Texas-Army Game Thread, Part Deux

[cochamps]

ump doesn't call anything down low

 

[cochamps]

****. Jungmann just doesn't have it. Do we have anybody up?

 

[busterbrown16]

This is not Taylor's day. Time to go to the pen.

 

[GemStateJim]

Army is pitching with the same ump. And that questionable call at first was bang-bang.

It is what it is. Please, let's not aggy this thread up by scapegoating an ump.

 

[cochamps]

double **** 5-3

 

[FWHORN]

Another hit and now its 5-3. Ump or not Taylor just doesnt have it tonight he has struggled every inning.

Lets hope we have the bats to turn this into a shootout as it looks like a long night on the mound. Shinaberry in.

 

[cochamps]

Workman is up? I thought he might hold him for tomorrow.

 

[warrior]

Get Taylor out of there.

 

[Chest Rockwell]

Okay, Shinaberry, you were watching Austin Wood last night, right? Put an end to this right now.

 

[HTownSmitty]

coulda used more than 3.1 innings from the starter. But this is absolutely the right move,

now, can someone please hit a ball at one of our fielders?

 

[FWHORN]

Workman coming in now. Gues that means tomorrow is truly by committee if it comes to that.

 

[warrior]

Army not a bad baseball team but they are not even ranked. Maybe they should be?

 

[warrior]

Texas does not want there to be a game Monday.

Don't give up everyone! Come on Horns! Fight and Win! Let's get those bats going!

 

[FWHORN]

Got out of it giving up just one more. More runs given up in 4 innings tonight than in 34 the past two.

Bats must come alive.

With Workman in tomorrow's pitching will be very iffy.

 

[TomTerrific]

Shinaberry is really disappointing.

 

[Aragorn]

Good job getting out of that inning without more damage. Let's score some runs!

 

[cochamps]

uh, I know Texas does want a game Monday. but it sure is a possibility. Especially the way things are going.

 

[Aragorn]

Preston Clark has sure led off a lot of innings this weekend. It would be nice to get him at the plate with some runners on.

 

[GemStateJim]

Clark to lead off the inning for Texas. He grounds to short, who throws wide but the first baseman makes the tag in time. One away, Keyes up.

Keyes works the count full, then takes the payoff pitch outside for a free pass to first. One on, one out. Rupp up.

Rupp flares one to deep right center. The two outfielders try to track it down but it lands between them. The hit goes for extra bases as Keyes moves to third and Rupp sits on second. One out, Rowe up.

Rowe taps a 2-2 pitch back to the mound for an easy out. Ouch. Two RISP, two out, Hernandez up.

Hernandez grounds meekly to short. Once again, Texas strands plenty and lets the opposing pitcher off the hook. Army still doubling up the 'Horns, 6-3.

To the 5th ...

 

[Aragorn]

We need a hit here.

 

[cochamps]

triple ****

 

[cochamps]

need Hernandez to come thru to make up for the base running gaffe

[cochamps]

quadruple ****

 

[FWHORN]

That sucks. Rowe with a really bad at bat swinging at ball two which forces him to swin later in the count and hit it right to pitcher. then weak grounder by hernandez and two are left in scoring position. Of this are ballgames lost.

 

[swraith]

this game is going to be over quickly as we continue to strand runners in scoring position

 

[cochamps]

The ump is giving him pitches that are outside to right hand hitters when we pitch. imo

 

[Lat22]

We all love the Army and stuff, but there is no reason that the University of By God Texas isn't absolutely lighting up their 4th or 5th best pitcher.
