[horns96]

How long can you keep A-Rod in the lineup? He can't even swing the bat without wincing pain.

Just a pretty pathetic inning there, 0 hits. 

I wouldn't call the wind robbing Tinney of a grand slam pathetic.

End of 7: OU 3, Texas 2

Skip's pitchers haven't even been close.

If they had a viable option, they'd get him a day off every now and then. They don't have one.

I was thinking the same thing lol, everyone is cheering and I’m like we had the bases loaded with 0 outs and only reason we got runs is because of a walk lol/flyout. That is bad and if Rodriguez hurts every time he swings maybe pinch hit when the game is damn near on the line 🙄

Tinney was excellent - no complaints there, but we have got to get hits with RISP. 

[Jeff Howe]

Cozart blows one by Johnson for the first out of the inning.

Did Sam Cozart play football in high school?

[TrouperG]

Cozart, a Freshman in for setup/closer, it's unbelievable but man these things write themselves.

 

[Jeff Howe]

Willits lines out to Pack as Cozart makes quick work of the Sooners in the eighth.

I don't believe he did.

The injury won’t truly heal until the offseason, so are you prepared to lose him for the rest of the year to get him healthy?

M8: OU 3, Texas 2

[TrouperG]

Cozart got them back in the dugout before they could get cold and OU's bullpen seems shook.  Skip looks like a deer in headlights.

[Jeff Howe]

Becerra strikes out to lead off the bottom of the eighth.

[JMarquette]

I get that some days the bats are off, but you can’t be THIS off. 

[Jeff Howe]

OU putting the shift on and the wind gives Borba an infield single.

Two down, one on for Larson.

[JMarquette]

Casey Borba, power hitting at its best

[Dread-headed Texan]

A base knock lol drink em if you got em

[Jeff Howe]

Larson singles to right.

Two on, two outs for Courville.

Oh my that's two in a row

[Jeff Howe]

Just can't get that clutch hit tonight.

Courville, in his first plate appearance in almost a month, grounds back to the pitcher.

Texas will have the top of the order up in the ninth.
