They have a pitcher who got into some games for Oregon State 2 years ago. Surprised he's not one of the starters.

[UTPhil2006 3806]

Kid from RRHS is on their team as well

Coincidence?  I think not.

Noted.  So the question "how in the hell did David Pierce lose with Ty f'n Cobb?" needs to be asked there.

[NeverMarryAStripper 21874]

Because he's putting him on the mound instead of in the outfield

[torre 1285]

mmm,  My Texas Baseball ego surmised that Boise St had asked for the series to begin the resurrection of their progam with a historic program.  

 

On Thursday, Pierce said there wasn’t much rhythm or reason to this decision. The Longhorns simply needed someone to play at home:

We needed a home weekend and sometimes you have choices and sometimes it’s a matchup. Us wanting to play at home week two and their program being available (out) of a handful. Then you look at which one fits best. Is it a Boise State? Or is it a team out of the northeast that you know nothing about? I know they’ll have some good players because they’ll recruit pretty heavily out of California, and they’ve had some players on their campus, I think, for a year. It just kind of happened to be honest with you. We’re pretty strategic about our scheduling, but that one was kind of filling a void more than anything.”

Boise St has a coaching staff with MLB experience.

BSU uniforms and gloves probably still have the price tags hanging on.  Not sure why,  but I'm taping (DVR) this for comic relief.

Will LHN switch over from the softball game when it starts?

Damn, 40 years.

Bink!

[zlavydra 2119]

Boise still looking for their first hit in 40 years.

[Bullneck 19073]

I think Fernando Valenzuela's son is 1B for Boise.

[4th&Five 41515]

I can’t see the ball from the pitcher when it’s going across the billboard screen. 

[rivin 199]

Hell yeah, Zubia!

I don't think Boise State has what it takes to make it to Omaha this season.

going to be a long shot. 

[hornbri 1396]

wow - that's a out you should have. 

[zlavydra 2119]

I see a 300-pitch complete game for this guy.

Seriously though, mostly good AB"s that inning, with Faltine's a glaring exception.

[Goodman 3273]

Fuck the AD for whoring the baseball field out. Can't track a ball with that dumb advertising sign behind the plate.

[zlavydra 2119]

Damn, wasn't expecting UK guy to be in the starting line up.  He does not go (wyn)yard.

Every ML park has some type of advertising behind home plate .. without the distraction of glaring lighting.

That shit’s gotta go.

Plastic grass and plastic base paths are an abomination against god.

Andre the giant looking mfer at 1st.

So when the LHN contract is up they're canning it right?  Where are we gonna watch baseball?

LHN viewers are gonna hear Poison in their nightmares by the end of this season. 

[zlavydra 2119]

Was hoping for some comedy tonight, but the Boise pitcher is ok and turning this into a snoozer.

[rivin 199]

Nice bunt

[rivin 199]

Nice, 3-0 Texas

[zlavydra 2119]

What the fuck was the LF doing there? 3-0 Texas.

It looked awful but he was not catching that.

Good to see Pierce give Cam the start, he deserves it. Dixon just looks awful at the plate, an automatic out so far this season.

[rivin 199]

Bases loaded, one out, Faltine up

Excellent night for Elder.

[Goodman 3273]

That has to be it for Elder, 106 pitches through 7.5.
