Horns looking to win the Austin Regional. Taylor Jungmann on mound for Horns. Rice will throw Boogie Anagnostou.
Horns are visiting team tonight. We have storms down here and choppy video and audio so someone else will need to do the batter by batter updates. Gem I am looking at you
Video really bad down here, somehow first two batters are out and Shepherd is at plate with 2-0 count. and on 2-1 count Shepherd flies out to right. 3 up 3 down for Horns in top first. 0-0
B1 lead off hitter, Mozingo(sp)? groundout to lusson, 6-3. Haig(sp?) K swinging for Taylor. Rapchen(sp) Check swing K for Taylor. 2 K's in the inning. Going to the Top of the 2nd, 0-0. And sorry about the names if I'm butchering them, dont have a list and only going by what I can make out from Craig.

T2 for Horns, 4-5-6 batters for Texas, Moldy leading off. Moldy out in front of the pitch and hits it off the front of the bat for a soft grounder to pitcher, 1-3. 1 down. Keyes up next. Come on Kevin! As I'm typing, Kevin hits it straight up to catcher who catches it behind the plate, 2 down. damnit. Rupp with a liner past 2nd baseman into RF, 1 on 2 down for Lusson. Lusson to a 3-0 count..., goes to 3-1 before ball 4 and Lusson walks. Rupp on 2nd and Lusson on 1st for Connor Rowe. Rowe with a 2-0 count and Wayne out quickly to the mound. Next pitch Rowe lines out to 2nd. Might have been a little high, if anything, should've sat on it and see what he could do with the count. Horns leave 2 on off 1 hit and a walk, going to the B2 0-0.
Graham out to see Boogie. Would be nice to chase him early. Time for a clutch hit here Connor come on son.
Wayne Graham strolls out to the mound and miraculously makes it back to the dugout without breaking his hip. This guy makes Marv Levy look young. Rowe lines out to 2nd - to the bottom of the 2nd. 0-0
Here are the starting lineups--I had these ready to go before the first pitch but then my Internet went and took a crap on me.#2 The University of Texas Longhorns (48-11)Head coach: Augie Garrido Lineup: 1. Cohl Walla, lf 2. Brandon Loy, ss 3. Tant Shepherd, 1b 4. Russell Moldenhauer, dh 5. Kevin Keyes, rf 6. Cameron Rupp, c 7. Kevin Lusson, 3b 8. Connor Rowe, cf 9. Jordan Etier, 2b Taylor Jungman, p (6-3) Rice University Owls (40-22) Head coach: Wayne Graham Lineup: 1. Chad Mozingo, rf 2. Rick Hague, ss 3. Jeremy Rathjen, cf 4. Anthony Rendon, 3b 5. Diego Seastrunk, dh 6. Michael Ratterree, 2b 7. Michael Fuda, lf 8. Craig Manuel, c 9. Jimmy Comerota, 1b Boogie Anagnostou, p (3-4) Incidentally, I will not be providing updates tonight. Thanks for picking up my slack, Horn-N-LA. Also, if we get beat by a guy named Boogie, I'm going to be verklempt.
B2 Rice also has 4-5-6 hitters up. Taylor with only 12 pitches in 1st. If anyone cares, it's 4-3 UCI over the purple cajuns in the B8. Leadoff hitter Rendon with a liner to lf, 1 on for the Owls. Great job Horns, Etier starts it for the 4-5-3 DP! Way to go Horns! 2 down. BIG K swinging, 3rd out, 3rd K for Taylor! Going to the Top3 0-0. Let's go Horns, we've been through the lineup nearly, so let's boogie.
Best memory of Wayne is him hitting the deck in 2002 CWS to avoid a throw that caught the Rice runner at the plate who constituted the tying run, the old guy showed some moves in getting out of the way. He is Texas ex so hard not to cheer for him when he isnt coaching against Texas.
Top3 for the Horns. No prob picking up the slack Gem. Just hope I can be as successful as you were yesterday. Etier leading off for the Horns. Etier fisted and grounds out to SS, 1 down. Walla goes down looking. 2 down. ugly start for Cohl so far. Groundout to 3rd ends the inning. 3 up 3 down for the Horns. Going B3 I don't think we need 2 doing updates, so Chest if you want it, you can have it.
