I J The Texas A&M baseball team swept a doubleheader from Oklahoma City University Tuesday night, winning 3-2 and 7-l. In the first game, relief pitcher Beje Mahoe recorded his second win of the year after replacing starter Chris Hu- chingson in the sixth inning. Huchingson allowed only two Chief runners to score — both in the second inning. The Aggies then tied the game with two runs in the sixth. In the bottom of the seventh, second baseman Todd Edwards won the game for the Aggies with an RBI that scored Bubba Jackson. The Aggies swamped the Chiefs early in the second game, scoring four runs in the first inning. Pat James knocked in three runs with a triple to right field during that inning. Phillip Taylor pitched for five innings and gave up only one hit — a double in the fifth inning. Rock King was called; t from the bullpen to work the - * last few innings for the Aggies. I ; Taylor picked up the win and is! * now 2-1 on the season. Texas A&M improved its re- * ; cord to 25-6, while Oklahoma City fell to 17-14. The Aggies complete their;;* three-game series with the - J Chiefs tonight with a single game beginning at 3 p.m. at Ol sen Field. 2 Astros' Richards gives up, can't overcome stroke United Press International J. R. Richard, once considered one of the brightest young pitching prospects in baseball, hung up his uniform Tuesday for the last time. The 6-foot 8-inch Houston Astros’ right hander, who led the major leagues with 313 strikeouts in 1979 and had a 107-71 lifetime record, gave up after four agonizing years of treatment and hope. Houston Astros’ owner John McMullen said Richard, who still suffers the effects of the stroke, will leave baseball and enter an other field of work. The pitcher was not avail able for comment. “The situation and circumstances have just not worked out the way everyone had hoped,” McMullen said. “In recent days we have had lengthy discussions with both J.R. and his agent, Tom Reich, and it is now felt it is in J.R.’s best interests that he pursue a career other than baseball. “It was a tough decision for J.R. to make, but it is his desire to now channel his energies in other directions.” He was selected for the 1980 National League All-Star team and pitched two perfect innings as the starter despite having com plained for several weeks prior to it of a lack of blood circulation in his right arm. Three weeks after the All-Star Game he suffered dizziness on the mound and took a week off. He was given a “presidential wor kup” physical examination and allowed to be gin limited throwing in workouts. During a workout July 30 in the Astrodome, he col lapsed and was rushed to a hospital. A life-saving operation that night removed a blood clot from his shoulder. Doctors said he had had no blood flow to his brain for at least four hours prior to surgery. Richard suffered partial paralysis of his left side as a result, and dedicated rehabiliation al lowed him in 1982 to pitch in the minor leagues. He underwent two other operations to allow him to pitch, one to place an artery from his leg into his right shoulder and a sec ond to replace a collapsed shoulder artery with an artificial graft.
