THE BATTALION
The Texas A&M baseball team contin
ued its stretch of games against non-confer
ence opponents by going through the
motions in a 9-1 victory over the Texas
A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders on Tuesday
at Olsen Field.
The 16th-ranked Aggies took advantage
of less-than-stellar pitching by the
Islanders to take an early lead which they
held all game.
“It’s kind of hard to get an offense going
when the strikes aren’t there and the pitch
er is almost comfortably wild,” said A&M
head coach Mark Johnson. “I was pleased
though. It was kind of an uneventful thing
but it was a win.”
After a sluggish start, the A&M offense
got going as every starter except catcher
Rusty Meyer recorded a hit.
Islanders starter Danny Luna, who
entered the game with a 19.41 ERA, spot
ted .the Aggies (24-10) two runs in the first
due to his wildness.
Luna (1-2) issued two-out walks to Neal
Stephenson and Rusty Meyer, then gave up
a RBI single to David Evans.
Luna then hit Travis Wong and Ty
Garner on consecutive pitches to drive in
another run.
Luna was replaced when he walked Erik
Schindewolf to lead off the second inning,
but his replacement, Scott Clements, did
not fare much better.
Clements retired the first batter he faced,
then gave up a two-run home run to Matt
Alexander to give the Aggies four runs on
two hits through two innings.
The Aggies were stuck on two hits until
the fifth inning when they erupted for three
runs on five hits, thanks to RBI singles by
Evans, Garner and Tim Petru.
The runs were enough as the A&M
pitchers held the Islanders (13-20) in
check.
A&M-Corpus Christi managed 10 hits
but could only muster one run in the third
inning.
A&M starter Kyle Parcus (2-2) was
effective, allowing only the one run on six
hits and strking out four in five innings.
A&M relievers Ryan Warpinski, Todd
Deininger and Logan Kensing combined to
allow only four hits and strike out five in
their four innings of work.
The victory stretched the Aggies win
ning streak to five games, the last four com
ing against non-conference foes.
j/kggie bats. Longhorn pitching set for battle
By Micala Proesch
THE BATTALION
The Texas A&M softball
earn will host the red-hot
university of Texas Longhorns
Wednesday night.
The No. 23 Longhorns (32-9,
5-0 Big 12) are riding a seven-
game winning streak into the
matchup against the Aggies,
which includes wins over con
ference foes Baylor, Kansas and
Missouri. UT is off to its best
Big 12 start in school history
and already has
equalled the number of
conference wins it post
ed last season.
The Longhorns are
led by freshman pitch
ing powerhouse Cat
Osterman, who has
thrown two perfect
games this season, with
the most recent coming COLLINS
against Baylor. She boasts a
1.10 ERA and has recorded 331
strikeouts this season.
The No. 22 Aggies
(28-8, 2-3 Big 12) are
batting .273 on the
season, but will have
to step up their offen
sive production against
Osterman, who is
widely regarded as one
of the top pitchers in
the nation.
“The team hit the ball well
this past weekend, and we are
feeling confident both offen
sively and defensively,” said
A&M head coach Jo Evans.
“But they have got one of the
best pitchers in the country in
Cat Osterman, so we know it’s
going to be a great game.”
A&M has won its past four
games, including a two-game
sweep of Iowa State last week
end. The Aggies played error
less ball behind sophomore
pitchers Jessica Slataper and
Lindsey Wilhelmson to secure
the victories.
A&M also produced offen
sively, led by junior catcher
Selena Collins, who went 4-for-4
on Sunday, bringing her batting
average up to a team-leading .359
and her home run count to nine.
