Bi Bench tired of catching, wants to stay with Reds ed 87 runs, vith the hi short by an: nini-slumpi 143 average, of 74 games. United Press International CINCINNATI — Johnny Bench has proved to the baseball world he’s one of the finest catchers ever. But his problem today is proving to the Cincinnati Reds he’s also a decent infielder or outfielder. Bench, who had been considering asking the Reds to trade him after they refused to guarantee him a different position, announced Tuesday that he had decided to stay with the Reds and win a new position. Bench, who has played his entire 14-year major league career as the Reds’ catcher, said he has had it with catching and will refuse to catch any more than twice a week next season. “The mental and physical strain of catching will make you become a bartender, almost,” he chuckled. So, Bench said, he will go to spring training and try to play first or third base or left or right field. He refused to state a preference, figuring, “It’s up to the Reds to tell me what glove to bring. ” “I’m going (to spring training) with the thought of winning a job,” he said. “I still believe in myself. So, I’ve got to go after somebody and I’m afraid that’s going to happen. If I go down and take a position from somebody, that’s the way it’s got to be.” Reds’ President Dick Wagner said earlier this week he has good players at all positions and noted Bench might not be able to beat anybody out. But Bench said, “I really believe Dick Wagner wants to keep me. I think he has to realize I am somewhat of a drawing card within the National League and even in Cincinnati. “Cincinnati has really become too much a part of me for me to ask to be traded,” he added. “I value the friends I have here. I’m pleased to be a part of Cincin nati. ” Wagner has said he hopes Bench will relent and catch more than twice a week. But Bench said absolutely not. S! v HINT iE gned a three-page petition asking at Gilbert be retained and accept- gmuch of the blame for the team’s Mr record. Receiver Johnnie Moore said, “If I as coach Gilbert, I would just leave icause I don’t have anybody back- g me up. But he isn’t the one who is aying. We are. Fire us. Take our Lolarships away.” Insiders said Bourdet was under ressure to fire Gilbert because of igging attendance at a school where Jtball pays the bills of the athletic partment. Bourdet said the foot- all program could come up ,000 shy of conservative pre- lason estimates. The average attendance for Aztecs imes this year has been 28,000, own from 39,500 a year ago. Rangers get Saucier as Lyle trade-off United Press International ARLINGTON, Texas — The Texas Rangers announced Wednes day the acquisition of Philadelphia relief pitcher Kevin Saucier to com plete the Sept. 13 trade that sent pitcher Sparky Lyle to the Phillies. Saucier, who went 7-3 with Phil lies in relief, is a 24-year-old left hander with a 3.42 ERA. He permit ted 50 hits in 50 innings and col lected 25 strikeouts. Ranger executive vice president Eddie Robinson said he was pleased with the trade because Saucier “chal lenges the hitters.” “He’s a good competitor, very aggressive, and should be a valuable addition to our bullpen.” The Rangers also announced shortstop Wayne Tollesom a lefth ander who hit .250 last season, was being sent outright to the Ranger’s Charleston, W.Va., farm club. At baseball winter meetings in Dallas Dec. 6-12, the Rangers will switch their affiliation next year from the Charleston team to a Wichita, Kan. team in the American Assoca- tion. ^ Friday, Nov. 21 9 9:00 p.m. - 1:00 a.m. In advance: $3.50 At the door: $4.00 BEER/SET-UPS DANCE TO MOP ROCK Bryan, Texas Lm Battalion maitatplaceEg classifieds Call 845-2611 Aggie Keg Headquarters Day or Night. . . her image is cooly feminine.
