Palo Alto Super Regional: Texas @ Stanford

[WBT 20629]

Didn't have much of a chance against that change

[Levi 2588]

Porter not seeing the ball well today. 

[AUS-97HORN 11809]

we are so anti-clutch this game.  O-fer the day W RISP

That'll about do it.

[Hank_Hill 18890]

Bruno has the dumbest fucking face.

[Pato del Muerto 52530]

You are telling me that a catcher that receives in that leg out position can throw someone out stealing?

[GreenspointTexas 9662]

To be fair, we are only averaging 4 runs a game in the post season anyway

He looks like a Bruno.

Time to start drinking heavily

[MirrOlure 14800]

Great. We’ve got EK, then guys that will be professionals in something other than sports

Damnit...that was it, that was the chance.  

Oh, yeah? Just wait until Daly hits one to Cupertino in the 9th.

[Valmy77 13247]

Ok Ace, shut them down. Give us a chance in the 9th.

if the top of the order isn't hitting we pretty much have no chance.

Daly is a trash starting short stop for a program like Texas. I'm not even sure what the fuck you're talking about. I've really enjoyed this season that doesn't mean I think we shouldn't have a legitimate infield. Daly is absolutely not a legitimate guy that the University of Texas should have playing short stop. 

He's playing because he IS a legitimate infielder. 

Jalin and Gumbo were both given playing time and neither right now can do on the field what Daly does. This isn't MLB, can't go out mid season and call up a JUCO player or trade with someone in the SEC.  Like it or not, he is out there today, will be tomorrow, and any other games we have remaining.

I've been gunning for that all day and now you tell me I lose in the 8th inning?

Heavily was the key word in that phrase.

Bad start.

[texastroubadour 1216]

Is this when they score 4 to win 9-2?

[Valmy77 13247]

Good bunt Tree. Augie approves.

I understand why he's playing what I don't understand is why we don't have a better option on the roster.

I meant up in the ninth. Thought that could’ve been inferred.

Stiff competition during playoffs. Even on the boards.

OK but this has been the situation since the beginning of the year.

Because for two years we had a legit mlb prospect there, a CWS caliber defensive player behind him that didn’t pan out at the plate this year, and a frosh all star that needs an off season to develop?

There we go Ace.

One more.

I don't really understand what the rest of you are missing here.

Pretty simple nowadays....every kid THINKS they should come in and play automatically whether there is a 2 or 3 year STARTER in front of them or not. Lots don't come in now because they shy from competition.

Gavin Kash is the perfect example of that.

Dumbass who thought he should be playing in front of the Golden Spikes Award winner

Good job Ace.

Ok need a miracle. 

[dcar00 14306]

wow.  hot corner.

[Wishbone 4762]

Okay. No problem. Get 4. 😁

I've been musing about it all season. This is just my latest frustration. 

[Gatorubet 30254]

Nice grab.  C’mon Horns!

[Mo Horn 8852]

Do we have some 9th inning, bottom of the lineup, magic?

Why you need to bitch about it all season

[chase25 2048]

Smart by Pierce to give Ace an inning considering he hasn’t pitched since West Virginia. Pretty much a 3 man bullpen at the moment with Morehouse, Hurley and Whitehead. Then Sthele and Duplantier if you have no other option

what were missing is why you are asking because nothing has changed since the beginning of the year.  there isn't a better option and hasn't been.

[OU Sucks 8889]

Just need murderers' row to come through.  Oh I'm sorry, I misread my notes....murdered row.

Because it's unacceptable.

I like Ace. He’s going to develop into a strong reliever.

It’s also not that far off, his glove is great. His bat didn’t develop this year. Shit happens. 

[Valmy77 13247]

Let go EK! Get on base!
