On May 17, 1978, Lacy hit his third consecutive pinch-hit home run, setting a major league record, as the Dodgers beat the Pirates, 10–1. His previous home runs were on May 2 and 6. Lacy's record was matched in 1979 by Del Unser, who hit three consecutive pinch-hit homers on June 30, July 5 and July 10.[2]
In 1985, Lacy was among a number of players caught up in the Pittsburgh drug trials scandal. The next year, he was given a 60-day suspension but was allowed to continue playing if he donated five percent of his base salary and performed 50 hours of drug-related community service.
On June 8, 1986, as a member of the Orioles, Lacy hit three home runs and had six RBI in an 18-9 win over the Yankees.
