Billy Sample singled off Bob icey, 0-1, and Parrish hit his th homer of the year, making a nner of Victor Cruz, 1-3. Itwa* Parrish’s 16th game-winning hit of the season. It was California’s eigTith loss in its last nine games. Juan Beniquez’s two-run single with the bases loaded and nobody out in the seventh put California ahead 6-5. Singles by pinch hitter Rod Carew and Brian Downing and a walk to Rob Wilfong loaded the bases for Beniquez in the seventh. Mike O’Berry and Beniquez each had had RBI singles to start the Angels’ comeback in the third. Then O’Berry smashed a two-run homer with two out in the fourth, his first homer since 1979. Pete O’Brien’s three-run homer with two outs capped a four-run Ranger first. Astros top Cincinnati, Soto, 4-1 United Press International CINCINNATI — The Houston Astros’ pennant chances are ex tremely remote, but they kept their tbin hopes alive Sunday by beating the party-pooped Cincin nati Reds 4-1. Houston opens a 3-game series in Los Angeles Monday night and they must sweep the National League West leading Dodgers to have a chance at the division title. Cincinnati certainly wasn’t ready for the Astros Sundax The Reds, who had attended a late Saturday night party in hono’ of retiring star Johnnv Be., h, looked extremely flat. To make matters worse for Cin cinnati, ace pitcher Mario Soto, who four days ago signed a guaran teed 5-year contract worth $6 mil lion, was wild. Soto, 16-13, walked seven and yielded two home runs over seven innings to take the loss. “I don’t remember the last time I was that wild,’’ said Soto. “I was trying to hit the outside part of the plate, but I was just missing. I was wild and that was the difference. ” But virtually all the excitement at the plate was created by the Astros. Alan Ashby got Houston going in the second inning with his eighth home run of the season. The Astros came up with another run in the third on three straight singles by Bill Doran, Terry Puhl and Jerry Mumphrey. Puhl led off the fifth with another homer off Soto, who has yielded the most home runs of any Reds’ pitcher this year, 26. In the sixth, Mum phrey tripled in Puhl, who had walked. The Reds were so feeble on offense that they needed an assist from the sun to score their lone run. In the third, Gary Redus was credited with a triple on a fly ball that Jose Cruz lost in the sun. Re dus then scored on a single by Dan Driessen. Scott, 9-5, pitched the first 7 and 1-3 innings for Houston, giv ing up 5 hits, and Frank DiPino worked the final 1 and 2-3 innings, allowing just one hit and picking up his 18th save of the year.
