Too easy.

[Kel Varnsen 8430]

Not our day

[Js1 85085]

Welp, I don’t have hope we come back in this one. Guess we have to play from behind in this series. 

[Cairn Horn88 8162]

Clueless.

[SameSame 1692]

If the middle doesn't get it done this weekend, I just don't see all the lefties doing much.  

[HuntinHorn 975]

Getting embarrassed at the plate

[D3zii 3641]

Damn do we even want to be here?! 

[Gut Wagon 8052]

I'm hoping to see a little bunt action next time we're up. But first, let's make sure we're only down 3.

I’ve been waiting for us to go to this honestly 

[bschoolprof 6232]

I've seen enough.  We're done in this one.  Just playing dumb and scared.  

Except for 2022, we have not been clutch in the postseason under MW.  

Two biggest things that are killing us:

1) shaky pitching

2) lack of adjustments in hitting.  Is anyone shocked lefty Kennedy is giving us trouble?  

 

[Cairn Horn88 8162]

Well, we gotta beat her to get to OKC….and we’ve known for a week she was coming….we should have had Cat pitching to us in practice.

We've been mixing in small ball all year.  I have no idea why we didn't go to it here.  Our coaches thought (unwisely obviously) we could hit her.  

[BurntOrange&White 39567]

Mother fucker

[Pancho 44437]

That might do it

[HuntinHorn 975]

Well this game is shit and shot!!

[D3zii 3641]

Good morning

good afternoon 

good night 

 

lol Jesus 

[Kel Varnsen 8430]

Embarrassed by aggy

Edited May 24 by Kel Varnsen

[torre 1284]

The scouting report on how to pitch to Cannon is in error.

[TrashMaster G 17385]

They are pitching around Reese. Why aren't we pitching around that girl?

[Cairn Horn88 8162]

That pitch was up and it has to stay down.  That’ll just about do it.

[DigDug 1649]

This is a butt kicking now.  Better come out tomorrow with some emotion and focus.

 

[texastroubadour 1203]

Jesus Christ. Aggy?

[Js1 85085]

Pathetic. Mike did not have this team prepared at all 

[Cairn Horn88 8162]

They’ll definitely put this game on the wall.

[Gut Wagon 8052]

I didn't think that was such a terrible pitch. The first one she hit definitely was. Give credit/blame where due. 

 

[D3zii 3641]

If I was A&M I’d ride Kennedy all weekend until we show we can hit her

[SameSame 1692]

At least it's not a 1 and done.

That’s what they’ll do too

[Cairn Horn88 8162]

Softball is about positive or negative momentum….we are on the wrong side of the mo.   Lefties trying some bunts…

[LTtxfan 48952]

So far...

aggy not playing like #16 seed

Texas not playing like #1 seed

LET'S GO !!! 🤘

We can’t wait too long….gotta figure her out and look for some weaknesses….they could pull her next inning and save her for manana…tbd.

[DigDug 1649]

Slap and give up

I bet she could go 21 innings if they needed her to.

[Hank_Hill 18484]

Woof

[Hondo 661]

Another Texas team that's really good but can't get it done when it really matters.  What else is new...

At least we have our volleyball championships. 

[D3zii 3641]

One thing for sure, Mike Better find an ACE this offseason that’s the only thing keeping this team from being elite 

[Mo Horn 8807]

Doesn't mean much being a #1 seed when you don't show up and get embarrassed by the lowest seeded team. And of course it's aggy. FML.

She'll throw every inning this weekend, unless we can get to her. 

[Mo Horn 8807]

JFC

[D3zii 3641]

Run ruled?!? Maybe that’ll wake us up

[MirrOlure 14617]

I bet she could go 21 innings if they needed her to.

I mean, that would mean we win game 2, so I’ll take it

Well it’s game 1

[TrashMaster G 17385]

Pathetic showing, ladies

[Gut Wagon 8052]

We're built to pummel ordinary teams. And we do. But run-ruling half of America doesn't help much when those aren't the teams you play in late May. Our record against the best pitchers we've faced isn't much different from any other team's. We obviously lack that ace who could have made tonight a scoreless tie to this point. 

It's not that we're overmatched on all our ABs. We've hit in some tough luck, for sure. But blowing our chance with the bases loaded was huge. We need to make the most of these last looks at their starter, because we're going to keep getting a steady diet of her. 

[Cairn Horn88 8162]

The OKST leftie came here and ate our lunch….shutting us out twice and us winning one of three by a score of 2-1…so, I’m guessing aggy did their homework and knows our weakness and their pitcher has executed it pretty well.  They will do it again tomorrow, so not looking good for us.  Florida beat the crap outta aggy….but, that’s another story.

[Hondo 661]

"Texas is the 2nd highest scoring team in the nation.  They are stacked 1 through 9."

 

*Checks score*

 

0 runs for Texas

 

"This is the largest deficit Texas has faced all season."

[D3zii 3641]

We just need to end this game on a good note
