  1. The Huskies have a runner on base. Walker couldn't quite get to Bard's ground ball and Flores couldn't run up on it in time to make that play at first. It's scored as a single.
  2. You appreciate a pitcher who can field his position. Walker retires Hendricks after a competitive AB.
  3. The call is confirmed. A 9-2 double play gets HCU out of the jam and abruptly ends the bottom of the second for Texas.
  4. Mendoza broke for home on a liner to right by Schuessler. He's thrown out at home on a double play, but we've got a conference between the umpires.
  5. Seemed from up here like Max had trouble picking up the breaking ball in that AB.
  6. Belyeu got jammed and dribbled one between the plate and the mound. It effectively works like a sacrifice. He's retired on a 1-3 groundout, but there are runners in scoring position for Schuessler.
  7. Galvan draws a walk. Only five of Edwards' first 11 pitches have been strikes.
  8. Mendoza did a really good job of staying alive with two strikes. He's on base after taking one in the shoulder.
  9. You ain't lyin. 10-2 lead for the Pirates in the top of the sixth.
  10. Mendoza, Galvan and Belyeu are due up in the home half.
  11. If you blinked, you might've missed the top of the first. Ethan Walker got through it on six pitches, retiring the Huskies in order.
  12. Unfortunately, he doesn't determine when those games are played. When Texas moved to the SEC, the conference took control of its Tier 3 broadcast rights. Instead of the option to put games on LHN, the Longhorns play when the conference decides it makes sense.
  13. Houston Christian LF Jack Walker hits third in the order. He's the son of legendary LSU infielder Todd Walker, a 12-year Major Leaguer who left LSU as the all-time SEC leader hits, runs scored, RBI and total bases.
  14. Parker Edwards from HCU is a righty, which explains why Schloss is going with Jonah over Tommy Farmer in the lineup.
  15. If you haven’t accounted for extra traffic due to McCombs Field hosting the UIL softball tournament, you need to get in the car ASAP.
  16. Walker, Bing and Flores are/were the options.
  17. One adjustment is that it sounds like the (temporary?) batter's eye won't be as tall as it was before. Assuming it's not 28 feet, I wonder how (if at all) that changes the rule of a ball that hits the monster counts as a home run.
  18. I'll never forget asking T'Vondre Sweat before the 2023 season started why he felt confident Texas would live up to expectations. His answer was four letters. "F-A, F-O," he said with a straight face. That set the tone for a memorable season.
  19. That's it for the press conference. CJ, Blake and I are recording this week's edition of "Based Loaded" in a few minutes. It'll be out later today.
