Notes:

• I won't be doing PBP on Friday night, and the weekend is up in the air, (depending on HS baseball playoffs.)   If anyone wants to start a game thread and post updates, feel free.  The more the merrier.
• Augie will be going to Ellis Island in New York on Saturday to accept the 2016 Ellis Island Medal of Honor from the National Ethnic Coalition of Organizations.  Skip will be the Head Coach on Saturday.

WVU 11

UT 2 Final

That is all

11 to 2. Good grief.

They shoot horses don't they?

I have been thinking we needed to switch our starters. If we had thrown our Friday starter against OSU on Saturday, I think we would have won the Saturday game.

What do I know, though? Not much. Just a fan.

well, just checked and WVU leads 5-0 in the second inning. Not sure anything is going to help at this point.

 

[joeywa]

Now 5-2 after a SAC fly by Baker to bring in Jones and a solo dinger by Tres.  T3

I'll pop back in later. 

 

[joeywa]

5-3 T4 after an RBI double into LCF gap by Kody Clemens to bring in Gurwitz.

 

[joeywa]

T4 McKenzie with an RBI ground out brings in Kody

5-4 WVU

 

[streettopeschel]

Maybe spoke too soon.

 

[joeywa]

Tied at 6

Texas gets screwed on a 1&3 situation w/2 outs. Runner on 1B is picked off before the runner at 3B crosses the plate, but blue rules that run scored. Gave WVU their 6th run

 

[streettopeschel]

8-6 WVU after 5. Two runs after an E5 prolonged the inning.

 

[joeywa]

Kacy gets an RBI double

Texas trails 8-7 B6

Tres just missed a 2-out HR foul

 

[joeywa]

12-7 now after a 2 run shot of Kingham in B6

 

[joeywa]

Kingham was dealing meatballs up; another HR in B7 makes it 13-7

Horns go in order T8

B8 Shugart in

 

[joeywa]

WVU adds one more in B8; leads 14-7

 

[joeywa]

Shugart walked bases full in B8.  McKenzie came on to P.  Gives up a FC that gets a run in.

T9

Kacy draws a leadoff walk; WVU making a pitching change.
