J Page 12 • The Battalion Thursday • April 11,1!) Lady Aggies stay up late to sweep Bobcats Dave House, The Battalion Texas A&M leftfielder Heather Hayden slides safely into third base during action Wednesday night. Senior pitcher Erin Field won both games, pitching a combined 11 and 1/3 shutout inning Staff and Wire Reports Erin Field continued her dominating season on the mound and the Lady Ag gie Softball Team stole a page out of their Olsen Field counterparts’ book Wednesday night en route to sweeping a doubleheader against Southwest Texas State University, 6-0 and 5-4. The nightcap of the doubleheader was an 11-inning marathon that the Lady Aggies finally put away thanks to the hitting of Field and leftfielder Heather Hayden. Field went 4-for-5 in the game with a run batted in, and Hayden went 3-for-6 at the plate. After Lori Gioco pitched the first 6 and 2/3 innings for the Lady Aggies, Field entered the game and pitched the final 4 and 1/3, allowing no baserunners and striking out four Bobcats. Field’s performance was made even more amazing by the fact that she went the distance in the first game of the doubleheader, a seven-inning Lady Ag gie yawner. SWTSU’s Michelle Harrison was the hardluck loser in the nightcap. She went the distance for the Bobcats, and although she gave up 14 hits to the Lady Aggies, only three of their five runs were earned off of her. In the first game, played atthelg Softball Complex in front of a crow 150, Field simply overpowered theEi cats to guide the 16th-ranked Lady! gies to their 26th win of the year. Field pitched seven innings, allom just five hits, walked no one andstn out three while earning her 13thm the year. Two hours later, she had wonj again to move her overall season reu to 14-6. Hayden also had a hot bat in the! game, reaching base in all three oil plate appearances with two hitsari walk, along with scoring two runs,ii ving in two more and stealing a base. Also on target from the plate ini first game was catcher Marian McGuire, who went l-for-2 withtli runs batted in. The doubleheader sweep movedAi to 26-10 on the season while SWIi dropped to 10-32 overall. The Lady Aggies return to actioni weekend when they face new Big 12 ponent Nebraska in a three-game sera The matchup begins with a doui header Saturday at the Aggie Sd Complex at 12:00 and 2:00 p.m. The series finale will be played Si day at noon. NBA nails L.A.’s Van Exel with $25,000 fine He will also be suspended for seven games. MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Lay off the refs. That was the message the NBA sent Wednesday when it suspended Nick Van Exel of the Los Angeles Lakers for the final seven regular-season games and fined him a league- record $25,000 for shoving an official. “I think everybody under stands that if this happens again the penalty will be even more severe,” said Rod Thorn, the NBA’s director of league operations. Van Exel’s suspension, which began with Wednesday night’s game against the Min nesota Timberwolves, came less than a month after Chica go Bulls forward Dennis Rod- man was suspended six games and fined $20,000 for head butting a referee. Rodman’s suspension had been the third longest in NBA history for an on-court inci dent until Wednesday. “It was more than Rodman did,” Thorn said of Van Exel’s actions in Tuesday night’s loss at Denver. “Therefore, the fine was $5,000 more and one more game. I think we got Mr. Van Exel’s atten tion.” Thorn said he consid ered suspending Van Exel for the playoffs. “I think they’re sending the right message,” said Timber- wolves guard Terry Porter, an 11-year NBA veteran. “They don’t want people to feel like they can put their hands on an official and get away with it.” Van Exel traveled with the Lakers to Minnesota, but he remained at the team’s hotel during the game. He plans to discuss his suspension during a news conference at the Fo rum in Inglewood, Calif., on Thursday. Sedale Threatt started at point guard in Van Exel’s place. Coach Del Harris said Magic Johnson would not play more than his normal 20-25 minutes to help make up for Van Exel’s absence. Medical restrictions prevent Johnson, who has the virus that causes AIDS, from playing more, Har ris said. “That was imposed on us, and I don’t think this changes that,” the coach said. Harris said he had talked to Van Exel twice since the inci dent, including once Wednes day. “I think he’s totally embar rassed by now,” Harris said. “At first there was an adrena line rush, just like there is anytime you go through an emotional situation.” The league’s action will cost Van Exel about $187,000, in cluding $161,000 in pay during the suspension. It also jeopar dizes the Lakers’ playoff chances just three weeks after the team was splintered by Cedric Ceballos’ unexcused four-day absence. “It’s inexcusable,” Johnson said Tuesday night of Van Ex- el’s actions. “You just don’t do that. Now you’re going to have to sit ... the rest of the season. Just when I thought we were smart, and then wham!” The incident oc curred with 3:23 left in the Lakers’ 98-91 loss to Denver on Tuesday night. The exchange between Van Exel and referee Ron Garret- son began after a foul was called on the Nuggets’ Dale El lis. Van Exel apparently made a sarcastic remark about the call, and Garretson, after a brief conversation with Van Exel, signaled a technical dur ing a timeout. Van Exel had turned away before the technical was as sessed, and he then followed Garretson to the scorer’s table to protest. Van Exel called Garretson a “little midget” during the subsequent argu ment, and Garretson gave the second technical, which results in ejection. Spurs ’ magic number drop to one with 105-82 rout San Antonio outscored Vancouver 33-12 in a deem third quarter to drop the Grizzlies to 12-64 thisym SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Chuck Person led a balanced attack with 15 points as the San Antonio Spurs virtually clinched their fifth division title with a 105-82 rout of the Vancouver Grizzlies on Wednesday night. The Spurs (56-21) reduced to one their magic number for clinching the Midwest ti tle and the No. 2 playoff po sition in the Western Confer ence. A San Antonio victory or Utah loss will do the trick. Each team has five games re maining. The expansion Grizzlies dropped to 12-64 overall with their 27th loss in 28 games. Vinny Del Negro, Avery Johnson and Monty Williams had 14 each for San Antonio. Reserve rookie guard Lawrence Moten led the Grizzlies with 14. After a lackluster first half, the Spurs scored 15 straight points to break a SO SO tie and com pleted a 23-2 run to lead 73- 52 after eight minutes of the third quarter. Del Negro, who had two points at halftime, scored 12 points during the breakaway stretch, including consecu tive 3-pointers. San Antonio outscored the Grizzlies 33-12 in the quar ter and Vancouver missed 11 straight shots at one junc ture in the game. With San Antonio leading 83-60 after three quarters, head coach Bob Hill rested his starters in the fourth quarter. Vancouver’s Bryant Reeves missed his second straight game with a sore right knee. Spurs forward Charles Smith sat out his second straight game with back spasms. Will Perdue started in his place. Spurs center David Robin son blocked one shot, him three short of becomii the 10th player with 21 career blocks. His 3.1 blocks per game is the est career average.
