O'Dowd couldn't even manage a chopper

[Hookem2147 21285]

That was a strike to Galvan last inning

[MuellerHorn 4246]

This strike zone difference is infuriating. The 1-2 pitch was another K missed for Texas.

At least Sthele got him looking on the 3-2.

What an awful 0-2 pitch.  WTF

How long did Witt last - what were his numbers?

Bout 5 mins, probably 7-8 inches 

[Hammerin Hank 1227]

Nice hit and run. Perfectly executed 

[Fletch 5800]

Beautiful hit and run. One of my favorite plays in baseball 

[Bevo&Pevo 5146]

Gotta little magic in the making.   Need to capitalize.

[ClubWhatever 12144]

Why take 2-0?

[ClubWhatever 12144]

Good job gG

[Fletch 5800]

I thought he got a lot more of that. Whatever. I’ll take it 

[hobbes2702 13033]

Damn. Was hoping for some sparkly eyes magic

He hit it well. Just straight to the centerfielder

Had the wind not been blowing in, I would have had sparkly pants.

I’m afraid we are watching the last few games of DC at Texas.

When I was 11 posting on hornfans I was called gay for referring to Thigpen as “sunshine”. The strides this community has made…

[ClubWhatever 12144]

Have to hold that

Man, as has been said, Galvan has some work to do on defense.

[Levi 2586]

Yeah that’s on Pierce 

[Hookem2147 21285]

It’s crunch time. The time for developing Galvan has passed. He will catch plenty of games this summer.

Oh we definitely are. Really need Powell to come back

And that’s an out at the plate with GG catching. Dammit. Love ya Pierce but wtf. This is pretty much a must win game. Not a fuck around Tuesday game against southwest who gives a shit U

Yep, GG shouldn't be DH'ing the rest of the season.

I mean have you seen them? You’re telling me you’re not swooning? 

Seriously I can’t believe we still are putting Galvan at catcher. We need to get a catcher in the portal. Galvan is a DH

Has O’Dowd been that closed all year or is that the camera angle throwing me off

He just started doing it.  The swing is the same though so it doesn’t matter.

Change up sped up his bat

[hobbes2702 13033]

Galvan apparently has never learned how to round 3rd

I think it’s a little more closed. Whatever works. 
 

and I guess it just worked 

[hobbes2702 13033]

Jeez let the crowd make the call for you 

[Fletch 5800]

I still hate you Daly but you got fucked there 

[Hookem2147 21285]

I definitely have more hope for O’Dowd moving forward (and potentially into next year) than I do Daly.

Umpire continues to have 2 different zones. We haven’t gotten the wide corner at all 

[Hookem2147 21285]

Guess we are trying to squeeze one more out of Sthele.

I bet Pierce rolls with them in ‘24.  Hilarity ensues.  Not

I hope Shojinaga sees we have a "need" and transfers.

Flores is going to slot in somewhere next year or he will leave. Really a question of if it is 3B or SS. That will be the domino that effects everything else. And I’m not inclined to let someone with his potential walk even if he hasn’t looked particularly good this year.

[Hookem2147 21285]

Babe Ruth leading off for Kansas 

[ClubWhatever 12144]

We just aren’t going to see if that guy can hit a curve are we

[MuellerHorn 4246]

Cool. Another free base.

Kash can diaf but yeah he’d be nice to have right now. Really don’t wanna lose Flores
