Texas @ College of Charleston/Citadel - March 15/16 - Midweek Thread

[Valmy77 13226]

Yes....walk Silas to get to Stehly...bold strategy Citadel.

[zlavydra 2121]

This guy needs to revert to his mean quickly 

[Valmy77 13226]

Jesus even Stehly is striking out.

Ok well hope our pitchers have a good outing today.

[David Dennison 18860]

Womp womp.

[zlavydra 2121]

Fucking meatball right down the middle.

Nice hit for Ivan to start his game.

Seems to be the only one that can hit lately.

The problem is he also has a history of being streaky.

Made Hodo look like a chump.

That hasn't exactly been difficult lately.

[Horny Bull 2759]

First inning pitching has not been good on this road trip. Would be nice to start today with a zero.

[OB3 3625]

The wall is the foul line?!

WELL NOW WOULD BE A GOOD TIME TO START ONE

And Hodo started the season looking like he was going to have a monster season. Crazy how fast everybody went cold all at once...except Ivan.

[OB3 3625]

Over the plate on 0-2

Apparently

[zlavydra 2121]

Didn't Hodo have 3 or 4 hits Saturday?

You're allowed to hit those?

hmmm, I did.  those guys had great years .914 and .990 OPS respectively and they had a lot of experience.  Antico was almost like having a 3 hole hitter lead off and he was murder on the bases.

Pierce has his work cut out for him.  he's got 3 hitters who are almost auto outs and lost a guy who in theory could be a friday type starter had he kept progressing.

Goal now is to host a regional and hope this team can do what Texas does by the end of the year.  

Mississippi State is 11-7, Vandy is 13-2 but have really only played Ok State and dropped 2 to them.  It's difficult to get back and unfortunately its about 5x harder now.

Let's not forget that this time last year, and for quite a while, we were all kind of wtf'ing Mike Antico.  He turned it on at the end.

Anticout

Good fucking God we can't do anything easily right now.

There was also some "the schedule is too damn hard", if I remember correctly...

Antico found a way to get on base (when he wasn't hitting 280-foot fly balls).

I'm not trying to bag on Hodo. Just joking that he's had some rough ABs just like everyone else lately. 

[ztejas 43450]

Fucking unbelievable. 

[Horny Bull 2759]

3-0

[zlavydra 2121]

Deja Vu?

[OB3 3625]

Here we go again

[TwiceHorn 31472]

Whoops.

We have gone from fun to watch to unwatchable.

[HenryJames 66052]

Stewart can only throw his fastball for strikes so they’re sitting on it.

[David Dennison 18860]

I mean, if you're going to throw meatballs over the plate.

We can't have nice things, I suppose.

[zlavydra 2121]

I thought that was going to end up in the Atlantic, but it barely cleared the wall. Odd

Except that time

[HenryJames 66052]

If he can throw that breaking ball…

[rivin 199]

Life is pain

[VirginiaLonghorn 4771]

Texas suits up about 50 guys and only 3 can pitch (as opposed to throw)?  Fucking pitiful …

[Helobious 9454]

Citadel lost to a team called USC-Upstate earlier this month. Hope they’re not on our schedule.

[Hookem2147 21285]

Citadel rolling out their lineup with all the left handed hitters

The Big 12 schedule is going to be brutal if this staff can't get it together.

[Valmy77 13226]

Man so much for hoping for a good day from our pitching staff. Here we go again.

Well O'Dowd walking is a nice start.

Weekday away games in a corner of the country, and add a #1 ranking target on your back. Gus never did that even with his bad teams when I started watching them play.

[jw4381 3074]

Blaaaaarrrrrggggghhhhh

Just teeing off.
