[Rickylovesweed 15570]

Just keep throwing strikes. They can't hit you.

I’ll take 1 more run and be thrilled 

[Gut Wagon 8219]

Great work, Teagan. I'm a nervous wreck watching her constantly fall behind, but she's a bulldog. 

[LTtxfan 50035]

Score runs Texas!!! 🤘

[FloridaHorn 4887]

Great defensive stamd! Now get an insurance run or two.

[Mo Horn 8939]

From the rulebook

. If the ball is merely held in the fielder’s arm(s) or prevented from dropping to the ground 
by some part of the fielder’s body, equipment, or clothing, the catch is not completed until 
the ball is in the grasp of the fielder’s hand(s) or glove.

I said before the game that first one to 2 wins, but I wouldn’t mind an extra one.

Strange rule but okay. Not sure if Mia fucked up the throw or Cap fucked up the catch, but glad it didn’t hurt us

Get some insurance runs!

3rd base has given us 2 or 3 borderline check swings

Naw... those were legit swings.  Glad he's doing his job

Someone has to, because HPU isn’t doing his

Okie dokie

[LTtxfan 50035]

C'mon Mike, 2-0 count leadoff hitter should take a pitch.

Damn we are giving runners to tree, and surrendering outs

Interesting….I have never seen that called before and I don’t understand the difference between a batted and thrown ball.

[Js1 87287]

2-0 Texas after 5

[LTtxfan 50035]

No stress on tree from our offense for a 2nd straight inning.  Not sure why we aren't taking more pitches and making their pitcher work.

I was just speculating on battex v thrown.  probably never see that because if a fly ball is trapped by a player it eventually gets to his/her hand.

You have to be aggressive early in the count against Canada…if she gets ahead, she is almost unhittable 

[LTtxfan 50035]

Texas winning scoreboard, but Tree applying a lot more stress in ABs than Horns.

Glad Texas is up... lots of mistakes made so far by Longhorns.

Yeah, but letting her throw so few pitches is terrible...

Difference would be that on a batted ball the out is not official until it held by the hand or glove. On a tag up situation the tag up is on first contact of the ball. On this particular play 2b needed to have the ball in her hand or glove prior to runner touching 2nd base

They're facing the best pitcher in the country. This is how Texas was gonna have to win tonight. 

[LTtxfan 50035]

Throw strikes PK... 

[bschoolprof 6352]

throw strikes

[Mo Horn 8939]

Walks are no bueno

[bschoolprof 6352]

[Kel Varnsen 8749]

She walks too many

I dnt understand, throw strikes babygirl

That’s stupid that doesn’t count as possession. What’s the difference between your glove and pinning the ball to your body?

True but as the 2nd baseman you have one job there, get the out. She must make that catch, cleanly. 

Stewart needs to trust what she sees. She's plenty athletic to react, her confidence is visibly low at the plate and field.

If you think our ABs in last few innings are quality ABs, then we are just in disagreement I guess.  Lead off fast runner with 2-0 count should not be swinging for Texas.

Bring in Mac if she walks another

She’s gonna close this bitch out 

[bschoolprof 6352]

atwood needs to squeeze it.  she does that shit way too much.  

[FloridaHorn 4887]

WTF Reese? That’s 2 or 3 tonight.

[Kel Varnsen 8749]

Is that a new glove or something?

[Js1 87287]

Come on TK, bear down. Trust your stuff 

[bschoolprof 6352]

[TexasIsBetter 275]

SWEEP THE LEG 

[The_Great_Hornsby 3614]

I guess the logic in throwing Kavan today is that she has a riseball and Stanford's offense is kinda shitty and probably cant punish it. But the cowgirls will be more likely to punish it so they will want CG and MM for tomorrow?

Canady does this to everyone. 

Her ERA is 0.65 and she leads the country in strikeouts for a reason. She's filthy.

We only scored 3 on her in Austin too

Great pitch

[Kel Varnsen 8749]

Surprised he called that

[bschoolprof 6352]

we benefitted from ump's shitty zone there.
