Islanders load the bases with 1 out. First big jam of the season.

[HuntinHorn 986]

Horns D shitting the bed

[David Dennison 18940]

These guys want to go home.

The weather won't be any better this weekend against 'Bama.  They need to get the fuck over it.

[Valmy77 13251]

It's alright guys, get the out.

4-2 Texas. Two down. Let's get out of this.

At least Faltine does.

Exactly. Run around the outfield between innings to get warmed up if you have to.

[Valmy77 13251]

Damn. Tied up. Gut check time.

[HuntinHorn 986]

Furk..

[Lat22 4015]

Tip of the cap.

[Scraps 13570]

Damn. Tied up. Gut check time.

Blame 3putt

[Valmy77 13251]

Not a cold weather team. Good thing the CWS is in June.

[TrashMaster G 17581]

All right, let's go get those runs back.

[perfectchaos007 6677]

New ballgame in the 6th inning

[Valmy77 13251]

Ok got out of it. Enough BS, let's win this.

[HuntinHorn 986]

4 runs on 1 hit… ridiculous

[Fletch 5800]

I’ll give faltine and Silas a pass tonight. Cold as fuck, maybe a little moisture, 5 games in 6 days and we’ve won big all 5 games. Easy to come out flat on a day like today. And everyone has bad games

Of course that error came back to bite us, but he and Silas will be locked in when it matters 

[Lat22 4015]

Blame 3putt

Or Faltine.

Three errors will do that.

[Valmy77 13251]

I am not going to blame Faltine for this...unless we lose.

[HuntinHorn 986]

Three errors will do that.

Hence ridiculous..

The field turf should help. And like I said up above, they may just be a tad worn out and flat today and probably figured they could half ass and win this easily. We’ll wake up and win this game . Then this weekend, they’ll be focused and locked in

[CowtownHorn 5126]

That a boy Hodo!

Surly expects a fuckin' Texas win...  🤘

[OU Sucks 8893]

Am I hallucinating or did the guy just say nobody on?

[Valmy77 13251]

I thought Kennedy had that beat out for sure. Nice play pitcher.

Runner on third, one down.

Just give us a deep fly Ivan!

Melendez Ks.

Its all up to Daly.

[TrashMaster G 17581]

Too many LOB.

[ConferenceRoom 6144]

Those were some terrible at bats.

[perfectchaos007 6677]

We're out hitting Corpus 8-1 but its a tie game...

[Valmy77 13251]

Damn it. Wasted that lead off double.

[Lat22 4015]

Why does the cameraman insist on showing the guy crossing the plate instead of the play at first? He clearly doesn’t know a thing about baseball.

[OU Sucks 8893]

Evins Ass Man could've had better at bats than we just had.

Maybe it's a camerawoman

It's not the cameraman, it's the director.  They had a camera on the runner/1B.

Yeah, I'm sure Coach Pierce will use the early part of this game as a learning tool -- crazy stats.  

[Fletch 5800]

Also, anyone else think Daly should be in the 3hole with Ivan as the clean up? Hodo is looking like a natural lead off man, Kennedy is looking like he’s gonna have a hell of a season, or at the very least get on base a lot. Daly is one of our better bunters and contact hitter. 3 straight fast, disciplined in the box, contact hitters then let Ivan clean up 

[Fletch 5800]

Fucking squeezing the zone ehh?

Yep, flip Daly and Melendez.

In fact, I thought the lineup was in error the first Rice game when they showed in on LHN.

Not a fan of Ivan in 3rd spot -- need a hitter that doesn't strike out...

[OB3 3629]

Nice job Mess! That’s how you drive someone in

[OB3 3629]

Faltine looks like he’s wanting to walk instead of wanting to go up there and swing it

Faltine needs to shorten his swing and reduce the number of strikeouts.  More contact to improve chances of getting on base...

Sounds like something a robot would say 

[ConferenceRoom 6144]

The course. Looks good. My swing. Feels good. I like. My chances.

[Bevo&Pevo 5212]

Luke is facing the 2-3-4 hitters this inning.  Need to get through this one.

Exactly. Why Daly hitting 3rd who can bunt and pretty much always makes contact is ideal. Hodo is gonna have an .840 or so ops, any ball Kennedy hits on the ground has a very chance to be a hit or an error by a rushing shortstop. His ops should be at least .790 or so. So yeah an ocean of options with that top of the order with maybe the best power hitter in college baseball hitting 4th. My ideal 5-9 would be something like Todd-Messinger/Stehly-silas-Campbell-faltine
