THE BATTALION
Farmers Tie, Drop
Game to TCU Frogs
The Texas Christian Horned
Frogs shelled two Aggie pitchers
for 14 hits and an 11-5 Southwest
Conference baseball victory on
Kyle Field Saturday after the two
teams fought to a 9-9 deadlock in
a Friday contest.
The first game was called be
cause of darkness and will not be
replayed because it has no bearing
on the championship.
The Aggies jumped off to an
8-2 lead after four innings of play
but the Frogs pecked away and
finally tied it up in the 9th on
Jimmy Walker’s two-run homer to
left. - i
Each team used three pitchers
with David Pitcock working the
final four for A&M and giving
up the tying runs. Charles Ruther
ford pitched shutout ball for three
innings at the finish.
Homers Plentiful
Byron Barber and Dink Patter
son each homered for the Aggies
but Walker’s blow was the big one
that kept TCU from getting beat.
A&M almost won it in the bot
tom of the 9th after Rutherford
walked two batters with two out.
Pitcock then hit a shot toward the
hole between first and second that

probably would have scored J. B.
Carroll from second but the ball
hit baserunner Randy Wortham on
the arm for the automatic third
out.
In the second game the Frogs
jumped on starter Olen Jordan
for seven runs on nine hits in the
first three innings and the Aggies
were too far back to catch up
even though Aggie outfielder
Barber hit two homeruns, his
fourth and fifth of the season in
conference play.
Frog Relief Made Difference
Fine relief work for the final
five innings by Rutherford con
tributed to the TCU win and gave
the big righthander the victory.
Darrel Read worked the first four
innings for the winners.
Dick Hickerson, sometime first-
sacker for the Aggies, came on in
relief of Jordan in the third but
had faulty fielding behind him. He
gave up five more hits and four
runs but only one of them was
earned.
Shortstop George Banda paced
TCU with four hits in four trips
while three other Froggies had
two hits each. Cliff Justice hit a
two-run homer for TCU in the
fourth.
