Alabama @ Texas Series Thread

[markstanco 12,586]

Saw this on the Alabama Rant board.  Clean up hitter.
#Alabama junior outfielder William Hamiter suffered a broken foot and will be out for the foreseeable future, according to sources close to the situation.

During the game? I was watching at a bar so there were distractions.

I remember they made some defensive changes during the game and thought it was weird. But I didn’t see anyone get hurt

[Pato del Muerto 52,538]

They did move cf to right, 2b to cf, and put that mustachioed freshman at 2nd- at an unusual time in the game like 4th or 5th inning. New 2b ended up with 2 real good at bats, one from each side. I was wondering why he wasn’t starting.

I wondered the same. He looks like he’s going to be a good ball player

Heading to the Disch for my first game of the season today. I expect the warmer weather will bring a little more offense for the Horns. I’m guessing Bama’s Sunday starter isn’t as good as Tanner Witt. Maybe Bama fans will be impressed 🤘🏼

I expect it's going to be packed.

It’s always 10-15 degrees colder at the Disch.

Not in June.

I’d like to see the science behind this claim

I’ve been going to games there since the 80s, and it always feels 10-15 degrees colder unless it’s summer. I’m guessing it’s due to the wind since the elevation is so much higher than downtown.

I don’t care what y’all wear to the game or if you don’t believe it.  Just sharing for those who get caught freezing their ass each your or letting their kids freeze.

Looks like the first one was a mistake:

This is true, it'll be 65 and sunny and in the stands feels like 50 and dropping.

Yeah Campbell 2nd seemed strange.

[zlavydra 2,123]

Makes more sense for Murphy to hit higher in the line up. Once Campbell starts raking, this will be an more exciting line up.

Beautiful day in the Disch for baseball

Hopefully with the bright sunshine, Melendez’s bat will wake up today.

[Horny Bull 2,766]

Quick inning for Witt.

[zlavydra 2,123]

Easy inning for Witt

[Fletch 5,800]

This is just unfair. A sure fire MLB pitcher(not sure what role he protects at.) as our Sunday dude

Well one thing is the clamshell keeps a lot of the stands in the shade for most games. 
 

but that north wind can just cruise on in over the left field wall.

His swing reminds me of Thigpen in a way. Short, compact with his hips getting into it. He’s gonna be a monster once he settles in

Did Daly go to HS with any of the Gumpers? It's a mystery.

Still better than hearing Galindo endlessly talking about wanting someone to hit the Taco Shack sign for free tacos.

Witt cruises through 2 innings with 21 pitches.

[Pato del Muerto 52,538]

After that last strikeout I had typed up a post about how he needed to put hitters away earlier, then I looked up and he had 5 outs in 16 pitches- and now 6 outs in 21 pitches. So well done TW.

Yeah, let's pour it on!

[zlavydra 2,123]

Todd's given him 2 strikes

Good god no telling how fucking annoying this high school shit would be with Galindo. 
 

And the free tacos thing always cracks me up. “Yayyyy!!!! We get a $3.25 taco for free!!!” Fuck that. Get the yellow rose to sponsor. Any homer that hits the target gets a night of free vip services for any adult in attendance. And like a Texas baseball teddy bear or something for the kids 

[Dahobbs 17,627]

Witt not fucking around.

It’s the coldest place on the planet in the early months of the season. Almost always windy and if you’re in the shade under the roof it’s def cold.

[ztejas 43,524]

Campbell needs to get going.

[Pato del Muerto 52,538]

Lots of loud outs for us so far along with the singles

[Bevo&Pevo 5,213]

well that sucked. we still look good though.
