turned was just awesome, there's no other way to express it," Brett said. "In a pressure situation like that, to make sure you don't get upset by credit意思 I thought it was a hit."
White said, "That's the most excited I've been this year. I was just happy I stopped the ball. I really didn't think we could turn it."
The homer was Brett's fourth in the past seven games and gave the surging Royals a sweep of the four-game series. It was Kansas City's sixth straight victory and 17th in two games. The loss was fifth in a 12 game, and 10th in 12 games.
U. Washington singled ahead of Brett's two-out-homer to right. Bob Babcock, 0-1, who pitched 1/2 innings, Gary Christensen, 3-6, got the victory

Herzog to manage Cardinals
ST. LOUIS (AP)-WHite Herzog was named manager of the St. Louis Cardinals, replacing Ken Boyer and Johnny O'Reilly, names of a double-header in Montreal.
Herzog, manager of the Kansas City Royals from 1975 to 1979, will join the Cardinals in atlanta.
At a news conference at the St. Louis home of Cardinals, chairman and president August A. Busch, Jr., Herzog was introduced as the new manager.
Busch also announced that Boyer will be offered another job with the club and said that all the coaches will be retained.
At the news conference, Herzog said he expected only two things from the players: that they be at the ball park on time and work hard while in uniform.
"I'm going to tell the players that it
Herzog said he would seek help from the Cardinal staff in managing the team, but quickly added that he would be the boss.
"If you're good enough, you'll win. Ballplayers make the manager. I'm not that smart," he said.
"I'm going to rely on all the coaches a lot. I'm going to talk to those coaches and I'm going to pick their brains," he said. "But I'm opinionated and hardheaded. Once that game starts, I'm the boss."
Hermez led the Royals to three straight American League Western Division championships. They finished second last season and Hermez was fired in October. His record with the Royals was 410-304.
Hierzog was named manager of the Royals in July 1975 and guided the club to a second-place finish in the AL Western Division. The Royals won the playoff the next three years, losing each year to the New York Yankees in the league playoffs.
Boyer, a former All-Star third baseman who took control of the team two years ago, was fired Sunday after St. Louis lost its 21st game in 26 outings. Expected to be a division title contender in the National League, the Cardinals hold the major leagues' worst record this season.
There was no immediate reaction from Boyer, who was told of his firing by general manager John Claborne. He then left for a four-,4 in the first game of the doubleheader.
Tracksters take 8th at NCAA
KU triple jumper Sanya Owolabi and the 1,600-meter relay team turned in second-class performances to lead the track team to an eighth-plate finish at last weekend's NCAA Outdoor Championships in Austin, Texas.
by UTEP's Steve Hanna for the outdoor championship. Hanna jumped $5-1.
Kansas scored 20 team points. The University of Texas at El Paso, the defending champion, won the team title against Texas, a distant second with 46 points.
Owolabi launched the best jump of his career when he leaped 54+11¹ on his final try. The sophomore from North Niagara, N.Y., ended indoor title earlier this year, was edged
KU's 1,600-meter relay of Stan Whitaker, Mike Ricks, Lester Mickers and Dean Hogan also came close, but a missed shot by the Maryland, Tennessee's Anthony Bairn nipped a struggling Hogan at the tape to give the Vols the victory. Tennessee's time was a meet-record 3:03:49. KU ran to break a four-year-old school record.
Steve Rainbolt finished eighth in the decathlon. On the first day of the competition he finished first in the high jump, but not in the long jump. He scored 70-9, a decathlon most record.
Ninety-degree heat and oppressive humidity took its toll. Hogan collapsed after finishing the 408-meters relay final half an hour later, Hogan relay final half an hour later, Hogan
Three KU Big Eight champions failed to qualify for the finals. Pole vaulter Jeff Buckingham, high jumper Joel Light and steeperchaver Paul Schultz did not meet the preliminaries of their events.
Discus thrower Matt Friedmann made it into the second round of competition but failed to qualify for the finals. His best throw was 174-1.
Jeltz signs; Gundelfinger waits

He said the Angels' representatives would talk to him this week.
Jeltz planned to fly to Spartanburg yesterday to join the club before its game today.
mean I'm not going to," Gundelfinger said.
Steve Jelzit, who played second base for KU, signed a contract Saturday to play baseball for the Philadelphia team in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
"I haven't signed yet, but that doesn't
Matt Gundlingefeller, Overland Park junior, who was drafted in the fourth round by the California Angels, hasn't decided whether he will sign.
KU baseball coach Floyd Temple was not surprised by the draft of Gundlinger, KU's first All-American in 16 years.
"I was expecting him to get drafted, but you're never sure about the professionals because the scouts look at so many different areas." he said.
Gundelfinger was the designated hitter for the Jayhawks this season.
"A lot of the scouts didn't see me in
the defense at all, and they said it probably hurt me in the draft," he said.
"If he decides to come back I'd be glad to have him. That's the understatement of the year," he said.
Temple said he was sure Gun-deflinger would make the right decision.
Temple said he had anticipated that Jeltz would sign a contract.
Jeltz said that he was happy about signing and that he expected to play in today's game.
"All I wanted was a chance. I hope I can move up pretty fast."
