HOUSTON — Reliever Joe Beck
with’s throwing error to third base on
a sacrifice bunt attempt allowed
Cesar Cedeno to score from second
base with the winning run in the 12th
inning Tuesday night and gave the
Houston Astros a 5-4 triumph over
the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Cedeno, who went 5-for-5 with an
intentional walk and two RBI,
opened the 12th off reliever Beck
with, 3-1, with a double into the left
field comer. Art Howe was inten
tionally walked and Beckwith fielded
pinch-hitter Craig Reynolds’ bunt
down the third base line and threw
wildly into left field.
Frank LaCorte, 4-0, pitched hit
less relief over the final 2V3 innings to
pick up the triumph.
Joe Morgan’s fifth homer — his
first in the Astrodome this season —
tied the score against reliever Steve
Howe in the ninth inning after pinch
hitter Reggie Smith’s two-out, run
scoring single in the eighth inning
had given the Dodgers a 4-3 lead.
A pair of throwing errors by start
ing pitcher Nolan Ryan, four hits and
a pair of walks produced three early
runs for the Dodgers, but the Astros
came back to tie the score behind the
hitting of Cedeno, who drove in a
third-inning run with a single and
tied the score 3-3 in the fifth with an
RBI double.
The victory gives the Astros a
three-game lead in the National
League’s Western Division over the
Dodgers. Houston now has a 41-25
record, the second best record in
baseball.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. —Fed
eral prosecutors, who failed in efforts
to convict one former University of
New Mexico basketball coach,
announced Tuesday mail fraud
charges would be dropped against
another former coach.
John Whisenant, an assistant
coach who left UNM after the 1978-<
1979 basketball season to enter pri
vate business, was indicted with his
former head coach, Norm Ellenber-
ger, in a scheme to falsify transcripts
of basketball players.
Ellenberger, who was fired as
coach shortly after the UNM sports
scandal broke late last year, was ac
quitted last Friday following a week-
long trial at Roswell, N.M.
“The acquittal of Norm Ellenber
ger makes it unlikely that the federal
prosecution of Mr. Whisenant would
result in a conviction,” said U.S.
Attorney R.E. Thompson. “For that
reason, I have concluded that the
federal charges against John Whise
nant should be terminated at this
time.”
