Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 16 Moderators Posted May 16 It's senior day on the Forty Acres as the Longhorns go for the series sweep of the Tigers to close out the regular season. The game is being streamed live on SEC Network Plus. Aiden Robbins, who left last night's 11-6 win early with a stomach bug, isn't in the lineup today. 1 Quote
Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 16 Author Moderators Posted May 16 With a win, Texas will lock up second place in the SEC standings and will be the No. 2 seed in the SEC Tournament. 1 Quote
Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 16 Author Moderators Posted May 16 We're underway with a first-pitch ball from Ruger Riojas. 1 Quote
Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 16 Author Moderators Posted May 16 Interesting. Riojas retires the leadoff hitter on a liner to first and he's out of the game. I don't know if it's precautionary or not, but Riojas is done after facing one batter. 2 4 Quote
Burnt Orange Horn Posted May 16 Posted May 16 (edited) Weird Riojas did not show his weakness in warmups. 🤔 His fastball was mid to high 80s. Edited May 16 by Burnt Orange Horn Quote
Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 16 Author Moderators Posted May 16 Riojas has been dealing with arm soreness and they've talked about getting him some rest. I hope it's just that Schloss wanted to let him face one batter on senior day before getting him out of there, but I'll pass along word whenever I hear something. 7 1 Quote

Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 16 Author Moderators Posted May 16 Ward homers into the Yeti Yard off Brody Walls. Missouri has a 1-0 lead. 1 Quote
Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 16 Author Moderators Posted May 16 And then Walls walks Serna on four pitches. FWIW, Walls threw 19 pitches last night. 1 Quote
Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 16 Author Moderators Posted May 16 The Tigers draw first blood on a two-out solo home run in the top of the first. Quote
.45s Posted May 16 Posted May 16 We need to score fast and hope Brody settles downs and gives us some innings. Quote
Burnt Orange Horn Posted May 16 Posted May 16 (edited) Pull Walls. He is done! Edited May 16 by Burnt Orange Horn Quote
NoDakHornsFan Posted May 16 Posted May 16 Could care less about today. But after Witt’s injury in ‘22, Spencer last year let’s hope it’s nothing major.. Quote
Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 16 Author Moderators Posted May 16 In theory, this game doesn't mean anything for Texas. The Longhorns are locked into a double bye in the SEC Tournament, so I'm hoping the Riojas situation is just precautionary. 5 Quote

TrouperG Posted May 16 Posted May 16 2 or 3 seed in Hoover doesn’t really matter. No real difference. Might as well rest who you can rest Quote
Burnt Orange Horn Posted May 16 Posted May 16 (edited) I just do not want someone else out of conference replacing Texas as the #8 seed!! 🤘🏻🤘🏼🤘 Edited May 16 by Burnt Orange Horn Quote
