Moderator joeywa Posted April 29 Moderator Report Share Posted April 29 Happy Friday Seamheads. First things first, if you haven't had a chance to read it yet, HornSports has a new beat writer for baseball. Welcome @Cameron Cormier He's in the press box doing game recaps. Hoping to have him pop into a game thread every so often and give some insight and opinions. He has written several game recaps for the last couple of series. As for tonight, we get to watch how Texas comes out after a thorough destruction of Baylor last weekend. At this point, every win counts for the Horns. Ok State will prove to be a more worthy opponent than Baylor. They are currently ranked 8th by D1 Baseball. The Pokes are struggling of late, having gone 2-3 in their last 5, including dropping two to TCU and one midweek to Oral Roberts. That said, they still hold a 1-game lead over the Horns in the Big12 standings. Sirhornsalot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
