3-0 or we mildly protest. 

[MuellerHorn 4202]

Yeah, I know it’s college baseball and all, but frankly, I’ll be pretty disappointed if Texas doesn’t sweep. The huskies are not good. 

[ConferenceRoom 6132]

Do they still let the kids run the bases on Sunday?

[petscii 1189]

At the beginning of the season I thought the Huskies were going to be a problem on the schedule. I still think the Huskies are better than their record indicates. They've had some interesting luck. Second year head coach Jason Kelly may have overachieved last year.

We'll see.

BARK IN THE PARK is new fun thing.  

I've made some serious errors in judgement on dollar hotdog days back when it was still honey buckets at the "ballpark"...

I'll be surprised if we get 3 games in.

[UTPhil2006 3795]

Triple header time

They lost a ton off their team last year that went to a regional and weren't very active in the portal. They are pretty young on the mound but that is Kelly's speciality. 

The PAC12 is horrible this year so they could certainly make some noise regardless of the results this weekend.

...in a respectful manner and without raising our voices too loud so as not to disturb others.

I guess we have our core lineup. The two catcher look is a little unconventional but both are hitting.

I’m curious if Pierce will keep it once Galvan’s thumb heals. Borba, Sanders, and Co aren’t really making his decision all that difficult at this point 

 

Free Dee

[ztejas 43382]

God dammit it's going to be a fucking shitshow down there tonight with the Spurs game and SXSW.

Didn't even think about Texas playing baseball tonight.

Everyone in the lineup hitting above .300 outside of Brown(.226) and O’Dowd(.180). Brown will eventually get his but we know what O’Dowd is at this point. Seems obvious during this home stretch we should let Dee get more playing time.

Brown is sporting an .860 OPS. 

[Fletch 5800]

Fucking hell of a catch

[VirginiaLonghorn 4759]

Keith … the “r” is silent Warshington.

Was fair wasn't it?  Nice catch

Tom Landry pronounced it that way too.

[Horny Bull 2759]

LBJ works around a two out double.

[Bevo&Pevo 5105]

Dude, I thought the ball was gonna drop in for PP.

[Hookem2147 20962]

Cost us a run right there 

[Horny Bull 2759]

0-0 after 1.

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

LBJ bb/ip are up from about .43 last year to .65 this year. Excludes the rise in hbp too. The fb location has been really poor too often

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

Walks with KS behind the plate are basically doubles too

[Bevo&Pevo 5105]

Well, I'd say 5K's are a good start.

Good things happen when strikes are thrown … off to a nice start for certain.

Good read.

[Hookem2147 20962]

LBJ has to mix up his looks. Same rhythm every batter.

I think they let one coach third base during the games. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15879]

Smoked. 

[Hookem2147 20962]

Welp, this guy sees LBJ well.

Edited March 15 by Hookem2147

[Bevo&Pevo 5105]

Freakin' ball hit at the bottom of the wall and just more or less laid there.  Lucky break for 'em.

[Bevo&Pevo 5105]

PP moves JT over to 3rd.  Hell yeah.

[Horny Bull 2759]

1-0 UW after 3.

[shadow_operative2.0 15879]

Whoops. 

[ConferenceRoom 6132]

The one thing. 

[ConferenceRoom 6132]

On a platter. Goddamn.

If it isn't one thing, it's another.

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

3 straight innings of a walk on a spiked fastball advancing to 2nd

[Hookem2147 20962]

Add it to the list. Most allowed in the country.

[Hookem2147 20962]

Bobbled DP is going to cost LBJ a full inning 

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

Way to get out of it on a 3 ball count. Come on now sticks
