out in the eighth inr to give
the Texas Rnng-rs a ?-2 :ictor

only .168 going into the game,
lined a serve from Detroit
pitcher Vern Ruhe to the
wall in right center field al-
lowing Ilarrah, who walked
with two out, to score.
The hit by Labosd climaxed
a sparkling late inning nitching
duel between Ruhle, 5-5, and
Texas' Steve Barr. Barr, who
won his only other game of the
season way back on April 13,
allowed only one hit over the
last five innings, a one-out
ninth-inning single by Aurelio
Rodiriguez.
Yanks split
NEW YORK - Rov White

eighth in-ing to beat the Kan-
sas City Bovals i'4 for a s'rlit of
yesterday's twilight double-
header.

Kansas City took the open-
er 3-1 as Doug Bird and
Steve Mingori combined to
nitch a three hitter and the
Rovels come from behind on

2svherry and tlal McRae in

The Phillies' bullpen never

tinoed the assault with a single,
and Baker and Russell scored
on leager's triple.
Reds roll
MONTREAL - Ken Griffey's
two-rio double sparked a five-
run seventh inning that carried
the Cincinnati Reds to a 18-7
victory over the Montreal Ex-
pos last night.
The Reds led 5-4 when they
loaded the bases in the seventh
against Don Carithers, the sec-
ond Montreal pitcher, on a sin-
gle, a walk, a sacrifice and an
ittentional walk.
After Griffey drove in two
runs, Joe Morgan was walked
intentionally and George Foster
reached on an error- by second
baseman Pete MacKain. Foster
got an RBI on the play and a
second run earned on the error.
Dan Driessen capped the in-
ning's scoring with a sacrifice
fly to center.
