Royals' Hrabosky happy with job
OAKLAND (UPI)—Even at this late date, Al Hraibaky becomes a little upset when he thinks about the St. Louis Cardinals, his old ball club.
Hrabosky pitches for the Kansas City Royals now and he's perfectly happy with his lot. That's because the Royals are in the thick of the fight for the American League West title, while the Cardinals are going nowhere in the National League East.
What bothers Hrabosky is what the cardinals said behind his back after he knocked off a wizard.
"They said I couldn't pitch anyone, and that upset me very much," Hrabsky said Monday night he had pitched three Reds in the World Cup, helped the Royals beat the Oakland A.'s, B.
"There was no need for that kind of talk, not after all I had contributed. They could have just let me go and not badmudme them. I didn't say anything about them, and I'm sure if I tried I could have found something to criticize them about."
Hrabosky was on his paired-up best against the A's, especially in the bottom of the seventh when the Royals led by only a seven-second seemed about to be blown out of the ball park.
The A's had loaded the bases on Gale with three singles—the last two in infidel scratches. Royals manager Whitley Hertzog figured that he would have to win last four starts, so he brought in Hrabsky.
"That was a little early in the game for "That said, Herzog," but what could I do. The game was on the line and when you reach the end, we have to go with your best man in the bulleen."
Hrabosky fell behind on Joe Wallis, then struck him out on the next three pitches. He did the same with pinch-hitter Jeff Newman and then finished the inning by inducing Mike Edwards to hit a harmless pop-up to short right.
"I don't see how a man could pitch any better than that considering the circumstances," A's manager Jack McKeon said. "He beat us, that's all."

Given that lift, the Royals rallied for three more runs in the top eight of all—them scored on a long double to left by Amos Lewis his drive in an earlier run, also on a double.
"I threw the ball as hard as I could in the seventh," Hrabsoys said. "Heck, what was I going to save myself for. The game was there to be had or saved.
Volleyball sets 6-2 offense
Yes, using the University of Kansas' volleyball team is using a 6-2 offense this year.
No, the rules of volleyball haven't changed. Only six players are allowed on the court at one time. The number has not been changed to eight.
By KEN DAVIS
So how can the Jayhawk use a 6-2 of ease? Simple. KU will still have six players on the court. The six means that KU will have two sets, the two means that KU will have two sets.
Sports Writer
"ALL THE girls had played 4-2 offenses before last year." Stancliff said. "That's where you have two hitters at the net and a attacking from one corner or the other.
KU head coach Bob Stancil said yesterday that the Jayhawks began using the 6-2 offense last year but that the KU women were still getting used to it.
"In the 6-2 offense, at all times you have three hitters at the net. You have two setters. You not only can attack from the middle, but also from the middle. You have six hitters all together."
Stancliff said that most colleges were now using the 8-2 offense. He said the 8-2 also required a double team.
In a 6-2 offense you have to be a better passing team to utilize the offense completely," Stanclift said. "The first pass has to be very accurate.
"WE HAVE six pretty good hitters and we want to utilize all of them. We switched last year because we thought we had six good hitters, but we used the time but it was new for most of the girls."
"I was satisfied with the transition made last year. This year offensively we have more experienced hitters and a better passing team so we ought to be better."
Stancliff he hoped that the new offense would give the Jayhawks a variation in attack. He said the main advantage the defense gave KU was the attack in the middle.
"The whole idea is a one-on-one situation—hitter against blocker." Stancift said. "Now we can beat that center blocker."
The KU volleyball team has been working
out for two weeks, but Stancill doesn't really know how the team is shaping up. The first week was used for tryouts so last week was the only week of practice.
"WeEVE TAKEN a different approach this year," Stancill said. "We've broken down everything into drills so far. In that case, we will do it while before we will be together as a team."
"It has been kind of slow but in the next couple of weeks things should take form."
"The end of the month will be the first time that we be able to tell how we'll look. Stinna said."
KU will have a scrimmage Sept. 19 against Baker University and Highland Junior College The Jayhawks' first game will be on Sept. 19 against Missouri Western.
