BYU @ Texas - Wed - Saturday Series Thread

I wasn't able to watch yesterday but scoring 12 with one extra base hit is kind of unusual.  Sure beats scoring none with 2 hits total though.

Looking at the 2021 schedule on texassports.

When you click on "Houston" (next week's opponent) you are directed to a broken link on the Houston Community College website. Lulz.

The UH website developer also builds temporary bleachers as a side-hustle.  I can make a referral if you're interested in either (I get a commission)

I only saw the first 5 innings, but the Mormons were serving up some meatballs. A little concerning that we didn't crush more of them, but progress is being made.

Five Ks in each of the last two games.  That's progress.

Yep. Not to mention we hit a couple warning track shots and were actually squaring the ball up and taking good hacks. If we can get our bats going, we’re gonna have a hell of a year. Got a great pitching staff and we finally have a good defensive infield with some serious speed in the outfield

True.

3 SF, 2 SH, and 5 errors by BYU helps the cause.

Best hitter should be in the 3 hole.  DH should not be batting in the 6 hole.  Replace your DH if he is not worth batting in 3 or 4 hole.

Actually, most DH hit 4, 5, or 6---typically 5th (depending on if he's lefty or right obviously and who you're facing as a starter).  6th isn't ideal, but it's not terribly uncommon.  It's Longhorn teams of recent years where our DH is batting 2nd, 7th or 8th that's fucked up.  

Actually put the fucking DH wherever you want as long as he can hit his weight which has been an incredible fucking challenge at UT the last 10 years.

Kennedy batting 8th with all of his speed??

WTF

He’s not seeing the ball that well. Move him down in the order to take some pressure off. Not to mention Hodo is pretty fast too

Agreed. Maybe this will jump start his bat.

Anyone questioning lineup decisions in game 6 is fucking nuts. The early season, and especially this BYU series, is for tinkering with the lineup and bullpen so you know how you want to generally roll once conference play comes around.

^seriously. This about getting reps and hopefully some easy wins. Our lineup won’t be solidified till conference playoff. Christ is this some of yalls first year watching college baseball?
