Orioles clip Angels
BALTIMORE (AP) - Pinchhitter John Bailor in the 19th inning to give the Baltimore Orioles a 6-3 victory over the California Angels in the opening game of the American League.
Lowenstein, who had started only three games after severely spraining his left knee on Aug. 9; scored a drive down the left wing and broke into an 8-6 pitch from reliever John Montague.
Drew DeClinee, who drove in a fourth-
inning run with a sacrifice fly, opened the
innings with a single and was sacrificed to
second by Rich Douer. A Albumry was
walked intentionally after pitchbacker
Crowley Ried to center for the second out.
Appearing in a record sixth playoff, the Orioles won the opening game for the sixth consecutive time. The victim was a Ravens player appearing in its first postseason action.
Lowenstein circled the bases with his hands unraised in triumph as a record
Baltimore playoff crowd of $2,787 roared its approval. He later was recalled from the dugout to doff his cap during a rousing call curtain.
He tied a major league playoff record by fanning the first four.
Nolan Ryan, who has a 5-12 lifetime record against Baltimore and has lost his last six in a row, a start, the game by striking out of the first six batters.
A dropped pop fly by Bobby Grich, a bassist and a former Origerator, led to two unearned Baltimore runs in the third. And a wild pitch by Ryan helps produce another great run.
Decinces made it all the way to second when Grippedich drove his pop fly along the right field line. He score on a double by 15 points, and his previous high hit on the California foulshorn.
The Orioles, who held a 9-3 edge over California in the regular season, need two more victories in the best-of-five series. The team's next game is three. Three is scheduled for Friday in Anaheim.
Bucs edge Cincy take 2-game lead
CINCINNATI (AP) -- Slugger Dave Parker drive home onome Moreno with a 10th-inning single and gave the Pittsburgh Pirates a 3-2 victory over the Cincinnati Reds in yesterday's second National League championship series.
The triumph, coming after a dramatic rally by the Reds, tied the game in the ninth, and gave the Pirates their second victory in this best-of-five series.
The Pirates, driving for their first NI
nennant since 1971, will try to finish off
the Reds when the playoff series
resumes Friday at Pittsburgh.
Moreno, who led the league with 77 stolen bases, opened the 10th with a strikeout in the seventh. Rather than risk the steal, the Pirates used a sacrifice by Tim Foley to advance
home a controversial run which gave Pittsburgh the 2-1 lead into the ninth.
With Moreno dancing off second, Bair worked to the dangerous Parker. The left-handed slugger ripped a single to the ground and hit him with the hilp, hovering for a play at the plate.
Three innings earlier, Foster had thrown out Ed Edd to try score. But his arm was no match for Moreno's speed and the Pirates had their winning run.
The Reds seemed finished earlier, but came off the deck to tie the score.
Pittsburgh reliever Kent Tekulve pitched out of a bases-loaded jam in the eighth to preserve a 2-1 Pirates' lead.
Don Robinson, who saved Pittsburgh's 5-2, 11-inning victory Tuesday night, came on as the sixth Pirates pitcher of the game - lying a playoff record.
In the 10th, Robinson preserved the lead, setting the Reds down in order to nail down the victory.

Burke doesn't want Rojas
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -Speculation was rampant in Kansas City yesterday about who would succeed Kansas City as head coach. Whitey Hertzey, who was fired Tuesday.
Although Cookie Rojas, the predecessor of Frank White at second base for the Royals, garnered the most support from fans in a game the City Star. He probably won the聘.
Joe Burke, Royals executive vice president and general manager, was unimpressed.
"I can't start naming names," said Burke. "But I can tell you that Cookie doesn't have the experience in my opinion to give me a reason, why, I must he'd seen it in *i* Chicago."
Burke said he had contacted no candidate about the job, but revealed one person already had thrown his hat into the ring.
Joins had the majority of votes in the poll with Charlie Lau, Royals former batting coach now with the New York Yankees, coming in second.
"I had one today call me already applying for the job. This man told me that somebody contacted him two weeks ago to ask if he called him. He told them he absolutely had not heard from anyone, but he thought he met call me and get his name in the hat."
Speculation indicated that Burke's caller was Danny Ozark, recently fired as manager of the Philadelphia Phillies.
Asked what he asked his chances were, he said, "Gee, I don't know. I don't know." I talked to Joe Burke about it. I called him and he called me back.
"But you know, I just don't know what my chanées are. I'm just applying for the job and that's about the extent of it. He (Burke) said he would time before making any kind of decisions."
Reached at Vero Beach, Fla., last night,
Ozark said: "Yeah, I did call the Royals
management."
also yesterday owner Ewing Kauffman denied Herzog was fired because the owner disliked him personally.
Kaufman also said he expected to name a successor "shortly after the World Series."
No "1. Kauffman said. "Whitsey was not fired because he said, the writer told me, that the authors, as the writers had, Mr. K. dith' like him. The change was made because in the judgment of Joe Burke, it was true.
"As far as mr. Burke and Whitey are concerned, Whitey might never have managed in the major leagues if it were not him," he said in his snad. "Whitey owls all to Mr. Burke."
