Rolls is a pitcher and infielder from Schlage High School in Kansas City, Kan. Corson is a pitcher from Fairview High School in Boulder, Colo. The pair of recruits join seven others who have signed with Kansas for the 1997 season. Compiled from The Associated Press and Kansan staff reports. 7/26 © 1998 United Feature Sys BASEBALL: Continued from Page 1. got to go out there and win another one tomorrow." The Jayhawks got a big boost from starting pitcher Mario Opipari. He made his second consecutive start since being moved into the starting rotation. He pitched six innings, allowing just five hits and one earned run. "If they keep throwing me out there, I'll keep doing it." "I felt the pressure a little bit," Opipari said. "I felt I did OK. I kept us in the ball game. But I tried not to do nothing different than my last time. I just went out there and did what I could. Randall said Opipari was the answer to the quest for another starting pitcher. The Jayhawks trailed 2-1 entering the eighth inning when Byrd was walked. He went to third on an errant pickoff attempt by Driscoll and scored the tying run on Kliner's sacrifice fly. "He's it," he said. "I was very encouraged. He wasn't as sharp as he was at Wichita State. He walked a few too many guys." Despite pitching a complete game, Driscoll was his own worst enemy. He committed two of the five Nebraska errors, and all three runs he allowed were unearned. Kliner finished 2-for-3 with one RBI while extending his hitting streak to 16 games. Byrd saw a 12-game hitting streak snapped with an 0-for-3 night. Nebraska entered the game at 6-9 and in fifth place in the conference, while Kansas was 6-12 and, in last place. If the season ended today, Kansas would not make the Big Eight Tournament, and that places an even greater importance on the series. "No doubt about it, these are games we have to have," Kliner said. "I think we were pressing there for a little while, but this will relax us." Randall agreed. "I think we were pressing a little bit," he said. "But pressing like we were wanting to win very badly; pressing in a positive way. This team wants to win. They won't give up, and hey, who knows, this might start us on another streak. "I've been telling them all along we can go on a big winning streak again." Kansas will play Nebraska again at 3 p.m. today at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium. Kansas 3, Nebraska 2, 10 inn.
