Pirates’ Dave Parker

loves a knuckleball —

Charlie Hough, the Los
Angeles Dodgers’
knuckleball relief specialist,
threw Dave Parker one too
many Wednesday night.

The first two went for
strikes against Parker in the

seventh inning, but: the
Pittsburgh slugger lined up
the next one and belted it out
of ihe park for his fifth home
run of the season to give the
Pirates a 7-6 victory over the
Dodgers. .

‘it was a knuckler,’’
Parker said, ‘It brake down
and in — it might even have
been a ball. Itzjust happened
to be where I was swinging.”

Parker’s blast ended a
bizarre game in which the
Pirates grabbed a 6-0 lead,
only to see the Dodgers come
back to tle it. ; :

‘The Pirates built their
advantage on home runs by
Ed Ott in the second inning,

Apparently it takes quite a
bit to impress Hal McRae,
“T figure you keep going

until the third out,’’ McRae
said Wednesday. night, after

he helped the Kansas City

Royals assemble a near-
record nine straight hits en
route to a 12-5 triumph over

the Chicago White Sox. .

“After all; we get three outs,
don't.we?n

McRge, Willle Wilson and
U.L. Washington each drove
in two runs in a fourth-
inning, eight-run outburst,
with two out. The nine
straight hits were one shy of
the AL record set by Boston
in 1901.

McRae remained unitm-
pressed.

“We didn’t count,”’ he said.

“I only count the runs, not
the hits,’ Kansas City
Manager Jim Frey said. ‘I
didn’t even realize we had.
that many in a.row.”’.

In the sixth, the Dodgers
started to retaliate, as they
reached rookie Pascal Perez

shy of record —

for.an RBI single by Reggie
Smith and a sacrifice fly by
Steve Garvey. They tied the
game, 66, in a four-run
seventh, when Dave Lopes
drew a bases-loaded walk
and Madlock’s throwing
error on Smith's grounder
paved the way for three
unearned runs.
