****Texas v Ok St Thurs Big12 Tourney Thread*****

[Bear19]

Do we bring Curtiss in is the question. French is in a groove.

I say leave French in. You know what you got. Never know how someone in the pen is going to throw no matter how reliable they usually are.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Just get the RBI here Clemens. All we need is a sac fly. 

 

[utisdabomb12]

BOOOOOOM CLemens.

1-2 up/away

Hard shot up the middle; 2B grabs the ball, then wildly throws to 2B; RBI single scores Tres, wild throw is E4 scoring CJ.

Runners on 1&2

Texas leads 3-0

 

[joeywa]

Situation; B8; Texas leads 3-0; Texas has runners on 1&2; 1 out.

Not sure if they're going to score that wild throw as an E, so Clemens either has an RBI single w/run scoring on E4, or a 2RBI single.

Gurwitz up

1-0 low

F9; 2 outs; runners hold

Ok St with a new P.   LHP Williams.

Burning Wheeland is really noticeable right now for Ok St.  Huge decision yesterday by their staff to burn 4.1 innings with him in releif.

Marlow up

1-2 looks way away. 

K swinging; check swing and they call him on it.

2 LOB

Another nice win for the Longhorns. Playing good ball right now. Good news is we won again without killing our arms in the bullpen too.

Texas 3/8/1

OSU 0/5/1

[joeywa]

Do we play for the bracket championship tomorrow night?

No, we get tomorrow off, as does TCU.  Both losers play in elimination games tomorrow.

Texas and TCU will play tomorrow's winners on Saturday.

 

[Matt Cotcher]

That really sets the Horns up to their advantage....Thornhill, Cooper & Curtiss are all fresh.

Have to think that after the way the series finished that the team really wanted this game on a personal level.

 

[Bear19]

No, we get tomorrow off, as does TCU. Both losers play in elimination games tomorrow.

Texas and TCU will play tomorrow's winners on Saturday.

Gotcha

 

[Lukus Alderman]

What does our pitching lineup look like for the last part of the tourney?

 

[Bear19]

I assume Thornhill will pitch Saturday.

 

[joeywa]

I assume Thornhill will pitch Saturday.

IDMAS.

Will be interesting to see what we do with Thornhill. I don't think we will pitch him in the first game on Saturday. If we lose the first game Saturday, you may seem him in the second game. Think we will save him until Sunday.
