Texas vs Minnesota Video Link

[NBHorn7]

Once more this should work for the game.



The Link


If not I think I have another alternative.

Maybe we are an inside kind of baseball team, but since the temperature is supposed to be around freezing at game time
I think the alternative was not a good one.

Minnesota is another ok, but certainly not great team.


The Link

 

[NBHorn7]

OU started conference play today by beating TCU 3-2 in the bottom of the 12th on a passed ball on a very cold day in Norman.

OSU shuts out Baylor 5-0 in equally cold Stillwater.

Also Boardman is now scheduled to pitch tonight instead of Hollingsworth. I guess they didn't like his performance against Houston last Tuesday.


Some reports are now saying French has tendinitis.
Hoping he can start next weekend.

The pitcher tonight for the Gophers Windle is a possible first round draft pick so it could very well be another struggle with the bats, but what else is new.

Link is up and working and as always if FW is out there feel free to start the game thread.

 

[ElginHotSausage]

Dare we watch?

 

[NBHorn7]

It's like a car wreck you may not want to look, but you know you are going to.

 

[NBHorn7]

I may need a translator for this announcer. Does anybody speak
Minnesotan?


There are two Minnesota hockey games tonight so we may have as many fans there as they do.

 

[NBHorn7]

Win or lose this is going to be a long game with this guy announcing.

I guess we might as well start a game thread here.

 

[ElginHotSausage]

i guess there is only one camera.

 

[NBHorn7]

Johnson with the lead off K swinging for out one.

Carter with the comebacker for out two.

Weis K's swinging to end the inning.

Yah, this looks familiar, yah.

Minnesota coming to bat.

This announcer is totally clueless saying Peters was suppose to pitch but is injured.

One camera in a huge ball park yah, this is good.

 

[ElginHotSausage]

announcer did slightly better with "Hinojosa" than the stanford clown.

 

[NBHorn7]

This guy could pronounce a 20 letter name with no vowels flawlessly but Hinojosa, no way.

 

[NBHorn7]

Was that guy that grounded out named Schlang.
Dear god that's as good as that guy we played once named Hore.

 

[NBHorn7]

Anyway back to the game Boardman walk a guy to put two on with two outs.

A two out double to right center scores both runners and Minnesota with the quick 2-0 massive lead.

 

[NBHorn7]

Boardman out of the inning with a swinging K, but with the two runs scored we may have lost already.

Minnesota leads 2-0 after one inning and a commercial about Coon Rapids.

 

[SectionThree]

If the ball goes out of the infield the camera does not follow it.
Radio gives better coverage.

 

[NBHorn7]

Payton K's also swinging for out one.

Hinosa according to the announcer is up and K's swinging as Minnesota's women's hockey team leads 2-1 in an update rarely associated with Texas baseball.

This guy is actually getting worse as he goes doesn't know the count half the time.

Montalbano singles for a runner breaking the K parade.

Moynihan grounds out 4-6 to end the inning.

I bet they got 5 cameras and super slow motion replays at the women'ts hockey game alone.

 

[NBHorn7]

Boardman gets a fly to right for the first out.

Next batter with a ground ball to Weis who knocks it down, but it's an infield single.

A single scores both runs to make it 5-0.

Skip Reynolds to the mound to pull Boardman according to the announcer. This is what baseball hell must be like.

Urban in to pitch now.

Now this guy is making fun of Dripping Springs after doing a commercial for Coon Rapids now.

 

[NBHorn7]

Urban greeted by a single.

Then he loads the bases with a walk.

Meanwhile I think the Gopher jacks team is playing tonight as it seems every other sport they play is.

A shallow fly ball to right ends the inning.

They lead still 5-0.

 

[NBHorn7]

Still Minnesota 5-0 to the bottom of four.

 

[ElginHotSausage]

this guy is covering all the other Gopher sports tonight better than the baseball game he's watching.

 

[NBHorn7]

Lead off man hits a bullet back to the mound but Urban fields it for out one.

Good ole Schlangen is left "hanging" as he flies out to Payton for out two.

Single to right stops Urban's out streak at six.

Urban with a K swinging to end the inning as we now are learning about the Gopher gymnastic and golf teams.
This is the Minnesota version of Craig Way without the knowledge, but every bit as brutal with the minutia.

Gophers 5-0 to the fifth.

 

[NBHorn7]

Moynihan lines to left for the first out.

Marlow with about our 50th K tonight swinging for out two.

Hall with yet another surprising K this time looking.

Minnesota leads 5-0.

Hey Frank it's the bottom of the fifth and we are losing to Minnesota in Minnesota did you ever think that would happen?
Please pass that bottle Frank this is beyond brutal.

 

[NBHorn7]

Urban still pitching and a deep fly ball that disappoints our announcer guy is out one.

Opposite field single puts a runner on first.

Urban falls behind the next hitter 2-0 and this time Skip Johnson comes out to the hill. Urban remains.

Hit and run attempt but the Horns still get a 4-6-3 dp to end the inning.

To the sixth Minnesota leads 5-0 as a funeral home commercial is very nice touch in the background.

 

[NBHorn7]

[NBHorn7]

Duke gets a 4U FC for the second out as the batter beats the dp
throw attempt.

Schlangen my man is up and tries to "poke" a single to right but Payton comes in and makes the catch.

If Elgin is still sort of paying attention I know he appreciated the Lonesome Dove reference.

To the top of the 7th 5-0 Minnesota. Somebody please give this guy the score to whatever Minnesota thing he is talking about so he will shut up.

 

[NBHorn7]

Payton flies out to right for out one.

Comebacker for out two.

Montalbano sets a career record for the Gopher pitcher with K number nine.

To the stretch trailing 5-0.

 

[ElginHotSausage]

[NBHorn7]

FW wherever you are you owe me one for having to do this monstrosity alone with this announcer to boot.

Lead off man with a single

Ground ball to Weis is a 5-4-3 dp, thankfully to shorten this thing as much as possible.

A single up the middle is hit 10 for Minnesota.

A steal attempt and Motalbano guns him out to end the inning.
