Derp 

[B00M 6416]

14-11? Fucking A. Guess it’s TBD if our pitching is any better than last year 

[Horny Bull 2760]

O'Hara has looked not-awful in his two appearances. 

[D3zii 3705]

So does this mean we’re not winning??

[GreenspointTexas 9615]

Goddamn, 11 unanswered runs

 

is that a record against Texas?

[David Dennison 18912]

We were winning 11-3.

I just can't.

[GreenspointTexas 9615]

Averaged 8 runs a game this weekend

 

lost all 3 games. Fuck anyone who says our bullpen is any good

Leading is the word you’re looking for.  We were never winning.

Starters ain't so hot either 

[Capn81 373]

The first two starters did not help things. Gotta have guys who can go longer than four innings, especially from you front two starters.

NorthShore will call you a dipshit who knows nothing about baseball if you suggest our bullpen is anything but great 

[ClubWhatever 12144]

Thomas had such a shitty series.  

[Horny Bull 2760]

14-11 final. Weekend to forget in Houston.

[perfectchaos007 6672]

This Texas team has a lot of quit in them

[Horn80 6127]

Hit the showers to wash off this tourney shit show.

We had two dogs in the pen.   They blew their arms out and aren't the same.  Looking for some other dogs.  So far it's a bunch of pups.

How bad is Cal Poly? Really fucking bad.

[ballrific 215]

Our head coach should have a long, hard chat with our pitching coach….

[UnhappilyMarried 816]

There’s a nonzero chance Pierce fakes a corona outbreak tomorrow

I wish our AD would speak with both because neither is meeting the Texas standard.

Right. No starter made it through 5 innings to qualify for win... (Cody got close today but only 4 2/3)

Maybe question the NEW pitching coach decision...?

 TERRIBLE weekend....gut punches 3 different ways.

3 innings and 1 1/3 don't cut it for for your Friday and Saturday guys...

Nah just your bitchass. 

[TornACL 7698]

Worst part is you could see this shit coming at 11-5. We start every hitter with a 2-0 count and no one throws gas or has a reliable out pitch

but our staff is in way better position than it has been in the past...

[dcar00 14224]

Is this the place to "LOL" someone about our staff? asking because I'm not good at the LOLing thing.

I'm out, going to the Bob Marley movie.  I thought our earlier games were signs of hope, turns out we just played shit teams.  Maybe Pierce will generate another upward trajectory over the course of the season.

yes, they were shit teams.  which is why we should take nothing from them, glorified scrimmages.  Long season, staff looks very iffy.  Pierce has done this before but not sure why we HAVE to do it every other year.  He's gonna have to coach his ass off to win a regional. Maybe the gods will do us a favor and the Big 12 will suck this year.

What a kick in the balls this weekend was

32 runs given up in 3 games doesn't do it for you?

This tournament is a great early season ‘temperature’ check for this team / program 

Do you have a general impression of the Texas fan support this weekend ?     Lower numbers than in the past ?     Suppose many opted not to purchase lower level ?

 

 

 

[shadow_operative2.0 15999]

6-3 now, top 6. 

[WBT 20592]

8-3 at the stretch

today’s crowd was easily the biggest

lsu crowd blew everyone away. TxSt had a big showing 

[Bevo&Pevo 5195]

Being there today, probably saved me from buying a new TV.  I'm over it now.  

[Hookem2147 21328]

Schuessler’s bat has been one of the pleasant surprises of the season so far but it’s been offset by his inability to even be average behind the plate.

Yeah I figured it’d be the other way. Good to great defensively. Shit at the plate. Really need Galvan back

[shadow_operative2.0 15999]

6-4 Louisiana, top 7. Hou trying to pull an us. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15999]

Damn, 7-7 through 7 now. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15999]

8-8, playing 10. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15999]

13-8 Hou in top 11, we shall join Louisiana as beaten. 

[Storm the Field 5295]

Good showing by my Bobcats this weekend.

Team is gonna score a lot of runs, but man, our pitching depth is thiiiiiiin.
