Pag-e 4 THE BATTALION Thursday, April 23, 1953 Tigers Win, 5-3; Third in Track The Consolidated High Tigers Tuesday defeated Somerville 5-3 in an extra-inning baseball game played in Somerville. Joe Motheral pitched the entire game for the Tigers and turned in an amazing mound performance. Motheral gave up but three hits, struck out 19' Somerville batters, walked three, and hit one batter. The contest was tied 3-3 at the end of the regulation seven inn ings, but the Tigers produced two runs in the top of the eighth inning and Somerville succumed to Moth- eral’s fine pitching in the bottom half. In the Tiger eighth, Byron An drews led off with a walk, but was forced at second by Bobby Carter on a fielder’s choice. Pinky Conner lofted a fly to right, with Carter holding first. Pete Hickman then drove a double to deep right cen ter, scoring Carter, and when the right fielder booted the ball around, Hickman kept on running and beat the thrown into home plate. Motheral fanned the first two Somerville batters to face him in the bottom of the ninth, and the third was thrown out at first. In the district track and field meet held Saturday on the A&M track, Consolidated finished third with 22 points, behind Giddings with 56 points and Bastrop with 2914 points. Dime Box and Smith- ville were fourth and fifth.
