sports o-shows unable to tarnish All-Star Game By JOHN NELSON AP Sports Writer MINNEAPOLIS Baseball's 56th annual All- Star Game also was becoming a game of no shows yesterday as managers for both leagues announced their starting lineups. The absentees for tonight's game included the starting catchers and top winning pitchers for both leagues, the most notable being Joaquin Andujar of the St. Louis Cardinals. Andujar, who leads the NL with 15 victories, refused the selection of Manager Dick Williams of San Diego after he got the impression that he would not be starting. "I'd love for Joaquin Andujar to be here," Williams said at a news conference. "Unfortu nately, he decided not to come. . . . That's past history. He declined to go. We didn't tell him he couldn't come, and at that point, I hadn't named a starting pitcher." Williams' starting pitcher will be one of his own, Padres right-hander LaMarr Hoyt, 12-4, who has won 10 in a row. Sparky Anderson of Detroit, the American League's manager, also chose one of his own pitchers to start, Tigers right-hander Jack Morris, 10-6. In addition to Andujar, Williams had to replace starting catcher Gary Carter of the New York Mets and reserve outfilder Pedro Guerrero of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Carter was replaced on the roster by Terry Kennedy of the Padres, who Williams said would start ahead of Tony Pena of Pittsburgh. Guerrero was replaced by outfielder Glenn Wilson of Philadelphia, and right-hander Ron Darling of the Mets replaced Andujar. Carter reinjured a knee in a game Saturday at Houston, and Guerrero has been suffering from back spasms. The American League no-show was starting catcher Lance Parrish of Detroit, who was re placed on the roster by Rich Gedman of Boston. Carlton Fisk of the Chicago White Sox, already chosen as a reserve, will start the game. Parrish is out with a back injury. Anderson already had lost the services of New York's Ron Guidry, who leads the AL with 12 victories. Guidry pitched Sunday and, for that reason, asked not to be selected. At the news conference, Williams said his leadoff hitter would be Tony Gwynn of San Diego, in left field, followed by Tommy Herr of St. Louis at second, Steve Garvey of San Diego at first, Dale Murphy of Atlanta in center field, Darryl Strawberry of New York in right field, Graig Nettles of San Diego at third, Kennedy catching, Ozzie Smith of St. Louis at shortstop and Hoyt. The American League lineup had Rickey Hen derson of New York leading off and playing center field, followed by Lou Whitaker of Detroit at second, George Brett of Kansas City at third, Eddie Murray of Baltimore at first, Cal Ripken Jr. of Baltimore at shortstop, Dave Winfield of New York in right field, Jim Rice of Boston in left field, Fisk catching and Morris pitching. Andujar, bitter already about not being voted the National League's Cy Young winner in 1984 when he went 20-14, now is 15-4. One of his losses came Friday night against Hoyt and San Diego, and that loss apparently was what convinced Piers A . t . . t f . A t t . k. date _ • By.

Williams also was asked why he chose to start Kennedy at catcher over Pena, considered by many the best catcher in the game.

Hoyt has a slight edge over Morris in that he knows the opposing hitters a little better. Hoyt spent five seasons in the American League with the White Sox before he was traded to the Padres last December. "I've got a pretty good idea what I need to do," Hoyt said. "I've got a good idea what these guys like to hit and where they like the ball." Morris knows only the four San Diego hitters in the starting lineup from the World Series.

Cruz finally finds national spotlight By BEN WALKER AP Sports Writer MINNEAPOLIS Finally, Jose Cruz made it back to the All-Star Game. This time, he might even get to play. His name is not as well-known as those of his National League team mates-for-a-day, guys like Garvey and Nettles and Parker. He never finishes highly in fan voting for starting All-Star spots. He rarely gets any of the national attention he deserves. And still, Jose Cruz, a month away from his 38th birthday, man ages a pleasant and easy smile when he talks about life in the outfield with the Houston Astros. "I've been hiding in the back yard," he said yesterday prior to a workout at the Hubert H. Hum phrey Metrodome. For years, Cruz and the All-Star Game have formed a paradox. in the 1941 All-Star Game.

(Red Schoendienst was thrown out try ing to steal home to end the eighth The Daily Collegian Tuesday, July 16, 1985 "To come back to Minnesota where I grew up there's a very special feeling," said Morris, a LaMarr native of St. Paul. nals, declined to play without assurance that he would be the National League's starter. Ron Guidry, 12-3 for the Yankees, pitched Sunday and said he would not be ready in time to play. Here's a guy who has hit over .300 five times in his career, has knocked in more than 900 runs and has a .287 lifetime average for 15 seasons. All this, and he's only been cho sen for the All-Star team once. That was back in 1980, and what happened was poetic justice in reverse. Of the 20 non-pitchers on the NL roster for that game, Cruz was the only one who did not play. Slowly, and long overdue, Cruz is gaining recognition for being one of the best and most consistent players in baseball. "I think maybe it's because of where I play," said Cruz, without a trace of remorse or animosity. "In Houston, we did not win too many games."

Gar L®®®®®®®®®®®®mi■®®®®■®o®mal Stars a model of consistency By DAVE GOLDBERG AP Sports Writer TEANECK, N.J. The Baltimore Stars bade farewell to three years of spring football by providing its often disorganized USFL rivals with a sim ple lesson a well-run organization still is the quickest way to success. "You read about this club and that club not getting paid. That never happened with the Stars," Coach Jim Mora said yesterday, 12 hours after his team had won its second straight league title with a 28-24 victory over the Oakland Invaders and closed out its three spring seasons with a 48-13-1 record, by far the league's best. But typically for the United States Football League, Mora had to share equal billing yesterday with Harry Usher, the league's commissioner, who is continuing to struggle with defining the size and shape of the league when it next resumes play 12 to 14 months from now in the fall of 1986. Usher only had one specific an nouncement that the USFL owners had voted to make the league a non profit Delaware corporation in order to make decision-making easier. But he acknowledged that the league's $1.32 billion antitrust suit against the National Football League is "extremely important" to the USFL's future and added that the league, four of whose 14 teams missed their final payrolls, may let some of its high-salaried players jump to the NFL in an effort to cut costs during the year-long hiatus. Those jumpers will not come from the Stars. "Stability and continuity pulled this team through when things got tough, and they did get tough this year," said Mora, who unlike most of his USFL ounterparts has had the lux ury of working with the same players in his three years as head coach." Indeed, 27 of the Stars who played in Sunday night's game also played two years ago in the first USFL title game a 24-22 loss to the Michigan Panthers, who merged with the In vaders after last season, contributing nine key players to Sunday night's losers. And there were only eight new players on this year's Stars, who won eight of their last nine games after a 5-6-1 start, although the team itself was relocated from Philadelphia and actually played its games in College Park, Md. "There's an axiom in football you're at your best when you turn over eight players a year," Carl Peterson, the team's president and personnel specialist, said last week. But if Baltimore fared well on the field, it didn't do so well off it. The prototype franchise for spring play spent far less than some of its flashier rivals, mixing a nucleus of low-and medium-salaried players with selected stars like Kelvin Bry ant, who ran for 103 yards, scored three touchdowns, and was named the game's most valuable player. But it was forced to leave Philadel phia when the USFL voted to move to the fall in 1986 because of conflicts with the NFL's Eagles and ended up commuting three hours from its prac tice base in Philadelphia to its games in College Park, Md. "I think that contributed to our problems at the beginning of the season," Mora said. "But I think mrnmisiansmum sumimmu mg I I 110% Discount I . 1 with Coupon i 1 Self -Service Copies I iii Short & Long Hun II Quick Printing I • Grove Printing I II ri, S.

Usher, meanwhile, was dealing with far more complex matters. He saw one reason for optimism in the crowd, announced at 49,263, that turned out Sunday night at 76,000-seat Giants Stadium. He saw another in the possibility that the Houston fran chise might be sold to Larry and Zachary Fisher, New York realtors who would bring them to New York's Shea Stadium. "I'm delighted that someone with a bank account the size of the Fisher brothers' is even interested," Usher said. "We all agree that the fact that discussions are even going on and I know they are serious is a good sign."
