I’ve got the radio call going. I could listen to Keith Moreland talk baseball all day.

As the saying goes, he’ll forget more than you or I will ever know. 

[Taylorgang3]

The ump has a crazy strike zone today. Called multiple balls at the shins strikes. Also, Pendergrass should’ve walked 4-0. Crazy strike call in there. 

[Jeff Howe]

Tinney works a walk, putting runners on first and second with two outs for Pack, who Schloss said on Wednesday is over his wrist issue, which flared up after doing a workout with a medicine ball in the weight room.

Very interested to see how ABS works in the SEC Tournament.

[Jeff Howe]

Pack doesn’t get the call on what could’ve been called a ball on a 3-1 pitch.

[Jeff Howe]

A six-pitch walk for Pack loads the bases with two outs for Mendoza.

It’s a 30-pitch inning for McDevitt.

[Jeff Howe]

Mendoza grounds out to second on McDevitt’s 32nd pitch of the inning. The Longhorns get a run across, but they leave the bases loaded in the third.

End of 3: Texas 1, Missouri 1

Schloss-coached games are long enough as it is.

[Jeff Howe]

Volantis retires the Tigers in order in the fourth.

M4: Texas 1, Missouri 1

[TCope111]

Texas State potentially in our regional. Saw them in person last weekend against Arkansas State. They can hit. 

[Jeff Howe]

Two outs in the bottom of the fourth, but A-Rod is on third, representing the go-ahead run.

[Jeff Howe]

Lefty Dane Bjorn replaced McDevitt at the start of the inning.

[Jeff Howe]

Pendergrass grounds out with two outs and runners in scoring position, ending the inning.

Leaving 5 men on base in the last two innings is the exact recipe on how they lose most games. I hope it doesn’t become a trend…

Yep.  Mizzou probably preserves their staff for the tourney so big advantage us.

[Jeff Howe]

It’s 10 strikeouts through five for Volantis.

[Jeff Howe]

Robbins draws a walk and Tinney singles, putting runners in scoring position for Pack with nobody out in the bottom of the fifth.

[Jeff Howe]

Pack strikes out looking on a 3-2 count, but Mendoza does his job, flying out to the warning track in right-center to score Robbins and put Texas on top, 2-1.
