2 - 4 Day DeliverIbb
Saturday’s game was tied at
4-4 in the ninth inning when Ag
gie relief pitcher Jim Juhl walked
Bobby Clark and Texas pitcher
Martin Flores bunted for a base-
hit. Leadoff hitter Ken Pape ad
vanced the runners to second and
third with a sacrifice bunt. It ap
peared that the Aggies might
have worked themselves out of
a jam when Charlie Crenshaw’s
safety squeeze bunt was fielded
by Juhl and Clark was out at
the plate. A&M catcher Mike
Frazier’s tag knocked Clark un
conscious.
A&M finally knotted the game
in the eighth as Hacker walked,
went to second on a John Wood
sacrifice and scored when Frazier
singled with two outs.
Texas got two runs in the
ninth and that was the ball game.
In Friday’s doubleheader, the
Longhorns needed just one victory
to grab the title. They had to
wait till the second game.
Bobby Falcon, A&M’s ace lefty,
hurled no-hit ball until the top
of the seventh when Pape hit a
shot deep in the hole at short and
David Buxkamper’s throw was
late.

The Aggies now had two outs
and the conference’s leading hit
ter, Keith Moreland, was at bat
for the ’Horns. Juhl promptly hit
Moreland and cleanup batter Rick
Burley with successive pitches
and walked Berryhill to force in
the Texas winning tallies.
Texas jumped to an early 1-0
lead when a combination of two
singles and a wild pitch plated
Rudy Jaramillo.
The Aggies rallied for three
runs in their half of the inning
on a Jim Bratsen three-run
homer.
A&M starter Jackie Binks held
the mighty 'Horns until he walk
ed Berryhill and gave up a double
to Terry Pyka. Charlie Jenkins
was summoned from the bull pen
to put out the fire. He got Steve
Clancy on a short fly to center
but Clark smashed a 420-foot
home run and Texas had a 4-3
lead. Aggie coach Tom Chandler
then called on Clint Thomas to
get the final two outs.
A&M had a great chance to
tie the game as Mike Schraeder
led off the seventh with a triple
but three Aggie batsmen strand
ed the tying run.
“If I had been the umpire
would have called the runner
out,’’ said Texas coach Cliff Gus
tafson, who viewed the play from
his seat in the first base side
dugout.
Falcon had all the support he
needed in the third inning when
Tommy Hawthorne poled a Ron
Roznovsky pitch for a homerun.
Friday’s nightcap saw Texas
clinch the crown behind the over
powering pitching of Rick Burley.
Burley gave up only two hits and
the only Aggie run was unearned.
Texas scored in the fourth
when Pyka singled, Clancy was
hit by A&M pitcher Bobby Witt-
kamp and the runners advanced
on a sacrifice. The crowning
blow came to the Ags when Witt-
kamp got Charlie Crenshaw to
ground to third for what appear
ed an easy out only to have Sandy
Bate throw the ball away for a
two-base error.
The Aggie pitchers held More
land to 1-12 for the series as the
conference leading hitter fought
for his life.
Texas finished the season with
a 37-5 record, 14-3 in conference
play.

year,” Chandler said of the Ag-

and concern of your Creator and Savior. (3) To enjoy the bless
ings and privileges of being in Christ. (4) To find peace, fulfill
ment, and happiness in life. (5) To fulfill your responsibility
toward other men, by seeking their eternal welfare and by
setting the proper example before them. (6) To utilize properly
life with its opportunity. (7) To have hope and to give comfort
in death. (8) To be approved, accepted, and glorified in the
day of judgment. (9) To enjoy heaven and avoid hell in eternity.
