Pitching woes shackle A&M
Aggies look to rebound
against Mary Hardin Baylor
at Olsen Field at 7 p.m.
By Kristine Ramirez
The Battalion
The Texas A&M baseball team will
try to regroup and turn things
around at home against Mary Hardin
Baylor University tonight at 7.
The Aggies were swept by the
University of Texas Longhorns this
weekend and are 17-12 for the season
and 0-3 in Southwest Conference
play.
Head coach Mark Johnson said the
team will try to rebound against
Mary Hardin Baylor.
He said the team’s problems stem
from trying too hard and they have
to relax.
Johnson said freshman Kevin
Beirne will be the starting pitcher for
the Aggies. Beirne currently has a
5.79 ERA with an 0-1 record in four
games this season. Johnson said he’s
expecting a good game from Beirne.
He said it will give him a chance to
turn the comer and be an important
part of the pitching staff.
Shortstop Robert Harris, currendy
leading the team with a .382 batting
average, said the team is looking for
ward to the game. He said the team
needs to get on a roll and have a
good game.
“We need to take out some of our
frustrations on Mary Hardin Baylor,’’
Harris said.
Third Baseman Lee Fedora, second
on the team with a .365 BA, said the
team is ready to play. Fedora said
Mary Hardin Baylor will come in and
try to get the Aggies while they are
down.
"They are going to play one of
their best games against us,” Fedora
said.
Fedora said the team needs to re
group and concentrate on the rest of
the season. He said every team goes
through a slump and it separates
good teams from the bad.
“Good teams will pull out of it.
We have to stay together and play
hard,” Fedora said.
Johnson said the Aggies have their
work cut out for them but they are
still is in the SWC race. He said the
team will have to work on winning
the 15 conference games left.
A&M swim teams
sprint to success

The Texas A&M Men’s swimming team will try to end their 1993-
94 season on an high note as they travel to Minneapolis to compete in
the 1994 NCAA Championships which will be held March 24-26.
The men’s team will be represented in the Championships by fresh
man Robb Pantano, juniors Rich Nolte and Diego Perdomo and senior
Matt Michaels.
Michaels, who will swim in the 50-yard freestyle and the 100-yard
breast stroke, in addition to all the relays, said that the team has clear-
cut goals heading into this weekend’s competition.
“We’d like to place in the top eight in the 200-yard medley relay,
and with all the other events combined, try to break into the top
20 (teams).”
Last season, the men’s team finished tied for 29th place in the
NCAA Championships.
Michaels, the lone senior competing for the men’s team, said he
hopes to do well in what will most likely be his final competition.
Despite being a senior, this is only Michaels’ second full year on

SARASOTA, Fla. - Michael
Jordan thought about that dent
ed, old school bus parked in
front of the Chicago White Sox
complex, the one with tattered
seat covers, chipped white paint
and two cracked windows, and
looked concerned.
"I don't have to ride in that
bus, do I?” he asked.
The Chicago White Sox
made it official Monday, reas
signing him to their minor-
league camp. After a week, gen
eral manager Ron Schueler
hopes to have an idea where the
31-year-old rookie will start the
season.
"More or less, it's something
I need to improve my skills,"
Jordan said. "It doesn't bother
me personally. I don't think like
I failed at anything."
Jordan, the three-time NBA
MVP, was 3-for-20 in 13 spring
games for the White Sox with
four walks.
He drove in two runs, scored
four and struck out four times.
He hit the ball out of the infield
just twice; two of his hits were
knocked down by third base-
men.
Jordan went right to work af
ter being sent down, beginning
his minor-league career with an
RBI single for Prince William in
a Class A game against Balti
more's Frederick team.
He went l-for-4, dropped an
easy fly to right and got turned
around on another catchable
ball.
Jordan was given the day off
Tuesday, may play for Triple-A
Nashville on Wednesday and
might work out with Double-A
Birmingham later this week.
