Pinch-hit double
keys Ranger win
Associated Press
SEATTLE — Pinch-hitter Bill Stein’s three-run double broke an eighth
inning tie Sunday and sent the Texas Rangers to a 5-2 victory over the
Seattle Mariners.
With one out in the eighth, Gary Ward walked and Don Slaught was hit
by a pitch. Ed Vande Berg relieved Matt Young, 12-18, and retired George
Wright on a grounder as the runners moved up.
Reliever Roy Thomas intentionally walked pinch-hitter Bobby Jones to
load the bases and then Stein, batting for pinch-hitter Oddibe McDowell,
greeted reliever Paul Mirabella with his bases-clearing double.
Reliever Greg Harris, 5-4, was the winner. Young tied a team record for
most losses in a season.
The Mariners took a 1-0 lead in the third against Matt Williams when
Jack Perconte tripled and Phil Bradley singled.
Texas scored twice in the fourth. Ward doubled, took third on a single
by Slaught and scored on a single by Curtis Wilkerson. Alan Bannister later
singled home Slaught.
Reds 5, Astros 0
CINCINNATI —Jay Tibbs threw a five-hitter and Buddy Bell drove in
a pair of runs Sunday to send the Cincinnati Reds to a 5-0 victory and a
three-game sweep of the Houston Astros.
The Reds have won four in a row and 12 of their last 14 to stay in con
tention in the National League West. The Reds went into Sunday’s game
5'/ 2 behind the Los Angeles Dodgers, whose magic number for clinching is
four.
Tibbs, 10-15, struck out seven and didn’t walk a batter to win hisTourth
straight decision. The right-hander is 6-4 since coming back up from the
minors on Aug. 1.
Tibbs pitched his second shutout and fifth complete game of the season.
He set down 11 in a row over the middle innings.

Aggies
(continued from page 11)
“The next four teams we play are
option running teams like Tulsa,”
Holland said. “This game will pre
pare us a lot for them.”
So, with all the running and
throwing, smashing and sliding,
tackling and recovering, what can
the Aggies do for an encore?
“W’e still have a couple of things
we want to do,” Sherrill said. “The
worst thing we did was kick field
goals and extra points.”
Kicker Eric Franklin missed a 24-
yard field goal and two extra points.
Midway through the second quarter,
the biggest cheer of the game from
the 44,926 in attendance came when
Franklin was replaced by Scott
Slater, who hit 3-of-3 extra points
the rest of the way.
But Sherrill said there’s no “kick
ing controversy” in Aggieland.
“Eric is a good kicker,” Sherrill
said, “and w r e certainly will go back
to him.
“But he needed to take the night
off. If he had missed another one, it
might have really snowballed in his
mind. He needed to sit down.”
And on a night where he could
have scored more extra points than
the Los Angeles Lakers.
“You guys saw that if we just exe
cute the way that we can, nobody
should be able to stop us,” Nelson
said.
“This was just the beginning,”
Murray concluded. “I’m looking for
ward to much better performances
out of myself and my teammates.”
But now any footsteps heard will
be their own.

With theTI'55'II.
What you need to tackle
the higher mathematics of a
science or engineering cur
riculum are more functions —
more functions than a simple
slide-rule calculator has.
Enter the TI-SS-II, with
112 powerful functions. You
can work faster and more
accurately with the TI-55-II,
because it’s preprogrammed
to perform complex calcula
tions — like definite integrals,
linear regression and hyper-
holies — at the touch of a
button. And it can also he
programmed to do repetitive
problems without re-entering
the entire formula.
Included is the Calculator
Decision-Making Sourcebook.
It makes the process of using
the TI-55-II even simpler,
and shows you how to use all
the power of the calculator.
