LAS VEGAS (AP) — Sugar
Ray Leonard and Thomas
Hearns, a pair of flashy welter-
weights with unlimited futures
when they first fought, meet
again in a lucrative rematch
that almost certainly will end at
least one career.
Seven years and nine months
after Leonard stopped Hearns
in the 14th round of a classic
battle for the undisputed wel-
terweight title, the two aging
fighters return to the ring at
Caesars Palace for a scheduled
12-round fight for Leonard's
World Boxing Council
168-pound title.
For Leonard, 33, the fight is a
chance to add another $13 mil-
lion to his already bloated bank
account while seeing how much
of his once remarkable skill he
retains.
For Hearns, it’s his last
chance for vindication, and
perhaps his last hurrah as a
fighter.
“Thomas has to win this
fight,” said Emanuel Steward,

as boxing goes, pure and

Ozzie Smith had the first five-
hit game of his career and the
Cardinals rallied for eight runs
in the seventh to win their fifth
straight.
St. Louis had 10 hits in the
inning off four Cubs pitchers.
Mets 6, Pirates 1

Montreal beatPhiladelphia7-2.
Will Clark hit a two out, two-
run homer off Mark Davis in the
12th inning, sending San Diego
to its sixth straight loss and
ninth in 10 games.
Now that the Houston Astros
have shown they can do it at
home, they’ll try to keep win-
ning on the road.
“We have to continue to score
early and give our pitchers
something to work with. If we
can continue to do that, we’ll be
all right,’’ Astros manager Art
Howe said Sunday after Hous-
ton rode a seven run second
inning to a 10-6 victory over the
Atlanta Braves.
Houston has won six straight
and 16 of 17.
“The thing that sticks out in
my mind about this streak is
that we never quit,” said Bill
Doran, who hit his second
career grand slam in the sec
ond. ‘‘We had no business win-
ning some of these games, so we
kept battling. It has been excit-
ing and interesting. There’s no
way you can anticipate games
going like these have."
Jim Deshaies, 7 3, won for the
sixth time in seven decisions,
allowing four runs and seven
hits in five innings. Danny Dar
win, the fifth Astros pitcher, got
the final two outs for his second
save.

“I’ve got to do what I’ve got to
do,” Hearns said through a
spokesman. “A lot of people
worked to make this fight
happen."
Leonard, a 7-5 favorite when
the two first met Sept. 16, 1981,
enters the ring a 3-1 favorite
this time. The fight, which will
be televised on pay-per-view
and closed circuit, is scheduled
to begin about 7:45 p.m. PDT.
Leonard, who has fought only
37 rounds sn four fights since
the first Hearns bout, is coming
off a less than spectacular
ninth round knockout of Donny
Lalonde, who knocked Leonard
down in the fourth round with a
right hand.
6th win in a row
gives Astros first
simple.”
The fight comes two days
after a woman was shot to death
in Hearns' home in a Detroit
suburb, a slaying Hearns
insisted won't affect his perfor-
mance in the ring.
Mike Davis had a two run
single in the third, bnding a
streak of 23 consecutive score
less innings for Los Angeles
and giving him his second hit in
32 at bats.
Rookie Scott Scudder, 0-1,
allowed four hits and walked
six in four innings in his second
major league start.

to become the third team to win
three consecutive NBA titles.
To do that, they must become
the first to survive a 3-0 playoff
deficit.

backcourt for the third straight
game, beat the Lakers 114 110

first championship with a vic-

The Pistons guards are hot
The Lakers' guards are hurt.
The Pistons, who blew a gol-
den opportunity to beat the
Lakers m last year $ Finals, are
serious and determined not to
let an even better one slip aw*y.
“We prepared ourselves to
run the full race and not to
enjoy the accomplishments of
three quarters of the race."
Detroit guard Isiah Thomas
said
We are going to come out for
it as if it were Game 7 instead of
Game 4.'' Pistons guard Vinnie
Johnson said
Los .Angeles, which didn't
lose a game m its first three
playoff senes, may not wm one

There have been four 4-0

injunes to James Worthy. Bob
McAdoo and Norm Nixon, lost
to Philadelphia.

Pat Riley said. ‘We’ll find out

The performances of Tho-
mas. Johnson and Joe Dumars
peaked in the second half Sun
day. when they combined for 46
of Detroit's 57 points and hand-
led the Lakers' trapping
defense very well.
None made more than 39 per-
cent of his shots in the Eastern
Conference finals against Chi-
cago. But against Los Angeles.
Johnson has hit 64.1 percent,
Dumars 62 3 percent and Tho-
mas 47.4 percent.
On Sunday. Dumars had 21 of
his 31 points m the third quar-
ter, Johnson had 13 of his 17 in
the fourth and Thomas finished

211 of their team s 331 points.

Dennis Rodman was the
game’s leading rebounder with
19 in 28 minutes. He was
Detroit’s top non guard scorer
with 12 points.
The Pistons led 57-55 at half-
time, but Los Angeles took the
lead with 10:11 left in the third
period. Dumars had 17consecu-

Detroit coach Chuck Daly said.
“I'd be foolish not to direct our
game to their ability."
The Lakers may have the best
two guard group — NBA most
valuable player Magic Johnson
and Byron Scott — in the
league But hamstring injuries
kept Scott out of the first three
gamesand Magic Johnson out of
the last 1639 of the second
game and all but the first 4 46 of
the third.
Magic started, was replkced
by Tony Campbell after missing
both his shots, and never
returned.
“I could not do anything, play-
defense or do anything else. I
could just run in a straight
line,” Magic Johnson said.
He's listed as questionable
Hearns wants revenge
for the fourth game of the best-
of 7 series, while Scott is listed
as doubtful.
Michael Cooper, a substitute
most of his career, played the
entire game, often teaming in
the backcourt wih seldom-used
guards Campbell or David
Rivers.
“You play with the hand
you're dealt,” Detroit center
Bill Laimbeer said.
The injuries to Magic John-
son and Scott cloud the issue of
which team is better when com-
pletely healthy.
“We ll never really know,"

ending his 2Oyear career after
the series.
