Lopez Battalion Staff Pitching made the difference Sunday as the Texas Aggies split a double-header with TCU in Olsen Field, losing the first game 8-6 and winning the second game 13-5. In the first game, Texas A&M outhit the Horned Frogs 9-7, but TCU was aided by nine walks given up by four Aggie pitchers. “The bases on balls killed us,” Head Coach Tom Chandler said after the game. “Any time you score six runs in a seven-inning game you usually win, but the walks really hurt us,” he said. Two of those nine walks were given up by starting pitcher Phil lip Taylor in the top of the first inning. Taylor was relieved in that inning after also giving up three hits and four runs. “I don’t think Taylor warmed up enough,” Chandler said. Sherman Corbett, who re lieved Taylor, did no better, giv ing up four runs in the third inning on two hits and three walks. Corbett was relieved in the fifth inning by Gerry Salinas, who combined with Rock King to keep the Horned Frogs score less the rest of the game. Texas A&M scored two of its runs in the third inning when Ronnie Risinger reached first on a fielder’s choice, Dave Kennard walked and Grant Priess hit a line-drive single to right field. In the fifth inning, the Aggies scored four more runs when Bobby Beach walked and was brought in on a single by Kevin Smith. Brad Hisle and Kennard then drew walks to load the bases. Priess then singled to bring in Smith and Hisle, and Joe Szekely singled in Kennard. Those four runs narrowed the TCU lead to only two but the Aggies fell short in their com- Willie Maxwell eback y when Buddy Haney struck out with two men on and two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning. Chris Leiss was the winning pitcher for the Horned Frogs while Taylor took the loss for the Aggies. In the second gannj, David Flores held the Horned Frogs to five runs on eight hits in throw ing his first complete game of the year. “Better pitching made the dif ference in the second game,” Dave Kennard Chandler said. “David did a real good job.” TCU coach Willie Maxwell also credited Flores for pitching well. “He showed a lot of poise going the distance,” he said. “He seemed to get stronger as the game wore on.” Flores was aided by strong hit ting by his teammates, as every player in the starting lineup had at least one hit. Texas A&M compiled a total of 19 hits. Ken nard went 4-for-5, tailing just short of the Southwest Confer ence record for most hits in a single game, five. Kennard also went 2-for-4 in the first game and scored a total of five runs in both games. The losing pitcher for the Horned Frogs in the second game was David Shelburn, who gave up seven runs to the Aggies in the first two innings. The Aggies and the Horned Frogs played five innings of a game on Friday but the game was called because of rain with the score tied at seven. The game will not count in the SWC standings but will count in each team’s statistics. The double-header played Sunday was originally scheduled to be played Saturday but was postponed, also because of rain. The Aggies, now 21-8 for the season and 3-5 in the SWC, will play a double-header Tuesday afternoon at 1 against the Uni versity of Oklahoma.
