Late surge leads Jayhawks past Benedictine
By PHIL ELLENBECKER
Sports Writer
It took awhile for the Kansas Jayhawk bats to come alive against Benedictine yesterday, but once they did KU had little trouble scoring runs against the Ravens in a 12-9 victory.
KU, 18-18, will be in action tomorrow in a 1 p.m. double-header with Washburn at Quigley
KU trailed the Ravens 4-2 going into the bottom of the sixth inning, but then erupted for four runs. The Jayhawks added three runs in the fourth, while the Ravens helped them hold off two late-inning Ravens rallies.
Center fielder Hugh Stanfield, hitless in his first three at-bats, drove in the go-ahead runs in the sixth with his first home run of the season, a game that included Phil Doherty and Chuck Christenson on base.
The hit broke a four-inning scoring drought against Benedictine starting pitcher Doug Price, 0-4 this season.
"He was throwing three or four breaking pitches and he had a change-up that he'd throw on a 3-0 count, and I've never seen anybody who'd do that," Stanfield said. "Once we started getting to him he stopped throwing the breaking pitches and we'd just wait on the change-up."
Stanfield said he hit a change-up for his home run, which came on a 1-0 count.
"I was just trying to hit the ball hard
and I had to make sure it far out in
front of it and get a little higher on.
After Stanfield's homer, Bill Yelton reached base on an error, stole second and came home on Joe Heeeny's single. Heeeny went to second but attempted to pick him off and threw the ball away.
Rob Thomson drove Heeney home with a
single. Price, who received the loss, was then replaced by Doug Jones.
Stanfield arched a fly ball over Raven right fielder Steve Loughman's head for a triple off Jones in the seventh, driving in Christenson and Scott Jones and giving KU an 8-4 lead. The hit gave Stanfield five RBI for the day and was his sixth triple of the season, tying him for the KU single-season record with Steve Jeltz and John Spotswood.
Earlier in the inning, Jones had singled in Doherty after Deherty had singled and went to second on Christenson's walk.
The beneficiary of KU's sixth- and seventh-inning outbursts was pitcher Dennis Coplin, 2.3. He picked up the victory by pitching 42 13 innings of shutout but before being relieved by Bret Walters.
Copel, who is normally saved for weekend starts against Big Eight Conference opponents.
was pressed into duty when starting pitcher John Quinn ran into trouble in the third inning.
The 6-foot senior left hander mowed down 13 batters in a row after walking his first bater. He didn't allow any hits and out suck six batters, but 30 strikeouts in 30 13 innings pitched this season.
Besides Staffield, other big bats for KU included Thomson, who went four for five with three doubles and two RBI and Heeney, who went two for three, including a solo homer in the game runs scored and two RBI. Doherty and Christie added two hits each in a 16-hit attack.
Thomson, who raised his batting average to 427, tied the KU record for doubles in a single
Quinn gave five hits and four earned runs in 12 innings. Morris gave up two runs, one

"Against OSU we faced their No. 1 pitcher and got behind all day," he said. "We were taking a lot of pitches and getting behind. Against Nebraska their pitcher threw hard and came up with one girl, girls were just overpowered by her."
