Had no idea the connection to ex-Royals Pete LaCock who I really only remember from the early video game Micro League Baseball that i think I had on the first computer we owned.

Pete LaCock was a baseball player and not a male porn actor?

I recall him wearing a Royals warm-up jacket on Hollywood Squares, when he explained that his son was Pete LaCock. That might have been around playoffs time, maybe 1978. LaCock played 2 games in the 1977 ALCS and 4 games in the 1978 ALCS.

There was once a question on Hollywood Squares that went something like this:
Are people more successful when they have an uncommon name? I don’t remember the answer, but I do remember Peter Marshall signed off at the end of the segment by saying “I don’t know if it’s true but (in a beautiful French accent) this “Ralph Pierre LaCOCK” signing off. |
