Rangers' 4 homers help to beat Royals
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Ruben Sierra hit two of Texas' four homers and Mike Stanley's BIN triple keyed a three-run seventh inning that carried the Rangers to a 15-8 victory over the Kansas City Royals last night.
Texas' three-run seventh inning broke a 7-1 tie against relievers Bob Stoddard, 1-3, and John Davis. Frank White's grand slam highlighted a five-run sixth inning for the Royals.
Sierra, who was 4-for-5 with two singles in addition to his 24th and 25th homers, led off the seventh with a single off Stoddard, took third on a single by Pete Incaviglia and scored on Pete O'Brien's groundout.
One out later, Stanley tripped to short left-center, just out of the reach of center fielder Willie Wilson. Darrell Porter's RBI single made it 10-7 and Texas added five runs in the
ninth on Sierra's second homer, a three-run triple by Curtis Wilkerson and a groundout.
Steve Howe, 1-2, won his first major-league game since Sept. 3, 1985, with 2% innings of relief.
In the sixth, Dwayne Henry, making his first major-league appearance, relieved Jose Guzman after he had issued two-out walks to Wilson and Kevin Seitzer and a run-scoring single to George Brett. Henry walked Danny Tartabull before White hit his six career grand slam.
Parrish's 27th home gaved Texas a 7-2 lead in an inn kept alive by a two-out throwing error on Royals third baseman Seitzer.
Kansas City got a run in the first inning on a groundout by Brett and in the second on Jamie Quirk's run-scoring single. Sierra's first homer came off Black in the top of the first.
Molitor's streak of hits stretches to 39 games
The Associated Press
MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee's Paul Molitor extended his hitting streak to 39 games Tuesday night with a sixth-inning single against the Cleveland Indians.
Molitor, in his fourth at bat, lined reliever Don Gordon's first pitch in the sixth for a single to right field.
right. In his first at-bat in the bottom of the first, Molitor hit a fly ball to right field. Batting in the second he walked, and in the fourth he grounded to out second base.
Molitor is 68-for-163, a 417 average, during his streak. For the season, Molitor is batting 371 but does not have enough plate appearances to qualify among the leaders.
longest in modern major-league history and the longest the majors since Cincinnati's Pete Rose hit in a National League-record 44 consecutive games in 1978. The last time an American League player had a longer streak than Molitor's was in 1941 when the New York Yankees' Joe DiMaggio set the major-league record of 56 games.
Molitor's streak is the fifth
Molitor's next target is Ty Cobb's 40-game hitting streak in 1911 for Detroit.
Also ahead for Molitor is George Sisler, who hit in 41 straight for the St. Louis Browns in 1922.
The Brewers' designated hitter will try to make it 40 straight Wednesday night when Milwaukee hosts Cleveland again. Rich Yett is scheduled to pitch for the Indians.
49ers boycott Friday draft
The Associated Press
"And I would hope that other teams would follow suit," said Walsh
ROCKLIN, Calif. — San Francisco 49ers Coach Bill Walsh said Tuesday he has sent a letter to the NCAA and athletic directors of all major colleges stating that the team will not participate in Friday's supplemental NFL draft.
In the letter, Walsh recommended the NCAA withhold making eligibil-
ty decisions on athletes until after Sept. 15 and that any NFL supplemental drafts be held in late October or November.
"That would reduce the area in which an agent can coerce a player into taking money illegally so he would be ineligible and be able to go into pro football." Walsh said.
Walsh doesn't believe that the NFLPA and the NFL owners will resolve their differences before the contract expires Tuesday.
