  1. We're built to pummel ordinary teams. And we do. But run-ruling half of America doesn't help much when those aren't the teams you play in late May. Our record against the best pitchers we've faced isn't much different from any other team's. We obviously lack that ace who could have made tonight a scoreless tie to this point. It's not that we're overmatched on all our ABs. We've hit in some tough luck, for sure. But blowing our chance with the bases loaded was huge. We need to make the most of these last looks at their starter, because we're going to keep getting a steady diet of her.
  2. I didn't think that was such a terrible pitch. The first one she hit definitely was. Give credit/blame where due.
  3. I'm hoping to see a little bunt action next time we're up. But first, let's make sure we're only down 3.
  4. Every lefty bat: weak so far. Every righty bat: solid contact. Running into tough lefties is this roster's kryptonite, and it could cost us a title if we don't figure out a better offensive plan.
  5. Sad to say, but my belief that OU would waltz to the WCWS on the strength of two run-rule blowouts is halfway to completion. FSU obviously was nothing special when Texas blasted them 10-0 in Florida and might be even worse now. Not sure how the 'Noles managed to get to 46-14 going into the super, but it doesn't speak well to their SOS. Anyone could have seen this weekend's rout coming...and I'm sure the committee did.
  6. This could easily be a 2-game run-rule super coming up. Which doesn't sound all that super.
  7. Showed some fight after the extended funk. That's a positive, I guess. With a team this prone to playing bad baseball, every plaudit seems a stretch.
  8. Before the season, I wasn't even sure Cincinnati had a baseball team. Now I'm not sure we do.
  9. Win or lose tonight, this has been a maddening stretch. On the "bright" side, come Friday we probably won't need to be trying to flip back and forth between Texas baseball and softball.
  10. There are many ways to describe this team. "Not great" is one of them.
  11. Good shutdown. Now...another crooked number, por favor.
  12. We're a rolling Nerf ball of butter knives with RISP.

  14. So he's Max Abmas without a jump shot? Sounds like a great pick.
  15. "Decent" might well be this team's everyday ceiling.
  16. Don't lose to Tech. In anything. Especially when their team is crap. I'm surprised they didn't dogpile. You know Yormark was hoping.
  17. Watching from the Eastern time zone makes this even worse. Quit playing like dogs.
  18. This one has stupid loss written all over it. Let's not let that be the actual result.
  19. With those greasy mullets and scruffy facial hair, Tech really should be wearing wifebeaters.
  20. If you can't be a bigger fish, find a smaller pond. Maybe he and Fontenot can be stars on some semi-pro team in the Philippines.
