Texas @ Stanford series

[Colonel Sanders 1370]

Seems like they should have suspended play .  Do they not have tarps?

 

[Cairn Horn88 8285]

Should have delayed before that last batter.  Just cost us two runs....not that we are throwing and catching.

[HuntinHorn 986]

I feel like I’m watching my nephew’s little league games.

[ClubWhatever 12158]

Was Reynolds throw off or did Peter just whiff it?

[BillyGoatHill 4312]

Umps obviously trying to get in 5, that field is soaked. Bullshit.

[Horny Bull 2766]

4-0 Stanford

Throw was way off...

[Victorious1 166]

You know...

Coaches know Fields has control problems, yet they bring him in again to face the same situation and expect a different result.

That's on the coach.  I know we're out of arms blah, blah, blah...

[Cajun 11750]

We are officially the Bad News Bears.  

Wheels are completely off of this team.

[Colonel Sanders 1370]

Wow, that was ugly

[UTEX_ME 4766]

1-3 wasn't wanted but not entirely surprising.  Curious how this team will do in conference. 

[EuroHorn 3271]

Was hoping for a split in the series. Not going to happen. This team needs a lot of work.  

[ClubWhatever 12158]

gotta get McCann back or season is over

“Klaatu barada nikto” is a phrase that originated in the 1951 science fiction film The Day the Earth Stood Still. The humanoid alien protagonist of the film, Klaatu (Michael Rennie), instructs Helen Benson (Patricia Neal) that if any harm befalls him, she must say the phrase to the robot Gort(Lockard Martin). In response Gort relents from destroying the Earth and resurrects Klaatu from death.^[1]

The Robot Hall of Fame describes the phrase as "one of the most famous commands in science fiction"^[2] and Frederick S. Clarke of Cinefantastique called it "the most famous phrase ever spoken by an extraterrestrial."

I did not know that.

yeah, it's a completely made up phrase but, of course, SIFI nerds have been saying they have figured out what it means for decades. 

[BillyGoatHill 4312]

LSU obviously overrated, us too. Pierce better work some magic from here on out.

[Horny Bull 2766]

Tristan Stevens on to pitch. 

[ClubWhatever 12158]

Interesting.  Their bullpen is the grounds crew

[zork 629]

mudders they aint

5-0 Stanford

[perfectchaos007 6677]

At least we won the series opener

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Our only hope now is a rain out no-contest

Pleading no contest is usually a winning formula

[BillyGoatHill 4312]

Do we have anyone that can throw strikes?

 

[Horny Bull 2766]

Donny Diaz on to pitch. 

[runthebone 8047]

Should have moved up the start time. 

[Levi 2592]

One bad series where our catcher is hurt and the coaches are still trying to figure out the best defensive alignment with only young guys as the best options.

And we haven’t even started conference play. 

But hey, fuck this team and the coaches. This season is over. 

Give it a break. We knew going into this series that Stanford was probably the real deal (unlike LSU) and a competitive 2-2 series would be great for this team. They obviously haven’t played well and Texas has some things to fix. I highly doubt the rest of the season will be like this series. 

[Horny Bull 2766]

6-0 Stanford

We have a lot of posters that don't understand how a baseball season works. This has been a shit series for us, but the sky isn't falling. 

[Horny Bull 2766]

7-0 Stanford

[lemonandaturd 4285]

Going back to the AAF football game, this is ugly.  

[Cairn Horn88 8285]

We are not good enough or mature enough to overcome the diversity we've had this weekend.  We've got some growing up to do and we've got to get better.....quick.

Yep. I for one though am glad we are giving this home-home series a break. Sure it's been good to get road experience against a good team, but it hasn't been going in our favor recently. 

[Cairn Horn88 8285]

Stanford has sent like 13 batters to the plate....and this inning still ain't over.  We need a thunderstorm with heavy rain to start NOW.

agree. this is ugly but they need to get this stuff worked out by conference play.  A lot of people were expecting Hibbeler to start at SS after Hamilton was attacked by a scooter.  It took this series to finally make that happen.  

[Cairn Horn88 8285]

I would not be surprised if we don't wave a white flag and call it quits and go home after the 5th.  This ain't helping up at all.

[Lat22 4018]

How wet are these damn baseballs?

[Horny Bull 2766]

Kolby Kubichek on to pitch.

yeah, it will probably get called if it rains again. Stanford should want to get this last out so they can start the 5th to make this game official

[Lat22 4018]

We’re shitty right now, but the wheels came off this thing when the umps didn’t stop play in a downpour.

Username does not check out.

 

[Horny Bull 2766]

Stanford leads 8-0 after 4. 

[Lat22 4018]

Let’s see how Stanford handles a soaked field and wet baseball. 

[WBT 20672]

Good lord it's finally over.  14 batters that inning.  8 runs on 3 hits 

[Soldierhorn 206]

8 runs on three hits... wow

[BillyGoatHill 4312]

Bronx cheer.......On to the 5th.

 

[Brandywine 1317]

Looks like Stanford’s having a fun time after Thursday’s lost. What the hell happened Texas?

Outscored 20-3 since that 9th inning. Woof. 

[Horny Bull 2766]

After an hour long half inning, Texas goes down in about 5 minutes. 

[WBT 20672]

Two first pitch popups that inning
