Damn. Horns may still pull this thing out... but admit I got far too cocky & relaxed with a 5-2 lead....
The baseball gods let you off easy and only gave you a warning. Don’t question their existence again for the love of Texas baseball!!!
Pierce shouldn’t have sent Antico to steal 3rd on a top catcher - cost us 1 run He lets Witt walk 3 batters ? Why? Cost another run
Four walks late in a tight game are tough to overcome. But not impossible. Pierce’s decision to stay with the freshman after he walked the bases loaded baffles me. pressure now goes on our hitters.
Enter Parker Stinnett for MSU 1.56 ERA (tv shows a 1.45 ERA, so my online scouting report is probably dated) “Wicked slider”. Nasty put out stuff. Aggressively goes after the hitters. A Strike out pitcher. JC transfer. On edit: let’s add “likes to throw it in the dirt…”
I would've let Antico try to steal 2nd and then bunt him to 3rd. Ohh well. Just need a clutch hit. :/
