Horns take on aggy at 1:00 p.m. today in losers bracket game. Its win or go home with Lucas Gordon on mound for Texas. Texas Baseball at the College World Series
They’re trotting out Micah Dallas (transferred from Tech) to the mound to start. For the season: 5.40 ERA 83 Strikeouts 20 Walks A pedestrian ERA, but a good strikeouts to walks ratio—meaning, he’s going to make us earn it by hitting him. He’s unlikely to surrender many free passes. Absent an uncharacteristically poor outing, Gordon and our D will keep them in check. So it’s likely all up to our bats. Heat em up boys!
Compare with Lucas Gordon: 2.68 ERA 76 Strikeouts 25 Walks We have a statistical mismatch. We just have to play our game, heat up those bats, and we win.
The Bats UT 0.316 Batting Avg 128 Homeruns 0.555 Slugging % aTm 0.291 Batting Avg 83 Homeruns 0.473 Slugging % Again, a statistical mismatch in our favor. We’ve just got to play our game, heat up our bats, and we win.
Something tells me our boys will be up for this game. With reasonable pitching we’ll mudhole these chumps.
The Eyes - wish I was floating on the river with y'all! Hodo double scores Campbell from 2nd!!! 2-0 Horns baby!
