Couple of good balls squared up in B2 form Reynolds and Boswell, but didn't amount to anything other than long fly outs. 

 

[Will Baizer]

Top 3rd (1-2 Sooners):

On the mound is Cooper Morgan at 37 pitches.

1st Sooner up is CF Ben Hollas

Pop up to LF. David Hamilton grabs it.

1 out.

2nd Sooner up is 3B Jack Flansburg

Full count and a pop up to left side.

A nifty flash of leather by David Hamilton to retire Jack.

2 outs.

6-3 ground out.

3 up. 3 down.

Only 13 pitches thrown.

Will-I'm taking the wife and kids to Oskar Blues brewery here shortly. Shall I Uber a Ten-Fidy Imperial Stout or Dream IPA to you? Hopefully they will have the game on.

He hits it into the corner.

Another double for Travis Jones. That's #10.

OU RHP Jake Irvin steps off the mound. Trainer is out there to meet him. He's still in the game, but there is movement in the bull pen.

Travis Jones tries to steal 3rd. And he's called out... Not a good call.

Well... The Longhorns tie it up at 2 off a HR by Kody Clemens.

Irvin at 54 pitches now.

 

[Bear19]

Well that's one place where they ain't

[Will Baizer]

He was safe. Even the OU baseball SID called him safe.

 

[Bear19]

Bad call at third.

 

[drgilbert]

Damn, replay shows he was safe.

 

[joeywa]

We go hosed on that call.  He was safe.
