OTF Premium Baseball Game Thread: No. 3 Texas vs. Michigan State (Saturday)

[AndyLufkin]

Temo another great play at third. One down in T3.

[AndyLufkin]

Sturgess one-out single up the middle.

[AndyLufkin]

Leadoff batter Williams up to bat. Passed ball gets runner to second with one out. Williams line drive to right center. Diving catch by Robbins. Runner advances to third with two outs in B3.

[AndyLufkin]

McKay bloop single plates MSU’s first run. Now 1-1 with two outs in B3.

[AZ Longhorn]

What a play by Robbins! More barrels, though.

Harrison fooling no one

[AndyLufkin]

Harrison gets third out on checkswing strikeout. 1-1 going into the bottom of the third.

[AZ Longhorn]

We're lucky they only have 1. With how deep our staff is, and since we didn't have to use anybody critical yesterday, and with Volantis tomorrow... I need me some Grubbs and Burns asap!

Robbins two-out triple to right.

[AndyLufkin]

Tinney pops out to center fielder behind second base. 1-1 after three complete.

[AndyLufkin]

ARod throws out first batter of the fourth. Broski lines out to right (nice play by Pack). Bright lines out to center on another hard-hit ball. 1-1 going to B4.

[AZ Longhorn]

Three batters, two more barrels. But somehow no baserunners. This ain't for the faint of heart!

Can't wait for Jonah to be fully healthy (stop me if you've heard this one before lol) to see his speed put pressure on defenses. In these two games so far, there have been a couple ground balls I'd have loved to see him leg out, speed up the defensive clocks, and either steal a baserunner outright or force mistakes

[AndyLufkin]

Jonah groundout to second. Borba grounds out to SS on shift. Larson groundout to second. After four complete, MSU one run on three hits, UT one run on five hits.

[AndyLufkin]

Oliver (No. 7 hitter) single up the middle to start the fifth. Deckinga (.000 BA on 13 at-bats) walks. Runners on first and second with no outs.

[AZ Longhorn]

Sharp leadoff single from the 8 hole, walks the 9 hole. Please don't leave Harrison out there for a third time through the heart of the order... they've already been all over him. 

[AndyLufkin]

Sturgess can’t get the bunt down and strikes out looking on a breaking ball from Harrison. One out. Harrison might be done.

[AZ Longhorn]

Alright, left him in for the matchup with the lefty. Now making a move.

[AndyLufkin]

Lefty Haiden Leffew (Wake Forest transfer) coming in with runners at first and second and one out in the top of the fifth. Still 1-1.

[AZ Longhorn]

Big spot for his Horns debut!!

[CJ Vogel]

Beautiful day for some ball. 
 

wind is blowing straight in from LF

[AndyLufkin]

Apparent 5-4-3 double play but runner called safe at first. Texas challenges the call.

Runner called out. Inning over. Still 1-1 going to the bottom of the fifth. Harrison finished with one earned run on four hits in 4 1/3 innings.

[AndyLufkin]

Temo hits one to deep short. Called out at first but Texas challenging again.
