Texas v. Oklahoma State April 29-May 1, 2022

[WorsterMan]

Damn! 8 straight runs in and the inning is not over.

 

[Chop]

Grand Slam

 

[Chop]

OSU 8-7 on a GRAND SLAM

 

[Chop]

Enter Southard
After we surrender 8 runs in the 7th
After Gordon pitched 6 innings w no runs

 

[FWHORN]

This half inning is basically Texas’ season in a nutshell, so frustrating.

 

[Chop]

This is plum ridiculous.

Better hope our bats catch fire again—which may very well happen.

 

[Chop]

Southard walks his first batter.

 

[SabreHorn]

Anybody besides me old enough to remember when DKR put an ad in The Daily Texan looking for a punter?

Pierce needs to put one in tomorrow's Texan - Looking for pitchers. "If you pitched at any level after your ninth birthday, please apply at Disch Falk for uniform fitting before Thursday morning"

 

[WorsterMan]

Hello Bullpen!

We got anyone in there that can throw strikes TODAY!!!

 

[Chop]

The crowd is audibly turning against Southard.

 

[Chop]

Southard in the dirt.

 

[Chop]

Southard walked his second batter

7 walks this inning!!! Plus some bean balls.

 

[WorsterMan]

Pierce may run out of bullpen before the game is over.

 

[Chop]

And NOW, AFTER ALL THAT, we go to Harrison…

 

[George Bailey]

LHN just showed some dude behind home saying and motioning 'come on', I really hope he wasn't doing that to the ump.

 

[old65horn]

That’s probably it for Gordon. What an outing. 6 scoreless innings. 11 strikeouts.

Our most consistent, reliable starter.

 

[Chop]

And NOW, AFTER ALL THAT, we go to Harrison…

And Harrison strikes out his first batter

 

[Phil Elliott]

OK coaching geniuses who think we should fire Pierce, what coaching magic would you like to apply to fix this? If you are a college pitcher and you cannot find the strike zone, I don't think a coach, any coach, is going to be able to help you. Four guys outta the bullpen, and nobody can throw a strike that doesn't add to the batter's slugging percentage. This is on the pitchers, not the coaching.

If you are a college pitcher and you cannot find the strike zone, I don't think a coach, any coach, is going to be able to help you. Four guys outta the bullpen, and nobody can throw a trike that doesn't add to the batter's slugging percentage. This is on the pitchers, not the coaching.

Or the pitching coach

[Chop]

Single up the gut 10-7 them

 

[Chop]

10 run inning

 

[Horn6721]

WTH!! What happened?
It wasn't just the pitchers

 

[WorsterMan]

Mercifuly, the top of 7th inning has ended

Horns give up what is probably a record 10 runs in that inning...

 

[Chop]

Announcers are right. It was the 7 walks (and bean balls) that killed us there. With zero or just one walk, they might have scored two runs that inning.

 

[Chop]

Need 3 to tie.

 

[Chop]

They walked Silas.

 

[Chop]

They walked Skylar.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

I tuned in for about 3 minutes when we where up 7-4 to see how we were doing. Told my wife lead wasn’t big and we would blow another one. Came here to check if I was wrong, but unfortunately this team stayed true to itself.

 

[Phil Elliott]

It wasn't just the pitchers

It was *totally* just the pitchers.
