Table set for Porter Brown

Sigh.

[jw4381 3073]

Or not.

[GreenspointTexas 9602]

Wtf

[jw4381 3073]

Is it just me, or does Porter not jack a double there against us last year for tcu?

[texastroubadour 1210]

A wasted inning

[HenryJames 66052]

Good at bat.

[zlavydra 2121]

9 innings against the Tiden bullpen over two nights. Two (2) hits.

2 quick outs for Hurley

Can I like this guy Hurley yet?

Rubber game tomorrow. We need to take this series

[Valmy77 13226]

Texas wins 4-2!

We need this one tomorrow.  Let's go Texas!

[jw4381 3073]

Yay

[ClubWhatever 12144]

Does Fullerton have a hand sign?

[Hookem2147 21273]

Win tomorrow and we accomplish what we all deemed acceptable at the start of the week, 2-2. Then we get a very manageable 12 game stretch before conference play.

Big one tomorrow.

[jw4381 3073]

3 wins today, right? That's good, right?

[Hookem2147 21273]

The pitching usage so far this weekend is probably going to end up working out nicely. Everyone will be available tomorrow except Hurley and we have two midweek games this week so Hurley could probably bounce back and start the Wednesday game after 3 days rest. 

[jw4381 3073]

Actually 7 wins. Not too shabby 

[SOBMarcos 60]

Why do “we need to take this series”?

Why do “we need to take this series”?

Because we need another win? ….And to shove the horns down on the mound Friday up their asses?

Because I think most of us enjoy watching Texas play postseason baseball.

Do you get the impression from reading this forum that any of actually enjoy that regardless of the outcome?

 Carlson still not back in the line up 

[Had Enough 2081]

Garret G is 0-13 in the last 3 games. 3 Ks. 5 LOB. As best I can tell, he hasn’t been on base in those games. He was productive versus IU. 2 RBIs on the season. His slash line is pretty poor.

Got to get it going.

I don't understand that at all. 

[Hookem2147 21273]

They seem to like playing Carlson against lefties so far.

[zlavydra 2121]

Looks like a bullpen game for CSF. Righty Evan Yates starting, but he's only appeared in 2 games so far.

Their two best relievers threw 40 pitches (Blood) and 30 pitches (Chester) on Friday. I’m sure they will try to squeeze an inning or two out of both today.

[jw4381 3073]

LFG

[Horny Bull 2759]

Kennedy starts the ballgame with a leadoff single.

[GreenspointTexas 9602]

That was fucking dumb

[texastroubadour 1210]

Well let’s get thrown out

[Valmy77 13226]

Man even Kennedy being thrown out now. Our team really sucks at stealing bases.

There’s a start 

[Valmy77 13226]

And of course we follow that up with a walk and a hit.

We don't just have a ton of offense Pierce, I really question this crazy reckless offensive strategy. Even with a high percentage success guy like EK we just cost ourselves a run.

[Horny Bull 2759]

Texas strands a pair T1.

[GreenspointTexas 9602]

We should be up 1-0

[Valmy77 13226]

Two hits and walk and no runs thanks to reckless base stealing.

If it was so critical to get EK to second, why not have DC bunt there?

Should we be sac bunting with one of the few guys in the lineup who actually might halfway worry an opposing team?

[Horny Bull 2759]

Sthele issues his first walk of the season.

[NorthLoop 14203]

Also thought EK was safe but nobody argued

Of course. If the strategy is to get lead off guys to second then you bunt whomever. That is what is going to get your guy to second.

Stealing when they are obsessively keeping your guy on first is probably not the way to do it.

[Horny Bull 2759]

Strikes would be nice.

[texastroubadour 1210]

THROW A STRIKE DUDE
