Tevas v. Sam Houston May 17, 2022

3 up
3 down
Again
For Zane Morehouse and the Texas D

 

Faltine tags second and then to Ivan for a double play!

 

This Contreras guy for Sam H is batting over 400 with a bunch of homeruns. He’s from El Paso—like Ivan.

“El Paso” must be Middle Castilian for “Home of the big sluggers.”

 

Cotreras with a double to the wall and an RBI.

7-1 us.

 

Sam’s wild reliever walked Hodo.

 

Sam’s third baseman robbed Ivan. Nice diving catch of a low line drive though.

 

Zane Morehouse
5 innings completed
1 run scored by the opposition
Around 67 pitches
Still going.

This is what we’ve been looking for as a 4th/mid-week starter.

 

Sam’s new reliever gets a place on the all-name team:

Gavi Coldiron

 

Major league play by Sam’s SS right there to make the grab and gun down Ardoin.

 

Another hit by Messinger. Dude’s batting over 360.

 

Start of the 6th.

Enter Southard with his 98 mph fastball.

 

Southard’s living dangerously— hanging some sliders/breaking stuff up high. But he’s getting the outs.

 

Ouch!!

Southard drilled a batter in the ribs with a fastball. And at his velocity—that’s gotta hurt!

 

Balk.

 

9 more outs to get. 7-1 UT.

 

K to end the inning. Southard set him up with fastballs (maybe a changeup in there too), then got him chasing a slider in the dirt.

Middle of the sixth.

Still 7-1 Horns.

 

Some big dude from New Jersey takes the mound for Sam H.

 

Campbell! Ground rule double!

 

Double Daly!!!!

RBI

8-1

 

Hodo hit on the forearm. Glazing shot. 2 on. No outs.

 

This New Jersey guy likes to live high in the zone. And guess who’s on deck…

 

Todd almost hit into the double play, but he beat the throw to first.

 

He’s not backing down to Ivan. He’s still going high in the zone.

 

E by shortstop on hard grounder.

9-1 us

 

E6 on the Ivan grounder to plate 1. Now 9-1 Horns with 1 out, bases now loaded after a HBP as I was typing this.

 

New Jersey man nicked Murph on the arm I think. Bases loaded for Silas.

 

Silas popped up

it’s up to Skyler.

 

Out on hard hit grounder up the gut. Good stop by Sam H. It looked like the fielder on second bobbled the pitch/throw, but it’s called out, and no official protest.

 

Woah! We should protest. TV review shows he never had control of the ball while on the bag.

 

And out comes Pierce to make his case.
