UNC- ASU

[cochamps]

looks like neither team going with their ace.

 

[cochamps]

1 out double for the Sun Devils.

 

[scharnell]

I think Texas follows their lead...

 

[cochamps]

runner stranded. Unc coming to bat.

 

[cochamps]

Well, I have to think so especially now.

 

[cochamps]

ASU gives up a couple of hits, but no damage.

 

[HornLivin]

ASU on the board first. Who would you guys rather face between these two teams?

 

[bassale47]

Alex White is technically UNC's ace. He doesn't have the best ERA on the staff, but Chance Ruffin doesn't have the best ERA on our staff either. White is their Friday night starter and the pitcher that opposing hitters have struggled against the most in terms of batting average, strikeouts, etc.

Regardless, win or lose today, Texas is going to face a stiff challenge on Tuesday because both of these teams are going to have a great pitcher ready to go.

ASU scares me more. But they're both pretty close. I'm just hoping that whoever we play has an off-day Tue.

 

[htownlonghorn16]

I think we want to face the least potent hitting club, because either way we are going to face a very solid pitcher

Have not looked at the stats but it seems like ASU has the less dangerous of the two, but they still get on,

I think that I would prefer to not face Leake on Tuesday, so I'm hoping NC wins.

 

[Touchdown_Texas]

UNC ties it up

 

[salonghorn-70]

Great pitching on both sides.

 

[salonghorn-70]

Horns are at the stadium!!! Great (although brief) shot of the Horns arriving.

 

[Touchdown_Texas]

i wouldn't mind if this game went 24 innings. headed to the bottom of the 9th still tied 1-1.

 

[Chest Rockwell]

As much as I'm chomping at the bit to watch us dismantle USM, I'd be cool with a 25-inning marathon that chews up both of these staffs.

 

[HornLivin]

Wow, outstanding pitching for ASU today. Strikes out the side in the 9th including the best hitter in the country...

 

[salonghorn-70]

Yeah, I agree. Wouldn't mind at all if they chewed up some pitching today.

 

[HappyGilmore]

Strike zone has been a mile wide all day. Fairly consistent all day, but wide nonetheless. If you bring it, you've got to swing it.

 

[HornLivin]

Wow, costly costly error dropping a fly ball in the outfield. Then ASU pulls ahead. Could be the difference.

 

[HornLivin]

3-run homer. ASU blows it open in the 10th, now 5-1!!

 

[swraith]

ASU just blew this game wide open.

 

[salonghorn-70]

NC seems snake-bit in the CWS.

 

[Horn69]

Will our game be delayed...i.e., is there a certain amount of pre-game that each team gets that would mean the game will be pushed back?

Hook'em!!!
