Horns v. aTm, Game 1

[warrior]

Horns falied to get a clutch hit again. Bottom of the 4th, Aggies 1 Horns 0.

 

[Chest Rockwell]

Felts "improves" on that 0.212 BA (0.171 in Conf play).

 

[warrior]

I am signing off, Have a great evening and Go Horns!

 

[accuratehorn]

Aggy gets one out single, now with four hits. Another hit leaves men on first and second.

 

[accuratehorn]

Wow, brilliant double play by Eric Weiss, steps on third, guns it to first, dug out by Shephard. We are hanging on by a fingernail.

 

[Chest Rockwell]

[ Milo Hamilton ] Put a blue star next to that one. Nice dig on the DP by Tant Shepherd. [ /Milo Hamilton ]

 

[Chest Rockwell]

Q: What is worse than playing small-ball?
A: Playing small-ball like a bunch of F*cking morons!!

2 picks off and 2 failed sac attempts thru 4.2

 

[accuratehorn]

Damn, damn, damn, damn, damn, damn.
First we get a man on first because aggy neglected to cover first, thinking a grounder had been caught.
Then, we bunt to the pitcher who again throws to second to kill the lead runner.
Then a foul ball deep allows runner at second to tag, go to third, then Payton stupidly gets picked off third. What next? We don't seem to want to win this game.
Wow.

 

[Chest Rockwell]

Hiddle ball trick, really?? That's like our golf team falling for the exploding golf ball during conference play.

 

[Bevo-Stevo]

G-sus....can't lay down a sac bunt when you absolutely need to execute? Lack of hitting and plate production will be the doom of this team and it's too bad because if they has 1/2 the lineup of the LSU team they lost to 2 years ago they would walk away with the NC.

 

[accuratehorn]

The good news we have the best pitcher in college baseball on the mound and the score is only 1-0. The bad news is we look like the Bad News Bears.

 

[accuratehorn]

Now Taylor walks a man, then we call a pitchout and mishandle it as the runner steals second. What next? This is ugly, now an RBI single, it's 2-0. We are going down like the Titanic.

 

[Chest Rockwell]

Aggies are showing the advantage of timely hitting vs. overall base-runners. Frustrating start.

 

[Hook 'Em Danno]

 

[Bill in Sinton]

We were fortunate that inning to only give up one run. But now we have to start getting runs and stop messing up on opportunities. We have had our chances. Come on Horns! Fight and Win!

 

[H-D Rider]

Texas is showing the disadvantage of untimely hitting, knuckle-headed base-running and the inability to make plays! Very disappointing....

 

[Bill in Sinton]

It looks bad on this one. I hope Augie chews them out good.

 

[Texanne]

Brutal. Just brutal.

 

[TEASIP84]

We can't lose to these aggies wearing their god awful looking uniforms.

 

[Chest Rockwell]

Horns have something going on. Bases loaded, 1 out, Payton up . . .

 

[Horn87]

so how many of the runs are actually earned??

 

[Chest Rockwell]

Wild pitch scores a run.

 

[TEASIP84]

Finally get a break...wild pitch scores runner on third...we need to get a big inning...Stilson is out of gas

 

[TEASIP84]

Stilson walks 7th batter of the night...bases loaded...1 out. Pitching change

 

[Chest Rockwell]

Tant coming up with the bases drunk . . . and Stilson is done.

Top of 7th, Horns with only 1 out down 1-2.

 

[TEASIP84]

Did I mention how much I hate having to listen to Dave South...

 

[H-D Rider]

Then don't listen to Dave South!

 

[TEASIP84]

Done deal....MUTED!

 

[TEASIP84]
