Kansas vs Texas series

[aUTfan]

I do prefer O'Dowd over Kennedy in this spot at the moment.

 

[Chop]

Base hit Jack O'Dowd!!!!!!!



Runners on the corners. One away.

 

[aUTfan]

O'Dowd singles!!! we have a little something cooking again.

 

[aUTfan]

Now it's time for the top of the lineup to do it's job here.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Finally! Coach's efforts to get ODowd going paid off. Single to RF, Gasparino to 3rd. 1 out.

 

[Chop]

Put in a speedy runner for Jack, and try to steal 2nd here?

 

[aUTfan]

Put in a speedy runner for Jack, and try to steal 2nd here?

NO!!!!! you only have 2 outs to give. Focus on getting the tying run home first.

 

[Chop]

Way to read Hornfans.com coach.

Gumbo to run for O'Dowd.

 

[aUTfan]

a sac bunt would work for me though but 3rd is inside the baseline so that's likely a no go.

 

[aUTfan]

Gumbo is in to try and prevent the DP.

 

[Chop]

Thomas

Base hit RBI!!!!!!!

Tie game!!!!!

2-2

 

[Phil Elliott]

JT doubles to LF gap! Gasparino scores!

 

[FWHORN]

 

[Chop]

And speedy Gumbo runs all the way to 3rd!!!!!

Men on 2nd and 3rd, with one out. (2 of the fastest men on the team on 2nd and 3rd that is... Gumbo and Thomas)

 

[aUTfan]

There you GOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

And that is why Gumbo is in there, stretch that single into a two base 1st to 3rd!!!

Runners on 2nd and 3rd, still 1 out.

 

[aUTfan]

Flores with the chance to walk this off AGAIN!!!

 

[Phil Elliott]

JFlo flies out to deep CF. JDup scores and Horns walk it off AGAIN!

 

[Chop]

SAC FLY!!!!!!!

Gumbo comes home!!!!!!

3-2 WIN!!!!!!!

 

[aUTfan]

WALK OFF!!!!

 

[FWHORN]

Well the evening just turned didn’t it.

 

[Chop]

Three cheers to the DuPlantier brothers!!!




Dre and Gumbo!!!









(I think Gumbo has a given name, but nobody seems to know what it is...)

 

[aUTfan]

No homeruns tonight but the top of the lineup finally comes through.

 

[Chop]

No homeruns tonight but the top of the lineup finally comes through.

As did the bottom of the lineup at the end of the game.

 

[FWHORN]

That bottom of the ninth is certainly helping my attitude as I sit here watching the Rangers get beat. Win tomorrow and Texas in all likelihood is the two seed in the Big XII tournament in Arlington and gets a bye avoiding the first day of games. With the tournament format the way it is, saving pitchers from that game could be huge.

 

[Chop]

Bottom of the 9th, Longhorns down 2-1.

GASPARINO --- WALK

O'DOWD -- BASE HIT. GASPARINO TO 3RD

ENTER GUMBO TO RUN FOR O'DOWD

THOMAS -- BASE HIT!!! RBI, GASPARINO COMES HOME

TIE GAME 2-2!!!


GUMBO TO 3RD, THOMAS STRETCHES IT TO 2ND

FLORES -- FLY BALL TO CENTER FIELD; GUMBO TAGS HOME FOR THE WINNING RUN!!!!!!

LONGHORN VICTORY!!!!!! 3-2

 

[Chop]

Three cheers to the DuPlantier brothers!!!




Dre and Gumbo!!!









(I think Gumbo has a given name, but nobody seems to know what it is...)

 

[Chop]

Another Conference Series Victory!!!!!

Congrats Horns!!!!!

 

[Chop]

And don't forget Max Grubbs, who once again pitched very well (about half the game, only surrendering 1 run) with little run support.

Grubbs' Cumulative 2024 stats:
3.53 ERA
1.31 WHIP
64.0 Innings Pitched
not too shabby

The Groundout King

 

[STHAustin]

I normally don’t like a bottom of the 9th at DFF, but that was pretty fun

 

[WorsterMan]

Wow, sorry I missed the Horns MAGIC to win this game!!!

Gives me hope this team has a soul to not give up and WIN GAMES!!!
