Rangers pick
Raider; Twins
tap Aggie star
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) —
Texas A&M shortstop Chuck
Knoblauch, a career 356 batter and
the Aggies’ all-time stolen base
leader, is looking forward to doing
all that in the majors soon.
The Minnesota Twins picked
Knoblauch of Houston Monday in
the first round of baseball’s amateur
draft Out-of-state teams selected
three other Texans, including the
brother of former Texas A&M
quarterback Kevin Murray.
Meanwhile, major league teams
in the Lone Star State grabbed one
Texas Tech player and another from
a Massachusetts high school.
The Texas Rangers signed Texas
lech outfielder Donald Harris as
their first-round selection in the
amateur free agent draft The Hous-
ton Astros selected the 12th player
in the draft, JefT Juden, a right-han-
ded pitcher from Salem, Mass.,
High School.
The Cleveland Indians, in out-of-
state acquisitions, chose. 17-year-
old outfielder Calvin Murray of
W.T. White High School in Dallas.
The St Louis Cardinals selected
outfielder Paul Coleman from
Franks!on High School in the sixth
draft pick.
The 20lh choice went to the Cin-
cinnati Reds, Texas outfielder-first
baseman Scott Bryant. The Min-
nesota Twins acquired Texas A&M
shortstop Chuck Knoblauch.
Knoblauch, who turns 21 next
month, describes himself as “defi-
nitely not a power hitter, but a guy
who can mike things happen on the
bases."
“I can run. I can steal bases. I
hustle. I can hit the ball into the
gaps,” Knoblauch said in a tele-
phone interview from his Houston
home. "I can put some pressure on
the defense.”
Knoblauch batted .364 with eight
home runs, 64 RBIs, 13 doubles,
four triples and 36 steals this year.
The 5-fool-9, 170-pounder was the
No. 3 batter in the order as the Ag-
gies reached the NCAA Central
Regional final.
*1 spoke with (General Man-
ager) Andy MacPhail and he told
me the Twins have spent the past
four or five years trying to build up
pitching,” said Knoblauch. “He
said being a middle infielder would
work to my advantage. I hope my
three years in college means some-
thing.’’
Waco’s Harris hit .377 in his last
11 games for Tech. A member of
The Associated Press’ All-
Southwest Conference baseball
team, the sophomore center fielder
hit .322 this season, with 44 RBIs
and 10 home runs.
Seven triples by Harris were one
short of the single-season school
record. Harris, in two years at Tech,
hit .317 with 68 RBIs and 15
homers. Harris also has a strong
football background, including two
years in college as a walk-on.
Harris said he decided to end his
football career because “I want to
settle down and make this
(baseball) my life. I’ve been doing
this, going from football to baseball
to track, all my life. I don’t want to
be going back and forth."
THE NEWS-TELEGRAM, Sulphur Springs, Texas, Tuesday, June 6,1989—A-7.
Witt.
Costinsed from Page fA
home to give the Rangers a 2-1
lead when designated hitler Mike
Stanley singled to right field.
"Ivan (Calderon) just lost it
(ball)," said Chicago manager Jeff
Tbrborg of the ball hit by Franco.
“That’s a tough sky.”
Calderon said he simply lost
track of the ball hit by Franco.
"I lost it," he sard “It was get-
ting dark, 1 started running in and I
didn’t see the ball.”
Another bizarre double-triple
combination added to the Ranger
lead in the sixth, as Scott Fletcher
had a two-base hit down the left
field line and scored when Ruben
Sierra hit a line (hive off of Dave
Gallagher's glove in deep center.
Gallagher also seemed to have
trouble playing the ball, as he first
broke in and then sprinted out but
not in time to keep the ball from
going over his head.
Gallagher said he misjudged the
Sierra Krnke.
"He (Sierra) hit it better than I
thought he did," said the White Sox
censer fielder "I saw it off the baL
I just missed it.
"He’s a strong kid and it really
took off,” he concluded.

Highlights of Amen can League
games played yesterday:
Yesterday’s Scores: In the opener of the
SkyDome in Toronto, the Blue Jayi lost to
Milwaukee 5-3. Also, it was Texas 4, Chica-
go 2; Baltimore 16, New York 3; Cleveland
7, California 3; Minnesota 2, Oakland 1;
Boston 5, Detroit 2; and Kansas City 5,
Seattle 3 in 13 innings.
Orioles 16, Yankees 3
Call them the Sham Yankees.
Thu is the proudest, most successful
franchise in baseball history? Not on Man-
day night, when the Yankees committed six
errors, allowed 13 unearned runs and were
touted 16-3 by the suiging Baltimore
Orioles.
"Nobody is happy about what happened
tonight,” said Yankees manager Dallas
Green, who screamed so loudly at his
players after the game that the tirade could
be heard through the cinderblock walls.
"But let's not make any more of it than it is.
It's just one night, and you won't see it
again.”
What the fans at Yankee Stadium saw was
so abysmal that they began chanting for rain
in the third inning. By then, it was 11 -0.
The Yankees’ errors were the most in the
American League this season and their most
since making six on May 24,1986.
The Orioles, 54-107 Usl year, have a five-
game lead in the AL East. But they aren't
gloating. !
Steve Finley's grand slam capped si
eight-run third inning and Mickey TeoJeton
and Jim Traber hit two-run homers for Bal-
timore. The Orioles were outhit 13-9.
Don Mattingly, patches' Andy Hawkins
and second baseman Steve Sax made errors
on consecutive balls to slan the third iraiing.
And it just got worse for New York.
Brewers 5, Blue Jays 3
A sellout crowd of 48,378 attended the
opening of the ultramodern, $375 miUiazy
Sky Dome The fans gave the Blue Jays s
standing ovation when they took the field.
The first pitch was a strike by Jimmy Key to
Paul Molitor and the ball was taken out of
play and will be sent to the Hall of Fame in
Coopenlown, N.Y.
Glenn Braggs' two-run homer keyed the
Milwaukee victory. Fred MoGnff and
George Bell home red for Toronto.
Indians 7, Angels 3
Cory Snyder's three-run homer in the
National League
Highlights of National League
games played yesterday:
Yesterday’s Scores: Lo* Angeles swept
Atlanta, 7-0 and 7-4. Elsewhere, u was San
Francisco 11, Cincinnati 8; Sl Louis 5,
Montreal 4; Chicago 15. New York 3. and
San Diego 10, Houston 2 Pittsburgh and
Philadelphia played to a 3-3 tie in a game
called by rain in the bottom of the eighth in
rung.
Dodgers 7-7, Braves 0-4
To the rescue came Ramon Martinez.
With the Los Angeles pitching staff worn
out from working 35 innings in two games
against the Houston Astros and facing a
doubleheader al Atlanta, the Dodgers turned
to the 21 year-old rookie for help.
And Martinez delivered
“I knew I was giving them more chance
lo rest the others." said Martinez, who stop-:
ped the Braves on six hits Monday night as
the Dodgers won 7-0 in the first game of a
doubleheader.
“1 was aware of what had happened the
last two days."
In the second game, two-run homers by
Kirk Gibson and John Shelby led the
Dodgers to a 4-2 victory and a sweep.
