******Texas vs Okie Light Friday Baseball Thread*****

[joeywa]

Ok boys and girls, we have a rather large series facing us this weekend.  Conference-leading Oklahoma State is in town for three, starting tonight at 7 PM CST. 

Texas is 2-games behind Ok. St. in the standings. 

Ok. St. is ranked as follows:

9-NCBWA

14-Collegiate Baseball

15-USA Today

21-Perfect Game & Baseball America

Ok St. is coming off of a 3-game series sweep of Kansas in Stillwater, and a Tuesday 15-8 loss to UR Oral Roberts.

Probable Starting Pitchers
Jr. RHP Jon Perrin (5-2, 2.11) vs. Jr. RHP Parker French (4-3, 2.27)
Fr. RHP Tyler Buffett (2-1, 1.85) vs. Jr. LHP Dillon Peters (5-3, 2.70)
TBA vs. Sr. RHP Nathan Thornhill (6-1, 0.97)

Tonight's Ok St starter, Perrin, began the season in the pen, but was moved to Friday starter in mid-March.  He lost games against Baylor & TCU, but has won his last 3 starts, giving up one run in his last 21.1 innings.  Of note, he threw 130-pitches in a complete-game, 9K 6-hit shutout last Friday against Kansas.   I don't see that trend continuing tonight.  I see a letdown game in my crystal ball. 

I'll put up the lineup card when it's available. 

Another note: I'll be at my son's HS game which starts at 6PM CST.  I'll probably pick up with some PBP later on after the game.  I will be watching, but will only be posting from the mobile site.  

Hook Em, and let's get after the pokes.  Get to this guy early, and I think we're in for a good night.

Wow, Finnegan was just pulled from the game. Saying the injury didn't look good. That isn't good for TCU. 

 

[utisdabomb12]

French looking good so far. Struggled a little bit with command in the last few games.

Guess tie to the runner doesn't exist anymore. 

 

[utisdabomb12]

Barrera thought that was the inning, lol running off the field. Freshman is going to get ribbed for that. 

 

[utisdabomb12]

This ump isn't giving that outside of the strike zone. That's fine, but he better be consistent. French threw about 3 pitches there that were close.

That will work.
