RIPS the first pitch into the LF corner for a stand-up leadoff double. 

He just sat back on that, let it travel and he squared up on that one nicely and pulled it down the line.

Marlow

0-1 take

0-2 swings at a curve; bottom fell out of that pitch

1-2 away

U1; what amounts to a swinging bunt; P takes it off the bump and outruns Marlow to the bag; 1 out

Gurwitz to 3B

Johnson

1-0 shows bunt, ball gets away from C; Gurwitz stays at 3B

Check of Gurwitz at 3B

Rips a fly to LF; it's shallow due to wind, and a play at the plate ends with Gurwitz getting under the tag. 2 outs

Texas leads 1-0

Payton

0-1 take

1-1 up

Singles into RF; line drive high over 1B head.

Are you not following along java? 

 

[joeywa]

Unless something big happens, i.e. a run scored, I generally do an entire half-inning at a time. 

 

[java]

yes, I'm following.  saw the run for Texas posted and asked for details.  think you posted about same time as i did.
