  1. There was Stevee Wilson again. 😀
  2. We were told that Mercer could only pitch once a week.
  3. Way closer than the pitches being called strikes that were way further than that outside.
  4. Eight run game and that is a strike in most cases.
  5. Run rule is ten runs ahead after seven.
  6. Actually, it was 1988 that Texas didn't make the CWS, losing to California in the championship game of the Austin Regional. I remember it well. Texas had the tying run at third and winning run at first, no outs in the ninth, when our best hitter named Patrick lined into a double play and a ground out ended the game one bater later. A Cal fan came down and was yelling stuff and one of the girlfriends of a Texas player hit him with a big purse.
  7. In 1980 Hawaii beat Texas at the Austin Regional We were shocked, it was our right to go to Omaha at the time. Those were some great days for Texas Baseball.
  8. ESPN had no pro sports at the time. They did a lot of college sports. They help make college baseball a big-time sport by carrying games and the entire College World Series for the first time.
  9. Ty was a great guy; he played hard when he got the chance. The team made him captain. I knew him pretty well; he always knew his baseball future was not as a player. He wanted to coach and told Coach Gus so in his last year at Texas. Gus helped him make that happen.
  10. I think he was a student assistant at Texas but got his real coaching chops at then Southwest Texas State, before becoming their long-time head coach.
  11. Gus helped Ty get into coaching. He wasn't a great player and wanted to get into coaching.
  12. His dad was a big wheel for Baylor, but he was a great guy. We would work out together at the hotel gym in Omaha. Tragically both of Ty's parents were killed in a car accident.
  13. Ty Harrington, he played for Gus and Texas.
  14. It happens to the best of us, if we are lucky.
  15. Is that like the new Scott Wilson?
  16. Grayson Saunier pitching.
  17. Is "show and tell" still a thing. Not sure what might be shown or told these days.
  18. Rhode Island baseball is ramtastic. The stories when the game get out of hand begin.
  19. Announcer said it hit on the warning track. I thought it was close to a homer, couldn't see it.
  20. This has always been OSU's problem. They can hit, but pitching and defense take them down every year.
  21. What the hell was that right fielder?
