and scored two runs. McGee and Ozzie Smith each scored once.
Trailing 3-1 entering the bottom of the sixth, the Cardinals pushed across three runs off starter Pete Vuckovich and losing reliever Bob McClure.
With one out, Ozzie Smith singled to left and Lonnie Smith followed with a hard ground ball that skipped past third base and down the left-field line for a double, McClure, who had saved two of the Brewers' victories in the playoffs. The next bitter the first batter to face him, pinch-hitter Genace, to load the bases.
Hernandez followed with a single to right to bring home the tying runs, Hendrick delivered a line single to right to bring home pinch-runner Mike Ramsey with the go-ahead run and the Cardinals never looked back.
St. Louis added a pair of insurance runs in the eighth inning off reliever Moose Haas.
Lonnie Smith started the inning with another double and after Ramsey struck out trying to bunt on the third strike, Hernandez was walked intentionally. Hendrick flied to center before Darrell Porter and Steve Braun followed with successive RBI singles off reliever Mike Caldwell to give the Cardinals a commanding three-run lead.
Sutter did not need any more help as he set down the last six batters in order to clinch the championship.
As soon as Sutter struck out Gorman Thomas for the final out of the game, hordes of fans raced onto the field. Police, with trained attack dogs, tried to keep the fans away from the players and, as fireworks shot up over the stadium, the Cardinals received a police escort to the dugout.
Mounted police slowly wound their way in from center field to try to protect and protect the artificial surface which be torn up by the screaming fans.
Martin released as manager of Oakland
By United Press International
OAKLAND, Calif. — Roy Eisenharden,
president of the Oakland A's,
announced yesterday he had dismissed
himself and had begun searching for a successor.
Eisenhardt said he had a long talk with Martin on Tuesday before making the move.
"One must recognize the inevitability of change as a solution for difficult circumstances." Elseinhardt told Mar-
kell McNally that party may seek or want this change."
Eisenhardt said Martin's contract, which runs through 1986 and calls for $250,000 a year, would be honored. He added Martin might return to the A's at a later date as an adviser should he so desire.
Minnesota, Detroit, Texas, the New
York Yankees twice and Oakland.
Martin, 54, who returned to his home in the Bay Area two years ago, has been fired from five clubs. He managed
HE HELPED the A's to the American League West title in the strike-shortened 1981 season. This year the A'drew more than 1.7 million fans even though the club was not a winner and finished fifth in its division
Former A's manager John McNamara and former A's star Sal Bando were believed to be the front-runners of the club. McNamara managed the club for former Charles Finley, and Bando played for him. Bando is currently an adviser to Milwaukee Brewers general manager Harry Dalton. McNamara was fired as manager.
In a statement released late in the day, Eisenhardt said he was sorry his relationship with Martin did not work out.
Eisenhardt said. "You are a valuable asset to baseball and we will always be among your greatest admirers. Hopefully, you may return to this organization in an advisory capacity when the time is ripe."
"In no way does this action reflect adversely on you or the job you did."
Martin thanked Eisenhardt, Wally Haas, club vice president and Walter Haas Jr. club owner, for "everything he did." He said that Haas is a prince of people it is Mr. Haas.
On Tuesday, Elsenhardt also met with Bill Rigney and reportedly offered him a job as an adviser. Rigney confirmed that he talked with the A's president and said he would like to work with the club. He currently serves in the same capacity with the California Angels.
Martin also was the general manager of the A's. But presumably, under new leadership, Eisenhardt and an adviser would handle most of the GM's duties, leaving the new manager to concern himself with field duties only.
A source close to Martin said he
a thought Martin would not take another
job in baseball, "at least not right now.
He would prefer to remain in the Bay Area."
EISENHARDT AND THE A's purchased a $600,000 home in a posh suburban community last year and presented it to Martin. A club spokesman said the home would remain Martin's as a gesture of the A's gratitude to him for turning the club around.
Martin's fall from grace with Eisenhardt probably began during spring training when he decided to go with veterans after the club came close. The last year, he was in the year. But the veterans proved unproductive and the club languished.
During the year, Martin sought to re-negotiate his contract. When turned down, he threw a tantrum and wrecked his ballpark office.
Kansas—K-State contest more than just a game
If you are from Kansas, it's almost time for THE game of the year.
The Jayhawks and Kansas State square off Saturday for the 80th time in a game that will be nationally televised by WTBS-Atlanta.
Kansas State comes into the game with a 3-2-1 record and a redshirt program that looks as if it is a success. Wildcat head coach Jim Dickey put all his marbles in one corner by holding out 16 players, including eight returning senior starters, in 1981, in hopes that 1982 would be a better year.
So far it has been.
Against Nebraska last week, Mark Hundley, K-Stater's tailback, was expected to play but was held out by Dickey. Hundley, however, has miraculously returned this week from a neck injury and is excused at full strength for the Jayhawks.
THE WILDCATS jumped out to a 3-0 start with victories over Kentucky, Wichita State and South Dakota. But since then, the Wildcats have been ineffective. In their past three games, they have scored only 27 points.
Other Wildcats with injuries, fullbacks Masi Tohua and Pete Brown,
also are expected back at full strength.
Did Dickey just rest these players or
wrong? Yes, its inward.

were they really injured?
I were probably a little bit of both.
Dickey, knows that the Jayhawks have been unable to stop the run so what better way to beat Kansas then use your entire backfield is ready to go?
ALSO DICKEY, although it has not been that pronounced, is in some trouble in Manhattan. He has only a board and is 6-3 against the Jayhawks.
If Dickey loses to Kansas, which he has the past three years, he may not be around to get another chance at the Jayhawks.
The Jahywsk enter this game with nothing to lose. They are a miserable 1-3-2 after six games even though they lost all three matches at or near the top of the Big Eight.
There have been a lot of reasons for this failure, some easy to explain and some not so easy.
The Jayhawks have been hurting from the poor play of the defense against the rush and the inability of the defense to scoreboard. These have been obvious.
WHAT HASN'T been so easy to detect is the lack of leadership that Kansas has had this season. Everybody expected the team to miss Kyle McNorton, Chris Toburen and Greg Smith, but their leadership on the field has been missed more than anyone could imagine.
On top of all their problems, the Jayhawks go into this week's game as banged up as a team can be. As of yesterday, guard K.C. Brown, fullback Dave Geroux and defensive end Tim Friess are definitely out for Saturday's contest. There are also several players who are still questionable for the game, but Coach Don Fambrough said all of these players had a chance of playing.
And no one is a better example of this than quarterback Frank Seurer. Seurer, who received a second-degree shoulder separation in the Oklahoma game, was expected to miss at least two games. Seurer threw the ball in practice yesterday but is still considered out for the Kansas State game.
But there is something about Seurer that makes you almost certain he will be in the lineup when the Jayhawks take the field Saturday. He has come back time and again this season when he has been hurt and performed courageously. The odds are Seurer will see some action in the contest.
Fries, KU's most consistent defensive player, is a different story though. Fries comes from Kansas and would have lost in a tie but with a victory against Kansas State.
FRIESS WANTS to play, although he would probably injure himself more if he did. However, if it were up to Tim and Joey, the best way to deal with and worry about the leg afterward.
That's the sad part of the story for the Jayhawks. If everyone on the team were like Seurer and Friess, there would be no lack of leadership or enthusiasm.
But there is, and Saturday's game looms as a big one for the Jawhays.
One thing is for certain. Come Saturday at 7:11 p.m., you can throw the records out. There is going to be a lot of it. You need teams with teams need the victory desperately.
Which ever team has the most pride in this contest usually comes out the best.
One can only hope that it will be the Hawks.
