Texas at TCU May 7-9, 2021

[LHABSOB]

Argh. Zubia takes strike 3, right down the alley with 2 on. Lose 2-1. We left 11 on base in the game and ran into 3 silly outs on the base paths. Must win tomorrow.

 

[SabreHorn]

Man in scoring position down by one, with two outs & two strikes in the last inning,
HOW IN THE HELL DO YOU WATCH THAT FAST BALL WALTZ THROUGH YOUR WHEELHOUSE?

Then looking at umpire like it was low or inside or whatever his naptime told him it was.

More than a little bit displeased.

 

[Run Pincher]

Because the offensive strategy today appeared to be swing at the bad pitches and watch the good ones go by.

 

[old65horn]

too many strikeouts all year long.

who is the damn hitting coach?

 

[SabreHorn]

who is the damn hitting coach?

Stevie Wonder

 

[Baseballgawd]

Cool play

Been there both games. This play easily the best of both games. Almost like a Mike Trout Jr. A scary out every at bat and his speed is rediculous in the outfield. This play saved that game.

 

[HornHuskerDad]

Tough to waste a very good pitching performance by giving him no run support. This is one the Horns had for the taking. On to tomorrow's game - need a W.

 

[Chop]

I like to see aggressiveness on the base pads, but we may have been a bit too reckless out there today. Either that or we just had some brain farts on the base pads.

 

[George Bailey]

Stevie Wonder

I never saw that coming.

 

[FWHORN]

Wasted a great pitching effort. Sunday game is most important game of year thus far, Horns will have to show up with maximum effort.

Saturday game reviews:

No. 6 Baseball falls 2-1 at No. 3 TCU - University of Texas Athletics

No. 3 TCU beats No. 6 Texas 2-1

 

[Phil Elliott]

Zach Zubia now has double-digit HRs in a season for the first time since he was a freshman.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Now Cam W goes yard for his 9th HR this year. Finally, a crooked number!

 

[WorsterMan]

Cant find game on any DFW channels....

 

[SabreHorn]

It's on ESPN+ IF you know what that is or how to get it. Comcast has no one in Guadalajara, Honduras, or Dominican Republic that knows; hence I don't have it.

 

[HornHuskerDad]

Sabre is right - it's on ESPN+. I don't get that channel, so I'm following it on the ESPN app on my cell. Bottom of fifth, Horns up 5-0.

 

[WorsterMan]

Yeah, no + for me. Thanks for the updates!

5-0 - HOOK 'EM !!!

 

[Phil Elliott]

My bad on Zubias HR totals. He now has 9. I thot he had 9 coming into today. He will prolly make 10+ b4 the season is over tho.

 

[Creek]

I smell run rule

 

[Phil Elliott]

Now 9-0 horns as zubias single plates 2.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Too bad we didnt put some of these runs across yesterday and give Stephens some support.

 

[mchammer]

Too bad we didnt put some of these runs across yesterday and give Stephens some support.

Or come through against the middle game against Tech.

 

[WorsterMan]

Horns will win today but still 1 game back of frogs I. The conference. Horns need to sweep a mediocre WV team last series @ Disch and get some help from KSU vs. Frogs next weekend.

 

[Driver 8]

Texas scores in a tweetstorm

 

[HornHuskerDad]

Currently 9-0, top of 8. If you're in the DFW Metroplex, you can get the radio broadcast on the TCU FM station - 88.7

[Driver 8]

Nice to be slapping their asses around on the rubber game today

 

[Vol Horn 4 Life]

So if we protect this win we are one game back. That means we need to sweep WVU and TCU lose one to tie for 1st or two for us to outright win the conference. Right?

 

[FWHORN]

Biggest game of year so far and Texas showed up in every phase with dominant pitching and dominant offense. Horns will stay solidly in line for a National seed though they need to not sleep on these last five games as a slip up here at end could drop them and last thing Texas wants is a super regional trip to some SEC park. This weekend was a nice test though of dealing with a super regional road type crowd and what that might be like.

 

[HornHuskerDad]

Still 9-0, top on the ninth. It would be nice to wrap up the shutout.

 

[WorsterMan]

So if we protect this win we are one game back. That means we need to sweep WVU and TCU lose one to tie for 1st or two for us to outright win the conference. Right?

I believe that is correct.
