Aggies' bats wake up
when they Tiif home
By MARYBETH ROHSNER
Sports Writer
There’s no place like home.
If you don’t believe it, ask the
Texas A&M women’s softball team.
The Aggies defeated Missouri
twice Tuesday night in the first two
home games of the spring season af
ter returning from a 10-day road
trip to California and Oklahoma.
The Aggies (19-6) squeaked by
Missouri in the first game of the
double-header by a score of 2-1, but
the action started in the second
game when the Ags shut out the Ti
gers 9-0.
“We finally saw the team do some
hitting,” said A&M Coach Bob
Brock. “We had a real problem with
hitting last week.”
In last week’s Oklahoma Tourna
ment, the Aggies left 17 base run
ners stranded in a 1-0 loss to Mis
souri. But last night’s rematch
boosted the team’s batting average,
not to mention its confidence at tne
plate. Rochelle Friudenburg had the
big bat for the Ags in the second
game.
“Rochelle’s triple was the big blow
of the game,” Brock said. “Any triple
with the bases loaded is great. This is
Rochelle’s comeback year. I’m really
pleased with her.”
Brock said he was concerned that
the team was still tired from last
week’s traveling.
“I was very nervous about to
night’s game,” Brock said. “We
didn’t really practice — we just hit.”
The Ags’ lack of practice wasn’t
obvious. They had no errors in ei
ther game while Missouri’s errors
worked in A&M’s favor.
A&M’s pitching, though not up to
last week’s standards, still managed
to stump Missouri. Sophomore
Shawn Andaya pitched five strike
outs, gave up four hits and had two
walks in the first game. However,
that performance didn’t compare to
the 17-strikeout game she recorded
last week.
Andaya’s failure to repeat that
type of solid pitching effort could be
attributed to an injury she suffered
in the fourth inning.
Andaya was spiked in the knee
when a Missouri player slid into
home plate. Still, Andaya managed
to finish the game and record the

Texas A&M pitcher Shawn Andaya (8) eyes the strike zoneas
she lets her fastball fly during the first game of Tuesday’s
double-header with Missouri at the Southwood Athletic Park.
The Aggies swept both games from the Tigers, 2-1 and 9-0.
Senior pitcher Yvette Lopez al
lowed only one hit and one walk in
the second game.
“All in all, I’d say the girls did real
well tonight,” Brock said. “We got to
do some substituting in the second
game and the players who came in
did a good job. It shows how mi
strength we have."
Brock said the team still needs
rest from last week’s grueling ra
trip.
