  1. Yeah, now that was a base-running mistake, no defense for that one.
  2. Time to make like a piñata and bust this thing wide open.
  3. W-L S IP H R ER BB K 2B 3B HR HBP 0-0 0 10.1 6 5 4 3 17 3 0 0. 0
  4. Yeah but Schloss has always had an aggressive offense that applies pressure on the base paths. Sometimes if you can speed up the defense they will start making fielding mistakes. When he coached at TCU he was the only coach that scared me and gave Augie Garrido fits.
  5. Umps not helping him on the corners of the plate.
  6. Tacked on another run and got his pitch count over 40 so another successful inning.
  7. It looks like if we can push over another run without an out they will pull their starter. Gumbo needs to make them roux the day they pitched to him.
  8. And more than likely they are going to pitch around him for the rest of the game, getting him some walks. But hey, what do I know.
  9. Ballgame, just a perfect outcome. Nobody panic, we're setup well for tomorrow.
  10. 3 more outs. This game couldn't have been scripted better for the horns, just gotta close it out.
  11. Yes, yes he does, and that's important. Thank you sir.
  12. Say what you want about Gumbo but if this were basketball he is the clear 6th man.
  13. At this point with the bottom of the order coming up and no real matchup advantage I'd leave Harrison in for the 7th, especially if they can tack on another run or two.
  14. Harrison is going into the sixth with at least a two run lead while Ole Miss is on their third pitcher. He did what we needed him to do and the bats have picked him up. If he can get through the heart of their order then we can go to the bullpen feeling pretty good.
  15. Every time Borba makes a pick at first it looks like it's going to dribble free.
  16. Chased the second pitcher, so far the plan is working out.
  17. It was scored a wild pitch. I do wonder how many passed balls Tinney has this year.
  18. And their starter is out. It sucks he got hurt but it bodes well for the rest of the series having Ole Miss go to the bullpen in the second.
  19. I'm here, don't make me regret it..... The only thing I will say about Tinney is he's our starting catcher which means he touches the ball more than anyone else on the team and defensively he's been more than serviceable. If you bench him, you could destroy any confidence and then you've got one option at catcher. Plus he is a top NIL earner on the team, but this isn't the majors, you can't structure performance into the contracts, at least I don't think you can YET. We don't need his bat right now as well as everyone else is swinging it so any Manager/Coach worth a damn is going to keep him in the lineup. If you move him to eighth they might pitch around him but he does get on base. He also has the fewest at bats for a Longhorn starter because of the Walks with Pack having Fewer because they've been keeping Duplantier engaged. Temo has as many at bats because he scares the crap out of pitchers at this point with his trademark three run homers.
  20. How many times have you seen an SEC team mow down all comers in a season and then get bounced in a Regional. This team, like all teams, needs to grow throughout the season, that's a lot easier to do when your flaws get exposed and you have to face adversity so hopefully this is the good adversity that leads to growth. I liked watching them win 16 in a row, but even I started hoping for a loss. And JMarquette, there was supposedly this great bat on the team last year named Will Gasparino, who slumped and spiraled, so much so that he transferred to UCLA where he is knocking the cover off the ball. Weird s*** happens in a baseball season.
  21. He's a good catcher with power, so I disagree unless Ermis is hitting well at practice.
