Well it happened Sunday when Kansas City's Tom Reyn- olds slammed an apparent ho- game tied 8-8 and the Athletics recorded a 9-8 victory over St. Louis Cardinals. The incident was so confusing that the final score at first was determined to be 10-8, It was only after a long discussion that the score was changed to 9-8. Here's what happened. The batter hitting the homer passed a runner between first and sec- ond bases, was called out im- mediately and was credited oper 4 a a a te te a rr NE Bradenton, Fla., yesterday. Cards shortstop Phil Gagli- ano takes the throw at third but too late for a double and Ken Suarez was at first when Reynolds rapped the ball toward the right field fence and started running. Charles and Suarez started running, too, but then held up when it appeared that Cardi- nals' Tito Francona might catch the ball. Reynolds didn't slow, up, though, and was 30 feet past Suarez by the time the ball skimmed over the fence. After. Charles and Suarez both crossed the plate, plate umpire Nestor Chylak signalled two runs. That's when the final score was given as 10-8. It later was 'changed under a provision that allows only the winning run to score under such an unusual set of circumstances. play. Third baseman Boyer was pulled into the infield in making the play on Hershberger's grounder. --(AP Wirephoto! Cincinatti Extends N.Y.
