Gardner noeLhits Dodgers
for nine innings, but loses.
By The Associated Press
Mark Gardner doesn't have
much on his career record sheet
yet, but he does have an asterisk
forevermore after pitching nine
no -hit innings against Los
Angeles.
When Gardner's name goes into
The Sporting News official record
book, there will be a notation
reading that the Montreal right-
hander pitched nine hitless innings
before Lenny Harris singled lead-
ing off the Los Angeles' loth.
After Harris' infield hit, Eddie
Murray sent him to third with a
single and Darryl Strawberry
followed with a single off reliever
Jeff Fassero to give the Dodgers a
1-0 victory.
"It didn't come out the way
most people would like it, as a
win," Gardner said. "It was one
of those nights where everything
was working. Those kind of games
don't come around often. I didn't
feel I had good stuff to begin
with."
But Gardner (5-7) did have
good -enough stuff to go in the,
record books with guys like
Harvey Haddix, Jim Maloney and
Bobo Newsom.
In 1965, Maloney was left with
a 0-0 tie after pitching nine no -hit
innings for Cincinnati. He lost 1-0
in 11 innings to New York on June
14 on Johnny Lewis' homer, and
beat Houston 1-0 in 10 innings on
Aug. 19.
In one of the most famous
games in baseball history, Haddix
pitched 12 perfect innings for
Pittsburgh against Milwaukee on
May 26, 1959 — only to lose in
the 13th on an error, a walk and
Joe Adcock's double.
"The no-hitter was really of no
consequence," said Gardner, 7-9
as a rookie last season. "It didn't
matter to me. I wanted to win the
game, even if they went into the
pen at the end."
Gardner is the first visiting
player to pitch nine no -hit innings
against the Dodgers since Johnny
Vander Meer beat Brooklyn at
Ebbets Field on June 15, 1938, for
his second straight gem. Los
Angeles pitchers have thrown five
no-hitters at Dodger Stadium,
including three by Sandy Koufax.
"That's going to be a tough
game for him to lose," Dodgers
center fielder Brett Butler said of
Gardner. "He's going to think
about that for a long time. I feel
sorry for him, but not that sorry.
He had to go out there. There isn't
a pitcher in baseball who wouldn't
have gone out there in the loth. He
wanted it so badly."
The Dodgers won their fourth
straight game as Orel Hershiser,
Kevin Gross and Jay Howell (4-2)
combined to two -hit Montreal.
Gardner, 29, pitched nine in-
nings for the first time in 15 starts
since being activated from injury
rehab on May 14. After a two -out
walk to Murray in the fast inning,
Gardner retired 19 batters in a row
before walking Kal Daniels lead-
ing off the eighth.
Ironically; it was Dr. Frank
Jobe, the I)odgers' team physi-
cian, who etuned a huge assist for
this pitching duel. Jobe performed
surgery last Nov. 16 on Gardner's
right arm, less than eight months
after operating on Hershiser's
pitching arm.
Hershiser, who hadn't gone
more than seven innings since
returning to the Dodger rotation on
May 29, struck out two before
Stan Javier batted for him in the
bottom of the sixth.
"I'm going to be mad at Dr.
Jobe if he doesn't put an outing
like that in my shoulder,"
Hershiser said. "I appreciated
what he was doing after I was
taken out of the game, but I wasn't
rooting for him."
Padres 8, Mitts 2
New York fell further behind
first -place Pittsburgh as Bruce
Hurst allowed four hits and struck
out 10, a season -high, in eight
innings and Damn Jackson hit a
two -run homer at Jack Murphy
Stadium.
Hurst (145) has won his last
five decisions against the Mets and
is 5-1 lifetifne against New York
Hurst won for the fifth time in his
last six decisions. Craig Lefferts
pitched the ninth, allowing one hit.
Sid Fernandez, making his sec-
ond start, took the loss, allowing
five tuns in six innings.
Giants 3, Phillies 2
San Francisco won its sixth
A's down Orioles 121l
after blowing big lead
By The Associated Press Friday AL roundup
The Oakland Athletics don't
any have trouble scoring rims.
Holding leads is another matter.
For the second straight game,
the A's blew a big lead in the late
innings. This time, though, they
managed to pull out a 12-9 victory
over the Baltimore Orioles on
Friday night.
"Last night was a tough loss,"
said Oakland manager Tony La
Russo, remembering an 8-7 loss to
Cleveland on Thursday. "I was
anxious to see how we'd get back
today, if you lose two like that, it's
multiplication time. This is a great
win."
The night before, the A's were
winning 7-4 when they gave up
four runs to Cleveland in the
eighth. On Friday night, they blew
a 9-3 lead to the Orioles in the
seventh before coming back to win
in the ninth at Memorial Stadium.
After blowing their six -run lead,
the Athletics got the tie -breaking
run in the ninth inning on Mark
McGwire's grounder. The last of
Terry Steinbach's four hits helped
set up the winning ran. After
Harold Baines drew a one -out
walk, Steinbach singled pinch-
marter Scott Hemond to third.
Gregg Olson replaced Mark
Williamson (3.4) and forced
McGwire to hit a grounder to the
mound. But Olson threw wildly to
second, allowing Hemond to
score, and Mike Gallego followed
with a two -run single.
Blue Jays 6, Royals 5
Third baseman Kevin Seitzer's
error with the bases loaded in the
Ilth helped Toronto to a victory
over Kansas City in front of
50,326, the largest home crowd in
the Blue Jays' history.
Devon White started the inning
with a single, his third hit o8-
game. Roberto Alomar
and loser Tom Gordon -
walked Joe Carter intentionally
and John Olerud unintentionally to
load the bases for Kelly Gruber.
Seitzer, a late -inning replace-
ment at third, couldn't handle
Gruber's hard grounder as White
crossed with the winning run.
Duane Ward (3-3) allowed two
hits and struck out six over three
innings of relief.
Tigers 3, Rangers 2
Scott Livingstone, playing in his
fast pro game in his home town,
singled home the winning run in
the loth off Jeff Russell to led
Detroit over the error -plagued
Rangers at Arlington Stadium.
Tony Phillips led off the loth
with a sinking liner to center that
Gary Pettis dropped for a two -base
error. On the second pitch to
Livingstone, catcher Ivan
Rodriguez fired a pickoff throw
but the ball went into center field
before shortstop Mario Diaz could
get to the bag. Phillips advanced to
third on Rodriguez's second error
Of the game to set up Liv-
ingstone's game -winner.
Mariners 7, Indians 4
Alonzo Powell hit a two -tun
homer in the second inning and
Seattle scored four runs on five
straight hits in the third as the
Mariners won in Cleveland.
Rich DeLucia (9-6) got the win
despite allowing four runs and five
hits in five innings. Bill Swift
pitched three scoreless innings and
Mike Schooler pitched a hitless
ninth for his first save after
missing the fast half of the season
with a strained right tricep.
Twins 6, Brewers 3
Dan Gladden's three -run double
in the eighth inning lifted Min-
nesota over visiting Milwaukee.
The Twins built their winning
tally with a leadoff single by Mike
Pagliarulo, a sacrifice and a
throwing error by reliever Darren
Holmes and another sacrifice by
AI Newman, who was safe at fast
to load the bases.
Gladden then followed with the
double to make a winner of starter
Kevin Tapani (7-7). Minnesota
also had a third sacrifice in the

Mark Langston gained his 14th
victory with the help of Wally
Joyner's two -run homer and RBI
single as California won at Yankee
Stadium.
Langston (14-4), who tied
Minnesota's Scott Erickson for
most wins in the AL, gave up
seven hits; including Hensley
Meulens' h"mer in the seventh,
before needing last -out relief help
from Bryan Harvey, who earned
his 24th savo.

runs with a homer and a double as
the Pittsburgh beat slumping
Houston at the Astrodome.
Houston has dropped six straight
games to equal its longest losing
streak of the season, and 11 of its

Pitching key
for Hawks in
win over A's
MEDFORD, Ore. — Eric
Martinez and Julian Heredia
combined on an eight -hitter
and eight of the Boise Hawks'
nine starters got at least one
hit as the Hawks defeated the
Southern Oregon A's 6-1 in a
Northwest League Southern
Division game Friday tight at
Miles Field.
Martinez, 2-1, allowed only
four hits and one walk over
the first five innings before
leaving the contest in the sixth
with a 1-0 lead. Heredia
pitched the final four frames,
allowing four hits and one
earned run to pick up his
second save of the season.
The Hawks broke a score-
less tie with a run in the top of
the third inning on Jim Sears'
single, then stretched their
lead to 2-0 in the sixth on an
RBI-groundout by Luis
Raven.
After Southern Oregon cut
the deficit in half in the
bottom of the seventh, Boise
erupted for three runs in the
eighth for a 5-1 lead. Raven
doubled in one run, Ty Boykin
plated another with a sacrifice
fly and the third tally crossed
the plate during a rundown.
Boykin's sacrifice fly in the
ninth accounted for the
Hawks' final run. Orlando
Palmeim had three of the
Hawks' 12 hits, with Chris
Turner and James Ruocchio
getting two each. Gary Hagy,
who walked and was caught in
the rundown that allowed
Raven to score in the eighth,
was the only Boise starter
without a hit.
Joe Misa, a former standout
at Lewis -Clark State, was the
loser as he gave up nine hits
and two runs in seven innings.

Idaho Press -Tribune, Sunday, July 28,1991 — 7B
For some of the best shows, it's an uphill battle for viewers
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A
former network executive once
said of a wonderfully funny but
failing comedy series, "The trou-
ble with that show is you have to
watch it."
That show was Police Squad,
which disappeared from the ABC
schedule in 1982 faster than
Detective Frank Drebin could turn
an investigation into chaos.
Police Squad found its audience
elsewhere. The latest big -screen
version, The Naked Gun 2Y2 The
Smell of Fear, recently opened in
first place in box-office revenues.
In addition, CBS has brought
Police Squad back for a brief
summer run.
But scores of other quality
comedies and dramas that required
careful viewer attention have suf-
fered equally swift cancellations,

When McDonald's recently
began marketing a new, low -fat
hamburger, called McLean (or
McFake, by critics), the company
was responding to a developing
public awareness that we Ameri-
cans eat far too much fat in our
diets. Aside from contributing to
obesity, dietary fat is associated
with high blood cholesterol and
heart attacks. In addition, high -fat
diets increase the risk of breast,
colorectal, uterine and prostate
cancers. The average American
derives about 37 percent of his or
her calories from fat; experts call
for a reduction to less than 30
percent.
Traditional fast foods, which
typically contain fried components
and greasy meat, contain up to 50
percent of calories as fat; hence
McDonald's novel emphasis on a
fascimile that has less than half the
fat of the standard four -ounce beef
patty.
As most of us have learned, fats
add appealing aroma, flavor and
texture (such as juiciness) to food.
Low -fat diets are less satisfying;
they reduce eating enjoyment and
are difficult to sustain for long
periods. Therefore, to maintain the
palatability of processed food,
nutritionists have had to experi-
ment with fat substitutes. These
substitutes, which will inevitably
play an increasingly major role in
the food industry, consist of three

yourself from possible frustration today,
avoid aligning yourself with someone
who doesn't appreciate the value of
teamwork.
LIBRA (Sept 23.0®L 23) You may look
for every excuse conceivable to avoid
work that needs immediate attention
today. What you don't attend to now
will make tomorrow's tasks twice as
heavy.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) At a

It is a sad fact of television that
it's an uphill struggle for the best
shows. Innovative comedies that
veer off the well-worn sitcom path
frequently get lost. Provocative
dramas that ignore familiar — and
thus "safe" — themes appear
doomed.
For every quality series such as
All in the Family, Mary Tyler
Moore Show, Defenders and St.
Elsewhere, there are other poten-
tial classics that died young. To
say nothing of scores of other
series that were as good, and
frequently better, than successful
shows that stayed on the air.
Television's graveyard is filled
with fabulous failures, many of
which were provocative, intrigu-
ing, enlightening, informative or
basic categories.
• Starches and gums. These
naturally occurring, complex
carbohydrates provide a smooth,
creamy texture to salad dressings,
frozen desserts, cheese, yogurt,
margarine and mayonnaise. How-
ever, large amounts of these
compounds interfere with the taste
of food, and they do not withstand
heating and cooking.
• Olestra. This is the name of a
class of substances made by
cornbining oils from soy beans and
cottonseeds with sucrose (com-
mon table sugar); the mixture is
turned into fatty acids similar to
triglycerides, natural oils. Olestra
is used in place of saturated fats
and is completely harmless, as
well as being non -caloric because
it is not absorbed from the
intestinal tract.
Processed hydrated proteins.
When milk and/or egg white
protein is micro-particulated by
heating, it forms a blend of tiny,
round particles. These micro-
palticles provide a creamy texture
to processed food and are sub-
stituted for fats in salad dressings,
margarine, mayonnaise, some
dairy products and frozen desserts
(such as Simple Pleasures, which
resembles ice cream). Being a
protein, this substitute has nutri-
tional value, but it gels and loses
its smoothness when cooked.
McDonald's makes its McLean
Deluxe from low -fat (8 percent)

This past season saw the can-
cellation of two worthy dramas,
ABC's thirtysomething and China
Beach. Another ABC show, Twin
Peaks, showed early promise, but
self-destructed. Two exceptionally
funny. CBS comedies, Lenny and
Doctor, Doctor, were dropped,
although CBS says it is bringing
back the latter at a future date.
Few have had the crossover

distract the consumer. This low -fat
product is so skillfully synthesized
that the grill master, let alone the
consumer, cannot tell the dif-

The new fat substitutes are
extremely versatile. They promise
to make many edibles more avail-
able and varied, leading to obvious
health benefits. They may even-
tually become a cornerstone for
the treatment of obesity.
According to a front-page ar i-
cle in the April 21 New York
Times, technologists dream of a
vast market in which processed
food will be tailored to achieve a
desired effect and meet personal
needs. For example, a single
product, such as a breakfast cereal,
could be modified so that one type
would be appropriate for people
with a genetic predisposition to
cancer, another for people at risk
for heart disease.
Also, many vegetable constitu-
ents appear to have cancer -
fighting properties. Called
phyto-chemicals, these additives
might one day be used to fortify
foods, much as vitamins and
minerals are used today.
Some experts already see the
McLean as a precursor to simu-
lated fish fillets and french fries,
presaging the _development of
customized mass production.
I'm not sore I'm ready to
stomach all these technological
advances; perhaps I'll simply stick
to the supermarket produce de-
partment and leave the complex-
ities of modem nutrition to the
convenience -food chains.

businesses that prepares for fail-
ure. The majority of new shows
are canceled. It's a business of
instant success, and instant failure.
A new show that falters in the
ratings rarely stays around long
enough to find an mrdience. ---
Furthermore, not everyone
mourns for these shows,. Quality
— like beauty — is in the eye of
the beholder. Obviously, there are
millions of people who prefered
Laverne and Shirley to The Paper
Chase. Or The Beverly Hillbillies
to My World and Welcome To IL
Some shows, as the ABC execu-
tive noted, simply demand too
much from their audience. The
humor may be too unfamiliar or
too provocative. It took the au-
dience a long time to respond to
All in the Family. It didn't become
a success until summer reruns.
People seeking escape and relax-
ation may not find enjoyment in a
story about law students struggling
through difficult legal cases to
satisfy an ill-tempered professor,
as in The Paper Chase.
The thing that drives both
producers and network executives
to distraction, the thing that costs
so much money and causes so
much disappointment, is that it's
impossible to tell beforehand
which show will succeed and
which will fail. And afterward, the
network's analysis of the failure is
usually no better than a guess.
When The Paper Chase made its
debut on CBS in September 1978
it was universally praised by
critics. It was based on the movie,
which in turn was based on the
novel by John Jay Osborn Jr. John
Houseman reprised his Academy
Award -winning role as Professor
Charles W. Kingsfield Jr., James
T. Hart, played by James
Stephens, was the innocent lamb
being brought to slaughter as the
first -year law student.
