Pagliarulo powers Yanks past Rangers

ByDICKBRINSTER AP Sports Writer Mike Pagliarulo is one player who doesn’t believe in setting goals for himself, but that doesn’t bother the New York Yankees, because he already has exceeded his home run production of last season. “I never really have set any ... because I never had a chance to play regularly,” Pagliarulo said after hitting a three-run homer Monday night to lead the Yankees to an 8-4 victory over the Texas Rangers that moved New York within five games of Boston in the American League East. “Besides, if I had set a goal to hit 20 or 25 home runs this season, 1 don’t th nk I’d have 23 now,” the Yankee third baseman explained. “Next year, I don’t want to say I’m going to hit 30 or 35. I might hit more.” Pagliarulo, tied with Oakland’s Jose Canseco and Toronto’s Jesse Barfield for the major league lead, hasn’t wasted many of his homers. Monday night was no exception, with Pagliarulo hitting his three-run shot in the first inning as the Yankees took a 4-0 lead. “I’m not surprised, but I’m very happy about Pags,” Yankee Manager Lou Piniella said. “He hit 19 last year, and he platooned all year.” Elsewhere in the AL, it was Cleveland 5, Chicago 2; Minnesota 1, Detroit 0; Kansas City 6, Baltimore 1; Milwaukee 5, California 3; Oakland 5, Boston 2, and Toronto 8, Seattle 3. Indians 5, White Sox 2 Mel Hall had his 17th homer as red-hot Cleveland cooled off visiting Chicago.

MIKE PAGLIARULO Passes 'B6 production

Hall, seriously injured last season in an auto accident, has given up wondering if fractures to his left clavicle and pelvis and other assorted injuries would keep him from playing to his full potential this season. The Indians, who got 4 2-3 innings of scoreless, two-hit relief from Rich Yett, 4-0, who retired 14 of the 16 hitters he faced. Blue Jays 8, Mariners 3 Jesse Barfield and George Bell each hit two homers to help Toronto overpower Seattle in the Kingdome. “I set my goals and I’m sure George sets his. I think we really complement each other,” said Barfield after he and Bell helped lead a 16-hit attck. The Blue Jays’ outfielders jumped on Seattle starter Mark Huisman, 23, for back-to-back home runs to set off a five-run rally in the fourth in-

ning. A’s 5, Red Sox 2 Oakland left-hander Curt Young may have lost his bid for to shut out Boston on Dwight Evans’ two-out, two-run homer in the ninth inning, but he wasn’t about to lose sleep over it. “I got the win, and that’s all that matters,” Young said “I’ll take a 5-2 win any day. A shutout is a bonus.” Young, 7-6, allowed only three hits and retired 14 consecutive Boston hitters in one stretch. Twins 1, Tigers 0 Kirby Puckett scored on Kent Krbek’s sixth-inning bloop single to give Minnesota its victory over Detroit. Frank Viola, 10-8, outdueled Mark Thurmond, who lost his first American League start. Viola and Keith Atherton, who got his eighth save, combined on a four-hitter as the Twins ended Detroit’s five-game

Astros win 4th straight

By BEN WALKER AP Baseball Writer Now that the Houston Astros have won four straight games, they’re looking to get hot. “We puj, three or four together before. We’ve been consistent, but we just haven’t gotten hot yet,” Bill Doran said Monday night after the Atros rallied for two runs in the ninth inning and beat the Montreal Expos 8-7. The victory put Houston in sole possession of first place in the National League West, one game ahead of San Francisco. Jose Cruz, who went 4-for-5 with a homer and double, and Glenn Davis

winning streak. Royals 6, Orioles 1 Steve Balboni doubled in the eighth and hit a two-run homer in the ninth to give Kansas City its win in Baltimore. Danny Jackson, 6-6, allowed four hits in seven innings as the Royals snapped a 10-game road losing streak. Brewers 5, Angels 3 Rob Deer and Dale Sveum each drove in two runs in the fourth to lead visiting Milwaukee over California. Bill Wegman, 3-8, had been winless in his last six starts. He figured his luck had to change sooner or later. “No way I should’ve been a 2-8 pitcher going in,” he said after beating California. “I’ve pitched a lot of good games I should’ve won, or certainly could’ve won.”

drove in three runs apiece for the Astros. Davis singled home the tying run in the ninth and Cruz followed by singling home the game-winner. “Games like these are great if you win, but if you lose you go home and have some sleepless nights,” Houston Manager Hal Lanier said. In other NL action, St. Louis downed San Francisco 8-3, New York beat Cincinnati 4-2, Philadelphia got past Atlanta 3-1 and Chicago defeated San Diego 6-1. Cardinals 8, Giants 3 Willie McGee hit two homers in a game for the first time since Game 3 of the 1982 World Series, helping St. Louis beat Steve Carlton and visiting San Francisco. Carlton, who hit a three-run homer, fell to 4-10 overall, including 0-2 in three starts for the Giants. He allowed three earned runs on five hits in six innings. McGee hit a solo homer in the first inning and a two-run shot in the fourth, giving him six this season. He became the first Cardinal to hit two home runs in a game since t)avid Green on July 27,1984. Mets 4, Reds 2 Gary Carter hit a two-run single and Rick Aguilera checked Cincinnati for eight innings as New York beat Mario Soto and the Reds. Aguilera, 3-3, gave up eight hits and struck out a career-high nine. Jesse Orosco pitched a scoreless ninth for his 13th save. Phillies 3, Braves 1 Mike Schmidt, who had been intentionally walked twice earlier in the game, hit a two-out, two-run single with the bases that broke a ninth-inning tie and lifted Philadelphia over Atlanta. The Phillies loaded the bases on a pinch-single by Tom Foley, an error by reliever Jeff Dedmon and Juan Samuel’s hit by pitch. Schmidt then singled, giving gim the league lead with 71 RBI and 21 homers. Kent Tekulve, 3-1, got the victory and Steve Bedrosian gained his 12th save. Dedmon, 3-5, took the loss. Cubs 6, Padres 1 Jerry Mumphrey went 4-for-4, highlighting a 13-hit attack that led Chicago over San Diego. Rookie Jamie Moyer, 2-2, shut out the Padres on five hits over eight innings. LaMarr Hoyt, 5-5, took the loss as San Diego fell for the fourth straight time. Ron Cey and Chris Speier had RBI doubles for the host Cubs. Jackson is improving MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) Heisman Trophy winner Bo Jackson, whose professional baseball career is off to a slow start, may have finally found his “timing” in the batter’s box, his boss says. Jackson, who had an eight-game hitting streak snapped Monday night, was named Monday as player of the week in the Southern League. “When his (batting) average wasn’t good, he was still doing the right things mechanically,” said George Lapides, president of the Memphis Chicks. “His timing was off, which was to be expected because he hadn’t played,” Lapides said. “Now he’s played and he’s getting his timing.” Jackson made headlines when he rejected a multi-million dollar offer from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League to give baseball a try. He signed with the Kansas City Royals and was sent to the Chicks, a Class AA farm club in the Southern League. During his hitting streak, Jackson had collected 11 hits in 26 times at bat, for a .423 batting average. He scored seven runs and drove in 11. Overall, Jackson is hitting .203 for his 21 games as a professional, with 15 hits in 74 at-bats. Jackson has struck out 34 times.
