The Cardinals, GMAC FACTORY FINANCING - troubled by minor injuries to (through July 31,1<>85) n Willie McGee and Titooutfielders i Landrum, had planned to take just a brief look at Coleman when they called him up this season. But he impressed them so much that he seems to have found a home in left field. 'I've enjoyed it," Coleman said. "Every day is fun.= Being in the locker room with Ozzie Smith, Lonnie Smith, Willie McGee, those guys keep you loose. And it's a lot of fun meeting guys like Steve Garvey, Andre Dawson, Pete Rose. 1 didn't know a lot about these guys until a few years ago." Coleman's demeanor may be loose, but he has displayed a tremendous work ethic.

OF YOUR CHOICE THROUG The knock against Coleman AUGUST 31, 1985! had been that his hitting paled in comparison with his stealing. No longer. "I wanted to be known as an all-around player,'' Coleman said. "I tend to go out and run that extra mile, go out and do fielding, extra hitting whileextra other guys are taking a shower." Such work should pay off, said Brock, who stole 938 bases. "He's a force on the bases," Brock said. "He can apply heat to the opposition." Coleman isn't quite sure what that means. But it sounds good and he'll take it. "When people compare me to (Brock), the only thing they tell me is that if I can do two-thirds of the things that Brock did and I play the game for 19 years, then I will be in the Hall of Fame. That would be great. This isn't a bad way to make a living." Baseball From Page B2 such games.
