Kansas Game 2

[centexorange]

Rupp flys out to end the inning moving on to the 7th

 

[FWHORN]

What is the deal with us and these KU pitchers with ERA's over 5. Good to see our staff is holding up. Hopefully using Ruffin so much last night doesnt come back to haunt us today.

 

[centexorange]

Single to start off the inning no outs.

 

[centexorange]

Walk by Green two on no outs

 

[FWHORN]

Getting into trouble. Come on Cole.

 

[centexorange]

Fly out to right runners stay put..

 

[centexorange]

DOUBLE PLAY!! Horns get out of the inning.. 2-1

 

[FWHORN]

Double Play.

Now lets get some runs.

 

[centexorange]

Keyes up at the plate

 

[Chest Rockwell]

Let's tack on a couple runs here. (thanks again for updates)

 

[FWHORN]

We are making this KU pitcher look a lot better than he is. More K's than hits for second day in a row.

 

[centexorange]

Keyes strike out Moldy ground out 2 down

 

[centexorange]

Lusson k's Horns go in order bottom of the 7th 2-1 horns

 

[FWHORN]

Another K, this is atrocious.

you have to think at this point it is mental with our hitters.

 

[centexorange]

Thomas comes into pitch in the top of the 8th

 

[FWHORN]

Great day for Cole. Cant ask for more. Here is where our ninth inning choke job last night could have repurcussions as no Ruffin to come in and shut this down. Hopefully Thomas can be as clutch as Chance is in these situations.

 

[centexorange]

One down Milner replaces Thomas on the mound

 

[FWHORN]

Maybe Augie is thinking he can get to Chance in the ninth using Thomas for one batter and now Milner.

 

[centexorange]

Single into center field one out

 

[centexorange]

DOUBLE PLAY!! Horns get out of the inning..

 

[FWHORN]

Double Play.

This team has the pitchers and fielding to win it all, just the frickin bats that need to catch up.

Now come on lets get some insurance here.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Jes!

 

[centexorange]

Rowe takes a walk.. No outs bottom of the 8th 2-1 horns

 

[FWHORN]

Lead off man on, lets get to this pitcher.

 

[FWHORN]

Good sacrifice, now lets make it pay off.

 

[centexorange]

Rowe advnaces to 2nd on sac bunt

 

[FWHORN]

Another dang K with runner on third.

 

[Chest Rockwell]

I know Augie loves to get runners in scoring position, but I'd question that approach given our inability to make contact today.

 

[centexorange]

Rowe scores base hit by Loy 3-1

 

[FWHORN]

Normally I dont care for the bunt either but with only three hits today getting a runner in scoring position seems to be the good move and then two shots. Of course Loy getting the clutch hit there helps.
