We Won the TCU Series!!!

[aUTfan]

Shaw can't throw strikes......2 walks.

Pull his ***. Tired of these guys not throwing strikes.

 

[Chop]

Shaw. Walked two.

 

[aUTfan]

Pierce going to Tumis after Shaw gets no outs and walks 2.

 

[txhorn_et]

Bad News Bears

 

[aUTfan]

batter squares around to bunt with 2 runners on which is exactly what I would do. Not a great bunt but Tumis hesitates, looks at 3rd and bobbles the ball.....all runners safe. No outs.

 

[aUTfan]

Bases loaded if anyone is keeping up with this.

 

[txhorn_et]

This is hard to watch.

 

[aUTfan]

Deep fly ball will score a run and then a bad throw by Gas scores another.

 

[Chop]

Shaw screwed us by walking 2 batters.

 

[Chop]

I hate to see the good performance by Grubbs go to waste.

 

[aUTfan]

WP moves runner over to 3rd.

 

[Chop]

That's right announcer. It all started with those BACK-TO-BACK WALKS.

 

[aUTfan]

Ground ball to Thomas, he hesitates or can't get a grip on the ball and ends up being a bang-bang play at home to cut off a run. under review.

 

[aUTfan]

Call was out, looks like it should stand. If so, will be 1 runner aboard with 2 outs.

 

[aUTfan]

I don't see us overcoming a 5 run deficit against their staff.

 

[Chop]

Allright.........

Time for a 9th Inning rally.

 

[aUTfan]

Line drive out to Kennedy to end the inning. 3 outs left.

Abeldt with a 1.64 ERA coming in to close the door.

 

[Chop]

Thomas strikes out.

 

[Chop]

DK flies out.

It's down to Powell with one out left.

 

[Chop]

Powell

infield single

 

[aUTfan]

Thomas k's, Kennedy flies out and powell singles. Flores up with 2 outs, 1 runner on.

 

[Chop]

Game

5-0 Loss

 

[aUTfan]

And that's the way it ends. TCU takes the game 5-0. We drop another Friday game but not because of our starting pitching.

Kudo's to:

Grubbs - he held us in the game.
Powell had two hits

Offense and Shaw let us down tonight. Great pitching by TCU tonight though.

 

[Chop]

If Ace can repeat the job Grubbs did tonight, we’ll get a win tomorrow.

 

[Chop]

I think Lummus is the guy we bring in instead of Shaw when Dre started to fade.

Shaw’s numbers are just horrendous this year. Not sure what happened to him. Could be lingering injury.

Lummus’ numbers are very respectable. He needs more innings.

 

[Chop]

And yeah, get Oliver Service more at bats. Maybe he plays 4 innings at the end of each game at LF or CF.

 

[WorsterMan]

 

[Phil Elliott]

I vote we change the rotation of jerseys. Next Friday night start off with the orange jerseys, change our luck.

 

[WorsterMan]

Pierce!?

 

[WorsterMan]

Chop, who pitches Sat. ? Ace?
