****Offical Texas Baseball Thread****

Here's a dyk for you guys.

I asked my brother when was the last time TX won a super series away from Austin. He said it was the year Augie won his first Series. That was 18 years ago. Let's break that steak this year.

Oh and Texas State came up short against ST can't say that I'm surprised.

 

[RoboCocks21]

Texas state closer didn't close out the game last night they had a first timer try to close it out, well that didn't end well back to back homeruns to tie in the 9th then a single walked it off....

Their closing pitcher started last night bullpen failed at the end

That's what happens when you are playing your 4th or 5th game in 4 days. If you fall to the losers bracket you have to have deep pitching. This is why we have to win while Hansen and Gordon are on the mound.

When it comes to this time of the year whoever has a deep bullpen usually fairs better, Texas State was sitting in the championship waiting for Stanford, bullpen was fine until they had to reach the last game

It was actually in 2005, which was the year of Augie's second national championship.

And in fairness to us, that was also the last time Texas played a super regional on the road, so it's not like we have some long losing streak in supers played in other teams' houses. We've only ever been on the road for two super regionals (2003 at Florida State, and 2005 at Ole Miss), and we won both of them.

So it was the second title not the first. I'm not surprised this only our the third time on the road for a super series. So tell me about East Carolina. I think they're ranked 8th and I know we're ranked 9th. Tell me more.

ECU is 45-19 and was on a 19-game winning streak before they lost a game in their regional last weekend. They are a very good team.

[Oldmanastro]

BOOM!! 2 run shot by Murphy Stehly. 2-0 going to bottom of 1st.

 

[RoboCocks21]

Pete needs to get it together

 

[horn wild]

If he shits the bed we are toast.

 

[weevilcatch]

Love lead off walks after your team gives you a lead. Takes some big testes to want to make it harder on yourself. Just incredible fortitude to go in there and set the ****ing time.

Damnit pitchers whip my ass.

 

[RoboCocks21]

Pete worst outing! He is done

 

[LonghornMM]

The achilles heel of this team is pitching. Gotta get the bats going now!

 

[RoboCocks21]

He is blowing a 89 mph fastball by us! Wow

 

[LonghornMM]

You can feel it. This game isn't going to go Texas' way today. Everything going ECU's way.

 

[Hoookem722]

Looking like doo doo today.

 

[RoboCocks21]

I was like why would you bring in Zane! And then that sh!+ happens!

 

[RoboCocks21]

Looking like doo doo today.

I'm trying to remember a series we're we started like this.....we haven't fair very well after losing game 1 in a series

 

[Hoookem722]

We are making some noise here in the 6th. Maybe we can get a couple more runs and be right back in it!

 

[KChorn11]

With the way our pitching has been you gotta figure winning game 1 is a must… gonna take a come back

 

[weevilcatch]

Send the ****ing runner Pierce you pussy. I don’t give a shit if it’s the catcher.

 

[weevilcatch]

Announcers try too hard to make stories and create drama.

 

[weevilcatch]

Hodo. Have an inning pal smh

 

[weevilcatch]

Oh. Hey, look. A ****ing walk scored. Shocker

 

[2300 Nueces]

Oh. Hey, look. A ****ing walk scored. Shocker

And we fired Auggie for Pierce..

 

[Hoookem722]

Our bullpen is a joke.

 

[RoboCocks21]

Well this series is over....ecu is no better than us our bullpen has just been crap and hodo pretty much gave that inning away

 

[2300 Nueces]

Auggie would make their lives unlivable for this kind of play.

 

[RoboCocks21]

Ridiculous the short stop came and closed it out....they have a pitching staff that won't make it in Omaha

 

[LonghornMM]

And we fired Auggie for Pierce..

I loved Augie, but it was time.

One cool think about College baseball. I remember one year (like 20 years ago) in the CWS Ga Tech subbed in the catcher mid inning to pitch.

Even our own Brooks Kieshnick did both.

 

[LonghornMM]

Home teams in Supers winning the first game advance to Omaha 80% of the time. Gotta some how win these next two games! We're just going to have to outscore them in high scoring games.

 

[weevilcatch]

I loved Augie, but it was time.

When Pierce is undoubtedly fired, the short list should be…

Brian O’Conner
Kevin O’Sullivan
Tim Corbin

That’s it.
