Pro Sports winners-losers This was a terrific season for baseball fans in Sheridan. With the Minnesota Twins in the World Series many people came out of the closet to root them on. The Twins beat the St. Louis Cardinals in seven games. The Twins lost every game in St. Louis but won every home game in the victory. The Metro ( Homer”) Dome provided a tremendous advantage for the Twins and clearly bothered the St. Louis hitters with the tremendous noise inside the dome. The Minnesota fans also started a new craze called the Homer Hanky . The fans would wave the white towels and scream as the Twins consistantly hit shots over the center field wall. Superbowl XXII between Denver Broncos and the Washington Redskins was shaping up to be one of the best in recent history. Like the superbowls of the past, however, it was a rout. The first play from scrimage was a 56-yard TD pass from Bronco quarterback John El-way to Ricky Nattiel. On their next possession the Broncos kicked a field goal to extend their lead to 10 points. When Redskin quarterback, Doug Williams went down with an injury the day looked pretty bad for Washington fans. During the second quarter, however, Williams returned to lead the Skins to 35 unanswered points. The rout was on. During the second half, the Redskins never looked back, winning the game 42-10. Washington broke six Superbowl records in the game, including most total yards. Baseballs opening day, April 4th, wasn't a day for celebration for some teams. The Baltimore Orioles lost their first game and then continued to lose the next 20 games. The O for April Orioles set a new American League record for consecutive losses and a Major League record for most losses at the start of a season. Baseball had it's first suspension of the year when Pete Rose, the Cincinati Reds Manager, was suspended for thirty days after shoving an umpire. Rose ran out on the field to argue a call and the umpire accidentally poked him in the eye while pointing at him. Rose became furious and shoved the umpire twice. Rose was instantly ejected and suspended the following day. Current Events 21 !! ! 3 !!
