Horns vs. KU

Might have been mentioned on an earlier post, but Dylan Campbell extended his hitting streak to 26 games--Texas single-season record.
 
Ive been calling for Ace to be our closer for a while now not so much cuz hes unhittable but I just think he has the right temperament. He made me look good today.

It wasnt pretty but Ill take 2/3 on the road any day.

Thank you. It is really appreciated.:clap::headbang:
I tried to do it for a few innings and it is HARD
But if they had lost I am not sure how much thanks you would get.

Had to watch this one on replay.

What a great 7th inning combination of small ball (bunts) and long ball (Kennedy 2 run homer). Weird 9th inning where (arguably) our best player (Powell) almost threw the game for us with an uncharacteristic error. But it was all good in the end. It's not easy winning a series on the road--even against Kansas. Pitching was mostly ok until late in the game. Witt is working back from serious injury. Sthele ate a lot of innings in long relief without giving up many runs, and got a lot of strikeouts. Boogie got the outs when it counted at the end. And the bats! Wow, we got a lot of hits today. Thomas is still on fire. Campbell, obviously is. Kennedy with the key HR. O'Dowd continues to rack up hits, as does Guillemette (and GG had a rather weird looking, yet effective, bunt).

Congrats Horns, and a special Congrats to Dylan Campbell with his record-setting hitting streak!

don’t know if he’s closing material but the kid throws strikes, I know what I get with Ace, he loves being a horn and that means a lot to me, I don’t care where he ends up position wise, I’m just happy he contributes in any way he can to help the team. He’s a horn for life in my book!

You’re welcome my friend, I’ve been on the receiving end, jonesing for info, glad I can spell chop for a bit. I did my best to make it make sense and keep things in perspective in the moment.

Yes, kudos for the effort. Sorry I was a distractor. I was watching too and expressing obviously.
 
Yes, major props to both Chop and aUTfan for their efforts with the color and play-by-play for games. When I can't watch or listen to the games, I would much rather read their real-time game reporting after the fact than some lousy box score
 
The Kansas ballpark. Looks old school with the brick. The dugouts look nice. There's a short distance from the catcher to the backstop, so a lot of past balls with runners on 3rd will not score. Not sure if we'll ever lay there again. A guy in the cartoon bird suit was walking around during some of the games. By the look of the flags, it was quite windy. Great Plains.
 
I hope KU gets the last spot in the tournament, rather than Baylor. Both KU and Baylor are chock full of the overly self-righteous types, but for completely different reasons. To be fair to all, I've known some good folks affiliated with both places.
