Baseball: No. 3 Texas vs. Oklahoma game thread (Friday)

[bourbasted]

Schuss leading off, the 5, 6, & 7 hitters coming up for Texas.

[bourbasted]

Schuss flies out to left on a lazy liner.  1 down in the top of the 7th.  Flores up now.

[bourbasted]

Flores with nice contact on a ground ball, but a great play by the 3rd baseman sees him out.  2 down.

[bourbasted]

A-Rod up now.

[bourbasted]

Rodriguez strikes out to end an uneventful top of the 7th.  Mid 7th, Texas 6 - 0u 5

[bourbasted]

Grubbs back out for the 7th.  He strikes out the first cousin-kisser.  One down.

[bourbasted]

Grubs gets the second gooner to miss three times as well.  2 down in the bottom of the 7th.

[Class of 04]

Grubbs is throwing aspirin right now...

[bourbasted]

Hard hit ball for the last batter, but straight to Schuss for the 3rd out.  End of the 7th, Texas 6 - Chokelahoma 5.

[bourbasted]

Farmer up first in the top of the 8th, strikes out.  1 down top of 8th.

[bourbasted]

Gasparino reaches on what should have been an error on the 0u 3rd baseman.  Looks like it was scored an error.  Borba now up with on out and Gas on 1st.

[Texas84]

15 Ks now.

[bourbasted]

The fat pitcher from the gooners is struggling a bit with control (on multiple levels) and walks Borba.  He probably needs a snack or something.

[bourbasted]

Borba on 1st, Gas on 2nd with 1 out.  Mendoza grounds out on a sacrifice ground ball to short.  It was VERY close at first.  2 outs, Borba on 2nd, Gas on 3rd.  Belyeu at the plate.

[bourbasted]

The fat kid decides he can't pitch to Belyeu and gives an intentional walk.  Someone get this kid a Snickers or something.  Bases loaded now with 2 outs.  Galvan at the plate.

[Texas84]

[bourbasted]

Chubby-guts manages to muster the strength to strike out Galvan.  Texas leaves the bases juiced as the Horns go down empty handed in the top of the 8th.

Just now, Texas84 said:

I love that Hank is wearing Earl's number in this pic.

[bourbasted]

Bottom of the 8th, Grubbs back on the mound.  

[bourbasted]

The batters name is Mudler.  Just going to leave that there.

[bourbasted]

Mudler slings one to right-field for a lead off double.  Pinch runner in for him looks like he's twelve.

[bourbasted]

0u puts a bunt down and slides Mudler over to third.  1 out.

[bourbasted]

Grubbs quickly in front 0-2.

[bourbasted]

With a full count, the land-thief drives Mudler home on a line-drive single.  We're knotted up at 6-6.  

[bourbasted]

The next batter hits a long fly ball to center, but it's caught for out 2.
