Need to get our bats going. Hopefully this is the game Easton Winfield breaks out. His bat could really help this lineup

Winfield did not have a good AB that one, and Flores is really struggling as well

Great rally

Thru 7 complete Texas leads 7-4. A really great rally to get the lead in the game. A little surprised by the Georgia pitchers not using their fastball as much as the starter did. But will take it.

Mendoza’s ball got caught in the wind and made it harder than it should have been. Still an error on the Georgia RF though.

Agreed. The wind played a large part in several of the balls hit to the outfield. But I'll take the gift that happened.
