THE NEWS VIRGINIAN, Waynesboro, Va. Thursday, September 4, 1997 B-3 Expos and By The Associated Press Gary Sheffield had the Baltimore Orioles looking for cover in the American League. Carlos Perez and Mike Lansing had a pair of Boston Red Sox pitchers wondering how they could lose a one-hitter. The first year of regular-season interleague play came to a close Wednesday night, with the Florida Marlins and Montreal Expos finishing with 12-3 records against the AL. Sheffield homered with one out in the ninth inning to give Florida a 7-6 victory over Baltimore, while Perez threw a two-hitter and Lansing homered for Montreal's lone hit in a 1-0 decision over Boston.

With the Marlins and Expos leading the way, National League teams finished interleague play 117-97. The NL took the final two stages 28-18 and 53-31 after dropping the first round 48-36. At Miami, Sheffield's homer off Shawn Boskie (6-6) gave the Marlins their 22nd victory in their last at-bat and second in a row against the ALleading Orioles, who lost their last five games against NL teams. Florida has 39 comeback victories. "You've got to beat the best to say you're the champions," Sheffield said.

"First place is all I've got my mind on. Hopefully, we can go into the playoffs as hot as we are now and take the whole thing." The Orioles had a scare in the third inning when a section of the roof over their dugout collapsed. No players were hurt. "A lot of crazy things have happened to cause injuries," said Orioles ironman Cal Ripken, who was on the field when the roof collapsed. "That would have been the craziest." Ripken hit a three-run homer for Baltimore, 8- 7 against the NL.

Jay Powell (5-2) pitched a perfect ninth for Florida, which has won six straight to move within games of NL East-leader Atlanta. At Montreal, Aaron Sele and Tom Gordon combined on a one-hitter, but could not overcome Lansing's homer and Perez's masterful pitching. "That's baseball. You make one mistake and it seems to come back and hurt you," Sele (12-12) said of Lansing's third-inning homer. Perez (12-10) struck out eight and walked none, allowing a second-inning single to Wil Cordero and a fourth-inning double to John Valentin.

Strickland "appeared to be intoxicated and was a little disorderly" when he was stopped, said police Capt. Dewey Wiseman. Strickland refused to take a Breathalyzer test, Martin said.

Strickland had no comment after Wednesday's brief hearing. He left the courthouse by a back door and got into a black BMW with several other people. Martin told reporters his client was treated "unfairly." Strickland was held overnight, which is unusual in such cases, Martin said. "We await his day in court. We think that Rod Strickland will be vindicated on all these charges." lead NL to 117-97 interleague edge AP PHOTO Washington Wizards' Rod Strickland was arrested early Wednesday morning on charges of driving under the influence.

(AP) Dale Earnhardt is ready to return to racing now that medical tests have failed to pinpoint a reason why he fell asleep at the wheel during the Southern 500. Reporta from tests conducted on Earnhardt over a four-day period have been forwarded to NASCAR officials in Daytona Beach, Fla. The sanctioning body for stock car racing's premier series was expected to decide today whether to clear Earnhardt to rejoin the Winston Cup circuit in time for this weekend's event at Richmond International Raceway. Earnhardt has started 537 consecutive races, the secondlongest streak on the circuit behind Terry Labonte's 560. "He's as ornery as he's ever been, and he wants to race," David Allen, a spokesman for the seven-time Winston Cup champion, said 1 Wednesday.

Doctors at two hospitals conducted numerous tests to try to determine why Earnhardt, 46, nodded off at the wheel before Sunday's race and then wrecked on the first lap and showed repeated signs of being disoriented. The information from the tests was shared with doctors at two other hospitals, giving Earnhardt opinions from specialists at four institutions. "All of our indications are nothing was found and that he's fine," Allen said. Auburn forces a few changes CHARLOTTESVILLE When the Auburn football team comes to David A. Harrison III Field at Scott Stadium tonight, the challenge on the field is not the only one facing the University of Virginia.

It's the second Thursday night football game at Virginia in the last three seasons and it presents a significant challenge, not only to the Va. team, but to the entire University community from a logistical standpoint. "This is clearly a Universitywide effort in communicating with our many constituencies inside and outside the University," Virginia Associate Athletic Director Mark Fletcher said. "We need to coordinate the parking and transportation plan, and get support from the deans, directors and department heads to offer 'flex time' options to create the best situations for their operations and employees." Changes in normal game day parking include: "The parking lots around the stadium will not open until 5:00 p.m. "There will be limited football game day parking at University Hall for the general extra money by income taxes opportunity to interview with Block but are under no obligation to accept employment nor does graduation from the course guarantee offer of employment.
