Boston (78-54, AL East, fifth): Lee Smith (36 saves) could be the savior of the once non-existent Boston bullpen. The Sox have strong starters in Roger Clemens, Oil Can Boyd and Bruce Hurst. Also, new faces such as Mike Greenwell (.328, 19 HR, 89 RBI), Ellis Burks (20 HR) and Sam Horn (14 HR in 46 games) can turn Fenway into a funhouse this summer. Best player: Wade Boggs (.363, 24 HR...
Baltimore (67-95, AL East sixth): Hello, Papa Ripken, where's your pitching? The Birds had the worst ERA (5.01) in Oriole history. Last year, no O won more than 12 games.

Best player: Larry Sheets (.316, 31 HR, 94 RBI in just 135 games...

But Gorbachev had insisted there should be no "blank pages" in his country's past. Now, in an address marking the 70th anniversary of the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution, he had an ideal...
...Laid. The first is Director Richard Attenborough's stately, schizophrenic epic of South Africa a decade ago as blacks groped toward liberation. Sammy & Rosie is Screenwriter Hanif Kureishi's double vision of London as the hip place to be and the last place on postimperial earth. For 2 hr. 35 min., Cry Freedom meanders through a meadow of noble sentiments, finding its only drama in the education of a white liberal South African and his escape from that apartheid prison camp. In an hour less, Sammy & Rosie blasts a bomber crew of blacks, Pakistanis, Americans and leftist Brits through...
