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

[bourbasted]

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

[bourbasted]

2 down, man on 1st.

[bourbasted]

The next batter for 0u hits a HR off Grubbs.  Jeesh.  There wasn't much doubt about that one.  MobileHoma now up 8-6.  2 outs bottom of the 8th.

[Jeff Howe]

Two-out rally by OU on the eighth against Grubbs. A two-run homer gives the Sooners an 8-6 lead.

[bourbasted]

Next batter hits a single to keep the inning alive.

[bourbasted]

Grubbs has hit 40 pitches.  Mound visit underway.  

[Jeff Howe]

End of 8: Oklahoma 8, Texas 6

[bourbasted]

Grubbs stays in for now and gets the strike out.  0u gets 3 in the inning, though.  Texas down to their last 3 outs with the score Texas 6, Sister-Lovers 8.

[bourbasted]

The guy who lost the game for 0u last night is back in tonight to close the game for the gooners.

[bourbasted]

Schuss leading off the top of the 9th for Texas.

[bourbasted]

The pitcher's name for the land thieves is Crooks.  You can't make this shizz up.

[bourbasted]

Schuss strikes out on a high fastball that came inside a bit.  He tried to hold up, but couldn't.  1 down.

[Jeff Howe]

Nice liner to center by Flores for a one-out single.

[bourbasted]

Flores gets a 1 out single to center on a solid line-drive.

Massive swings by A-Rod.  He gets a line-drive single off the glove of the 2nd baseman.  All safe.  Men on 1st & 2nd, one out.

[bourbasted]

Crooks and his catcher conspiring at the mound.

[Jeff Howe]

Rodriguez singles over the second baseman’s outstretched glove into right field.

Two on with one out and Jaquae Stewart is off the bench to hit for Farmer.

[Hornito]

Stewart instead of Williams? Oof 

[bourbasted]

Jaquae Stewart to the plate.  I did not have that on my bingo card.  He's pinch hitting for Farmer.

[Jeff Howe]

Cole Chamberlain is in the on-deck circle to bat for Gasparino.

[Hornito]

Schloss letting guys try to contribute more since SEC is already locked up. Okay fine

Not the worst thing for Stewart to get an at-bat in a high-leverage situation.

[Burnt Orange Horn]

PH for Farmer seems nuts to me.

[bourbasted]

Jaquae grounds to first, they take the out at 2nd, Jaquae safe at first, but they are challenging the call.  He beat the throw, but they are checking to make sure he touched the base.  Call confirmed, he was safe.

[Jeff Howe]

It’s first and third with two outs. Stewart’s slide into first base avoids the double play.

Gumbo will run for Stewart.
