Horns Down - Game 1 Thread

To the bottom of the 1st, 0-0

 

[CochiseCowbell]

Would've been great to do something with those 2 on in Top 1.

 

[ababyatemydingo]

Valincius got good stuff tonight

20 plus pitches for the Texas starter in the first

 

[Msuirondawgs]

Man that place is EMPTY

 

[PBRME]

That was strike 3.

Need to take full advantage of a light crowd.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

I don't like an umpire with a slow strike call. Lends to too much deliberation & too much outside influence.

 

[She Mate Me]

That was strike 3.

Maybe, and this'll probably be famous last words, but I thought the strike zone was pretty good in that 1st. Really tired of bad home plate umpiring.

 

[Slow Natives]

Bleh, looks like it's gonna be one of those "swing at the pitches in the dirt" night when we get runners on base. Hope we start seeing his spin soon.

 

[skydawg1]

Teel out by a mile on steal attempt, 2 outs...

I think backwards k was lower than the one I was talking about.

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

Lead-Off double for Texas in the 2nd

Tomas pitch count is high early also, he has gone full count on the first 5 hitters

 

[60sdog]

When was the last time we stole second base? Poor

 

[NWADawg]

Valincius isn't gonna last long with these full counts.

 

[thekimmer]

3 ball count every batter

 

[She Mate Me]

Good fundamental ball there by Texas getting that run in.

I'm not in love with TV's command. Hope he settles in.

 

[ababyatemydingo]

Woodson is just terrible at the plate. looks scared every time he's up

 

[Jack Klompus.sixpack]

Texas pitcher looks like a 6 ‘6 Danny Noonan.

 

[Jack Klompus.sixpack]

Punks in Texas bullpen talking S#** to Parker.

 

[ababyatemydingo]

anyone catch the Texas bullpen guy cussing and spitting at Parker after that catch?

 

[biodawg]

Typical Texas dipshittery

 

[She Mate Me]

He needs to get the 17'n bat off his shoulder. You don't accomplish **** checking swings on a guy who's going to be consistently pumping strikes over.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

How many pitches that inning, 7?

 

[Jack Klompus.sixpack]

Hope that guy gets to face Parker tonight on the mound.

Well now State has only struck out 6 times in the first 11ABs. It’s not the K’s that hurt. It’s the first pitch or second pitch easy outs that hurt because you give this guy a chance to pitch deep. Since it was established 45 games ago that State batters couldn’t hit breaking pitches, and through 21 1/3 SEC games, State has averaged 2 runs scored before the 6th inning, seems they are right on schedule.

I mean, when you've got dozens of fans on hand somebody's gotta make some noise.

 

[ababyatemydingo]

better figure out how to hit a curve ball

 

[Called3rdstrikedawg]

these guys are absolutely going to swing at the pitchers out pitch. Do they no go over scouting reports before games? This is kind of embarrassing for a Top 10 team that doesn’t understand the meaning of adjustments.

 

[dog99walker]

This pitcher is eating our lunch thru four.

trash whorens fans

 

[ezsoil]

I don't think any team will ever throw us a fast ball there is no reason to.....

 

[Jack Klompus.sixpack]

Some teams always seem to have a roster full of douches. Texas is one of those teams.

 

[TTKADawg]

Ok we have Two threads going … Hitters gonna have to help Val. He is doing everything he can. BTW … what a loud/packed/hyped TX baseball crowd lol. Imagine this series in Starkville!

 

[TTKADawg]

Some teams always seem to have a roster full of douches. Texas is one of those teams.

And … in EVERY sport.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

Proves my point...how very dramatic and slow was that strike 3?!

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

They missed the review. He was not touching the base in the middle of that slide and Reese had the tag on him.
