Baseball: No. 1 Texas vs. No. 11 Arkansas game thread (Friday)

[.45s]

Nothing like the pitcher loading the bases.  

[.45s]

Wonderful.  Hit the batter and bring in a run.  It was a really bad pitch to boot.

[Jeff Howe]

HBP on an 0-2 count brings in an Arkansas run.

[Jeff Howe]

Arkansas has a 5-1 lead with the bases loaded and two outs.

[Jeff Howe]

A force out at second ends the inning.

[Jeff Howe]

End of 5: Arkansas 5, Texas 1

[Class of 04]

There are certainly two different strike zones for this ump, but the way we're swinging the bat it doesn't matter all that much.

[Jeff Howe]

Schuessler didn’t like the called third strike. He had words with the umpire. Schloss had to come out and get him back to the dugout.

[Class of 04]

BS, Kimble didn't go...

[Jeff Howe]

13 strikeouts by Arkansas pitching tonight.

Didn’t come close. This ump is feeding the crowd with his strike zone that seems to extend to the edges of the batter’s box at times.

You just can't lose a series without throwing Volantis. Cant 

[.45s]

Pitchers have been eating up our batters on low and outside change ups and curves, similar to last season, especially when there are 2 strikes.

100% correct

[Jeff Howe]

Horrible third strike call against Rodriguez.

M6: Arkansas 5, Texas 1

[.45s]

That is a terrible home plate umpire.  14 Ks after 6 innings.  No Bueno.

We’re not exactly covering ourselves in glory with our at bats the last two games, but you can see who’s playing to a hostile crowd. 

[Jeff Howe]

Grayson Saunier is on the hill for the sixth.

[.45s]

4 hits and 14 Ks after 6 innings is not going to win many games.

[Class of 04]

This is a piss poor series for us, and the umps are just pouring fuel on the fire.

[.45s]

We have hit more batters than we have hits.

[NothinButDaHorns34]

Eating a little bit of humble pie tonight it seems since the high we been riding for months 

[.45s]

Bases loaded again.

[Jeff Howe]

Saunier walks in a run. It’s a 6-1 lead for Arkansas.
