Horrible camera work in this broadcast.  They didn’t even follow the ground ball to the infielder on that DP.  Also not quickly shifting views to first base once the pitcher throws there to hold runners.  At least it’s on!

Or 676-2

And the camera work sucks balls.  Awful. 

 

[MikeV73]

Crazy looking at the graphic that showed the TCU lineup and their batting averages.  All of those guys hitting over .300 while all of our guys hover around .250.

Look at who they've played.

From McComas earlier today, " 95 of TCU’s 154 runs came in eight games against Eastern Michigan, Grand Canyon, Stephen F. Austin, and Abilene Christian."

 

[MikeV73]

Adding to my last post....we don’t seem to have any hitters.  While we have been known to earn some walks, we simply suck at hitting this season.  Dissapointing watching guys flail at pitches in the dirt and take half swings missing pitches.

So what I am gathering I could hit above the Mendoza line against those teams...nice

I like McCann, catching well this year, throwing out base runners.  He seemed like a forgotten guy last few years, glad he has earned an important role with the team.

B2

B2B Ks

High chopper up the middle for a single

KS ends it

3 Ks for Elder in the frame

Scoreless thru 2

 

[MikeV73]

Elder in command thus far.  Allowed a few singles without runners on base, then closed out the innings.

 

[joeywa]

T3

McCann KL

Ford Single up the middle

Hibbeler KS

Ellis KL ends it

Scoreless headed B3

 

[MikeV73]

A K looking is much more frustrating to watch then a K swinging.  Too many of both so far.

Tornado warning and golf ball hail in my part of Amarillo right now. Now back to the game.
