Aggies schedule
intrasquad game
By Doug Puentes
THE BATTALION
The Texas A&M baseball
team’s fall practice schedule
reaches its culmination this
weekend as they play the Fall
World Series.
The Aggies have been prac
ticing together for about eight
weeks, with the first four weeks
focused on individual workouts
as per NCAA rules.
"We do play intrasquad
games in the fall,” said A&M
baseball coach Mark Johnson.
“But this [World Series] is a lit
tle more on the intense side. We
name an MVP for best hitter and
things like that. Our emphasis is
to build up to the World Series.
It’s another step up.”
The two teams, the Dirtbags
and the War Eagles, were chosen
by the coaches in a draft.
The Dirtbags will be coached
by David Coleman and will be
led on the mound by sophomore
pitchers Matt Farnum, Justin
Moore and Kyle Parcus. In the
field, the Dirtbags will be led by
junior outfielder Eric Reed, sen
ior shortstop Ryan Wardinsky
and senior second baseman Ty
Garner. The Dirtbags also will
have freshman outfielder Coby
Mavroulis, who has impressed
Johnson so far this fall.
The War Eagles will be
coached by Travis Walden and
will be led on the mound by jun
ior Steven Ponder and sophomore
Robert Ramsey. On the field,
sophomore catcher Rusty Meyer,
junior first baseman Travis Wong
and sophomore infielder Erik
Schindewolf will play.
"Rusty Meyer really got our
attention this fall,” Johnson said.
“He’s been a really good catch-
throw guy and has really shut
down running game. Travis
Wong has hit the ball well. Not a
lot of home runs, which is some
thing we’ve tried to work on, but
he has had a good fall.
“Ty Garner and Erik
Schindewolf have hit the ball
well and either could play sec
ond or third. Ryan Wardinsky
has had a good fall, probably
the best fall he’s had.”
Johnson is hoping to find
three top starters that separate
themselves from the pack, but his
efforts will be somewhat ham
pered by an injury this weekend.
Juniors Khalid Ballouli and
Todd Deininger will not throw
this because of to injuries.
Ballouli, who was in line to be
the Friday night starter last sea
son, is still recovering from sur
gery and Deininger is suffering
from elbow problems.
“We need to get three con
stant top pitchers,” Johnson said.
“There’s not as much separation
as I would like. We have quite a
few good pitchers. Eve said that
our No. 8 pitcher now is the best
No. 8 pitcher I’ve had. But we
don’t have a guy like a Possum
or a Granger. We do have guys
that can keep us in ball games.”
Junior outfielder David
Evans will also not be able to go
because he is still recovering
from shoulder surgery.
The series starts Thursday at
Olsen Field at 5 p.m. with a
doubleheader.
On Friday, there will be anoth
er doubleheader starting at 5 p.m.,
with the series ending on Sunday
with a single game at 2 p.m.
