SEC Baseball Tournament: No. 2 Texas vs. No. 21 Tennessee game thread

[bourbasted]

Hope they don't use up Ethan, want him fresh for the Series....  😁

[Jeff Howe]

Dean Curley's one-out double to left field in the top of the fifth is the first hit allowed by Ethan Walker today.

[Jeff Howe]

Max Weiner is out for a mound visit.

Grayson Saunier is up in the bullpen.

[Jeff Howe]

I think we're getting to the end of the line for Walker today.

[Jeff Howe]

Chapman gets plunked by Walker and that'll be it for him. He was phenomenal today.

[Jeff Howe]

Grayson Saunier inherits runners on first and second with one out in the top of the fifth.

[.45s]

Walker did a great job.

[bourbasted]

Well done, Ethan!

[Jeff Howe]

The game is delayed while they make an umpire switch. One of the umpires took a foul ball to the head.

[Jack Lala]

Ridiculous.  Umpires made the Horns stand around for 5 minutes while they pulled their heads out of their asses.

Way back in the day they'd give him a beer and cigarette and continue playing 😂 

[Jeff Howe]

Play resumes and instead of a double play, Flores bobbles the ball. Now, Tennessee has the bases loaded with one out against Saunier.

[bourbasted]

Wow, costly one from Flores there.  Hard to be mad, but it's a head shaker to be sure.

[Bevo92]

wtf, that was an easy double play botched for no outs.  Bases loaded now.  

[Jeff Howe]

Cannon Peebles' bloop single to shallow center scores two runs. It's a 4-2 game in favor of the Longhorns.

[Jeff Howe]

Tennessee has runners on first and second with one out.

that hurts.  bloop hit up the middle for 2 runs after botched double play.  

[JMarquette]

Jalin Flores error leads to runs in a big game - where have I heard this before?

[Jeff Howe]

Flores makes up for it on a ground ball hit to him. A 6-4-3 double play ends the inning.

[Jeff Howe]

Two runs on two hits with one left on for Tennessee in the fifth.

[Jeff Howe]

M5: Texas 4, Tennessee 2

[taxsaver]

well, then, it's time to score some runs

[Jeff Howe]

Brandon Arvidson, the Tennessee reliever, was headed to Texas until the coaching change. He was at Texas A&M in 2023, transferred to San Jac for 2024 and he's now in the Tennessee bullpen.

[Jeff Howe]

A one-out walk and a stolen base by Schuessler puts a runner in scoring position with one out.

[Jeff Howe]

Two down after Rodriguez strikes out swinging.
