OTF Premium Baseball Game Thread: No. 2 Texas vs. South Carolina (Saturday, 1 p.m.)

[Jeff Howe]

Tinney is on third with one out after Evans misplayed a fly ball in left field.

Good run-scoring opportunity for the Longhorns.

[Jeff Howe]

Tinney scores on a sacrifice fly to left by Robbins.

Texas has a 3-0 lead with two outs in the bottom of the fifth and the Gamecocks are going to the bullpen.

[Longmire]

Horns need JoBu. "Bat s no hit curveball"

[Burnt Orange Horn]

Finally got the sacrifice deep line drive to LF by Robbins!!

🤘🏻🤘🏼🤘

[Jeff Howe]

An infield single gives Pack a three-hit game.

[Burnt Orange Horn]

Borba with no fooking patience goes fishing for strike 3!!

😡😡🤦🏿‍♂️

[Jeff Howe]

Borba’s third strikeout of the day ends the fifth.

M5: Texas 3, SC 0

[Jeff Howe]

Just like last night against Harrison, South Carolina’s first hit against Volantis is a home run.

A leadoff shot in the bottom of the fifth makes it a 3-1 game.

[Jeff Howe]

Volantis rallies for two strikeouts after giving up the home run.

Volantis strikes out the side after the home run.

Texas has a two-run lead through five.

[Burnt Orange Horn]

Volantis looks good to pitch the 6th!!

End of 5: Texas 3, South Carolina 1

[Jeff Howe]

A great play in right field robs Becerra of a hit. Presley Courville's pinch-hit strikeout brings up Gumbo with the bases empty and two outs in the top of the sixth.

[Jeff Howe]

Gumbo sends a missile to the well in left. It's a single for Gumbo with two outs, keeping the inning alive.

[Jeff Howe]

It's first and third for Mendoza with two outs after Livingston singles to right.

[Jeff Howe]

Pitching change for the Gamecocks.

[Burnt Orange Horn]

Patience on the high breaking ball gets a line drive to the RF wall.  Just amazing when the Texas batters do not give up on the pitch before it reaches the plate!!

🤘🏽🤘🏾🤘🏿

[Jeff Howe]

Mendoza with a first-pitch flyout to right ends the inning with two Longhorns on base.

[Jeff Howe]

M6: Texas 3, SC 1

[Burnt Orange Horn]

Gumbo has the best eye at the plate for Texas.  The kid has improved considerably!

🤘🏽🤘🏾🤘🏿

[Jeff Howe]

Seven runners left on base today.

That's 25 runners stranded in the series for the Longhorns.

[Jeff Howe]

Volantis issues a one-out walk and gives up a two-out single through the left side. The Gamecocks have the tying run on base and that's probably going to be it for Volantis.
