4 more times to bat. Feel good about us scoring 5+ runs.

do not feel good about preventing them from scoring 5+, let alone 1.

 

hopefully we find that 1 reliever from their bullpen that isn’t ready for the situation and gives us 2 or 3 free bases + a meatball before they do anything

If so, dumb yes but bullshit too. They’re protected from slides. You don’t dupe a guy by lying about that and damn near getting him hurt.

Can you find that business about lying to a baserunner in the rule book for me?  I must have missed that one …

One thing is for sure, getting upset about the Horns down only helps to peretuate it. If you want it to go away, then learn to ignore it. ... r even do it too, like someone was saying earlier about when we played at Arkansas last year. If we put our Horns up, down, sideways, or backwards all over the place, who else is gonna want to do it?

Whole thing is idiotic.  I went to the game in Dallas with all ISU and UT fans and when I got some horns up in my face I just did a horns up too.  Seeing the confusion is nice.  Although none of those fans had the room temp IQ I’m seeing in this crowd.  Yikes

Yea sorry that’s ridiculous. Don’t listen to the opposition. 

Yeah do we have any idea if that really happened? If so, yeah it's bush league, but you have to be smarter than that. And you don't stand up on any steal attempt unless a coach is yelling "up" at your dumb ass. Stupid.

You did. It’s right next to the obstruction rule when a base runner slows down in front of fielder.

Yeah it's a pretty 'special' crowd.

Umpire is shit

Yeah he's been inconsistent AF all day, esp on the outside corner for righties, and high pitches.

Thank goodness that one stayed in.

Just four innings of baseball left unless we man up right here and now. Who in burnt orange wants it as much as ECU does? Whatever passion we have remains very well hidden.

Olivarez can do it.

I'm fine if you are consistent. This zone is moving.

Exactly. And he's anything but consistent on the edges or even beyond. It's like a lottery.

If you’ve watched baseball, you know that courtesy is extended a shit ton. For safety purposes. You saw Hodos slide right? Awkward and some even commented that he could have gotten hurt.

I never said it was against the rules. It is chicken shit if that in fact occurred.

Doesn’t excuse Hodo. Or the ump. Or Pierce.

All this bitterness is going to get washed away when the tower is lit up for the track and field teams. 

And no, I’m not being serious. I just wish I was. I thought this team was going to be a juggernaut in the preseason. It felt like it started falling apart with Witt’s Tommy John, then Nixon lost his location, then…then…then. 

I hope this team can come back and win another tomorrow. It doesn’t feel real to be in this situation. UT sports isn’t the same to me without a dominant baseball program, which is what it felt like we had turned into. This season has been a bummer and a wake up call.

This ecu pitcher already has 4 strikeouts.  Terrible approach at the plate by Texas hitters has helped gift this series away...

we were gifted an easy regional.  might have been the easiest. we really shouldn't even be here.

The unwritten baseball rules generally go out the window in pressure games. We need to Be smarter

Barely above .500 on the road this year (13-10) even worse, 0-18 (?) when trailing after 7....

Better make something happen. 

Such high hopes at the beginning of the season.

Weak mental team. Not good.

We don’t seem like we want to be at the plate right now. 

Nah we just don’t have it working right now. I don’t see disinterest and I don’t see guys pressing. I’m seeing good ECU pitching.

We can't even get on base. This might be the worst this team has played all season. 

KSU and OSU series say hello. Fact is this season hasn’t been good, and is a major disappointment given where we started and that we finally have great bats.

why can shitty teams hit our shitty pitching but our great offense can't hit shitty pitching?

Eh it happens. But ECU isn't shitty so I don't get the relevance.
