Texas vs. Baylor. Weekend baseball series

[david ficken]

Texas leads 4-0. Starting the top of the 5th.

Need to sweep this weekend.

Texas should be up more, but communication or bad base running cost them in the top of the 4th.

BTW, TCU was losing in the 8th 9-4 to UNC Willington I think that who Craig Way said they were playing

 

[david ficken]

Texas scores 2 runs in the 5th leading 5-0.

Texas again should have scored more runs.

Gordon pitching well tonight.

Ask on other thread, why Galvan at DH?

Ask on other thread, why Galvan at DH?

Asking me? I believe either Galvan or Florris (spelling ??) have been the DH in most of the games lately.

 

[david ficken]

Thru 6 complete it's 5-0.

Gordon has a shutout thru 6 innings.

 

[david ficken]

8 complete 6-3 Texas.

Texas gives up a 2 run homurun and a solo homerun in the bottom of the 8th.

 

[Eastexhorn]

Well Pierce must of had afeeling about Galvan. 2 hits not bad for a .190 hitter

 

[david ficken]

After giving up  in the bottom of the 8th. Texas has added 5 runs in the top of the 9th. Still at bat leading 11-3.

Fixed it for you. haha

 

[BWilk55]

Thru 6 complete it's 5-0.

Gordon has a shutout thru 6 innings.

Gordon has been really solid as the Friday night arm so far this year. Down to a 1.91 ERA after tonight's performance. He isn't overwhelming on the mound like some previous friday night guys we have had but gets the job done.

Need to sweep this weekend.

A sweep would be great and probably a series you need to sweep to win the conference. Don't want to drop any games to a bottom of the league team, even if on the road.

I'd feel pretty neutral with a 2-1 series win and definitely disappointed with anything worse.

 

[david ficken]

Texas can't close the game out easily as Baylor has scored 6 runs in the bottom of the 9th. 

Now leading 11-9. 

 

[david ficken]

Texas wins 11-9. But damn some of the relievers made the game uncomfortable. 

 

[RunRickyRun]

Why not just let shaw finish it out?

 

[BWilk55]

Texas can't close the game out easily as Baylor has scored 6 runs in the bottom of the 9th. 

Now leading 11-9. 

Whew, that got a little dicey. Texas tried to close out the 9th with some low leverage arms (Walbridge 8 IP with a 5.63 ERA and Grubbs 5.2 IP with a 6.35 ERA). By the end of the inning, Zane Morehouse had to start warming up but fortunately Grubbs was able to get the final out.

Does anyone else look with fondness on games we won 2-1, 3-1, and 2-0, in the past?

Those were nailbiters.
 

 

[david ficken]

Game  has started.

Texas sends  to the plate scoring 4 runs in the 1st.  The Baylor starter has thrown close to  pitches in the 1st.

 

[david ficken]

This game 2 is not starting out as pitching duel. Both teams had/have sent at least 8 guys and Baylor has batted around and now leads 5-4.

Hurley goes only 2/3 of the 1st before being pulled for Tole.

The umps are definitely making both teams and coaches mad at them.

 

[david ficken]

After a 43 minute 1st inning it's finally on to the 2nd. 5-4 Baylor.
