AL beats NL 2-1 in All-Star game
The Associated Press
CINCINNATI — Terry Steinbach, the weakest hitter on either roster, hit a home run and a sacrifice fly as the American League beat the National League 2-1 in another dominated All-Star game last night.
Steinbach's home run off Dwight Gooden, in a year when home runs are down almost 25 percent, and six-hit pitching enabled the American League to win its second game in the years but only its fourth in the last 26.
The National League still leads the series 37-21. Three of those losses came under St. Louis manager Whitey Herzog. He became the only National League manager to lose three times.
Steinbach, batting only .217 for Oakland, hit a home run in the third inning and hit a bases-loaded sacrifice fly to the warning track in the fourth against Bob Knepper. That was all for the American League, which had managed only five runs in the last four All-Star Games.
That was enough, however, as eight pitchers shut down the National League. Frank Viola set down the
only six hitters he faced for the victory and Dennis Eckersley, leading the majors with 26 saves, retired the final three batters.
A crowd of 55,837, including Vice President George Bush, saw 30 first-time All-Stars give the game a new look.
The best of them was Steinbach, who became the eighth player to hit a home run in his first All-Star at-bat and was named the game's most valuable player. He sent Goodman $1.5 million. Steinberry's outstretched glove.
Gooden, the starter and loser in the 1986 game, was nicked for three hits in three innings. Knepper, his relief, did no better as Dave Winfield hit a one-out double in the fourth. Winnery recorded a record and he tied Mickey Mantle and Joe Morgan by hitting safely in his seventh straight game.
A walk to Cal Ripken and Mark McGwire's single loaded the bases and Steinbach filed out to left field, scoring Winfield.

The National League, retired in order by Viola and Clemens, got three of its hits in the four against Kansas City's Mark Gubicza. Vince Coleman led off with a soft single to left field, promptly stole second and continued to third when Steinbach's throw bounced into center.
After Ryne Sandberg struck out for the second time, making him 1-for-12 in All-Star competition, Coleman trotted home on Gubiza's wild pitch. Gubiza's eight pitches this season are the most on either team.
Andre Dawson and Darryl Strawberry followed with infield singles, but Gubicza avoided further trouble by getting Bobby Bonilla on a fly ball and Will Clark on a grounder.
After that, the pitchers dominated. Gubicza settled down for a perfect fifth and Dave Stieb gave up Sand-
berg's single in the sixth but got Strawberry on a fly ball to end the inning and leave Sandberg at second.
Gary Carter hit a two-out single in the seventh against Texas' Jeff Russell and Cincinnati pinch-runner Chris Sabo, the only rookie in the game, stole second. Rafael Palmeiro with a hard grounder which MATTingly stopped with a dive to his right. He recovered and threw to shortstop Cal Ripken for an inning-ending force out.
The National League pitchers had little trouble after Steinbach's herios. David Cone and Kevin Gross each worked a perfect inning for the National League before Tim Lauden, who replaced Steinbach, doubled in the seventh off Mark Davis. Pittsburgh's Bob Walk relieved and retired Carney Lansford on a ground ball, stranding Laudner.
Gooden was called for a balk in the third inning, the first one called in an All-Star Game since Clemens and Charlie Hough were charged in 1986. There have been nearly twice as many balks called this season already compared to last year's record of 356.
Canadian maintains lead in French tour
The Associated Press
BESANCON, France — A trio of well-known sprinters, led by Jean-Paul von Poppel of the Netherlands, headed yesterday's 10th stage of the Tour de France cycling classic, while Canadian Steve Bauer retained the overall lead.
Bauer held onto his yellow jersey, worn by the lead rider, with a 14-second lead over France's Pascal Simon. Most of the riders finished in a pack with little effect on the overall standings.
"Other teams wanted to win the stage so they took it upon themselves to ride down the breakaways," Bauer said. "So they controlled the race and it worked out great for me and I kept the jersey."
Bauer finished the stage in 57th place, and like the rest in the pack was credited with the same time as von Poppel.
Cycling squads such as Superconform and Z-Peugeot, decided before the race to gain valuable points in the overall team race. So in breakaways,
support riders for those teams chased down the breakaway riders and gradually brought them back to the pack.
The race went to riders known for their sprinting strength with von Poppel first, followed by Italy's Guido Bontempi and Belgium's Eddy Planckaert.
Von Popel, who last week won the third stage by another sprint finish, was timed in three hours, 28 minutes, 31 seconds for the 92-mile leg from Belfort to Besancon in eastern France.
Most of the riders were conserving their strength before today's stage into Switzerland for an encounter with the Alps.
Climbers such as Luis Herrera of Colombia, Raul Alcalá of Mexico and Pedro Delgado of Spain, are expected to improve their positions.
A major climb on a mountain that ends 4,550 feet above sea level is expected to change the standings.
The tour, a clockwise race around France, ends July 24.
