Cardinals force seventh game St. Louis whips Brewers,13-1
By United Press International
ST. LOUIS — Don Sutton and Doc Medich had trouble pitching the baseball, Robin Yount and Jim Gantner had trouble catching it, the entire Milwaukee team had trouble hitting it, and two rain days covering 159 minutes prolonged the Brewers' agony in Game 6 of the World Series.
All that had gone right for Milwaukee in building a 3-2 edge in the best-of-seven round, Cardinals went wrong last night as the Cardinals whipped the Brewers, 13-1.
The seventh and final game of the Series will be played here tonight.
Sutton, who has not won in Busch Stadium since 1976, served up home run balls to Darrell Porter and Keith Hernandez and was also charged with a balk. He allowed seven hits and seven runs in 4½ innings.
"I had good stuff but bad location," Sutton said. "I have no excuse. I threw two good ones, one eight and two twelve, down the river over the bank. They took a page out of our book (the
runs). I didn't do my job consistently enough."
Medich almost matched Sutton's numbers in the sixth inmng alone when he gave up six runs on five hits, a walk and two wild pitches.
Yount, who has hurt St. Louis during the Series with his hat, hurt his own team with his glove with two errors. The key error came in the second after Dane Iorg stroked a two-out double. Yount let a ground ball by Wille McGee go through his legs to open the door for unearned runs, lorg strikes play in 10 leads. Tom Herr followed with a double to knock in McGee.
Gantner booted ground balls by Lonnie Smith in the third inning and Porter in the sixth. The misplay on Porter's ball allowed two runs to score. Gantner has five errors in the last four games and is one short of the record for most home runs in a season in Series play — set by Dave Lopez of the Dodgers last year.
Milwaukee managed only four hits off ST. Louis rookie right-hander John Fowler.
at one point. The Brewers averted what would have been only their second shutout in 1982 with a run in the ninth inning on a wild pitch.
Milwaukee's second, third and fourth hitters — Yount, Ciec Cooper and Ted Simmons — were a combined 0-for-10 against Stuper.
"I'm not embarrassed," Simmons said. "I don't feel disillusioned. It happens; it'll happen again. But it has no effect on tomorrow (today). That seventh game will be a game all to itself."
As far as cardinals' designated hitter Dana lorg is concerned, the seventh game will be yet another chance to prove his yearning for a full-time role.
lorg spent the season as an extra outfielder for the St. Louis Cardinals. But with the National League's refusal to allow the DH, his playing time was limited.
However, with the World Series being played during an even-number year, forg is getting an opportunity to play as the year's taking full advantage of the chance.
Iorg had three hits — two doubles and a triple — and scored three runs in the Cardinals' rain-delayed _romp_ last night.
In four Series game, lorg is hitting .500 (7-of-14) with four runs scored and one RBI.
"I like the DH rule," lorg said. "It puts another hitter in there and it adds to the excitement of the game. I'm a hitter and I'm a little biased.
"I remember last year watching the World Series and watching pitchers come to the plate and having to try to hit when they haven't hit all year. It's not worth watching. I almost not my TV off, that's how exciting it was."
St. Louis manager Whitley Herzog has long been a backer of the DH and has tried unsuccessfully to pursuade the NL. St. lorg hopes Herzog will succeed.
"I'm a proponent of it," jorg said. "I know it will help guys like me. I've got to be selfish. I don't like to watch pitchers hit."
Iorg said he altered his game routine slightly as a DH because he didn't have the reflex to do it.
"I'm enjoying it so far," said forl,
"It a little different but you still have to prepare to hit. It's a little easier don't have to concentrate on defense."

Wildcats rated as favorite over Jayhawks
By TOM COOK
Associate Sports Editor
It has been a long time since the Kansas football team has faced Kansas State as the underdog. But when the Jayhawks visit Manhattan Saturday night, the Wildcats will be the favorite, coach Don Fambrough said recently.
"I don't know who decides that type of thing, but I think we are the underdog." Fambrough said. "As a whole, this will be the best Kansas State football team I've faced. It's certainly going to be a different experience."
The game, which is to be televised at 7:10 p.m. by WBT-Allanta, will feature teams with identical Big Eight records but different overall records.
The Wildcats jumped out to a 9-0 record this season by defeating Kentucky, 23-9, South Dakota, 42-3, and Wichita State, 31-7. Their last three games were against Oklahoma and Arizona State, a 7-7 tie with Missouri and a 42-13 loss to Nebraska.
Both teams are 0-1-1 in the conference. The Wildcats are 3-2-1 overall and the Rams are 4-2-1 overall.
KANSAS STATE coach Jim Dickey
said the Wildcats needed a victory over Kansas to continue upholding their fans' expectations for a winning season.
"I actually thought we'd be 4-2 right now instead of 3-1-2. Dickey said." "I'm a little disappointed, also, in the way we played against him," But overall, it's been a positive season.
"We've still got a chance to have a good season, and I anticipate we will. But it'll all get to start with boating KU. It has an important game that it normally is."
Expectations of a winning season at Kansas State stem from a rigid redshirt program used in 1981. Dickey held out 16 players, including eight returning senior starters, from last year's team in hopes that his 1982 squad would be loaded with talent, depth and experience.
The result: 26 returning starters at 22 positions and 53 lettermen on a 96-man squad, including nine three-year lettermen.
DICKY HAS had to use that depth in recent games to fill a void in the Wildcat running game caused by injuries. Mark Hundley, 6-4, 12-pound junior tailback, Masi Toluau, 6-0, 220-pound senior fullback and Pete
Brown, 6-1, 21-pound senior fullback,
have missed recent games.
Dickey said that Hundley should be ready for Saturday's game. It was still too early to make a decision on the availability of Tohaue and Brown.
Quarterback Darrell Riley Dickey, 6-2, 192-pound senior, is scheduled to start for the Wildcats. Dickey has completed three touchdowns and three interceptions.
He has shared playing time as the signal caller with Doug Bogue, 6-1, 194-pound junior. Bogue has a 53.6 percentage passing, connection on 15 of 28 passes for 248 yards. He also has thrown three touchdown passes.
WHILE THE Kansas State offense has racked up 1,824 yards of total offense, the defense has allowed 1,631 yards. But the defense has been tough-nosed when the situation calls for it. Dickey said.
Reggie Singletary, 6-2, 266-pound junior defensive tackle, has recorded 37 tackles. He has 11 stops for 42 yards in losses, tons in the Big Eight.
Linebackers Dan Ruzic, 6-2,
215-pound senior, and Will Cokley, 6-2,
215-pound senior, are the team's
leaders in defenders with 80 and 61 stops,
respectively.
Defensive end L.E. Madison, 61,
215-pound junior, and nose guard Jack
Williamson, 5-11, 235-pound senior,
strengthen the front line, Dickey said.
Williamson, who received a 1981 hardship ruling, is one of the strongest performers in the Big Eight, leading Kansas State in the weight room with a 500-pound bench press and a 332-pound power clean.
THE DEFENSIVE secondary is lead by strong safety Jim Bob Morris, 6-2, 191-pound senior. Greg Best, 5-10, 180-pound cornerback, and Gary Morris, 6-3, have recovered free safety, and have recovered four fumbles, tops in the conference.
Steve Willis, 6-2, 10-2-pound sophmore, and Scott Fulhage, 5-1, 19-4-pound junior, compose the Wildcats kicking game. Willis has booted seven of 13 of 13 on attempts. Fulhage owns a 41.2 yard punting average.
Fambrough said, "Kansas State's defense is stronger than it's been before. Their redshift program has proved to be a success this year and as a result, they have a lot of experienced people to put on the field."
