CWS Game 14 Texas v. Mississippi State June 26, 2021

[huisache]

You guys are total homers. Miss State has a good team and are the Cinderela.

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Not sure I'd stick with Cole here but I'm damned sure behind him now

 

[mchammer]

You guys are total homers. Miss State has a good team and are the Cinderela.

They want them to win since they never won before.

 

[Statalyzer]

Let's hope the pinch runner comes back to bite them in extra innings ... but it's probably a smart play.

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

That could come back to haunt us. Cole had that batter

 

[Statalyzer]

Ugh, a lower throw and we might have had him.

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Damn

Put the batter on to get a force play opp

 

[Giovanni Jones]

Oh hell

 

[WorsterMan]

Crap...

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

That could come back to haunt us. Cole had that batter

Ouch. Awesome effort by Cole tho.

 

[mchammer]

Great season.

 

[Phil Elliott]

We just werent good enuf to beat MSU and the SEC homer umpires. We are a very young team tho.

 

[ut1969]

You don't call for a slider when the ump is giving the outside pitch. Fastball outside. Horrible

 

[Chop]

Fantastic season.
What a pitching staff.
I think all the top pitchers will be back except Madden (to the pros early).

Good job team and coaches!

 

[TexasFight86]

Great season, coaching matters. The extra game put us behind the 8 ball and this team responded like champs. Proud of them. Would’ve been nice to have that 3-2 lead in the 9th but MSU’s bats got it done. Came up 1 run short 2x to the probable champs.

 

[VYFan]

Two pretty small mistakes--our good pitcher hits the guy on the foot, and our good catcher throws a high ball to second. Then, just a simple single is all it took.

 

[FWHORN]

I will have more thoughts tomorrow but for tonight I am gutted for these kids, they had an incredible regular season and then an incredible post season run. They played their best ball late and they gave us fans their everything so all I want to say tonight is thank you, thank you to each and every member of this team for giving us such a wonderful run, thank you for all the late night wins, thank you for the effort that was always present, thank you for the nonstop heart and guts you showed from February to June, thank you for keeping on fighting, thank you for the grit you showed all season long, just in every way I can say, thank you Texas baseball 2021 you did us all as proud as can be!

 

[George Bailey]

I'll take finishing in the top 3 in the nation. Would've liked more, but MSU is a great team and they just don't quit.

 

[ViperHorn]

In the end what killed Texas in Arlington in February killed them in Omaha in June.

Pierce seemingly has solved the pitching puzzle; now can he solve the K problem?

 

[Vol Horn 4 Life]

Great season guys! Here's to playing your asses off!

 

[Pomspoms]

Two pretty small mistakes--our good pitcher hits the guy on the foot, and our good catcher throws a high ball to second. Then, just a simple single is all it took.

True, hit the batter on the foot with a 1-2 count. Monumental mistake. But that's baseball.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Baseball is a cruel game.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Coach Pierce: "My only regret is that this team will never be 'this team' ever again.". Ouch.

 

[2003TexasGrad]

Coach Pierce: "My only regret is that this team will never be 'this team' ever again.". Ouch.

Hes right.

 

[TexasFight86]

A memorable team for sure and one that could've won it all. Had the pitching, defense, and character to do it. Short on hitting at times. But what a fun ride! Thank you players and coaches for giving it all. it was a blast to watch.

 

[WorsterMan]

I'm very proud of this team and what they accomplished this season.

Lots of talent. Much of it coming back.

Team faced adversity with backs against the wall many times... the team and individual players stepped up, executed and often times closed the door on a win or rallied to score a run(s) to win.

You are Big XII Champions and made it to the CWS!!!

THE EYES OF TEXAS ARE UPON YOU!

 

[Chop]

The Baseball team was a great success this year.

 

[Creek]

Although this team didn't win it all they truly represented as well as any team I can remember in any sport at Texas.
