Mac gets out of a bases loaded jam

She definitely got squeezed on a few pitches but her and Stewie should have a better idea now of the HPU’s zone

What a bizarre 2nd inning so far 

They took a long time to call that. It obviously hit the runner

UTA CF making some web gems. Texas up 2-0 on an RBI groundout and an RBI sac fly

shocker, she’s an Austin product. Gotta show off against Texas - bet we were her dream school

Mitchell RBI double over the head of Corona 

Run-rule territory 

Damn that was a snag by the pitcher, wow

I think it’s a good thing when the goal is to end games early. Forget just winning 

I think the message will be putting the kill shot when you have the chance. Gotta finish games

Texas wins 8-1 and goes to Houston (fuck the Big 12 for making us play every single sport at UH this year) to open Big 12 play Friday to Sunday

So last night they showed Baylea Brandon and Alyssa Popelka in the OF watching the game.  Love having some players we wanted to stick around still showing support!

Though I thought Popelka was going to UW - she isn't on the roster. UW announced her signing on July 31.  Wonder what happened there...

I had heard from another board she was not on the roster there.  Not sure what happened.

On another note, looks like they make even our former players sit in the cheap seats.

I went googling and found no reason.  Was she a grad transfer?  Maybe she just quit and got a job.   Same with Courtney Day.

Would not surprise me. Have wondered if that’s why Luke Storm (baseball transfer) quit suddenly as well. The job offer may have been more lucrative or they weren’t willing to defer it for 6 months so they could play ball

The coach at Ole Miss is apparently a real bitch/ahole and tons of players have left recently.  This board claims the coach and Day did not get along and Day told her to shove it.

Good for Courtney. Students athletes shouldn’t take that shit.

Popelka's mother is battling cancer. Wouldn't be shocked to hear she stayed home to be close to her.

I was really surprised she went up there in the first place because of that, but I think I read elsewhere she left a few months ago.

Awful to hear but good that she’s staying close to family

Loeb mentioned Bella's progression and it's beautiful:

.221 in 2021 (at Arizona)

.276 in 2022 (first year at Texas)

.344 last year

.405 this year

She was hitting .302 before the season ended in 2020, but can't really "count" that because no idea what her end of season stats would be

77 gets the start. Interesting lineup

Martinez back at SS. Washington at 2B. Goode at 1B. Mitchell DP. No Stewie…
