U SC has Aggies’ number, win Olsen opener 5-5
By DERRICK GRUBBS
The Texas A& M baseball team fi
nally got to play a game in its new $2
million stadium Tuesday and in
doing so, dropped a 5-2 decision to
nationally-ranked Southern Califor-
C.E. “Pat’ Olsen Field was offi
cially dedicated in ceremonies at
home plate preceeding the game
between the Aggies and the Tro
jans.
Pat Olsen, a 1923 graduate and
former baseball player at A&M —
the man for whom the facility is
named — threw out the first ball
from the pitcher’s mound as a high
light to the ceremonies.
The Aggies faced one of the pre
mier pitchers in college baseball in
sophomore lefthander Bill Bordley.
Bordley was 14-0 for USC as a
freshman last year to become the
first Trojan pitcher to go undefeated
in a season, a feat not even accom
plished by former USC hurlers Tom
Seaver, Bill Busby, or Bill Lee, all
of whom are now pitching in the
major leagues.
Bordley ran his 1978 season rec
ord to 4-0 in holding A&M to just
four hits through nine innings on
the mound.
The Trojans scored first on a two-
run homer by rightfielder Keith
Brown in the top of the first.
The Aggies narrowed the margin
to 2-1 in the second on a solo home
run by first baseman Kyle Hawth
orne. It was Hawthorne’s eighth
four-bagger of the season, leaving
him just one shy of the A&M school
record.
USC scored two more in the fifth
when first baseman Dave Hostetler
walked, moved to second on a fiel
der’s choice grounder by third
baseman Dave Engle, and scored on
a single by designated hitter Gerald
Price. A sacrifice fly by John Wells
scored Engle for the Trojans’ fourth
run of the day.
A&M scored its only other run in
the bottom of the fifth when leftfiel-
der Gary Bryant led off with a
single, went to second on a throwing
error by Bordley, and advanced to
third on a wild pitch. He scored
when shortstop Robert Bonner
lofted a sacrifice fly to right.
The Trojans scored the final tally
in the eighth when Wells singled,
stole second, and scored on a throw
ing error by second baseman Randy
Woodruff on an attempted doublep
lay throw to first.
Aggie starter David Pieczynski
had a shaky start as he gave up three
bases on balls and the home run in
the first inning, but settled down to
retire USC in order over the next
three innings.
He gave up two runs in the fifth,
however, which prompted A&M
coach Tom Chandler to bring in
junior Mark Ross to pitch the final
four frames.
Pieczynski got the loss, dropping
his season record to 2-3.
Bordley struck out six in record
ing his 18th consecutive win without
a loss as a Trojan.
The Aggies produced four hits,
one each by Bonner, Hawthorne,
Bryant, and third baseman Robert
Verde.
USC got only five hits off Piec
zynski and Ross, led by Brown who
was 2-for-3 including the round-
tripper in the first which was his
third of the season.
A&M drops to 16-7 on the year
while USC upped its season slate to
15-4.
This afternoon, the Aggies host
Minnesota in a 1 p.m. game, at
Olsen Field, followed by a rematch
with USC at 3 p.m.

Today’s three-team doubleheader
will be highlighted by the presence

coaches in the nation. A&M’s Tom
Chandler, USC’s Rod Dedeaux, and
Minnesota’s Dick “Chief’ Siebert
have 88 years of combined college
coaching experience between them.
All three are members of the
American Association of College
Baseball Coaches Hall of Fame.
The starting pitchers for A&M in
the twinbill will be freshmen Perry
Swanson (2-0) and Rodney Hodde
(1-1).
