Perry’s touchdown
highlights scrimmage
True Brown
The Texas A&M football
team completed its second
practice of the week in full pads
Tuesday. A&M practiced for
just over two hours, ending
practice with a scrimmage.
Seven players were not
cleared to practice Tuesday and
were limited to conditioning.
Keelan Jackson, hamstring;
Kasey Cheshier, quadriceps;
Alan Reuber, hamstring; Dwain
Goynes, ankle; Adam Black,
back; Eric Crutchfield, shoul
der and Kevin Mangum,
quadriceps, all sat out.
Starting offensive tackle
Andre Brooks was carted out
near the end of practice.
“He’s been pretty sick,” said
football head coach R.C.
Slocum. “He tried to push
through (the entire workout)
and got most of practice in.”
Scrimmage report
At the end of practice, the
Aggies conducted a spirited
goal-line situation scrimmage,
pitting the first team offense
against the first team defense
and the second team offense
against the second team
defense.
A&M’s offense looked solid
against the Wrecking Crew,
scoring touchdowns on its first
two plays. The first touchdown
was a strike from quarterback
Mark Farris to running back
Oschlor Flemming in the right
side of the end zone.
Farris also threw a touch
down pass to fullback Stacy
Jones later in the scrimmage.
Running back Joe Weber
cashed in on the next play,
plunging up the middle from
three yards out for the touch
down. Weber finished the
scrimmage with three touch
downs, including a head-first
dive over the pile from one
yard out.
The play of the day, how
ever, belonged to junior trans
fer Thomas Perry. Perry, orig
inally on the 12th Man roster
as a linebacker, switched to
fullback earlier this week.
Perry is the grandson of
Heisman Trophy winner John
David Crow, who played for
A&M from 1955-57.
With Crow watching the
Aggies’ scrimmage. Perry took
a handoff on a 2nd-and-goal
play from the two yard line in
for the touchdown.
“That was a good scrim
mage,” Slocum said. “We did
a little goal line stuff down
there, and I thought both sides
competed well.”
Sheets pitches past Astros
in season opener, 9-3
HOUSTON (AP) — The name Enron was
gone from the ballpark. As far as the Houston
Astros were concerned, hitting and pitching were
missing, too.
Ben Sheets struck out a career-high eight, and
Richie Sexson, Tyler Houston and Jose
Hernandez drove in two runs each Tuesday to
lead the Milwaukee Brewers to a season-opening
9-3 win over the Houston Astros.
“Ben was overpowering,” Brewers manager
Davey Lopes said. “His fastball was clocked at
97. He came out firing in the first inning. He was
pumped tonight. It usually takes him three or four
innings to get going.”
Sheets, a member of the gold medal-winning
U.S. Olympic team two years ago, allowed two
runs and nine hits in six innings and walked none.
Last April 5, Sheets lost to Houston in his major
league debut.
“There were opening day jitters, but our guys
came out and banged them early,” Sheets said.
“I’m pleased with the way things went. I went six
innings and I still felt strong. I didn’t want to burn
up the bullpen in the first week.”
The game was the first one at the stadium
since it was renamed.
Following the collapse of Enron, the NL
Central champions bought back naming rights to
their ballpark from the bankrupt energy compa
ny.
The downtown stadium was known as Enron
Field during its first two seasons, but it is Astros
Field now — until the team finalizes a new nam
ing rights deal.
Wade Miller, who won his final seven deci
sions last season and had been 7-0 against
Milwaukee, made his first opening day start
Offense
Continued from page 7
The Aggies are hoping to subdue their rivals at
home and improve their conference standings,
and they know they cannot let their emotions
get in the way.
“We have to make sure to approach this
and left in the fifth inning after consecutive
homers by Sexson and Geoff Jenkins. Alex
Ochoa also homered for the Brewers, in the
eighth off Scott Linebrink.
“I think Wade’s adrenaline was pretty heavy,”
new Astros manager Jimy Williams said. “His
breaking ball was getting away from him. I think
that was just the excitement of opening day.”
Miller allowed three or fewer earned runs in
23 of his 32 starts last season but he equaled that
in the first inning. He hit the first two batters,
threw a wild pitch, gave up a one-out RBI single
to Sexson and a two-run double to Houston.
“I think I was anxious and not really calm,”
Miller said. “I hope this isn’t an ongoing thing
with people saying ‘Oh, God, he pitched opening
day and he didn't do well.’ I think it’s just one of
those things.”
Adam Everett, an Olympic teammate of
Sheets, hit an RBI single in the second, but
Hernandez hit a two-run double in the third to
make it 5-1.
Miller allowed seven runs and seven hits in
four-plus innings.
“We had our chances to score and we didn’t,”
Williams said. “We had the right people up, it
just didn’t work today. You have to give some
credit to their hitters. And, Sheets pitched well.
He made his pitches when he had to.”
The Brewers’ batters made it easy for Sheets.
“This year, we have more options, we have
more different ways to go,” Jenkins said. ‘‘Last
year it seemed like we were always playing for
the three-run home run. This year we have more
contact hitters who can put the ball in play.”
game just like every other game,” Evans said.
“We can’t get too emotionally charged about
the rivalry. There will be that extra excitement
there because it’s Texas, but we just have to
focus and play ball.”
First pitch is set for 6:30 p.m. at the Aggie
Softball Complex, with Slataper taking the
mound for A&M against Osterman for UT.
