The baseball season of
: ^o  ~   1923 opened for the Teachers
College when the Eagles made
their flight to the home of the  A
Horned Frogs, old rivals of
ai  ^'H -i the Normal. It was raw ma-
terial that Coach St. Clair
carried over to play this
opening game, which    was
therefore lost by a large score.
However, the contest worked
several men into places that
would make them more effi-
cient. The Eagles played un-
, )een in training but a few
(lays and of being without
some good   material which
later reported for workout.
Edwards mounted the       MITCHEI- .. Pitcher
LESLIE, Left Field  hill for the Eagles, but, not
having time to work back
into his old form, let the hard-hitting Christians touch him severely in the first.
This weakness, accompanied by lack of support from the Eagle squad, gave
the Frogs their initial marker. Swinging back into the old tune in the last half
of the second, T. C. U. got one circuit clout and marked two more scores. The
Eagles made singles but were unable to advance their men. The third inning
gave the fatal blow for the Teachers and the successful jump for the Frogs.
In it the Christians put over nine runs, two of them being homers. The re-
mainder of the game was air-tight ball. Mitchell, heaving for the Eagles, held
the Frogs at his mercy, letting them down with two hits for the last six innings.
The Teachers fought hard to the last, advancing men to third time after time
but being unable to give themselves a marker.
