I like that French is working the strike zone but when he gets ahead in the count he needs to expand the zone some.

Blue has already shown that he's going to be very "giving" to pitchers today, may as well take advantage of it.

 

[Matt Cotcher]

That's a high school catcher making that diving grab at 1b.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Patience, USD's pitcher can't locate the zone at all.

Don't know about brunch but it's bout to be happy hour.

 

[Matt Cotcher]

Longhorns are sticking with their aggressive approach and taking hacks. They're also bailing Hill out - he's fighting it quite a bit. Looks like he's aiming instead of throwing.

In that case, pour some bourbon in my coffee when you bring out eggs, bacon & a short stack.

Or biscuits 'n gravy. I'm easy to please.

I know it's cold out there, but the discussion makes it sound like it's sub-zero.  39 degrees and damp is a normal day during March for baseball in the PacNW.  Ha!

3-1 on the flip from Cantu

French sits them down 1-2-3

Going B4; Texas trails USD 2-1

 

[joeywa]

Yep.  He was all twisted up. 

 

[Matt Cotcher]

Nice & quick work from French in T4th. Let's see if the bottom half of the order is more patient their 2nd time up.

 

[utisdabomb12]

I'm honestly not sure if this USD pitcher can throw 3 strikes in an at bat. Patience, Marlow swung at ball 4.
