OTF Premium Baseball Game Thread: No. 2 Texas vs. No. 18 Texas A&M (Saturday, 2 p.m.)

[Jeff Howe]

The Longhorns are sending Luke Harrison to the mound, looking to avoid a series loss after Friday's 9-8 loss to the Aggies.

Today's game is on ESPN2.

[Jeff Howe]

Mendoza leads off with a double to center. Sorrell crashed into the left-center field wall and couldn't secure the catch.

[Jeff Howe]

Tinney flies out to right, but it's deep enough to get Mendoza to third.

With one out, Texas has the first run of the game 90 feet away from home plate.

[Jeff Howe]

Kellner can't hang onto Robbins' rocket to short.

Mendoza scores, Robbins reaches base and Texas has the lead, 1-0.

[Jeff Howe]

No RBI for Robbins. It's scored as an error on Kellner.

[Jeff Howe]

After last night's loss, Texas has taken advantage of two Aggie miscues to draw first blood today.

[Jeff Howe]

Pack grounds into an inning-ending 4-6-3 double play. Nevertheless, Luke Harrison will take the mound with a lead.

[Jeff Howe]

M1: Texas 1, TAMU 0

[Jeff Howe]

Grahovac singles to center to lead off the bottom of the first for the Aggies.

[Jeff Howe]

Sorrell singles pretty much to the same part of the field.

[LonghornLegends]

Come on Harrison.

[Jeff Howe]

BIG strikeout by Harrison to get Hacopian looking.

I know Texas is ranked high, but is the pitching really where it needs to be to make a run at a NC? It seems to me it’s not. I haven’t seen them play too much, so maybe I’m not seeing the whole picture.

[Jeff Howe]

Duer works a walk and the bases are loaded with one out.

[NoDakHornsFan]

Way too many walks this weekend when Texas was ahead in the count.

[Jeff Howe]

The rain is coming down as Partida doubles down the left-field line.

It's a two-run double and the Aggies are up, 1-0.

These walks, man. 

[Jeff Howe]

I can't see this lasting much longer before it gets delayed.

[Jeff Howe]

And there it is.

At 2:33 p.m., the game has entered a rain delay.

[LonghornLegends]

lol, here comes the meltdown. I am still struck on the fact that we cannot hit the fkn strike zone. I mean I feel like if teams just don’t swing we will load the bases for them, wears me out.

[Jeff Howe]

Whenever play resumes, the Aggies will have runners in scoring position with one out.

[BurntOrangeDriller]

This play by play team calling this game is so nauseatingly in love with everything Aggie it is actually making me sick

This one might take a while.

Unfortunately. Pretty heavy thunderstorm over College Station right now.
