By GARY ROLLINS
Two stingy Aggie pitchers com
bined efforts yesterday afternoon
to fire a nifty two-hitter as the
Texas Aggies ripped Texas Luth
eran’s Bulldogs, 7-1 for their third
win against one defeat.
Percy Sanderson, soph hurler
from Nederland pitched one-hit ball
for six full innings for the Aggies,
being relieved by lanky Wayne
Schaper, who went the rest of the
route, also yielding but one hit.
The Bulldogs drew first blood in
the second inning, as second sacker
Eddie Marburger was hit by a
pitched ball and Roger Wilke tri
pled down the right field line.
Wilke slipped between third and
home and was tagged out to retire
the side.
The Aggies struck back sharply
in their half of the frame, however
and tied it up at one run apiece.
After Jim Smotherman had flied
to short left field, Ed Dudley ad
vanced to first on an error. He
stole second and third on a wild
toss from catcher. One wild pitch
later, Dudley scooted across the
dish with the tying run.
In the fifth inning, the Farmers
added an insurance run as Ralph
Plumlee singled to left. Sanderson
sacrificed him to second. J. B.
Carroll then' lofted a long fly to
right field, moving Plumlee £o
third. Houchin walked, and on the
double steal the toss to second
base was wide for the cutoff play
allowing Plumlee to score.
In the seventh inning, Wayne
Schaper reached first base on an
error. Carroll walked, moving
Schaper to second. Schaper was
called out at third on an attempted
steal. Houchin doubled down the
right field line, advancing Carroll
to third. Gary Herrington, stubby
Aggie catcher, slapped a line sin
gle to right field scoring two more
Aggie runs.
Cleanup hitter Jim Smotherman
followed up with another single,
scoring Herrington and advancing
to third on an outfielder’s bobble.
Dudley went down swinging for the
second out. Patterson drew a walk,
then leftfielder Lloyd Stone crack
ed an infield single with Smother
man scoring the fourth and final
run.
The Cadets will travel to Seguin
this Saturday night for a return
match with the Bulldogs.
