Can we poach Saarloos before tomorrow's game?

As a pitching coach he'd be a big improvement 

[LTtxfan 49373]

Two more Horns strikeout in 9th --how many strikeouts did our hitters have tonight???

smdh 🙄

Welp Pierce had squad ready to go tonight. Jeez. 

[Bevo&Pevo 5222]

Typical for 2024.  Describe this season in one word.  I'd choose wasted.

Glad I spent the evening at a winery out in the boonies where I couldn't get 5g service. Got to watch the 9th when we gor home though.

Do any of the Savannah Bananas have college eligibility?

After I watched the Rangers lose I was basically out.

[Pato del Muerto 52617]

Looks like I gave up on them right about when they gave up on themselves.  Helps validate the decision. 

[NorthLoop 14252]

I got to watch the TCU closer get all fired up about closing us out. At first I thought "yeah dipshit get pumped all you want but yall suck too" .. then I thought "I wish any of our guys got this pumped at any point for these games"..

 

We have like 2 guys that seem to give a shit, and one of 'em is out for the year.

Could not have said this better.  I miss the passion of players like Kody Clemens or Huston Street. 

Not much fight in this current roster...

I went to the game. Joke is on me

Lack of leadership will do that to a team. Among other things.

Yeah it's clearly a culture thing, which is fully on Pierce. It's the opposite of what we're seeing with other UT programs. There's no way CDC isn't concerned about this. 

[Revolution512 1495]

There’s nothing to worry about in terms of Pierce coaching here. It’s over

I had the opportunity to watch this game from a suite and turned it down. Looks like I made the right decision.

There’s only 1 right choice when someone asks you to go watch this season’s team. Easy choice. Correct choice.

There’s no fight because they don’t believe in or trust their coach.  They’ve lost faith, and aren’t enjoying the game.  The thrill is gone.

If he isn’t then he’s not doing his job. A change better happen.

Maybe we can get a guy to third base today

[txduck87 996]

At spring game. Have tickets to baseball game. We still on? Forecast no bueno.

OK, let's not get all crazy now ...

Yeah, right. About as likely as me getting to third base with Taylor Swift.

Austin radar.   Looks pretty good until about 7PM.

[Horny Bull 2766]

Nice play by Powell ends the inning.

[ConferenceRoom 6147]

Great play. 

[Horny Bull 2766]

0-0 after 1.

[chase25 2048]

That bunt by Peyton is this teams season in a nutshell

[hobbes2702 13078]

Not sure why we haven’t bunted against the shift more often this year. The number of times we ground out to short playing 2nd is infuriating 

[ClubWhatever 12158]

Do it again next time.  Keep doing it until they go back.  

[AbeFroman 2207]

You know if you took a step back off the plate then everything wouldn't be up under you and you wouldn't have to turn so hard on everything.  You could actually drive the ball to the left side.

[wood 11283]

LOL two different purples for TCU's unis & helmets. Weird.

[Hookem2147 21365]

Right down the middle. Literally. And we get the make up call

I have trouble passing judgement on that based on how often it happens with ours across all sports. And the dramatic change in orange we’ve had over the past 20 or so years. 

[Bevo&Pevo 5222]

Fixin' to get a run.

[ClubWhatever 12158]

We've hit about 4 rockets right at their 3B

[Horny Bull 2766]

RBI single for Gasparino.

Looks like he got to second on the throw.

Edited April 20 by Horny Bull

[ClubWhatever 12158]

Bad baseball by TCU

[InkaUtexas 26172]

Damn we scored!

[hobbes2702 13078]

14-4 when scoring first. I dunno that I would have believed you that we scored 1st in 18 games.

Looks like your chances with Taylor just went up

[Bevo&Pevo 5222]

Looks like they've broke the drought.  Score more.

[hobbes2702 13078]

Apparently Borba just needs letter high fastballs to get some hits 

[Horny Bull 2766]

RBI single for Borba. 

 

Edited April 20 by Horny Bull
I thought Borba got to second

[ClubWhatever 12158]

E

[hobbes2702 13078]

Not a huge fan of the safety squeeze here but with Dee I get it. Takes off the DP and he’s fast enough to beat it.

Too bad he sucks at bunting
