After being swept by Rice over the weekend to fall to fourth place in the SWC, the Aggies returned to Olsen Field last night and collected their fifth consecutive Tuesday night victory over a Southland Con ference opponent with a 15-4 rout of the University of Texas San Antonio. Solid hitting and steady pitching combined with hor rendous UT-San Antonio field ing produced the easy win for the Aggies. The Roadrunners put on a clinic for infield ugli ness, committing a grand total of eight errors, not to mention two passed balls and two wild pitches. Roadrunner defensive blun ders aiding their cause or not. Aggie bats were responsible for most of the damage. Already leading 5-2 going into the bot tom of seventh inning, A&M sent 11 batters to the plate, pounded out six hits and ex ploded for seven runs. The Aggies scored three runs on RBI singles by William Shiflett and Brian Benefield before Jason Stephens launched his eighth home run of the season, a two-run shot over the left field wall to bring the score to 10-2. Stephens’ blast was followed by a single off the bat of Jeff Bailey, who came around to score on Johnny Hunter’s triple to the left-centerfield gap. Hunter scored a batter later when UT-San Antonio third baseman Steve Minus overthrew first base on Ryan Huffman’s ground ball. A&M added three more runs in the bottom of the eighth off an RBI single from Jason Tyn er and a two-run double by Sean Alvarez. A&M Head Coach Mark Johnson could not complain about his club’s 19-hit, 15 run performance. “All in all it was a good out ing for us,” Johnson said. “Of course, they helped us out a bunch, but nevertheless we knocked around the ball around well. A lot of guys got to play, and we got some pitchers in that we wanted to see work.” Sophomore right-hander John Sneed picked up his team-leading seventh win of the season after coming in to pitch in the top of the fourth inning for starter Jamie Smith. Sneed struck out five and held the Roadrunners score less on just two hits over three innings. Robert Keens and Tim Clarkson came on to close out the last three in nings for A&M. Despite seeing his starting pitcher give up solo home runs in each of the first two innings, Johnson said he was pleased with the overall performance of the Aggie pitching staff. “I thought Jamie had more rhythm than he’s had lately,” A&M 15, UTSA UT-San Antonio Texas A&M ab r h bi itlll Mott 2b 4 0 1 0 Tynerlf 5 ju Minus 3b 3 0 1 0 Benefield2b4 111 Perez cf 4 1 1 1 Stephens3b5 111 Gee 1b 4 0 1 0 Finkel ph/3b 1 111 Burton dh 3 0 0 0 Bailey 1b 5 ! 1; Herrera ph 1 0 0 0 Scheshtik IbO ) t j Pitts c 2 1 1 1 Hunter rf 5 Hi Arevalos c 0 1 0 0 Alvarez cf 1 0l| Juarez If 4 1 1 0 Huffman CW6 11: Shults ss 4 0 0 0 Leonard dh 5 Hi Wallis rf 4 0 2 2 Pelruss 4 III Burgess p 0 0 0 0 Strata 2b H!!
