Bryan, Texas By GARY ROLLINS Battalion Sports Editor The baseball game with the Uni versity of Houston scheduled for yesterday afternoon was called be cause of a wet playing field, and has been rescheduled for this af ternoon. However, the ashen gray clouds continued to soak the diamond with moisture, and the “reschedul ed” contest was called off shortly after the first announcement. And so, Mother Nature has ham pered the Texas Aggies for the time being, with the next schedul ed game to be with Baylor Univer sity Friday afternoon at 3 on Kyle Field. The Cadets have gotten off to a good start in their 1958 cam paign, winning four of the five games they have played. With a starting sophomore infield unit, the Cadets have been fairly water tight in their defense, yielding but six errors. As far as runs actually crossing the plate, they have al lowed but six runs in the five con tests. The pitching has been good, with a comparison of 40 strikeouts to 29 bases on balls. Hits by oppon ents have been rather scarce also, as the five Aggie hurlers have al lowed but 19 safeties in 45 innings. There has been one no-hitter and one two-hitter twirled by Cadet pitchers. On the power of the column, hefty Gary Herrington leads the A&M hitting pai’ade with a lusty .643 batting avei'age, tallying three doubles, one triple, one round-trip per— the only one for the team— and four singles.

Scoring for the Aggies were Jai me Quesada and Gustavo Gamero, both of whom were thrown off the field later in the game by the referee, a San Antonio League of ficial. Carried unconscious to the hos pital was Aggie Carlos Salinas, star A&M center forward. Salinas was injured in one of the first scenes of violence which marred the game. A&M Captain Nick Hopkins had this to say about the outbursts: “The San Antonio League has long been known for unnecessary rough play, and the referee, being from San Antonio, called by their rules. “The Aggies play with tricky ball handling and very little body con tact, and that’s the kind of play we’re used to in the Houston As sociation. We tried to play that way Sunday, but after you’ve been apparently pushed, tripped and kicked intentionally a few times and the referee refuses to restrain the rough play, your temper be gins to wear a little thin. I don’t think our boys started anything; they just got blamed for it.” The tie will be played off in an other game that has not yet been scheduled.
