Baseball: No. 5 Texas vs. No. 3 Georgia Game Thread (Saturday)

2nd time through the order!  Haha I’m just messing 

[Jeff Howe]

I'd like to see Winfield get going, but this AB is... not great.

He chases 94 mph upstairs and strikes out.

[Jeff Howe]

Curley facing the Texas order for the third time. Mendoza is up with a runner on and one out.

[Jeff Howe]

That's what you call a nice piece of hitting. Mendoza slaps one the other way into right field for a single. Two on, one out for Flores.

[Jeff Howe]

Flo is due sooner or later. A 7-for-41 slump in SEC play isn't him.

[Jeff Howe]

Make it a hat trick for Flores with his third strikeout. Two on, two down for Galvan.

Galvan looks at strike three on a payoff pitch and the inning is over. The Longhorns score two runs on three hits and leave three on base in the fifth.

[Jeff Howe]

End of 5: Georgia 4, Texas 2

[Jeff Howe]

Harrison entered the sixth with 80 pitches under his belt.

[Jeff Howe]

Jackson swings and misses for the first out of the inning. Eight strikeouts for Harrison is a career high.

[Jeff Howe]

Credit to Luke for battling today against the Georgia bats and the strike zone.

[CJ Vogel]

Organizing a rally in the Yeti Yard currently.  

[Jeff Howe]

Make it nine strikeouts for Harrison. Hunter is down on strikes. Branch coming up with two outs.

That's why he's a blue-chip prospect in the Texas market, folks!

[Jeff Howe]

Max Grubbs is ready. This might be the last batter Harrison faces.

[Jeff Howe]

Branch should get credit for a base hit. A very tough play for Borba and his throw pulled Schuessler off the bag. That'll be it for Harrison.

[Jeff Howe]

Grubbs is coming into the game.

[Jeff Howe]

Harrison departs after striking out nine in 5.2 innings with 96 pitches thrown.

[Class of 04]

Where did that 1-2 pitch miss before that single? That should have been strike 3.

[Jeff Howe]

Grubbs is 3-0 with a 1.44 ERA in nine appearances. He's allowed 20 hits, struck out 25 and walked six in 25 innings.

It looked like a strike to me.
