KC's fans torn twixt Bo boo KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -One sign declared in bold, hand-lettered type, "Boo Jackson," and 39,000 people did on Thursday night at first. But many of those people later stood to cheer Bo Jackson. By the end of the night, Royals Stadium seemed brimming with men and women trying to do both at once. Jackson, athlete extraordinaire, has Kansas City in a tizzy.

The city loved Bo when the 1985 Heisman Trophy winner spurned football's millions to pursue baseball, which he called his "first love," and sign with the Royals. As a diamond-in-the-rough outfield prospect, he has already hit the longest homer in the history of Royals Stadium and tied a team record by hitting a three-run homer and a grand slam in one spectacular night. But to be a true Kansas City sports fans is also to hate the National Football League's Los Angeles Raiders. Al Davis' team always has been the archest of the Chiefs' archrivals. Last week Jackson announced he will spend the off-season as a Raiders running back.

He insisted his still-developing baseball skills will continue to have top priority. Nevertheless, the rookie left-fielder expected a hostile reception Thursday when he played his first home game since signing with the Raiders. When Jackson came to the plate to face Baltimore's Mike Boddick-er, he received what many believe was the most derisive greeting a Kansas City crowd has ever given a Royals player. Dozens of toy footballs inscribed, "It's a hobby," the words he'd used to describe his foray into pro football, came flying onto the field. Another fan's confiscated sign made reference to a Chiefs linebacker: "Dino Hackett's new hobby is Bo hunting." The boos reached their high-point in the third inning when Jackson struck out on a bad pitch.

In the fifth the mood of the crowd took a drastic turn. Cal Ripken Jr. hit a sinking liner to left-center and made a diving, tumbling, head-over-heels catch LITTLE FALLS Luc Berube and Tom Weeks had three RBI apiece last night to lead the Oneon-ta Yankees to a 7-3 New York-Penn Leage victory over Little Falls, ending the Mets' four-game winning streak. Berube staked Oneonta to a 2-0 lead on a first-inning RBI single and a third-inning sacrifice fly. The O-Yanks broke open a 2-1 game with a five-run seventh inning.

Berube's RBI single chased starter Mike Miller (0-2) with one out. The next batter, Weeks, Williams said Thursday night that his deceased friend, Jim West, "was like a brother to me." Third base coach Ozzie Virgil managed in Williams' absence. Moves The Baltimore Orioles reactivated pitcher Mike Flanagan, who has been on a rehabilitation assignment in the International League, and scheduled him to start today's game against the Royals. Flanagan, 35, who had no record with a 3.00 earned-run-average at Rochester in three starts, went on f. 1 -m Wnlfflfapk if Rangers' 1 -inning offense tops Liverpool Brian Jester, Bryan Williams and Dan Brinsko had two RBI apiece in the sixth inning to give the Broome Rangers a 6-3 victory over the Liverpool Merchants in a Northeastern Collegiate Baseball League game yesterday at Broome Community College.

Held to two hits by losing pitcher Mike Farrell over the first five innings and trailing, 2-0, Broome (15-14) combined three hits with two walks, an error and a hit batter to score six times in the sixth. Jester tripled with one out to score Shaun Sanderson and Greg Prusia. Don Cuchran was hit by Farrell and Kenn Blair walked to load the bases. Williams gave Broome a 4-2 lead when he doubled home Jester and Cuchran. Brinsko followed with a two-run single.

Winner Mike Lynch (2-0) pitched his second complete game in six starts this season, striking out nine and walking six. He leads the Rangers with 37 strikeouts. Jamie Cassady's leadoff homer helped Liverpool (11-17) score twice in the third. Lynch, who threw 149 pitches, prevented further damage in that inning when he struck out Steve Cicci with bases loaded.

"As far as the fans who are out there booing and saying negative things, the way I feel is they're jealous. I guess they don't have anything else better to do." Many Kansas City residents would differ. "The Raiders, of all people," said Royals fan Joe Fisher.

"That's the worst team in the league he could go to. If he had to go to some team in the NFL, I would prefer he go to the Chiefs. The Raiders are the worst team in the world he could go to."

Jackson also made the third out of the inning, racing to the wall to snare a drive by Ray Knight. As he ran off the field, most of the capacity crowd seemed to stand and cheer.

Suddenly, one of the toy footballs came flying out and the crowd roared even louder as Jackson grabbed it and flung it to the ground. "Fans are fickle," Jackson said after going hitless in the Royals' 5-4 loss. "But I'm not out there to listen to criticism or to listen to boos." He insisted the taunts and jeers did not bother him.
