“Where the girls play”
By GARY SHERER
Texas Tech came up with three
go-ahead runs in the sixth inning
and went on to defeat the Aggies
6-4 at Travis Park Tuesday
afternoon.
Just as Monday night’s game
between the two teams ran over
three hours, this game also
topped the three-hour mark.
The loss gives the Maroon and
White a 9-6 record, while Tech
is now 4-10. The game did not
count in the Southwest Confer
ence because Tech does not com
pete in SWC baseball.
Aggie starter Walter Varvel
was staked to a 4-2 lead in the
first three innings and it looked
like enough for the former A&M
Consolidated hurler. Aggie Coach
Tom Chandler felt differently
and brought Tommy Patrick in
to pitch the fateful sixth.
Patrick was greeted with a
double by Tech centerfielder
Eldon Frost. Frost was plated
immediately on a single by
second baseman Bobby Kuehle.
Two singles and three walks came
after the back-to-back hits and
the Red Raiders had three runs
to go ahead for good.
The Aggie defense let down in
this game as they were charged
with five errors. The defense,
however, saved the Aggies in
Tech’s big inning. Two heads-up
plays by Aggie fielders cut down
Tech runners trying to go for
extra bases in the sixth inning.
Up to the sixth inning Varvel
had been effective, but had been
the victim of poor fielding by
his teammates and Tech had
shaved the Aggie lead to 4-3 with
two unearned runs. The other
Tech run came on a second-
inning homer by Tech shortstop
John McIntyre.
The Aggies had wasted no time
in scoring their first run. They
scored three unearned runs in the
first inning as Tech first base-
man Don Champion booted a two-
out, bases loaded ground ball and
let one run in. Pete Maida fol
lowed this action with a single
and two more Aggie runners
scored.
In the second inning the Aggies
scored their final run of the day
with back-to-back singles by Mike
Arrington and Chuck Malitz and
an infield out which plated
Arrington.
Tech pitcher David Callerman
then settled down and held the
Aggies to just two hits and two
walks the rest of the game. With
Callerman in control, the Aggies
could not get anything started
and went down to their fourth
home loss.

Patrick took the loss for the
Aggies, evening his record at 1-1.
First baseman Pat Rozypal, who
did not start at first base for the
Aggies, became a pitcher in this
Rozypal pitched the last three
innings and walked only two and
held Tech hitless and scoreless.
The Aggies will next be in
action over the weekend when
they will play Rice in a two-game
series in Houston. The two games
will be Friday and Saturday,
starting at 2:30 p.m.
