Baseball: No. 1 Texas vs. Florida game thread (Sunday)

[Jeff Howe]

Jonah Williams grounds out to short to end the seventh.

 

[Jeff Howe]

King has retired 10 Longhorns in a row since Gasparino's infield single in the fourth.

End of 7: Florida 4, Texas 0

What is this problem with Texas batters looking at pitches?

Dre Duplantier is on the mound for the eighth. This is Dre's 89th all-time appearance.

C’mon Tulo!

[Jeff Howe]

Duplantier hits Wilson, putting a runner on base with one out.

[Jeff Howe]

Winfield misplays a ball hit to left field by Nadeau, but the relay home nails Wilson at the plate. If the call stands, the inning will be over.

It’s honestly the worst gameplan I’ve seen in a while.  0-1, 0-2 almost every at bat without a swing.

The call stands. Wilson is out and the inning is over.

Schloss coached teams have led the country in pitches seen per AB in each of the last four seasons fwiw.

[Jeff Howe]

King's day is done. Jake Clemente is out of the bullpen and got Farmer to pop out to second base to open the eighth.

[dentonhorn]

Aggie getting crushed , there’s that. 

[Jeff Howe]

Mendoza reaches with a one-out single. That's the first baserunner Texas has had since the fourth inning.

[CJ Vogel]

That ball was roped by Mendoza;. 

1B 

[Jeff Howe]

Galvan was rung up on a called third strike. Two down.

[CJ Vogel]

Phew. That 2-2 pitch to Galvan looked prettyyyyy good.

He ends up striking out looking anyways, however.

[HookedOnTF]

On a side note, we've only had 2 sac bunts all season?!

Looked like a makeup call after replay, but no reason not to swing the bat

[Jeff Howe]

Flores works a walk. Two on with two outs for Schuessler.

[Jeff Howe]

Make it back-to-back walks. Rodriguez comes up with the bases loaded. As rough as things have been today, Texas has the tying run at the plate with two outs in the bottom of the eighth.

[Jeff Howe]

Rodriguez walks. Mendoza comes home and the Longhorns are on the board.

It's a 4-1 game. Bases loaded, two outs for Borba.

[Jeff Howe]

Jaquae Stewart is in the on-deck circle. He'll hit for Winfield if Borba reaches.

[Jeff Howe]

Borba is hitting .375 this season with RISP.
