I'll change the title if Shortstack calls me and someone gets the tix. Got two in Section #3 (right on top of the Horns). Sorry for the late notice but her texts this morning didn't get any bites. Hope someone gets 'em. Now, on to the game thread discussion.
What time is the 1 PM first pitch? Weather.com's saying 81 degrees, sunny and wind NNW @ 9. Game tracker and ITV feeds are awfully quiet. Beat the HELL outta Okie State! m/
A single, steal, and a double to open the top of the first (surrounding a strike out). Runners on 2nd and 3rd, 1 out for Workman.
OSU gets runners to 2nd and 3rd with one out, but Workman gets a strikeout and a groundout 1-3 to end the top of the first. Going to the bottom of one. I can't get texassports.tv to work, but listening on the radio.
Pokes had runners at 2nd and 3rd with one out in T1. Brandon saw his life flashing before his eyes if he went back to the dugout having given up a run and having to look Cole and Taylor in the eyes... So... He just K'd the 2nd out and then induced a slow roller to himself and threw out the 3rd out at 1st. Child's play.
Half *** work by Camo. 'Course, he can't help it if the Horns can't get two on the bags and I guess he was a little testy about it as he ONLY put the ball off the wall in left scoring Tant. Needed 3, only gave us 1. Hopefully, he'll pick it up with 8 to go.
Workman K's the first two batters swinging, gives up a 2 out single, then gets the third guy to pop up to short. To the bottom of 2, 1-0 Texas.
4 strikeouts for Workman over the first two innings, with 3 guys left on base. He's thrown a lot of pitches for just two innings - will probably come into play later in the game.
BW sprinkled a little hit in between 2 (possibly 3 as I didn't catch the 3rd out) Ks to get us to B2 where Little Lusson, who is not having a good average against lefties decides to sneak one by the 3rd baseman who was playing in left field apparently as he easily makes 1st on a bunt down 3rd base line. He's waiting to score at 2nd as sac bunt moves him.
Kevin is 3 of 5 on the paths stealing this season so watch out pokes as we showed we like to steal on the your catcher.
sooners lead aggy 4-0 in the 5th I think. Last I heard wildkittens were down a run 2-1 to mizzou @mizzou in G1 of the DH. Dang, Little Lusson swipes 3rd like a cat burglar. Catcher doesn't even try.
Koala patiently works that at bat according to the VOTL and smokes a double and Little Lusson sidles on in for the 2-0 lead.
Yaaaaawwwwnnnn. Etier easily gets the first lazy grounder and then Rowe catches a lazy pop fly. SWING and a miss as your #3 starter gets another K. Mizzou up 4-1 on wildkittens in case you're interested. Tceh beat Kansas. All other B12 Teams have at least 7 defeats so it looks like it might be down to Texas and KSt.
Smoked to dead centre and Tant cruises to 3rd as the Centre Fielder crashed into the wall and is down. (respectful, injury hook 'em)
Harvard is up and trying to collect himself (VOTL) and putting his cap back on and his glasses. Running a little bit and getting his glove back and looks like he might stay in the game. Tough kiddo. Here we go with a lead-off triple waiting for his turn to score.
Tant's got a 10-game hitting streak after that LO3. Rupp back at the plate to try and make up for that 1st inning debacle. He does get the sac for his 11th of the weekend. Dang, these Longhorns are pretty salty.
Single for Keyes with one out. Gets moved to 2nd with 2 outs and THEN... deja vu all over again for the poor poke catcher as Kevin attemps a steal of 3rd on a 3-2 pitch to Lusson who takes for B4. Catcher overthrows 3rd and Kevin trots on home for the 4th run for Texas. Hook 'em all.
Activity in the pen for OSU and it appears it's their RFer (Chambers 4-2 fish) who is ANOTHER lefty...
5-0 Tceh over KU. Neb & BU tied. chokelahoma over aggy 4-0. T7 mizzou 4-1 over KSt. Rowe Ks to end the 3rd.

Walla's pretty good for a freshman. He gets turned around but the wind holds it enough for him to turn back into it and get out #1. He gets the 2nd one and then Kevin ends the inning from 3rd. Workman is holding serve on Cole and Taylor. Keep it up, kiddo.
