Both clubs are sound squads, although the Astros could use a little more offensive punch, and the Rangers could afford a sound starting pitcher or three. But instead of having to im prove themselves to the talent lev el of the White Sox, Braves and Giants, the two Texas teams have simply allowed themselves to be transplanted to new divisions, where both have been preseason picks for top honors. For the Astros, gone are the 100-game winning Braves and Gi ants; in are the rebuilding Pirates and the ultimate losers, the Chica go Cubs. The Rangers are in even better shape, dumping the powerhouse White Sox and the contending Royals, while keeping the not-so- powerful Angels and A’s. For the Astros, this is year four of the rebuilding process that saw the team start youngsters Jeff Bag- well, Steve Finley, Craig Biggio and Luis Gonzalez on a daily basis in 1991. Each year since, a couple of holes have been filled each year, a Darryl Kile here and an Andjuar Cedeno there, throw in a couple of free agents, and suddenly the Astros are prime contenders in the new National League-Central. The Rangers appear to be con tent with bashing holes in their opponents’ pitching staffs this year. And if you had a line-up sport ing Will Clark, Dean Palmer, Jose Canseco and demigod Juan Gon zalez, you would probably feel the same way. The Seattle Mariners could pre sent a problem for the Rangers, with tneir balanced attack of pitching and offense, but if Gon zalez stays healthy, he may put the Rangers on his back ana carry them into the post-season. So it’s come time to makepte-l dictions, and I’ll throw myseli’l right hack out on that proverbijll limb. The time for Texas is now, lsi) | Astros and Rangers in the Worlc Series. End of story. Well, not really. I called toil 1 a holiday, and for me it is. As you read this, 1 am motel than likely sitting in the As trodome rooting forthehomei team.

Surprise Continued from Page 5 Clemons then walked the next batter to load the bases with two three runs of their own in the bottom of the fourth howev er, bringing the crowd back into the outs. In came senior righthander Matt Sherwood, who had a season earned run average of 6.33 going into the game. Sherwood overpowered the Cougars, striking out UH’s Chris Scott to end the third inning, then proceeding to pitch perfectly for the next five innings, retiring 16 straight Cougars, striking out a to tal of five and picking up the win. Following the doubleheader, Sherwood said he was pleased with both his and the team’s per- . formancesi “It was my best outing of the year, I had a good rhythm going, Sherwood said. “It’s always good when you get wins. “We wanted the sweep, but we felt good (winning the series).” The Aggies’ opportunity for a sweep was thwarted in Saturday’s second game by another shaky starting job and errors in the field. The Cougars jumped out to an early three run lead in the third inning against A&M starter Ryan Rupe who lasted only two and one-third innings, before giving away to reliever Chad Allen. The Aggies fought back with game on a two-run home run by short stop Robert Harris off the scoreboard, Harris’ second home run of the weekend. The momentum shift was short-lived however, as the Cougars scored two runs in the sixth with the help of three A&M errors, then added three in surance runs in the top of the seventh, helped out by anoth- er Aggie error, a hit- batsman and a two- run triple by desig nated hitter Tom Maleski. Coach Johnson said the Aggies’ fielding woes were a tough pill for him to swallow. “We were defen sively disappointing, but we’re a good de fensive team in prac tice, “ Johnson said. “We don’t seem to he able to handle the pressure in games.” A&M will return to action Tues- ■ • :. - , tL-‘ Roger f Isieh/ The Battalion Ryan Rupe warms up before A&M's second game against UH.
