Ruger gets Lauaki to chase upstairs. One down in the bottom of the fourth.

Borba continues to be very good defensively at the hot corner.

Even more impressive as he was even with the bag, depth wise. That ball was scorched.

[Austalgia]

3 balsa to a 238 hitter 

[Jeff Howe]

Brooks draws a two-out walk.

Third time through the order for Riojas coming up.

[TCope111]

Could have throw 3 right down the middle to that kid. Wasn’t catching up. 

[Burnt Orange Horn]

F U D G E !

[Jeff Howe]

Gimenez first-pitch lineout to Robbins to end that one with little drama.

Texas has a one-run lead through four complete.

[Burntcowboy]

You can’t walk the 9th hole. 

[Jeff Howe]

End of 4: Texas 4, Oregon 3

[HDub1995]

The lack of control is driving me nuts. Lol. 

[Jedi Master Bevo]

No he walked him on purpose 

[TCope111]

We need to take the momentum back prior to getting into our bullpen. 

[Okcool]

Painful listening to Ravech and his two stooges call this game. Damn dipshits calling it like they're Oregon donors. FML

Has anyone checked the charges against the balls this pitcher throws.  Has to be murder one because it got Life.

[Hookem1012]

That changeup has a bit of screwball action to it. Really funky.

[TCope111]

This Oregon reliever reminds me a lot of the Tennessee pitcher that gave us the works. Wild enough to keep you guessing with a funky windup and good stuff. Need to get him off the bump.

National media has to root for the most interesting series, not the best outcome for the Longhorns.  It's how they make their money.  I used to hate going to live football games in 2005 because you'd stand in the heat for hours while some dude with a silly glove held his hand up for seemingly no reason (it was for the ad breaks in a nationally televised game).  It's the price you pay for winning.  Speaking of which, I have to be at work super early in the morning and I'm getting Old AF.  So probably going to go listen to the Craig Way call while I drift off.

Ravechis slobbering.  He's a clueless announcer

[Jeff Howe]

Larson works a four-pitch walk, bringing Borba up with a runner on and two outs.

[Jeff Howe]

Borba takes a payoff pitch to the upper back.

Two on, two outs for Pendergrass.

Might need to get the bat off the shoulders.  I'd actually agree at this point in the season.  Foul off, and get 6+ pitch counts, shorten up and just make contact.

[Hookem1012]

Tunneling is good from this pitcher. If he can keep throwing his sinker and his change in the same tunnel, Texas is going to have a real issue with that due to the speed difference.

[Jeff Howe]

The inning ends on a Pendergrass chopper back to the mound.

That's eight stranded through five for the Longhorns tonight.
