I was surprised when I hit it out and we won 6-5 in eight innings.” Despite her recent success. Field said she always needs to improve her game. “I’m never satis fied with my game,” Field said. “I could throw a no-hitter and still want a bet ter game.” Field said her goals at this point in the season are to learn from the inconsistency of this season and apply it to next year. “I just want to get through it,” Field said. “I want to be able to look back and say it was a learning experience. Next year. I’ll know different things.” Texas A&M softball coach Bob Brock said Field’s determination to win has contributed to her success in all areas of her game. “I think Erin is a good, quality player,” Brock said. “She has a good attitude and work ethic.” Brock said Field’s recent grand slam against South Carolina is directly related to her desire to win. “She has stepped it up,” Brock said. “Her experience playing out on the West Coast has contributed to her success here.” The success be hind her pitching comes from a former Texas A&M All- American pitcher Shawn Andaya who is an assistant coach. “Shawn Andaya helps me,” Field said. “She makes me think that I can throw any pitch.” Erin said it is her experience with pitch ing that helps her hitting game. “I love to hit,” Field said. “I know how the pitchers think, so I know how they will throw.” "I could throw a no-hitter and still want a better game." —junior Erin Field Stockton sends Jazz over Rockets Baseball Continued from Page 11 always a packed house,” John son said. “I don’t think their fans will make a whole lot of difference, but playing on the turf might be tougher and could make the difference.” The turf fields have given the Aggies problems this season. In the Winn-Dixie Showdown in New Orleans, A&M went 0-3 on the turf surface inside of the Louisiana Superdome. Johnson said Tuesday that the game on Friday will be spe cial because the seniors on the team will be recognized at the final home game of the regular season. Johnson also said he would be disappointed if there were not over 7,000 people at tending at Olsen Friday. “Texas has got to play well this weekend, and of course, all of us have to,” Johnson said. “There is not that much in the standings that separates them from us. This will be their final three ballgames and so they have to make 'something hap pen. We can’t afford to stumble if we want to win the champi onship.” The games on Friday and Saturday will begin at 7 p.m. and the game on Sunday starts at 2 p.m. Both games in Austin will be televised by Prime Sports Network. □ The jazz guard's layup with 2.4 seconds offsets Hakeem Olaju- won's 45 points. SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — John Stockton’s drive with 2.4 seconds left gave the Utah Jazz a 102-100 victory over the Houston Rockets on Thursday night in the opener of their playoff series. Stockton, who finished with 28 points and 10 assists, slashed in from the top of the key and among four Rockets □ All is not well for the Rangers as many fans stay away and those who go boo the players. ^ ARLINGTON (AP) — Kevin Gross got battered and booed in his American League debut. Fans booed Will Clark, too — even after he homered in the Rangers’ home opener. “You never expect to get booed at home. You do at Yan kee Stadium, but not here,” Clark said Thursday night after when he made the layup. Ver non Maxwell’s missed a long 3- point attempt at the buzzer. Hakeem Olajuwon had 45 points to lead the Rockets in their first playoff game since winning the NBA champi onship last season. The Rockets tied it for the eighth time in the final quarter at 100-100 on a 16-foot side jumper by Kenny Smith with 16 seconds to go. The victory was Utah’s third in eight days against Houston and it was by far the closest. The two Midwest Division opponents play Game 2 Saturday night in the Indians beat Texas 11-6 be fore the Rangers’ smallest home opening crowd in a decade. Paul Sorrento, Albert Belle, Eddie Murray, Manny Ramirez and Carlos Baerga homered for Cleveland before 32,161 at the Ballpark in Arlington. Last year, the Rangers drew 46,056 for their first regular-season game in the new stadium. It was the lowest opening attendance in Texas since 27,163 fans showed up in 1985. “People had things to get off their chests,” said Clark, booed as he rounded the bases follow ing a 407-foot homer in the Salt Lake City before going to Houston for two games. A jumper by Olajuwon with 1:40 remaining gave the Rock ets their last lead, 98-96. Fol lowing a steal by Stockton, Jeff Homacek hit a 3-pointer to give Utah a one-point lead. When Clyde Drexler missed a spinning jumper, Karl Mal one was fouled getting the re bound. Malone, who finished with 25 points, made one of two foul shots to give Utah a 100-98 lead with 36 seconds to go. Smith finished with 14 for Houston, while Robert Horry had 13 and Pete Chilcutt 12. fourth. “I hope now that it hap pened we can get back to base ball. The fans who stayed late were great and had some en couraging words for us.’ Replacement umpire Darrel Mason caused a stir, ejecting Cleveland pitcher Dennis Cook in the eighth after Rusty Greer hit a ball down the left-field line for a two-run homer. Cook ar gued the ball was foul. “I never made contact with the umpire and I don’t know if he had a quick trigger or not be cause I’ve never been thrown out of a game before,” Cook said. “I’m trying to make a living.” Rangers booed while Indians win research abroad for grad students and graduating seniors Informalional Mon., May 1 3:45 PM lues..
