Having this scout guy talking is kind of distracting right now.

I kind of get it but you have to know the speed of your player.  that was never deep enough with even an average arm/throw.  make the pitcher throw some more pitches early in the game

Yeah it was kind of 50/50. Who knows? Maybe the right fielder air mails it but yeah in hindsight, make their pitcher face another guy

[83Horn 1656]

Nice 1,2,3 inning for the 'Horns.

[Horny Bull 2766]

1-2-3 inning for Madden.

I mean, theoretically, the guy in RF should be in RF because he can make that throw, and longer ones, on a line, every time.  Thinking he's gonna rainbow it or miss isn't a very good bet against a quality team like SCe.

[83Horn 1656]

Holy shit...just saw on the runner at the bottom of the screen that OkSt has a four pount lead over Baylor with less than a minute to play.

well this is south carolina, not TAMU CC.  my guess is their RF is gonna be pretty damn good.  

[Fletch 5802]

Yeah no I agree but I also get being aggressive early. Idk

It’s not like the NL with the P hitting next.  Pierce just took a guy out of scoring position with a numb nuts decision ...

maybe pierce thought he was coaching 10u and SC was hiding their worst fielder in right.

[Fletch 5802]

Christ how did Kennedy watch that go by

[zlavydra 2125]

Antico has had two miserable ABs

[TwiceHorn 31699]

Woof.

[Horny Bull 2766]

Texas goes 1-2-3, 1-1 after 3.

[Fletch 5802]

That was the most zubia at bat ever. Watch a hanger. Foul off a fast ball. Chase one in the dirt. Sigh 

[83Horn 1656]

It's 1-1 Keith

He was batting like .390 a few games ago and I still expected him to strike out swinging every time. It’s a sad state of affairs on the hitting side of things.

Madden looking more like himself now.

[Cousin Strawberry 1263]

Silas has a hose.

[83Horn 1656]

Wow...a 45 foot fastball

[dcar00 14616]

1-1 going to bottom 4

[Horny Bull 2766]

Madden gets a K to end the inning.

[83Horn 1656]

followed by a strike out to end the inning.

[Mo Horn 8899]

Ugly at bat

[zlavydra 2125]

4 in a row

[dcar00 14616]

holy shit.  ardoin down watching 3 strikes.

[Balcones 312]

7 strike outs through 3.1 innings? Record night maybe.

[dcar00 14616]

faltine single to left

[zlavydra 2125]

Faltine eats cookies.

[Horny Bull 2766]

Good start for Faltine.

Dude, did you watch the first 3 games?

[Balcones 312]

Wow! What an offensive shit show that part of the 4th inning.

[Horny Bull 2766]

1-1 after 4.

[dcar00 14616]

gonna need to win this 2-1?  Madden gonna need to go the distance again.  need 2 quick innings here.

[zlavydra 2125]

Not sure if Faltine was out there but it doesn't matter much if no one behind him makes contact

[TwiceHorn 31699]

Maybe Pierce's desperate and maniacal running decisions are based on the knowledge that we can't hit for shit and are going to need to manufacture runs.

[dcar00 14616]

got a call there

I would agree with this.  any reasonably good pitching makes us look foolish so far this year.

[zlavydra 2125]

Sweet Zubia D. Still 1-1.

[TwiceHorn 31699]

We are actually 18-22 on stolen bases before today.  That surprises the shit out of me.

[Horny Bull 2766]

Another 1-2-3 inning for Madden.

[zlavydra 2125]

Just confirmed return trip to Columbia next year? Nice. Three-hour drive.

Hodo maybe the first real impact underclassman legacy since Street?  I don't count the brothers Clemens as impact underclassmen.

Did the Houston catcher get all 4?

[Horny Bull 2766]

1-1 after 5.

[zlavydra 2125]

Perfect throw there.

[UnhappilyMarried 830]

Great, now I have to watch a brand new Kennedy AB to lead off next inning

I was skeptical about his hitting, but he has surprised me. Hopefully he can keep it up because his speed is legit.
