Top of the 3rd. Long fly ball to LF. It's carrying.............................................. Caught by Porter Brown! 1 down.
Would be nice if Grubbs would have a quick inning here in the 4th. TCU pitcher with only 37 pitches after 3 with 5 k's.
After 4 innings of pitching, Grubbs: 5 strikouts 0 walks only 1 run surrendered. Grubbs is doing his job. Now let's get him some run support.
Good example this inning why Kennedy shouldn't be in the 2 hole. He is more likely to kill the top of the lineup. Thomas would likely be on 3rd on Powell's hit. No outs with a chance for Flores, Shoos or Belyeu to knock in runs. Now its completely dead.
and first thing Grubss does is I'll see your high pitch inning and raise you a lead off full count walk.
and to continue with the Kennedy example and why he shouldn't be there, Flores singles up the middle to start the 5th. All 3 of the top guys in the lineup in average safely reached base but Kennedy being thrown up there where he shouldn't causes inefficiencies in the offense. We could of had a big inning in the 4th. Seem to be doing good here in the 5th, after Flores singeld, Shoos sac bunted. Belyeu up to bat now with 1 out.
