  1. Here's one you didn't mention. The Arkie rivalry for sure has been resurrected, even if it some people think it's more them than us.
  2. Kavan started and pitched 3.1 innings against OU on 4/7. She left behind 1-0 and was replaced by Estelle Czech. Czech pitched the last 3.2 and got the win. A 2-run HR off of Maxwell by Katie Stewart was the game winner.
  3. Kavan only killed for the two games against Stanford, a decent team that is a mediocre one without Canady. She was not good against A$M in the Super. Against A$M (6 IP across parts of games 2, 3) 6 IP, 9H 8R 7 ER, 5 BB, 7K She was mediocre in the Super Regional. None of the pitchers were great coming into the WCWS, but Kavan wasn't solid for 4 games in a row. Morgan was the WP in both of the wins over A$M in the Super.
  4. My issue isn't that Kavan started. I have a huge issue that she was in the circle for the third HR. She should have been gone after the second HR. Mac was already warm. Every ball they hit that inning was barreled. Also, Vivi was no help on the single up the middle before that second HR.
  5. Never assume anything with Mike White. I could see him pitch Gutierrez tomorrow.
  6. Should have pulled her after the first one in this inning. Every contact this inning has been on the screws. Even if it's over (I don't think it is yet), we need to hit to show we can score. We have 5 more ABs left. We just need to stop the bleeding.
  7. White needs to pull her. She's not on her game and she's not getting any calls. She gets shelled when she pitches from behind.
  8. If she doesn't start getting some calls, it's gonna be a long day. She got squeezed by the ump early. If Kavan can't pitch from ahead, she'll get shelled. That happens again in T2 and we might see Mac or Estelle.
  9. Yeah they have. Teagan started the game on 4/7 that Texas won 2-1 and pitched 3.2 innings. Estelle Czech pitched the rest of the game.
  10. I'll have to catch this on a replay. Starting at 7pm, I have some Longhorn ladies to support against Zero U. 🤘 #WCWS
  11. Then again, after another 2-run bomb in T2, maybe they can. 😁
  12. Not ignoring recent results (including T1 of this game), but I don't think Florida can get in a slugfest with Zero U. Not with Maxwell in the circle. I know Florida is the #4 offense, but Maxwell is more elite than a heavily-used Rothrock. JMO.
  13. She's getting tougher (and more calls) as the games goes along. Getting a feel for her change up.
  14. They were but the losers of the games between the two 1-0 teams swap brackets. Three of the four teams left are from Texas' side of the bracket.
  15. Stage was set for Flores redemption. Thought he was gonna do it. Bummer. I doubt this game will go on his highlights reel.
  16. Very true. Belyeu was the B12 Player of the year though, so he's one of the leaders... along with Thomas and Flores.
  17. Depends on the level of minor league ball. But yes, some are better than some minor league teams.
  18. If this guy and Danny Davis are correct, she's the first UT Freshman pitcher to do it. https://x.com/ChrisBrown_AL/status/1796362869136851275?t=Mqpo0e6jSIR2roRCYj3GGg&s=19
  19. I believe she is the first TEXAS freshman to throw a shutout in the WCWS... not the first ever overall. Although I admit I can't tell you for sure that's the case. The graphic was specific to Texas history.
  20. Why illegal? If you're thinking safety, she had a pitcher's mask on. Even without the mask, I would think they'd be ok as long as they meet safety protocols. We know some pitchers wear corrective eyewear (Rx glasses), so why wouldn't sunglasses be ok? Outside of safety protocols, the only reason I could see shades not being allowed would be if the sunglasses created a distraction by reflection of light .
  21. The horrible call on Dayton's slide at home is yet another example of umpiring incompetence. White had to burn a challenge on an obvious blown call. Luckily, he hasn't had to challenge another yet. Still 1.5 innings before possible crew reviews.
  22. I wonder how much MLB paid him to go away. They had to want him out badly and have shown that they don't have the balls to fight the union and fire him outright.
  23. OK, so I was being the slightest bit sarcastic. Good riddance, although he has provided some real comedy gold while screwing up every MLB game he umpires.
  24. They overturned the ones that Price and the A$M coach challenged in game 1. I didn't count them all, and bang-bang play challenges will be iffy. But some of these calls are so horrid that it's impossible to believe all 4 umps missed the calls. The foul off Trinity Cannon's foot was so obvious it never should have needed to be challenged by A$M.
