Hook em!  LFG!

[MuellerHorn 4613]

Trying to work Fontenot into the weekend rotation, I bet. Here's his first ramp up game.

I'm hoping for the best.  Boehm has to stay in the bullpen, as the one (?) reliable arm.  What other options are there?

Easton Tumis seems like a reliable (yet young, and untested over a long duration) arm. He and Grubbs are likely the best options after Boehm. When Witt isn't leaving fastballs right over the middle of the plate, he has shown he can be a good option.

But yeah, Boehm is really the only BP arm I don't sweat over. Especially if Fontenot is moving to the starting rotation.

Stick to the code, take all you can and leave nothing for the rest.  

[VirginiaLonghorn 4888]

PB used both hands to catch the first two F8!

[Bevo&Pevo 5515]

Good looking breaking ball on that 2nd pitch

[Horny Bull 2766]

Fontenot starts the game with a 1-2-3 inning.

0-0 after 1.

Gotta give that 3B dude some credit, nice catch.

Season's over

[MuellerHorn 4613]

That's just about the luckiest strike you'll ever see haha.

Fontenot lost a pitch high and inside, the batter ducked as to not get beaned in the head, and the ball subsequently hits the bat that's still stuck up in the air.

[Bevo&Pevo 5515]

Uh... he might want to back off the plate some.

[HenryJames 67302]

Ump needs to stop being a faget on called third strikes.

[zlavydra 2142]

Shift works!

[ClubWhatever 12282]

Shift worked!

[Hookem2147 22005]

We got the midweek sized strike zone tonight 

[Horny Bull 2766]

Quick inning for Fontenot. Doing a good job of getting ahead in the count so far.

Good catch by you, too!  That’s what a couple of “tall boyz” for dinner will do …

Keith saying "Warshington" never fails to crack me up.

[Hookem2147 22005]

Facing Fontenot is probably just a tad different than facing Texas Southern over the weekend 

[Horny Bull 2766]

First base runner for either team reaches via a walk.

[Hookem2147 22005]

2-2 pitch was right down the middle.

[ClubWhatever 12282]

lol 

[Hookem2147 22005]

There are snails that move faster than Jack O’Dowd

[TornACL 7792]

I can't watch this complete lack of range at 2B all season long.

[Levi 2659]

It’s just so painfully obvious at this point with O’Dowd. 

[HenryJames 67302]

K

[ClubWhatever 12282]

Somebody who's caught tell me why that stance isn't stupid 

[Horny Bull 2766]

Fontenot strands a pair T3.

[Hookem2147 22005]

Missed 2-2 pitch on the first walk cost Fontenot about 15 pitches

Two run homer for Thomas.

JT goes yard.  HR.

2-0 Texas after 3.

[zlavydra 2142]

2-0 Texas after 3 innings. UIW pitcher is not terrible, and they play decent defense.

[Horny Bull 2766]

Selvig on to pitch.

[Hookem2147 22005]

Interested to see Selvig here

[shadow_operative2.0 16249]

Jesus fuck, Porter. 

[zlavydra 2142]

PB reminds me of me playing OF in softball. But with prettier eyes.

[David Dennison 19446]

Wasn't as bad as I thought, but still.

[VirginiaLonghorn 4888]

Get PB a dip net … and a helmet for his safety.

[hobbes2702 13393]

Can we please DH Porter 

[Horny Bull 2766]

Selvig strands a runner at second T4.
