Stayton Thomas in to try and close out inning. Again depth of this staff is amazing.

 

[Horn2Run]

Thanks for the Tennis updates, FW. Congrats, Horns!

 

[Horn2Run]

inning closed, ground out 4-3.

Texas 4-1.

 

[FWHORN]

Ladies tennis loses 4-0 to the number one ranked Bears but sent 4 singles matches to third set and battled for a while to keep Baylor from getting that fourth clinching point.

Sweep in baseball and we will call it even I guess.

 

[GemStateJim]

Looks like Augie wanted a fresh arm to face Baylor's pinch hitter, Chris Slater, who is .586 on the season with two outs and 12 of his 17 RBI also coming with two outs.

Once again, the Zen Master makes the right call--Thomas induces a grounder to second, which Etier handles and throws to first for out No.3.

 

[FWHORN]

Augie once again showing why he is the best in the game (his love for the bunt aside

)

 

[GemStateJim]

Kempf on for Turley. He did fairly well in relief against us last night, if I recall.

Yup--he and Turley combined for 1.2 scoreless innings before giving way to BU's closer, Pinckard. Hopefully, our Horns won't waste any time in getting to him today.

 

[GemStateJim]

Loy with a single to right. He's having a good day.

Where's Texanne to sing of her love for Loy?

 

[FWHORN]

Meanwhile in Norman, the land thieves lead K-State 15-11 in top of ninth.

 

[Horn2Run]

leadoff batter....strike 3 swinging

HE GONE.

 

[FWHORN]

Land thieves win 15-11. Magic number is now at 2 for outright, win today means no worse than a share of the title.

Tennis

 

[Horn2Run]

full count on 2nd batter...fly out to lf

 

[Horn2Run]

2 out...starts out 0-2....HE GONE

swinging.

 

[FWHORN]

Interesting situation here. Chance is your closer but he has already worked 4 1/3 innings this weekend. Do we see him in the ninth or do we stick with Thomas. Stafford hasnt seen any action this weekend and might also be available should Chance come in and run into trouble.

 

[Horn2Run]

b8...rupp leads off

1-1 after 2 pitches...swing n miss, 1-2....swing/miss K

 

[orangecat]

somebody other than Chance, I hope.

 

[Horn2Run]

FW,

I'd rather see Chance rest....I'm more interested in him dominating in June...I'm really hoping this staff isn't peaking...but I'm not complaining about em either.

i;d like to see us close this out w/ Chance of the mound

 

[Horn2Run]

Moldy smoles one THRU Muncy at 1b..Muncy checking his-self for additional holes....

Keyes flies to rf

i tell you what. i love our radio announcers but im sick of hearing about "insurance runs"
just fyi for those not listening on the radio...we havent scored less then 9 runs in a sunday game or lost a sunday game in big 12 play.
i think we have a pretty decent team here.

 

[Horn2Run]

base hit to rf, runners at corners 2 out

 

[Horn2Run]

end of inning....no runs....can't wait to see who takes the mound here (commercial running)

 

[FWHORN]

With Stafford pinch running he becomes unavailable. Gotta think this is Stayton's game to finish.

I wouldnt mind an insurance run here. This has not been the typical Sunday offensive explosion for the Horns.

 

[eugene11]

and i think i heard Craig say that Nebraska has gone 1-2 in every big 12 series this year

top of 9, 4-1 Texas, Stayton pitching, ruffin and hobey warming up in the bullpin

 

[Horn2Run]

Thomas pitching...

2-0 to begin....2-1.....strike 2 at knees...ground out to Etier.

 

[GemStateJim]

Get us the sweep, Stayton.

 

[Horn2Run]

towey up....etier again, 2 out.

 

[Horn2Run]

BU down to final strike, count at 2-2.....
