Thanks Joey

I was in the stadium when they threw fruit, vegetables, and a beer bottle at us after we beat them. 

Hillbillies!

You were lucky it was not rocks has happened.

B4

Horns put together one of the best defensive frames I've seen in quite a while.  They allow on run, but spectacular plays by Faltine, Antico and Stevens limit the damage. 

Horns up 6-3 thru 4 complete

 

[joeywa]

T5

Horns plate 2 without a hit.  USF pitching is awful.

Horns up 8-3 headed B5

Stupid question. I thought the pitcher had to get his signals from the catcher and not the dugout? I noticed it last night that S FL was doing that and they're doing tonight too.

 

[joeywa]

B5 nothing doing for USF

Horns up 8-3 thru 5

No rule that you have to take them from the C.  They can come from the dugout.

Horns load em up in T6, but can't push a run across

Horns up 8-3 headed B6

 

[joeywa]

Stevens gives up B2B doubles and allows one run.  He gets the 2nd out with a K, and Pierce calls on Quintanilla.

Cole gets an F7 to end it

Horns up 8-4 thru 6 complete

 

[joeywa]

Horns plate 3 in T7, Powell RBI single plates Antico and a Cam Williams 2-run jack makes the lead 11-4, headed B7

Everybody Stretch!

 

[joeywa]

B7 and T8 are relatively quiet with nothing doing for either team

Headed B8, Horns up 11-4

 

[joeywa]

Quintanilla issues a leadoff walk; gets an F9 and a 6-4-3 DP to face the minimum

Horns up 11-4 thru 8 complete
