Ted Power allowed four hits in eight innings and Bill Buckner drove in three runs with a homer and a double as Kansas City defeated California and won for the ninth time in 10 games. Pioneers notebook ted .309, but returns to the New York-Pennsylvania League for a third year. Rosario, a shortstop, said Sunday that he "didn't feel that good" about being reassigned to Elmira but will "just do the job again anyway." Rosario, 20, figured to play every day last season but didn't.

He played in 45 of Elmira's 76 games. "We had other shortstops and I knew they had to have a chance, too," he said. Rosario's 21-year old brother, Victor, also a shortstop, is with the Boston Red Sox' Class AA Eastern League team in New Britain, Conn. Mickey Rivers Jr. gets a lot of publicity as the son of a major leaguer, but he's not the only '88 Pioneer with that background.

Pitcher Tim Stange, signed by Boston as a free agent, is the son of former major leaguer Lee Stange, who pitched for the Red Sox from 1966 to '70 and hurled two innings in Game 3 of the 1967 World Series. Power, 4-1, retired 20 batters in a row following Jack Howell's leadoff double in the second. He struck out six and walked none in winning his third straight game.

TIGERS 5, INDIANS 4 CLEVELAND Luis Salazar's two-run homer capped a five-run outburst in the first two innings and Detroit held on to beat Cleveland for a sweep of their four-game series. TWINS 6, MARINERS 2 SEATTLE Gary Gaetti's two-run homer sparked a five-run fifth inning and Charlie Lea allowed four hits in seven innings as Minnesota defeated Seattle. Tim Stange was just five years old when his father retired in 1970. "I have old pictures of him and newspaper clippings," he said. He also said he has a shot of himself "trying to climb the backstop at Fenway Park (in Boston)." Since his father was originally signed by the Minnesota Twins, the Stanges kept a home there during their years in Boston.

Tim spent the remainder of his youth in the Oakland area when his father landed a job as Oakland Athletics pitching coach in in 1976 after previous coaching stints with the Red Sox and Twins. Former Red Sox star third baseman Frank Malzone, now a scout and minor league instructor, doubts there's any validity to last week's Associated Press report that the Bosox were about to trade for Cincinnati Reds slugger' Eric Davis. AP reported that the Bosox would have given up veteran starting pitcher Bruce Hurst and three good young prospects first baseman Sam Horn, switch-hitting outfielder Todd Benzinger and catcher John Marzano. "I haven't heard a word about that," Malzone said. Ballesteros, Norman, Frost and Green all birdied the 18th hole at the Westchester Country Club course and completed the regulation 72 holes at 276, eight shots under par.

By ED WEAVER Senior Sports Writer The first year is difficult for most professional ballplayers, but John "Mickey" Rivers Jr.

may have an unusually difficult time. Rivers, a Boston Red Sox draft choice assigned to the Elmira Pi-. oneers, will begin switch-hitting to enhance his chances to reach the big leagues. "I've been learning to switch-: hit," said Rivers, who experi-; mented this past spring while at a cone Junior College in Muskogee, Okla. Unlike his father, longtime American League outfielder Mickey Rivers, young Rivers' natural side of the plate is the right side.

In addition to helping his major ieague chances, hitting from the left side will accentuate Rivers' outstanding speed. The 19-year-old says he won't make the switch gradually. He plans to hit left-handed against all right-handed pitchers. "It's not as hard as people "might think," he said, adding that he's having much more trouble making the adjustment from alu-' minum bats to wood.
