Stanton There is one sure thing you can say about LU's disappointing baseball season— It's a team move. After winning a season opening double header, the Flames have struggled to an 8-18 record. The team has been decimated by injuries to top pitchers Tony Beasley and Paul Johnson, catcher Doug Reynolds and outfielder Rodney Car­ ter. But it's not the injuries that has Coach Bobby Richardson upset. "Back in 1975 we went 51-6 at South Carolina. We had a lew in­ juries and someone always picked up the slack." Richardson said. "Here, we haven't found anyone to pick up the slack." Lack of punch

Richardson is also disappointed in the Flames' lack of offensive punch with men on base. "The most frustrating thing is hav­ ing a runner at third with one out three times, to see time after time our hitters not coming through with men on base. 'The little things add up to one run here and there. Instead of win­ ning a game I4-0 like we should have, we lost I0-9 (to Radford last Thursday). The team halting average stands at .280 with 18 homers and 115 RBI. That does not stand up too well against the Flumes' opponent's totals of .305,21 home runs and 135 RBI. "We're just going to have make some adjustments." Richardson said One change that Richardson was hoping he would nol have to make is in the pitching stuff "I'm going to have to go with Tony (Beasley) in the starling lineup in­ stead of our freshmen.
