A high deep ball to right for Hamilton hangs forever. Too bad it comes down in bounds. 1 down in bot 6th.

End of the 6th. Kody Clemens ties the game at 2 with a dinger after Rice scored 2 in the top of the 6th. Tied at 2 in the 7th.

Morgan Cooper ends the night with 87 pitches (58 strikes), 6 Ks, 2 BBs, 17 first pitch strikes, 3 hits, 2 runs, and a quality start.

Strike 3 swinging. Nolan Kingham with 2 Ks in the top of the 7th. Still tied at 2. Kravitz comes in for Rice. Myers is at 3rd.

 

[Will Baizer]

Boswell hits a stinger to first. He's out by Reynolds goes to 2nd after the 1st baseman bobbles the ball.

 

[Oldmanastro]

Quick question, why are the dirt colors different around the bases vs the mound?

 

[Will Baizer]

Nolan Kingham get some help with a 6-3 out to start the 8th. Hamilton is getting a work out tonight.

 

[Will Baizer]

Ground ball stung at the Kingham. He throws it to 1st and end the inning only having tossed 7 pitches. Still tied at 2 going into B8th.

Quick question, why are the dirt colors different around the bases vs the mound?

The only actual dirt is the mound. The "dirt" around the bases is just turf.

 

[Oldmanastro]

That's what I was thinking. Can't feel good sliding on the skin.

Kingham looks good. Confident, almost cocky. I like it.

 

[Will Baizer]

Kody Clemens on fire. Single knocked up the middle. Kody on 1st. 2 outs. B8th.

 

[Will Baizer]

Patrick Mathis is rocking the "Y'all gon' make me lose my mind" walk up song.

 

[Will Baizer]

Kody Clemens replaced by a pinch runner, Tyler Rand.

E4 and now Texas has a man on 1st and 2nd. Ryan Reynolds up to bat

 

[Will Baizer]

A pop up ends the inning. Texas strands two more. Texas has stranded 5 runners (Rice has 4). Still tied at 2 going into the 9th.

 

[Will Baizer]

Rice gets a ball just under David Hamilton's glove. No outs, man on 1st, T9th. Passed ball and a runner on 2nd

 

[Will Baizer]

sac bunt gets the man to 3rd with 1 out. Uh oh.

 

[Will Baizer]

They're changing out the home plate ump. Ump is having trouble walking off the field... This looks bad.

 

[Oldmanastro]

LHN must be few minutes behind. Showing man on 2nd, no outs, pitching change happening after umpire leaves game. No man in 3rd.

 

[Will Baizer]

DiCaprio is up to bat with a man on 2nd. He's got two RBIs this game so far. 0 outs.
