“This is the year when I wanted to
makean impact,” Peter said. “I wanted
to be a starter my sophomore year. I
wanted to contribute to the team as a
sophomore, and then have two years
to really make an impact. So far, ev
erything is going like I had planned, or
hoped it would.”
Jason Peter has 10 tackles on the
season, with four of those going for
losses, while Christian has 18 tackles.
Defensive back Mike Minter leads the
team with 26 tackles.
“I’ve been satisfied with my play,
but I think there is always room for
improvement,” he said. “Every week I
try to get better. I think I’ve done that.
Game by game I’m getting more com
fortable, so it’s only a matter of time
before everything comes totally natu
rally out there.” •
But Peter said he must improve on
all facets of the game to match his
brother, and his own satisfaction.
“I’m not patient enough, and a lot
of times, I’m susceptible to draw plays
because I’mtryingto get upfield to the
quarterback,” he said. “A lot of times,
I think my pass rush could use some
help. All parts of my game need im
provement. There sure isn’t anything
that is perfect.”

Yankees, Indians gain one
game leads in A.L. playoffs
NEW YORK (AP) — Don
Mattingly finally got a chance to play
in the playoffs.
And the long-time New York first
baseman made the most of the oppor
tunity. The wild-card Yankees’ over
came two homeruns by Seattle’s Ken
Griffey, Jr., to beat the Mariners 9-6
Tuesday night at Yankee Stadium and
take a 1-0 lead in the best-of-five
divisional playoff game.
A standing, stomping crowd of
57,278, the largest at Yankee Stadium
since it was remodeled before the 1976
season, saw David Cone pick up the
victory for New York.
Mattingly, playing in the postseason
for the first time of his 14-year career
in pinstripes, delivered an RBI single
and a double. Playoff veterans Wade
Boggs and Ruben Sierra both homered
and Bemie Williams doubled home
the go-ahead run during a four-run
seventh inning that gave New York an
8-4 advantage.
Griffey finished 3-for-5, drove in
three runs and scored three times in
his postseason debut for the Mariners,
who arrived at their New York hotel
shortly before 4 a.m EDT Tuesday.
They were delayed because of
Monday night’s win over California
to decide the American League West
Division, a victory that meant ace
Randy Johnson will not be able to face
the Yankees until game three at the
earliest.
Griffey highlighted Seattle’s first
postseason game with a solo homer
off the upper deck facade in the fourth
inning and a long, two-run shot in the
seventh that tied that score at four.
Still, his performance was not enough
to stop the Yankees in their 35th year
of postseason play, most in the ma
jors, but first appearance since 1981.
Cone, 9-2 since the Yankees got
him from Toronto, pitched eight in
nings, allowing four runs and six hits.
Boggs showed no ill effects from
his injured hamstring when he gave
New York a 2-0 lead with his first
homerun since Aug. 9. Boggs, while
playing for Boston for the majority of
his career, was a .322 hitter in 15
playoff games.
Rookie Andy Pettitte will pitch for
the Yankees against the Mariners’
Andy Benes in game two Wednesday
night in New York.
Also in American league playoff
action, the Cleveland Indians beat the
Boston Red Sox 5-4 on a 13th inning
Tony Pena homerun.
Jones’ two homeruns sink
Rockies, Reds blast Dodgers
DENVER (AP) - The Atlanta
Braves and Cincinnati Reds each took
another step toward postseason glory
last night, winning the first games of
their respective playoff series.
In a nail-biting finish, the Braves
outlasted the Colorado Rockies for a
5-4 win. Chipper Jones broke a ninth
inning tie with a solo homer, but the
Braves had to sweat out a bottom-of
the-ninth scare, as the Rockies loaded
the bases with only one out.
Jones also had homered in the sixth
to break a 3-3 tie.
Greg Maddux put in a less than
masterful performance for the Braves,
puttingin a seven-inning, nine-hit per
formance. He gave up three runs.
Atlanta has racked up a 30-6
record against the Rockies in the last
three years, including a 9-4 record
this year.
The Reds jumped all over the Dodg
ers early, posting four runs in the first
inning en route to a convincing 7-2
win. Cincinnati had been plagued by
shaky play throughout the final month
of the regular season, especially on
natural grass. The Reds had dropped
their last 10 games on grass and 18 of
their last 31 overall.
They showed no signs of that shaki
ness last night though. Cincinnati raced
to a 7-0 lead on the strength of pitcher
Pete Schourek’s seven-inning, five
hit performance and the Reds’ first
inning offensive outburst.
Dodgers pitcher Ramon Martinez
was rocked for 10 hits and seven runs
in 4 1/3 innings.
Cheatham might miss Missouri game
Redshirt freshman split end Kenny
Cheatham could miss the Missouri game
because of a shoulder sprain he suffered
in Monday’s practice.
Senior No. 1 fullback Jeff
Makovicka and backup Brian Schuster
both missed practice on Tuesday.
Makovicka suffered a groin pull, and
Schuster had an ankle sprain.
Senior quarterback Brook
Berringer missed his second consecu
tive practice because of a sore knee.
