McKenzie behind the plate? That must be a typo.

Edit: I didn't read the tweet part. Pierce is getting too cute with this game. He needs to focus on winning it.

Lets go Horns!  Good luck Tristan!

[zlavydra 2119]

Stevens went to the same high school as Brad Pitt.

[Horny Bull 2759]

Let's see what you've got Tristan.

[Horny Bull 2759]

That was some horrible base running.

[Schnitty3 31]

I'm not sure if this is true or not but I've heard that Mckenzie is playing all 9 positions tonight.

He's at first now

[zlavydra 2119]

Wonder how the guy from Minnesota likes the Valley.

[EuroHorn 3259]

Nice double play. 3-2-3

Stevens gets out of a bases loaded jam.

Probably has snowbird parents or grandparents.  There's tons of minny sotans down in the valley.  It's weird.

[Horny Bull 2759]

2 run bomb for Hamilton, 2-0 Texas. 

[zlavydra 2119]

Ham bomb

[EuroHorn 3259]

Hamilton leaves the yard 

[Austin Orange 98]

Nice dong, Hamilton!

[Horny Bull 2759]

RBI single for Shaw, 3-0 Texas

[zlavydra 2119]

Nice throw by CF there. Didn't think it would be close. 3-0

[Horny Bull 2759]

Kody slam, 7-0 Texas

[EuroHorn 3259]

Grand slam Kody

[Austin Orange 98]

Clemens may get his number retired.

[Schnitty3 31]

GRAND SLAM CLEMENS

 

7-0 Horns

Kody is having one hell of a year

[Horny Bull 2759]

Texas leads 7-0 after 2

[Schnitty3 31]

Mckenzie now at 2nd

[Horny Bull 2759]

That's all for Stevens as Bocchi relieves him here in the 3rd. Hard to tell too much from this outing. I would like to see more. 

[jettrink 40]

How many homers for Kody so far?  Any one know?

[MadBurgerMaker 404]

12 I think it was

[Horny Bull 2759]

12

[Horny Bull 2759]

Solo shot gets UTRGV on the board, 7-1 Texas

[Schnitty3 31]

And Mckenzie now at third. I'm glad we're leading by a good amount because he'll be pitching soon at this rate.

[Horny Bull 2759]

RBI single for Hamilton, 8-1 Texas

[Horny Bull 2759]

Kody plates a pair with a bases loaded single, 10-1 Texas

[Austin Orange 98]

I think I see what’s going on now. Pierce is going to have McKensie play every position in this game.

 

[Austin Orange 98]

Going to laugh my ass off if the offense run rules this game at 7 innings.  

[Horny Bull 2759]

Hamilton clears the bases with a triple, 13-1 Texas

[83Horn 1640]

3 run triple by Hamilton.  Glad to see him starting to hit.

[Austin Orange 98]

Hamilton needs a 2B for the cycle.

[Horny Bull 2759]

Texas leads 13-1 after 5

[GreenspointTexas 9598]

Whats the run rule for midweek games again?

[Pato del Muerto 52487]

So jake is going in order 2-9, then will pitch to close the game.  Better be prepared for a short game, or let ridgeway pitch until it’s 13-6. 

Edited April 18, 2018 by Pato del Muerto

[TwiceHorn 31440]

The run rule is always 10+ after 7.  I believe the coaches have to agree in advance that it will apply and it is customary to do so on days where one team is traveling for the game.

[GreenspointTexas 9598]

Thanks

[BERT 4358]

I see our mascot drunk David Ash is behind that plate again 

[brojangles2 786]

Jake has some damn good downward and backs for movement on the ball. I'm impressed. 

[TwiceHorn 31440]

So, that's kind of cool for McKenzie.  But it seems kind of gimmicky.  Would Augie have done this?

[GreenspointTexas 9598]

This game better not get extended here...

[Horny Bull 2759]

Texas wins 13-2 in 7. Jake McKenzie played all 9 positions in the process.

[B00M 6414]

Jake mckenzie.. played 9 positions in a 7 inning run rule win... catcher (watching muted with the wife, i called it here), 1st (started a key double play), 2nd (turned a nice DP catching the flip bare handed), 3rd, SS... then rotated thru the OF with each out in 6th inning when the run rule looked likely lol .. pitched final 2 outs in 7th. Crowd chanted "jake, jake, jake" after The Eyes

It was gimmicky, but it was unique. Jake bunted to move 2 runners into scoring position when we were up 7, so i think he honored Augie there. He used 5 gloves.
