Schmidt Hopes to quiet critics by Ralph Bernstein Philadelphia a critics of Mike Schmidt better wait until the endow inc season before tagging the 38-year old slumping slugger with the Label has been the Philadelphia Phillies All Star third baseman says. If these same people can look at my figures at the end of the year and say the same thing i guarantee you 1 will too said Schmidt in an interview tuesday Schmidt who was hitting .223 with five Home runs and 30 runs batted in before the Start of tuesday night s twi night double header with the Montreal expos is in the worst slump of his 15 year major league career. He was o-for-4 in tuesday s 5-2 phillies1 win. Wednesday Schmidt hit 2-for-4 with a double and an rib in a 4-2 decision. Schmidt who with 535 career Home runs is eighth All Lime has been to the plate 101 times since his last Homer May 20. He has averaged one Homer every 14.7 times at Bat during his career. Not Only is Schmidt slumping at Bat but the 10-Limc Gold Glove winning third baseman already has 14 errors almost As Many As he makes in an average season. People arc entitled to their opinion said Schmidt As he sat pensively in from of his locker. It s inc human nature thing to say when a Guy is approaching the end of Bis career and he s not playing up to the standards that he created for himself. I m playing below those Stan Dards. It s the com Mon thing to say at that Point thai he s on the decline. But let s not forget 19b5. They were saying the same thing. I was in Schmidt worse shape statistically at this time of year than i am  Well not quite. But close. At the end of june three years ago Schmidt was hitting ,237 with nine Home runs and 32 rib. He finished at .277 with 33 Home runs and 93 rib. The next iwo seasons he went on to Hil .290 and .293, hit 37 and 36 homers drove in 119 and 113 runs. He won his third no map in 86. Schmidt does t accept the possibility that he May have lost a fraction of his reflex  Don t think Hilting wisc i be lost anything. I think my year so far has Beena product of bad Luck a couple of injuries and trying Loo hard. I Don t think it s a Case of my Eye bad or i be lost my quickness t my strength. It s related to something other than that and i m confident things will fall into  Schmidt admits that he May be experiencing some lesser physical reactions m the Field. I think my initial instincts Are there he said. But there arc times when the legs won t move. The Confidence in in legs in t there. And then there Are times when it is there he adds that he has had some Good games in the Field made some Vintage Schmidt plays. But i think this is overshadowed by the fact that a lot of my errors this Yea have been ill limed they be been in the Middle of a big inning for the other learn. They be been allowed by base hit Sand Home runs. It s not been a year where i error and the next two Guys strike  Schmidt also admits thai the poo Start by the Phillies has been very frustrating to him. He expected belter a team that would contend. He says thai Over the Yean he has grown used to the Boos and feels that there Are times when they Are justified. There Are nights that arc uncomfortable. But i bring in on myself by playing poorly. I d be the first to admit i d have a negative reaction to my play on Many a night this year. I just have to keep my sights set on things changing. The Little inches that Aren t going my Way now Are going logo my Way in the second half of he season. I d rather have a poor firs half and a Greal second half than the other Way around. I m a Good week from being among the top four in rib in the league. I could reach the All Star break july 11 with 12, 14 Home runs and 54 rib. Schmidt appears More concur in Daboul his defense than his offence. I be been kind of off this year not the third baseman i be been Over the years. 1 Haven t made Ibe Vintage Mike Schmid plays the kind 1 was the Only Guy who made , i Haven t been pulling that play  reaction simply there is a time in your career that you play a Little bit More of a cautious third base than an aggressive All out take a Chance third base. I think it s directly related to age. La s not that i Don t have the instincts thai i used to have. Mentally i see plays devel Oping. Sometimes. My body wont react like i d like in  Schmidt last Winter signed a iwo year 12.25 million contract the Phillies re Tain an option to buy out the second Yea if they Don l Eibink Schmidt is up to the Job physically or whatever. Is Schmidt thinking of accepting the buyout let s talk in september he said.
