Torres Kswinging
Tucker F9
Belt Kswinging

Jungmann on the bump for the bottom half of the first

Maitland in left field, btw
 
For those who can't watch the video link (see other thread) or who can't listen to the game, Texas is up, 2-0, heading into the top of the fifth.

Jungmann looks sharp--I believe the radio guys said he had seven Ks through four innings.
 
Texas starts the fifth well: Rowe walks and advances to second on Maitland's sacrifice bunt down the first-base line.

Torres follows with an infield single to short. 'Horns now have runners on the corners with one out.

Bleh. Rowe picked off at third as the batter shows bunt but can't connect. Torres on first, two outs.

Tucker grounds to short for the third out. Really let the Bears off the hook that inning.
 
Texas still clinging to a 2-0 lead as the Bears go 1-2-3 in the bottom of the fifth. Jungmann now has 9 Ks through five innings.
 
Belt leads off the top of the sixth with a bunt down the third-base line--a thing of beauty.

Belt advances to second on a sacrifice bunt down the first-base line by Kevin Lusson.

Strike one on Rupp as Belt steals third ... barely.

Rupp walks. Runners on the corners and one out with Keyes at the plate.

Baylor pitcher is hitting 94 mph. Not the best of control, but you can hear his fastballs slapping the catcher's glove.

Keyes hits into double play. Two innings in a row we've let the Bears off the hook.
 
This team has serious issues figuring out how to get a run across with a runner at 3rd with less than 2 outs. I'd be curious of our success rate in that situation this year.
 
Bottom of the sixth, Jungmann gives up a lead-off walk.

Skip convenes a conference on the mound, but Jungman stays in.

Baylor sacrifices runner to second with a bunt down the first-base line. Now would be a good time for Jungmann to add to his K total.

Jungmann grooves the payoff pitch and the batter singles to right. Runner holds on third, so the Bears have runners at the corners with one out.

Grounder to second. Texas tries to turn the double play, but the runner beats the throw at first and a run scores. Texas 2, Baylor 1. The Bears have a runner on first and two outs.

Two-out single up the middle. BU now has runners at the corners.

Jungmann gets the batter to reach for a ball outside to get the third out of the inning and his 10th K of the game. Looks outta gas.

Credit Baylor for taking advantage of that leadoff walk, whereas Texas has gotten the leadoff batter aboard three consecutive innings but only one run to show for it.
 
Ooh, a great strikeout for this 10th K, and Taylor gets out of the innings. Come on offense, give the kid some runs and ensure his win on a superb first start!

2-1 to bot 6th.

PS: The title of this thread is a serius FAIL. Shouldn't tempt baseball Gods like that.
 
Baylor issues a one-out walk to Rowe.

Ugh. Maitland pops up a bunt toward first. Two outs.

Grounder to second ends the inning. Another baserunner stranded.

At the stretch, it's Texas 2, Baylor 1.
 
Dicharry in to pitch for Jungmann. Very fine first start for Taylor--six innings, 1 earned run, three hits, 10 Ks and one very, very costly walk.
 
Dicharry quickly in trouble. Walks the leadoff, who steals second after Tucker can't make the tag (not his fault, however--baserunner slid into his glove, knocking the ball out).

Baylor having its small-ball troubles as well--next batter pops up a bunt for an easy out. Runner on second, one out.

Grounder back to Dicharry, who checks the advancing runner and instead makes the play to first. Bears have a runner at third, two outs.

First-pitch flyout to just beyond the second-base bag for out number three! We really dodged a bullet that inning.

Dicharry is throwing some serious junk. Don't see many college pitchers with that much break to their stuff.
 
Tucker starts the eighth with a leadoff single!

Belt with a deep fly to left center. Tucker remains at first with Kevin Lusson up to bat.

Lusson with a single to center! Two on, one out. Rupp up.

Baylor with a pitching change. Incidentally, Rupp is 2-for-2 on the day and has both RBIs.

Morgan Mickan pinch running for Lusson at first.

Rupp Ks. Stares at the first two pitches and then chases the third.

Keyes with a deep fly to right for out number three. Amazing. That's four out of the past five innings that UT has gotten the leadoff runner on base but only one run to show for it. And, in the other inning, Texas got one on with one out.

Just terrible timing with the bats today.
 
Leadoff single for the Bears. Dicharry being pulled, presumably for Wood.

Indeed, it is Wood, who fields a sacrifice bunt and gets one out. Runner on second.

Rowe runs down a high liner to center, Baylor baserunner has to double back to second and can't advance. Big break there. Two outs.

Wood gets the K to end the inning! Texas hanging on, 2-1, heading into the ninth.
 
Loy with a leadoff single to center. Care to bet what's coming next?

Two foul bunts for Rupp. Guess he'll be swinging now.

Rupp with a popup to shallow right. One out, Maitland up.

Maitland with a comebacker that squirts through the pitcher's glove. Not sure if it'll be marked a hit or an error. Would've been a double-play ball had the pitcher handled it better. Announcers just said it was ruled an infield single. Runners on first and second, one out.

Torres with a bloop RBI single to left! Loy scores, making it Texas 3, Baylor 1. What a job by Torres--that was a beaut of an inside pitch that he fought off. Runners on first and second, one out, Tucker up.

Tucker reaches first on a fielder's choice. Maitland moves to third, Torres out at second. Baylor almost turned the double play. Runners at the corners, two outs, Belt up.

Called strike on an inside pitch gets Belt and out number three for Baylor.

Heading into the bottom of the ninth, Texas leads, 3-1, despite outhitting the Bears 12-4. 'Horns have stranded nine, I believe.

C'mon, D: let's finish this!
 
Leadoff infield single to third. Torres barehands it but the throw isn't in time.

Double play!!! 6-4-3 and Baylor is down to its final out.

Liner to left and Maitland (dunno why I said Belt) makes the catch to end the inning, the game and the series. UT wins, 3-1!!!

Nice sweep, 'Horns.
