Ags beat Tulane with 10-run sixth OPEN Monday through Friday 10:45 AM-1:45 PM QUALITY FIRST By FRANK L. CHRISTLIEB Battalion Staff Although the Tulane University baseball team came into Tuesday night’s Olsen Field double header with a fine . 325 team batting aver age, the Texas Aggies weren’t too impressed. And although seven of TU’s starters in the first game were hit ting above .300, the Texas A&M baseball team obviously wasn’t aware of it, or else it wouldn’t have treated the Green Wave so rpdely. §outt^estMllage Apartments That is, if a 4-3, 11-1 sweep is considered rude. The Aggies’ bats were relatively quiet in the first game, but in the sixth inning of the second game, someone must have commented about their dormancy. His plan worked, because a 1-1 tie became an 11-1 Texas A&M lead so fast that he didn’t even have a chance to retract his comment. Save $100 June, July & August when you lease for 1 year Rodney Hodde’s grand slam was only part of the sixth inning outburst which saw 13 Aggies come to the plate, and only part of a game which saw every Aggie who played score at least one run. Robert Slavens and David Flores combined to pitch a five- hitter, with Flores earning his seventh win of the season against three losses. The win was the Aggies’ seventh in a row, and their 11th win in the last 13 games. Although this series means no thing to the Aggies and their SWC tournament hopes, they played as if the green and blue uniforms of the Green Wave were really burnt orange and white, surely in anti cipation of this weekend’s all- important series with the Univer sity of Texas. In the first game. Grant Priess’ three-run homer in the fifth gave Texas A&M a 3-2 lead after TU had scored two early runs. The Aggies scored another run in the sixth to take a 4-2 lead into the final inning. TU scared Aggie re liever Perry Swanson by scoring a run to make it 4-3, but he retired the final batter with the bases loaded, earning his sixth save and giving Marvin Keller his third win in four decisions. In the second game, Billy Can non led Texas A&M with a triple and a double, while Priess had a two-run triple in the Aggies’ big sixth inning. Priess’ triple, the Aggies’ 25th of the year, set a new team record for triples in a single season, breaking the old record of 24 set in 1971. The Aggies play the Green Wave again today at 1:00 in Olsen Field.
