  1. Texas won the second game against MSU 8-5 because Witt gave up a 5-2 lead in the bottom of the eighth, allowing three runs. Nixon came in the eighth and gave up a two-run single and a walk. With the bases loaded again, he got out of it on a popup. Texas won by scoring three runs in the top of the ninth on a Melendez three run homer. In the bottom of the ninth MSU had two on and one out. Nixon again escaped for the win. You don't win that game and there wouldn't have been a second game against MSU to lose. More depth in the pen would have helped. In the last game against MSU, Bednar gave up all three runs in 6 and a 1/3 innings, when he left the game tied at 3-3. It was Landon Sims, who got the save in the first MSU game. This time he came in and completely shut Texas down for 2.2 innings on no hits, no walks, and 4 K's. The only Texas runner to reach was on an error. He got the win. Meanwhile Quintanilla has to come in again in the sixth and continue on into the ninth, till finally giving up the winning run. He had to pitch too many innings because of the short pen.
  2. I am not referring to 2022, but rather 2021. That CWS was the starter, Cole Quintanilla, and get it to the ninth for Aaron Nixon. Sometimes Texas brought a starter back in relief. When that starter didn't go the necessary innings for the Quintanilla bridge to Nixon, they started using Witt and that was it. That 2022 team got killed at the CWS, both games were basically over before a reliever ever saw the mound. It was different in 2021 when there was basically no bullpen, and it did hurt then.
  3. Coach talks about playing team offense and that players have options during certain situations on offense. That you have to play to the situation, especially players like Duplantier. That this is needed now even more with the injuries. This is adapting to the current circumstances. This just makes so much sense A very interesting point made was that if Riojas was to remain a starter, the bullpen had to be expanded. I think a lot of people here will remember how short the Texas bullpen got a few years ago and it costs us in Omaha. It was down to a starter, a reliever, and then a closer basically the entire CWS. He said that Moffet and Saunier had shown progress in bullpen sessions with the help of Weiner, and they became part of this expanded pen. This really helped after the extra inning game followed by another early start the next day. This is quality coaching; he sees a problem and uses another quality coach in Weiner to fix it. This team and the Texas Baseball program is in very good hands.
  4. Aggy heading to Arkansas this weekend starting on Thursday has become suddenly an interesting series. Will tell us a lot about the status of both teams when it is completed.
  5. Due to recent developments, Aggy going to Fayetteville for a series starting on Thursday becomes suddenly more interesting than it was first thought to be. The results of the series could tell us a lot about where both teams are at that point.

  7. Solo first place for Texas fifteen games deep in their first SEC season, not bad Schloss.
  8. With two outs and nobody on in the bottom of the 12th Georgia walks it off with a solo homer. Fifteen games deep into their first season in the SEC, Texas is now in first place alone at 13-2.
  9. Pig scores a run to take a 6-5 lead in the 11th. Two out and nobody on for Georgia in the bottom half. Then a HBP, sound familiar, a double in the gap in left center ties it again at 6-6, Georgia with a shot still for a game winner.
  10. Georgia barely hung on yesterday in the ninth, not as lucky today, tied at 5-5 now.
  11. Moffett is a real wildcard, that does need to be played more.
  12. Sanier hangs in for the win. Bon Ton Roulet. Get out of the bluegrass asap.
  13. Navarre up in the bullpen, not expected.
  14. I like how Galvan went over and said something to him, if anybody can understand what he's going through today it's him.
  15. Max will be back at least by post season, but reports lately even before that.
