THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. SATURDAY, AUGUST 21, 1987 _Giants Trim Cubs’ Lead With Victory Over Phils; Birds, Kels Tied.in A. A. (G4 Beating by Reds Cuts Chi- cago’s Margin to 2 Games; Bucs Down Cards By SID FEDER | Associated Press Sports Writer Don’t sell those Pirates short. Pie Traynor’s sleepwalkers arent somnambulating any more. The idea may finally have penetrated that you bave to keep punching to win ball games, or maybe Pie, himself, is at last getting tough with the boys. ' Whatever it is, the Bucs from Pitts- | burgh have suddenly become as hot as the weather. And, with the Cubs faltering, they're joining the Giants in making a strictly two- fisted brawl of it for the National League flag. As things stood Saturday, the | Cubs were only two games in front of the galloping Giants, while the Pirates, in fourth Place and only half-a-game_ be- pie Traynor hind St. Louis, i were some five games back of the New Yorkers. Breathing Spell Short ‘The monentary breathing spell the Cubs enjoyed after Thursday's vic- tory didn’t last nearly long enough for them, for they dropped a 6-4 de- cision to the Reds Friday night in Cincinnati. This setback, coupled with the Giants’ 21-hit, 13-6 win over the Phillies, and the Pirates’ 7-4 edge over the Cardinals, made it a horse from a different garage, as they say en Delancey street. The Pirates’ particular need at the; moment is pitching prowess. If those throwers ever return to the form they Gisplayed earlier in the season, and hook up with the hitting dynamite the Bucs are exploding all over the Place these days, the Pirates will be about the toughest nut to crack in the league. They've been coming back with the speed of a rubber check since. they began their current drive 11 days ago. In that stretch, they've taken eight decisions in 11 games, relying strict- ly on a batting bombardment that has netted 126 hits, an average of bet- ter than 11 per game. They were given their best pitch- ing in a week Friday, when Cy Blan- ton turned in a six-hitter, and fanned seven, in muffling the Cards, although a 15-hit attack on the part of his Mates didn’t do him any harm. Bartell Injures Ankle For the one day, however, the blast éet off by the galloping Giants against the faltering Phillies topped every- thing in sight. Bill Terry’s terriers turned loose their biggest offensive of the season in running up 13 runs on 21 hits, despite the breaks that side-lined Dick Bartell with an ailing ankle, Clyde Castleman because of the heat, and Dick Coffman with a spiked foot. Paul Derringer personally accounted for the arc-light decision over the Cubs by driving in five runs, thereby William Milmine of Chicago has only one arm, but with it he won the singles championship in the American Lawn Bowling Asso- ciation’s 20th annual national tournament in Chicago.
