Lineups posted in a little bit.  As usual, I'll be posting updates on Twitter, @joeywa_44, and inning recaps here.  Not sure if Baizer is done binge-watching Flip&Flop or not, but if he's finished, I'm sure he'll be part of the fun.   

He did a great job last night, hoping after a cold shower and a good night's sleep, his stamina will lead him to a complete game tonight.

Lineup for Texas

Cantu in the 8 hole is interesting. Usually that's a good fastball spot in the order. Side note, I have thrown bp as a sophomore is high school to the Islander head coach.

Cantu in the 8 hole is interesting

Maybe Pierce is giving him a chance to find his groove in a game vs. the #288 of 298 RPI team that is 2-10.  Don't know.  Perhaps a short leash?  McCann has shown he can handle things behind the dish and hit.  Or...........perhaps McCann is going to start on Friday vs UCLA and Pierce wants him to be fresh.  Played Sat game 2 and last night, so getting a night off.  

It's an interesting story line, no doubt.

Baseball is like chasin' women; sometimes you just need a slump buster.  (With sincerest apologies to Java and the other ladies here.)
