Bases loaded for Texas, score is 3-1, 3-2 count on Jonathan Walsh, Walsh fouls off two straight pitches, swung on, fly ball to the outfield, but caught. 3-1 UT going to the 8th.
Knebel comes in for the ninth, and is "on fire." Strikes out the first two batters, then gets 0-2 on next batter, then 1-2, then 2-2, then barely a foul tip, then strike three called! Struck out the side, gets the save, Texas 3-Tx St. 1.
Can Cory Knebel become the regular closer? Craig Way raved about his appearance tonight. That could solve a few problems if Knebel can be consistent in the closer role.
Nice midweek win. Texas State is going to win a few against some big names and this was a nice performance by pitching staff. Still troubled by the bats and the lack of real clutch hitting. A lot of runners LOB again tonight.
