The Aggie baseball team let
loose with 21 hits, while A&M
pitchers allowed two runs in a
doubleheader sweep over Lamar
University here Tuesday, to
bring the season record to 8-4.
The Aggies won 2-1 and 6-1.
A&M never trailed in either
game, and five pitchers were
used in the sixteen innings. The
Cardinals hit safely 12 times in
the twinbill.
Jackie Binks was the winner in
the first contest, going five in
nings and yielding four hits in
blanking the Redbirds. The soph
omore southpaw struck out three
and did not walk a batter. He
was relieved by Bobby Wittkamp,
who gave up one run and three
door hear-
lice were

hits.
The Aggies got their two runs
in the third inning. With one
out, Binks reached first on a mis-
played ground ball, taking sec
ond as a result of the error. First
baseman Butch Ghutzman drove
him home with a base hit. Jim
Atterbury forced Ghutzman at
second, but the left fielder came
home on R. J. Englert’s fourth
triple of the season.
Lamar got a tally across in
the sixth frame when Greg Car
penter and Gary Wendlet sand
wiched singles around a pair of
fly balls, and then executed a
double steal. Carpenter scored
when Aggie shortstop Mike
Schraeder hobbled a ground ball
by Mike Kuecker.
Binks threw 49 pitches during
his five inning stint. His record
is 1-1, with Coach Tom Chandler
counting on him to work as the
third starter in conference series
behind Bruce Katt and Charles
Kelley.
In the second game, nine
strikeouts and two double plays
kept the Cardinals from capital
izing on five hits and eight walks
given up by A&M pitchers dur
ing the nine-inning affair. Eng-
lert pounded out four hits in
four times at bat to lead a bar
rage that produced base runners
in all but one inning.
Karl Bystrom stroked a pair
of doubles, while relief pitcher
Charlie Jenkins helped his own
cause with three consecutive sin
gles, as 15 A&M hits made the
going easy all the way.
Starter Steve Janda went the
first four innings, giving up one
hit. The junior right hander
walked six Cardinals and fanned
four. Jenkins came in for 4%
frames, allowing four hits and
Lamar’s only run. The right
hander struck out five and
walked two.
Jenkins made his first appear
ance of the year, having recently
completed duty with the A&M
basketball team. He was steady
until the last inning, when two
hits, a walk, a fielder’s choice
and a pair of wild pitches added
up to a run for the Redbirds.
The Aggies got on the board
early, scoring twice in the sec
ond inning on a double by Bys
trom and singles by Carroll Lilly
and Jim Langford. With Jim
Atterbury on first in the third
frame, Englert ripped a scream
ing drive down the left field line.
Atterbury scored, but Englert
was ruled out for failing to touch
second base. This made Jim
Hacker’s double a waste, as Bys
trom fanned to end the inning.
Englert drove in a man in the
fifth when Atterbury got on via
a fielder’s choice and stole sec
ond. Englert hit a single to right-
center, bringing home the fourth
A&M tally.
Bystrom doubled to left-center
to begin the sixth, taking third
on an infield out by Schraeder.
Langford lofted a sacrifice fly to
center field to score the junior
right fielder.
The seventh frame gave the
Aggies their last marker when
Jenkins singled to right. He
moved around on a wild pitch and
a base i-ap by Ghutzman to close
the run production by A&M.
