Moses pumps in 42 more
as Rockets bomb Kings
United Press International
HOUSTON — Like a fictional but nevertheless
persuasive character in the song “Lola,” whatever
Moses Malone wants, Moses gets.
And on Sunday, the Kansas City Kings learned
that the omnipresent Houston Rocket center was as
real as a bruise as he pounded his way inside for 42
points and 24 rebounds.
The effort, Malone’s first of that caliber in the
four-game-old series, carried the Rockets to a 100-89
victory and a 3-1 lead in the NBA Western Confer
ence final series.
Rockets coach Del Harris said Malone’s desires
sometimes make his pre-game plans simple.
“Moses really wanted the ball today, and when he
wants it you’ve really got to give it to him, Harris
said. “I guess you could point to his intensity being
better than in the last couple of games.”
Malone said he moved quicker once a pass came
into him Sunday, “to prevent the backside defender
from sagging” on him. He added his performance did
not mean that much to him.
“I won’t be happy until its over. I thought we
should have ended it today. This series should have
been 4-0. I thought we played bad in Kansas City.
We didn’t play smart,” he said.
Getting the ball to Malone Sunday was handled
well, even though the sometimes awkward 6-foot-ll
athlete hit 18 of 34 shot from point blank range. His
movement toward the basket, however, carried him
into position to dominate the board.
Kings forward Reggie King, who was assigned to
guard Malone, said, “Moses got the ball more today.
He’s awfully tough to stop when he goes at the basket
that much. He plays hard. He always plays hard.”
Kings guard Otis Birdsong, who drew his first
starting assignment in the series despite a sore ankle,
scored only one basket in 14 minutes but said the
series was still alive for his team.
“I know one thing, it’s not over. It’s frustrating not
being able to play like I can, but I have two days rest
now and I think I’ll contribute,” said Birdsong.
Kansas City’s only win in the series was in Game 2
Wednesday, and two of the final three games if
needed will be played on the kings’ home court.
The Kings, a favorite in the series despite two
injured guards, were forced with the loss to win the
final three games to advance to the NBA finals.
Malone hit only 16of33 shots, all from close range,
as a trio of Kings worked him over. In Game 3
Friday, he hit only five of 17 shots as he shifted to
guard King.
The Rockets, who have never gained the NBA
final series, put Billy Paultz back on King Sunday,
and the 6-foot-6 Kings forward had a 24 point field
day. But only four of his teammates scored as many as
10 points. The Kings played withoutt Birdsong and
fellow guard Phil Ford at full strength, but they
remained only three points behind the Rockets with
six minutes to play Sunday.

Astros snap losing streak
cash in
iitha
Indians take Rangers, 4-3
United Press International
CLEVELAND — The Cleve
land Indians finally gave their
home fans something to cheer
about.
First baseman Mike Hargrove
ended the Indians’ three-game
home losing streak Sunday, hit
ting left-handed to single home
Alan Bannister and give the In
dians a 4-3 victory over the Texas
Rangers. The victory gave Cleve
land first place in the American
League East.
Hargrove’s RBI in the ninth
inning capped a three-run rally for
Cleveland.
“I usually hit the ball where it is
pitched and most clubs pitch me
inside,” added Hargrove. “I have
an inside-out swing and it took
over on that fastball inside in the
ninth.”
A two-run, bases-loaded single
by Johnny Grubb in the third and
a single tally in the second gave
Texas starter John Matlack a 3-0
lead before the Indians scored an
unearned run in the fifth and
chased the Ranger left-hander in
the eighth.
But reliever Jim Kern walked
the first two Cleveland batters in
the ninth and departed in favor of
lefty and loser John Henry John
son, 0-1. Johnson got pinch-hitter
Miguel Dilone to pop out, but
Bannister singled home pinch
runner Jerry Dybzinski and Rick
Manning scored the tying run on
Jorge Orta’s sacrifice fly. Har
grove then banged out his first
game-winning hit of the season.
“Bases on balls will kill you,”
said Texas manager Don Zimmer.
“They always seem to get home.”

HOUSTON — Houston Astros
pitcher Bob Knepper, acquired
from San Francisco last year,
didn’t speak too highly about the
city of hills and cable cars.
“I think it’s a little early,” to
judge his trade from San Francisco
to Houston, said Knepper, 2-0.
But then he said: “The biggest
thing is now I feel like baseball is a
lot of fun.
“In San Francisco, the only way
I can describe it is like working in a
coal mine with a dirty scarf over
your mouth. You can’t breathe.”
Knepper pitched his second
consecutive shutout Sunday,
enabling the Houston Astros to
break a four-game losing streak
with a 1-0 victory over the Cincin
nati Reds.
Denny Walling led off the the
first inning with a home run in the
Houston game and Knepper scat
tered eight hits, walked one and
struck out three in besting Mario
Soto.
Speaking of his former San
Francisco team officials, howev
er, Knepper said: “I don’t think
they gave up on me as much as I
pitched myself into mediocrity.
They made a good trade for them
selves.”
The Houston pitcher said he
was nervous during the game
against Cincinnati. “I don’t really
know why, but I was very nervous
today,” he said. “The butterflies
were really fluttering. I think
there was more pressure to prove
to myself that I’m worthy to be on
a team like this.”
