But there is little doubt that Reagan would use U.S. military power abroad more aggressively than Carter.

More than 600 policemen -some mounted on horseback, others hauling on the leashes of snarling attack dogs-surrounded the field during the final inning. With 65,838 fans thus held at bay, Relief Pitcher Tug McGraw threw a third-strike pitch past Royals' Outfielder Willie Wilson with the bases loaded for the last out, and the title belonged to Manager Dallas Green's team...
