At Least Hershiser Completes This One : Baseball: Both managers and first basemen ejected by plate umpire Hohn in same inning during Dodgers’ 6-2 victory. Piazza, Sharperson homer.

While sitting in the visitor’s clubhouse watching his team play on television, Dodger Manager Tom Lasorda turned to Eric Karros and said: “Watch, Eric, Bill Hohn is going to eject Eddie Murray, too.”

Karros and Lasorda had both been tossed by home plate umpire Hohn in the top of the fifth inning of the Dodgers’ 6-2 victory over the New York Mets Friday night at Shea Stadium.

Karros was tossed by Hohn for cursing his partner, first base umpire Larry Poncino, who ruled that Karros had gone around on a third strike.

“I was walking toward the dugout and all I said was, ‘ . . . call, Larry,” Karros explained.

Lasorda was ejected while trying to find out why Karros was ejected.

“I told (Hohn) that there wasn’t anybody up in those stands who paid to see him umpire, but they have paid to see my guys play,” Lasorda said. “And then I added that if there was anybody up there to see him, they were his relatives, and they didn’t pay.”

Hohn said simply that he tossed Lasorda for hanging around too long.

So Lasorda and Karros, back in the air-conditioned clubhouse, watched as Hohn ejected Murray in the bottom of the fifth inning for arguing balls and strikes.

“So I call Eddie in his clubhouse and I say, ‘Eddie, how could you argue that strike? It was way outside,’ ” Lasorda said. “And Eddie says, ‘All I said to the guy was that he should try and be a better umpire.’ ”

And while Lasorda was talking on the phone with Murray, Met Manager Dallas Green walked in. Hohn had tossed Green after he had gone out to argue on Murray’s behalf.

“So Dallas gets on the phone and I say, ‘Dallas, why did he throw you out?’ And Dallas says, ‘Tommy, you screwed that guy up so much he threw me out too.’ ”

At least Hohn, in his fifth season as a major league umpire, was consistent, tossing the two starting first baseman and the two managers, all in the same inning. It might not have been a record, but it was somewhat fitting for this Dodger trip, in which every game recently has has some added element of drama.

One night it’s 20 innings, the next a doubleheader. They have played through stifling heat with little sleep and even had a hair-raising bus ride to the park Friday by a would-be good driver trying to get the team to Shea stadium on time. And it was 93 degrees at game time.

“After playing 39 innings, playing only nine makes it seem like we got ripped off, that we didn’t play enough,” said Orel Hershiser (7-8), whose complete game had the overworked Dodger bullpen cheering.

“I got some extra aggressive high-fives from the relievers when I came into the dugout,” Hershiser said. “I even think I got a few hugs.”

It was Hershiser’s third complete game this season and first victory in five starts. He entered the game with four consecutive losses, but that isn’t an indicator of how he has been pitching. In one loss he gave up one run in nine innings; in another he gave up three runs in eight innings.

“I was happy to see (Mike) Sharperson’s ball leave the park tonight in the eighth inning,” Hershiser said. “I had some tough hitters coming up in the last two innings.”

With the Dodgers leading, 4-2, Sharperson hit a two-run homer against Met starter Frank Tanana (4-8) over the center-field fence, his second home run this season. He also singled in Eric Davis in the second inning and singled and later scored in the fourth inning to put the Dodgers ahead, 4-1.

Sharperson, who hasn’t played much this season because of Jody Reed, is five for seven with four runs batted in during the last two games.

“It’s about time,” said Sharperson, who last year at this time was headed for the All-Star game.

Mike Piazza, who is headed to this year’s All-Star game, hit his 18th home run in the third inning, a towering two-run shot over the left-field fence to put the Dodgers ahead, 3-1.

Two innings later, the crowd of 24,258 was entertained when the mild-mannered Karros went nose to nose with Hohn after he had been thrown out. Karros had been ejected only once--in Class A.

“I yelled at Larry and Bill Hohn threw me out,” Karros said. “I was frustrated about that and suffered the consequences.”
