Extra sod was delivered early Thursday. “It’s not as good as it was yester day,” Flynn said, helping mount a new home plate. “It’s not too bad. “But this makes me very angry.

The Astros chipped away for their runs, scoring one on a wild pitch and three others on fly outs to smother the Reds’ playoff hopes. The Astros completed a season- long domination of the Reds by tak ing their 14th victory in the 18-game series. The Astros’ victory dropped Cincinnati into third place, leaving Houston with a 9‘//-game lead over San Francisco in the NL West and reducing its magic number to eight. Right-hander Matt Keough, 4-3, and reliever Aurelio Lopez com bined on a four-hitter to lead the As tros to their second three-game sweep at Riverfront Stadium this season. Houston also took a three- game series in April. The Astros took advantage of Browning’s first-inning control problems, sending eight batters to the plate for three runs. Glenn Davis doubled home the first run, a wild pitch by Browning brought in an other, and Ashby’s sacrifice fly fin ished the scoring in the inning. Browning allowed another sacri fice fly to Ashby in the sixth, and Lopes scored the Astros’ final run in the eighth off Don Robinson on an other sacrifice fly. The Astros outscored the Reds 17-5 and outhit them 30-13 in the three-game series. don’t read this our readers are curious people. tell them about yourself. advertise in at ease 845-2611 Aggie Colt Commemorative Only 180 Produced Serial # Class Year Price TAMC 1 1985 $4,000 TAMO 35 1937 $850 TAMU 65 1988 $850 TAMU 95 1973 $850 TAMU 110 1942 $850 TAMU 145 1981 $850 TAMU 146 1982 $850 TAMU 147 1983 $850 TAMU 149 1985 $850 TAMU 156 1989 $850 This magnificant pistol features: • “Texas A&M University” “Gig ’em Aggies” with “Founded in 1876” commemorating the founding of Texas A&M University. • Complete with Deluxe Oak pre sentation case lined in maroon velvet with french fitted cast bronze A&M ring crest, and block ATM imprinted on the lid. • After seventy-five years, a proud partnership is coming to an end, both the memory of this gun will remain in the hearts and minds of thousands of Texas A&M graduates.

By the time the game started at 1:35 p.m. EDT, there were at least 20 spots in the infield where new, greener sod had been put in place. There were another 100 spots in the outfield. The Houston Astros have a com manding lead in the NL West and likely will be the Mets’ opponent in the best-of-seven series. “It felt good when we got the last out, but there were already so many people on the field, I didn’t see it,” outfielder Darryl Strawberry said. “I hadn’t seen anything like that before in my life. By the time I got to the dugout, my hat was gone.” in tfzz c/fcjyiz tzadition lines: KJOJ ylion-SDzC ji^^am-d-.OOlinz <zSat Q-.OOam-^iOOfim Cats csSsfet 20tC 845-8681 2023 TEXAS AVE.
