Continued from Page 5
But this year brings a new glim
mer of hope to my favorite under
achievers, and to their neighbors
to the north, the Texas Rangers.
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.
This marks my ninth consecu
tive Opening Day appearance, and
I’m just as excited at age 20as!
was at age I 2.
Sorry,, Mom, hut you knew I ]
had tea go. Enjoy the holiday,!
know I will.

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.”
