Jayhawks Capture Two Victories In Weekend Series with OSU
After losing two series on the road to Iowa State and Oklahoma, the KU baseball team found the home field more to their liking as they took two out of three games from the Oklahoma State Cowboys over the weekend.
rowing the older racing shell, received a head start as the race began at the Turnpike bridge. The exhibition was to promote interest in crew racing in this area.
Steve Renko's pitching and Gary Ray's big bat spelled the difference as the Jayhawk's won the opener Friday, 3-2. Although giving up eight hits, Renko was able to strand 11 Cowboys on the bases in winning his third game of the season against one defeat.
Ray cracked a two-run homer in the fifth to give the Jayhawks a 2-1 lead. Bobby Skahan drove in what proved to be the winning run with a sacrifice fly in the sixth, scoring Steve McGreevy.
OKLAHOMA State used three home runs to come away with the second game Friday, 6-5. The seesaw contest saw KU pull away to a 2-0 lead in the second when Jim Shanks lined a home run over the 380-foot marker in center field and Bobby Skahan, who had doubled and moved to third after Shank's blast, scored on McGreevy's ground ball to short.
The Cowboys' Tracy Freeny slapped a three-run homer in the fourth which put OSU ahead 3-2.
KU tied the score at 3-3 in the fifth when Shanks walked with the bases loaded, forcing in McGreevy from third.
Tony Sellari's solo homerun in the sixth gave OSU the lead once more, 4-3. The lead was short-lived as the Jayhawks came back in their half of the sixth for two runs produced by Jim Dreiling's single, a sacrifice by Sandy Buda, a double by McGreevy scoring Dreiling, and a double by Mike Der Manuel scoring McGreevy.
AFTER COWBOY shortstop Don Bumpass led off with a single in the seventh, KU coach Floyd Temple replaced Sandy Buda on the mound with Fred Littooy. The first batter to face Littooy, Fred Moulder, hit a one-ball, two strike pitch over the left field fence, giving the Cowboys the winning margin. KU threatened in their half of the seventh, but left Renko stranded on third base.
Fred Chana pitched steady ball as he led the Jayhawks to a 5-1 victory in the finale Saturday afternoon. Chana gave up five scattered hits, struck out seven and walked only one on the way to his fourth win of the season against one loss.
O-State's only run came in the first inning on a lead-off double by Bumpass and a single by Ron McCord.
McGREEVY'S two-run homer in the third put KU into the lead to stay. Dreiling's three-run homer in
the fourth, his first of the year, added to the early lead.
McGreevy got five hits in 10 times at bat to lead the Jayhawk hitting attack in the series. Dreiling went four for nine.
Sellari, big O-State catcher, led his team with six hits in 10 times at bat. Cowboy center fielder Tony Stark, who had led the Big Eight in hitting coming into the KU series, managed only one hit in 11 times at bat during the three games.
The series left both teams with 7-5 records.

Timmons Recruits Ryun, Petterson
By Glen Phillips (Sports Editor)
Bob Timmons, new Jayhawk track coach, announced Saturday that Olympic-miler Jim Ryun and his teammate, Mike Petterson, have decided to attend KU.
Both boys are seniors at Wichita East. Timmons was coach there until he accepted an assistant coaching position at KU last year.
Timmons said the boys will sign a national letter of intent May 20. He explained that because of rules, the school must wait till that date to sign the athletes.
RYUN became the only sub-four-minute miler from the high school level last year when he ran a 3:59.0 in the Compton (Calif.) Relays. He went to Tokyo with the U.S. Olympic squad but was eliminated in the semifinals.
Timmons also stressed the importance of signing Petterson. "He's a tremendous athlete," he said. "Mike is the fourth best high school miler in the nation . . . but he's always run second to Jim (Ryun)." Petterson's performances include a 1:55.2 half-mile and a 4:12.2 mile here in the Kansas Relays.
Timmons' hiring as the head coach at KU was announced last Saturday following the firing of veteran Bill Easton. Timmons had resigned his position as assistant coach here to take a head coaching job at Oregon State.
