CWS Game 10 Texas v. Virginia June 24, 2021

[Chop]

Good discipline on not chasing the clearly low breaking ball and that 2nd high ball clearly out of the zone.

 

[giveemhell]

The guy who's been in the playoff batting slump with the heroic hit. If we've learned anything from Omaha over the years, it's that it always seems to be someone from an unexpected place who saves the day

I was just thinking that Zubia is normally a patient batter at the plate.

 

[mchammer]

Chopper who is the new pitcher?

Where's the strut now Vasily?

 

[Chop]

I was just thinking that Zubio is a patient batter at the plate.

A number of posters were down on him earlier in the season for taking too many strikes and striking out looking, but Zubia's disciplined hitting and only going after the good stuff strategy really paid off this time.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Zubia actually choked up with 2 strikes. Now go tell your teammates about this 'secret'.

 

[Chop]

Chopper who is the new pitcher?

More chopped liver.
This time with onions.

Q: what do the different stickers on the back of the batting helmets represent?

Pls excuse my ignorance.

 

[WorsterMan]

Melendez is my MVP - 2 clutch hits. Zubia is close runner up. Silas gets my MVP on Defense.

Kyle Whitten
3.23 ERA
0-1
37 SO
18 walks

I thought he was going to be the top reliever tonight?

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Well done boys, it's closing time

 

[WorsterMan]

6-2

I corrected that...

 

[Chop]

I was expecting they'd put in a pitcher (Nate Savino) with high velocity that was drafted high in the MLB, but whom the fans are split on. But nope. We got Wyatt and then Whitten as their relievers.

Folks, nobody has a deep quality pitching staff like we do. Get a few pitchers down in most bullpens and it drops off a cliff.

Kyle Whitten

dude threw in the low to mid 90s but that fastball was "heavy" as we used to say

 

[Hollandtx]

Where are y'all watching the game? I can't find it!

 

[Chop]

I thought he was going to be the top reliever tonight?

I thought it would be Neeck and maybe Savino. But nope. We got relievers that we mostly abused. Or at least Wyatt we abused.

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Daly is going to be something special here

and maybe in the bigs

 

[WorsterMan]

HORNS WIN!!! 6-2

Bring on the Bulldawgs for a rematch!

[Chop]

Quick!

Somebody send a few smokin hot girls and several bottles of whiskey to Bednar's hotel room, and pronto!

Whitten did pretty well. It was Wyatt that earped all over the field.

 

[mchammer]

Quick!

Somebody send a few smokin hot girls and several bottles of whiskey to Bednar's hotel room, and pronto!

Won’t we face the 2nd pitcher who had a short outing last time or the 3rd pitcher?

 

[mchammer]

Quick!

Somebody send a few smokin hot girls and several bottles of whiskey to Bednar's hotel room, and pronto!

Save Bednar for Saturday or even for opening game of the finals if they win Friday.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Congrats to Coach Pierce who now has as many CWS wins as the entire aggie baseball program.
