THE BATTALION
Pa^eS
Ags Face Tough Series With Baylor
With itrc hat still dofimtely
in the ring for the conference
championship, A&M’s baseball
squad attacks the Waco strong
hold of Baylor’s Bears tomor
row with renewed entlmsiasm.
“With this bunch of guys it
wouldn’t matter if we lost 30
games,” said first sacker John
Hoyle, “they’d still want to
win just as bad.”
The Aggies suffered their
first defeat of the conference
season last Saturday at the
hands of the University of
Texas, and go into the two-
game series with Baylor with
a 4-1 conference mark.
SMU pulled into a tie with
the Cadets for first in season
standings Tuesday by edging
Baylor 8-7 at Waco. Both
teams now have 10-4 records.
SMU is 6-0 in conference play.
A&M’s ace, Joe Hardgrove,
probably will face the Bruins’
Freddie Gottlieb Saturday,
with Dick Munday or Jerry
Nelson taking the hill for the
Ags tomorrow.
Munday was handicapped in
the Longhorn games last week
by a badly cut index finger on
his pitching hand. The injury
kept him from making use of
some his bettet pitches.
“It’s still pretty sore, but I
think it will be all right for
the Baylor games,” Munday
said.
The series is important to
both teams. A&M must win
to keep abreast of the fast-
moving Mustangs, and Baylor
needs at least a split to stay
in serious title contention.'
Munday has toiled 33 innings,
and given up only three earn
ed runs. He has a 3-0 record
going into the Baylor contests.
Brightest spot on the Ag
gie horizon at present is the
improvement of the team at
the plate. At least three
players, Joe Schero, Jimmy
Williams and Dick Bleckner
hoisted their averages in. the
Texas series.
