This dude's strike zone is about as big as his dick.

Thought this for a while.  I’m not sure if Pierce has him as some pet project or what.  

Yeah Pierce seems loyal to his upper class underachievers till it starts costing us like this then he makes changes. Did it with Fields, Ridgeway, Nixon. Sure I’m missing some. But he’s also done great at developing. Like Bocchi and Andy McGuire 

Fuck this ump  4 straight strikes 

 

[MuellerHorn 4,256]

Sthele can't lose it here.

Keep throwing changes.

[Hookem2147 21,344]

Nice job Sthele

[MuellerHorn 4,256]

Hell yes, Sthele!

[Fletch 5,800]

Fuck you Kash, fucking pussy

Thought the same thing and then he blew it by him.  I would have called a change and I bet he still strikes out.

Is the ump that aggy fuckstick?

Yeah Kash is showing today why he wasn’t annoyed the starter. He’s talented but still has a long ways to go

He seems great at keying in on the fastball, but he can't hit off-speed stuff, as @Fletch said, and he chases a ton of pitches outside the zone. He's just an immature hitter at this juncture. I'm sure he'll rake next year.

Yak

[hobbes2702 13,049]

Needed that 

[BigOrange1 6,442]

that's a nice first hit of the game.

[Fletch 5,800]

Galvan!!!!!

No.  But googling him, he was an MLB umpire 10 years ago.  Led the league in challenge reversals one year. 

[Fletch 5,800]

He needs more at bats. Kids got some pop 

[BigOrange1 6,442]

holy fuck @ that strike 2 call after some of the shit he didn't call in the top half of the inning.

[texastroubadour 1,216]

Pierce needs to be in that guys face NOW

[ClubWhatever 12,152]

That exact pitch was a ball for Sthele

[Fletch 5,800]

Can we have their shortstop and Kash back please?

[Fletch 5,800]

How was that not a strike. Jesus this fucking ump 

[Fletch 5,800]

Lbj should’ve started this inning 

[Hookem2147 21,344]

If we somehow squeeze this inning out of Sthele that would be big.

[Pato del Muerto 52,531]

Will we have a starter go 7 this year? It feels so far away and they always are at 50 after 3. 

[MuellerHorn 4,256]

Man, if the lineup keeps progressing and we get a value-add Witt back, this team could be in a good spot in a month.

And, of course, as soon as I say this, Sthele leaves one up.

I like that Pierce went and got him. He doesn't do that in this situation in the past with Sthele. Pierce knows he needs this series for RPI.

Nevermind. I like this move with LBJ. Chase the series win today when it is in front of you.

[texastroubadour 1,216]

The home plate ump part of chasing Stehle

Have to somehow find a way to win this series or the one in Stillwater next week. You take one of those series and you sitting in a pretty good spot with probably a RPI that is hovering around top 30.

Hope we win both.

How did we not get him at home

Furk

[Had Enough 2,083]

Was Tracer ever an option to be a Longhorn?

He’s pretty local to Austin.

[Hookem2147 21,344]

This Hester dude is a damn pest. OBP above .500 on the year.

Went to HS at Cameron Yoe. Looks like he committed to Tech in May of 2020.

[Valmy77 13,247]

Ok let's go! Time to get some hits.

[texastroubadour 1,216]

Fuck

[GreenspointTexas 9,662]

That was fucking retarded

[Valmy77 13,247]

Damn it!

[ClubWhatever 12,152]

that’s a killer.  Man 

[hobbes2702 13,049]

Sweet baserunning. I hate that DP still coaches 3rd

[perfectchaos007 6,677]

Baserunning smh

[Hookem2147 21,344]

Powell didn’t even look at Pierce. Went on his own. Damnit damnit damnit.

[Had Enough 2,083]

Seems like a guy you’d want. I wouldn’t expect a Cameron kid to head to Tech but he stayed locked in for awhile.

[Fletch 5,800]

This strike zone is so stupid 

[BarthHollamew 227]

Is it me or do we seem to make more base running mistakes than other teams . . . including last year.  Feels like my church softball team sometimes.

Tech made some pretty stupid ones yesterday...made me feel a little bit better.

[texastroubadour 1,216]

Oh to have that other run

[Valmy77 13,247]

Brown!

[MuellerHorn 4,256]

Damn, would be a tie ballgame. Stupid ass base running mistakes, man.
