and are 4-1 in SWC play, Va game
ahead of Baylor and Texas who
have a 3-1 mark.
This afternoon on Kyle Field,
with weather permitting, the
Cadets play host to the TCU
Horned Frogs, A&M defeated the
Frogs earlier in the year at Fort
Worth, 10-5.
Through five conference games,
the Frogs have been having their
troubles, with a 1-4 record. In
season play they are 7-6.
Despite the rather mediocre sea
son record, the Frogs have some
impressive batting averages —
which means they are weak in an
other department, pitching.
In SWC competition, six TCU
starters are batting over .300 with
centerfielder Bob Bigley leading
the pack with a .471 average. Leon
Baze, TCU’s rightfielder and last
year’s SWC home run king, is hit
ting an even .400.
Rox Covert, TCU Coach Frank
Windegger’s shortstop, is hitting
.500, but he has only been to bat
twice in conference play. That one
hit was a homer against Baylor.
Others batting over the .300 mark
are second baseman David Terry,
with .333; leftfielder Jay Walrath,
with .381; and Don Reynolds, the
first sacker with .318.
Walrath is the team’s leader in
three season marks; runs with 21,
hits with 23 and RBIs with 19.
Windegger is expected to start
John Serben, a 6-4, 230-pound
junior, on the mound against the
Aggies. The 20-year-old right
hander owns a 0-1 SWC record and
is 1-1 for the season.
Aggie Coach Tom Chandler will
probably put righty Chuck McGuire
against the Frogs. McGuire is 2-1
for the season and 1-1 in confer
ence. His loss was to Baylor, 2-0.
Ace reliever Johnny Crain will be
in the bullpen if McGuire should
run into any trouble.
Although A&M’s batting aver
ages may not be too impressive,
the Aggies get the timely hits that
bring in the runs and win ball
games. Through 13 season games,
the batting leader is shortstop
Dave Johnson, who has a .421 aver
age. He also leads the team in hits
with 16, doubles with six, total
bases with 31 and RBIs with 13.
Ed Singley, a pitcher, has proved
that he can hit the ball too. He
has been to the plate 12 times and
has connected on five occasions
for a .417 average.
