3 errors

[BarthHollamew 237]

Stopped watching the hoops game cuz Horns have been outscored 51-24 since having an 18-4 lead early.  I think I make them nervous when I watch.  

[Hookem2147 21,355]

Leadoff walk after being staked to a 5-1 lead. Fun.

[zlavydra 2,123]

Damn, i thought that was going to bounce off the scoreboard.

I started watching it but even when we were kicking their ass I didn't find it much fun. I just hate being reminded that Baylor exists I guess.

Don't worry. Dre has got this.

[Valmy77 13,273]

Or maybe not. Come on Dre, I had been bragging on you.

dont bring your stink here

[Valmy77 13,273]

Can somebody here throw a strike? Starting to get bad flashbacks to last season.

[shadow_operative2.0 16,025]

He looked safe. 

[WBT 20,668]

Bases loaded dp for errbody

[Valmy77 13,273]

Check out Thomas at first base! Beautiful play!

Ah nevermind. He didn't get him.

Still...nice play.

[WBT 20,668]

damn, safe

[Valmy77 13,273]

Got out of it with only one run given up.

Still, hate to see all these walks.

[shadow_operative2.0 16,025]

He needs a new T sticker now. 

[Spaceman_Spiff 121]

What was that

[Valmy77 13,273]

I think EK should bunt here.

[Pato del Muerto 52,598]

How was that not a strike?  He damn sure offered. 

[shadow_operative2.0 16,025]

That was about as horrific of an AB as possible. 

[WBT 20,668]

Jeez, good job, good effort EK

[shadow_operative2.0 16,025]

Damn, their 2B is awful. 

Edited February 25, 2023 by shadow_operative2.0
Guess he’s a new one. They both suck.

[Valmy77 13,273]

Well that went badly.

[Pato del Muerto 52,598]

“Not going to overpower you” is exactly what I want to hear about a reliever.

He looked pretty overpowering to me.

Granted Indiana isn't very good.

Shawon Dunston talk not going away.

Another great inning by Burke!

Still 5-2 Texas going to the bottom of the 8th.

[troph 24,905]

I like this.

I’m listening not watching but I heard sinker and slider and that’s exactly the kind of pitches you want out of the pen if you aren’t throwing heat. Start out looking fat and then In the dirt or wide and low out of the zone. 

[Spaceman_Spiff 121]

Good work Burke

[Bevo&Pevo 5,218]

Burke bringing the heater.

[Valmy77 13,273]

Burke strikes out that Hoosier on about 15 pitches.

Indiana down to its last out.

[shadow_operative2.0 16,025]

Good job, boys. 

[Valmy77 13,273]

Texas wins it and moves to 3-3 on the season.

Complete the sweep tomorrow at noon.

[elfenix 34,332]

[VirginiaLonghorn 4,781]

Good win.  Burke done good. 

[Bevo&Pevo 5,218]

We lost our first two games by one run each and against top 10 teams.  I'm thinking we are gonna be just fine as the season goes on.  Burke looked good closing today.

Solid win.  Sweep is still in play for tomorrow.

Hook 'Em.

Missouri is not ranked. Vandy is in the top 10 and spanked us 12-2.

Let’s hope. Burke was niiiiiice! 

[hobbes2702 13,073]

I’m very glad we won and it was great being back at the disch.

We have got to do more on offense if we want to win. We can’t rely on 3 errors to score runs

Portland working on a sweep of aggsy tomorrow.

That's right, I had it mixed in my feeble decrepit mind.  I stand corrected.

They’re going to have to be aggressive at the plate and put balls in play. We need to have the highest percentage for putting balls in play which may lead to runs like today but hopefully as the season progresses hits start to be normalized with runners in scoring position.  This lineup just doesn’t have the juice like we saw last year but they have at least shown the ability to hit the ball hard, and put runners in scoring position through small ball.

I'd like to get one of these mythical "6 run texas games against good opponents or conference foes" before conference play thank you very much..

I’d like to see us start being really aggressive on the bases (not the stupid shit we do) with hit and runs, steals, etc. There was a situation today with EK on 3rd and DC on 1st. I would love to see us be willing to put DC in motion and pressure the defense with two guys that athletic. We need to manufacture runs because we don’t have big sticks
