Woof. Back to back losses for Texas

I love how high our standards are that back to back 1 run extra inning losses to 2 extremely elite pitchers is “woof.”

Mike set the bar high. Our defense needs to tighten up in these games (or the 80th year in a row). 

The Maloney bunt was a good call. The Dayton bunt was just giving up an out to get a runner to third. Would have actually made an attempt to hit it

Getting your ass kicked out of the softball stadium.  Well done, Alabama fan.

Actually, it was two Texas fans sitting with the wife of Coach White and it had to be the dumbest thing I've ever seen.

So the red-headed student (?) sitting behind the home plate aisle area that throws t-shirts to the crowd after every strike out took a break and left her post. Between innings, the PA plays Cotton Eyed Joe and the girl is still nowhere to be found.  The female fan, a 40 something looking lady, goes and get 5 or 6 T-Shirts and throws them into the cheering crowd and receives a standing ovation for her efforts. Red head girl returns and is angry and seeks out event security. The event security wants to toss the woman and her husband, but the crowd is booing loudly. At one point, the father of Katie Cimusz walks over and pulls out his wallet and offers to pay for the shirts. The security people finally give up and walk away. The husband of the woman who tossed the shirts retrieves a shirt that had been thrown into the crowd, walks back to where red haired girl is and tosses the shirt back to her. Red hair girl loses her shit and starts screaming for security who then return and toss the woman and her husband much to the dismay of the booing crowd. Later after a strike out, red haired girl stands up to toss a shirt into the crowd and is booed loudly so she shits back down. She then gives the rest of the shirts to random kids who walk up and ask for one. She was then escorted out by event security to another loud chorus of boos.  The man and wife who were tossed by security then went to the left field fence area and hung out with Sophia Simpsons dad for the remainder of the game.

I'm sure CDC heard about the situation early this morning.  If I'm making the call, red haired girl would never again set foot inside the softball stadium. Worst case of mishandled PR I have ever witnessed.

Thanks for sharing.   Hopefully,  an isolated incident.   Before there were at least 3 students who do the in game promotions plus a supervisor.  The supervisor directed the different promotions and the students.   The students appeared to be chosen and normally have a great personality and a "fans first" attitude.

Perhaps that has changed and now promotions are administered by a third party vendor in lieu of UT Students.

It’s a good thing Bevo’s a steer because SWTSTC stole everything but his balls …

No joke.  We gave up 6 steals which is a third of our total for the year.  On the other hand we’ve stolen twice as many as our opponents, with about the same CS rate.  Seems it’s pretty easy to steal in this game if you can get in base and have decent speed.

This weekend's tournamnet looks pretty pathetic. 

Friday 1pm - Marist (RPI 220)
Friday 6pm - USF (RPI 83)
Saturday 1pm - Leigh (RPI 63)
Saturday 6pm - Iowa (RPI 104)
Sunday 11:30am - USF (RPI 83)

Followed up a midweek versus SFA (RPI 145) and then host Texas Tech (RPI 65) before the *big weekend* in Norman

Sophia can look good for stretches and then she loses focus or tires and the wheels kinda fall off.  So yeah, bullpen makes sense.  

The same way I don’t like Morgan out of the pen as much. I prefer her to start games. Czech can do both. Citlaly is learning to do both

I love Czech,  but that is the 7th HR she has given up this year (Simpson 2,  Morgan, Gutierrez 3)

Which gets us back to the convo of using Simpson only in relief.

Two out error by Goode in the 3rd which led to 2 unearned was key.

Speaking of Goode, she has fallen off hard the past couple of weeks at the plate. Wasn't surprised at all she was dropped from leadoff batter down to the 3rd spot. Hopefully she finds her confidence and swing again soon. I'm sure she will
