Top 2 right now tied 1-1. Horns got a run in bottom of first on Payton RBI single as he continues his hot hitting from yesterday. Sac State tied it up in top 2nd and has two on with two out.
 
Thornhill got out of second with no further damage and Horns went 1-2-3 in bottom of inning. 2 full done and tied 1-1.
 
Thornhill getting hit hard in third, three hits has plated one run and runners on second and third with just one out. Horns now trail 2-1.
 
Infield single plates another and Horns now trail 3-1 with runners on the corners and 1 out.
 
Shades of the 8th inning last night as error by shortstop allows another run to plate without an out. 4-1 now and runners on first and second.

Double play ends the inning but not before 3 runs cross the plate. 4-1 Sac State through 2.5 innings.
 
Two errors on Hinojosa today. Thornhill having problems spotting his pitches and he has to be able
to do that.

Need the bats again today.
 
Thornhill gives up 1 out single in fourth, gets a fly out and then is pulled for Cox after having pitched 3 and 2/3. He gave up 4 runs (3 earned) on 6 hits and is responsible for runner on first.
 
Cox induces a grounder to short stop for third out. Headed to bottom four trailing 4-1. Need the bats to come alive.
 
Payton reaches on throwing error to start bottom of fourth. Carter hits into fielders choice and is then picked off first in running error. Felts then K's to end fourth for Horns, still down 4-1.
 
All the bad habits from last season rearing it's ugly
head again. The errors and now down three runs
you get picked off first.

Down 4-1 and the bats have gone silent in the 5th
now.
 
Cox gets a quick 1-2-3 inning in top of fifth. Really could use some offense as only two hits thus far for Horns.
 
Hinojosa grounds out to third to start bottom of fifth. McElroy follows with one out single. Hall with a slow grounder is thrown out at first but advances the runner into scoring position. Moynihan with RBI single plates the run to cut the deficit to 4-2.
 
Stell is HBP and Horns now have two on with two out for Weiss, but he flies out to left to end threat and the inning. 5 full done and Horns trail 4-2.
 
Horns go down 1-2-3 in bottom of sixth on two ground outs and a k by Payton, Carter and Felts and after 6 full trail 4-2.
 
Cox gives up a 1 out single and a stolen base, then with two outs another single plates the run and deficit is now 5-2 at the seventh inning stretch.
 
Horns give up another cheap run as on a two out
steal attempt Felts makes a perfect throw. It would
have been the third out, but the runner kicks the ball
out of Weis's glove. Then a single scores him.

I't's 5-2 Sac. St. to the bottom of the 7th.
 
Hinojosa gets a lead off single but McElroy flies out and Hall grounds out for two quick outs. Moynihan gets an infield single but with runners on the corners Stell grounds out to end inning. 7 full done and Horns trail 5-2.
 
This game is so remeniscent of last year it is sickening. A team Texas should be ringing up is instead about to put an ugly early season home loss on the Horns.
 
Duke came on to pitch 8th for Horns and gave up a 1 out single but otherwise worked his way through inning with no damage. Bottom 8 and Horns better wake up down 5-2.
 
Carter with an RBI single cuts deficit to 5-3.

He is on first with one out and tying run is at plate.

Second pitching change of inning for Sac State.
 
Hinojosa adds to his bad day by striking out to end the inning. 8 innings done and Horns trail 5-3.
