In the dirt. The runner steals third.

K. Nice slider. The bottom just dropped out of it right at the plate. Two down.

Actually got to see a good bit of yesterdays game on my phone as I was out and about with the ESPN plus app. If there is one thing about the move to the SEC I will like it is the ability to watch on my phone now when I am out of the house. And yes I know you can stream LHN to other devices but I haven't had LHN for a couple of years since we cut the cord. That said what a frustrating game. Can't say it was bad Texas but it sure as heck was mediocre Texas. Need to get the series win today and also win the series against KU for Texas to feel like it is comfortably a 2 seed in someone else's regional.

I didn’t get to watch the game but looks like the box score reads Thomas and Powell went 0-8 at the plate .

That was a back breaker, can’t happen.

Yeah. Shoos was carrying the load yesterday. And Shoos has been on fire lately at bat.

 

[Chop]

Coach is going back-and-forth between Jack and DK at 2nd base on a game-by-game basis. At least one of those 2 needs to start hitting better, and soon.

If both of them keep farting around at the plate (and making errors), he should give Gumbo another look at 2nd base.

[Phil Elliott]

4-0 Texas T2. U know I hate to give a starting pitcher an early lead (cuz it makes them suck) but ok. UCF is already in their bullpen.

 

[giveemhell]

I’d like to see a final score of 15 or 20 to nothing. I want that kid they showed doing the Horns down last night to go home in tears.

 

[Phil Elliott]

LBJ puts up a zero (1 walk) to put the lie on the early lead jinx. 4-0 Texas after 2.

 

[Phil Elliott]

After a leadoff 2B, then 2 outs, JT singles in Galvan on an 0-2 count. 5-0 us T4.

 

[Phil Elliott]

LBJ not overpowering but carrying a no-hitter thru 4 with 72 pitches. Still 5-0 good guys.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Wow. UCF coach ejected for arguing balls and strikes during a mound visit. Hey, trust me dude, we've both had plenty to gripe about in that department!

 

[George Bailey]

I'm always nervous with LBJ on the mound.

 

[Phil Elliott]

After 4 no-hit innings, LBJ falls apart in the 5th and he is done. A leadoff walk and 3 hits with no outs recorded. 5-3 UT and a pitching change. A Dup 2 on in relief.

 

[Phil Elliott]

AD2 not effective. 2 more runs in and he gives way to Hurley. 5-5 and ucf still batting.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Hurley gets us out with a DP 6-3. Still, damage done. 5-5 after 5.

 

[Phil Elliott]

A perfectly good 5-run lead shot to pieces. Pooey.

 

[Phil Elliott]

A 2B and a walk and Victor is done. Pitching change ucf.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Horns answer back with 3 in the 6th. Now 8-5 UT going to B6. Good juju.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Hurley gets em 1-2-3 in B6 to put up a zero. More good juju for UT.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Hurley is done in the 7th after giving up 2 runs. Boehm on in relief its 8-7 us but 2 on 1 out.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Boehm gets a DP on 1 pitch to get us out of it but not b4 a challenge is needed after another terrible call by the 2nd base ump. On to the 8th. 6 more outs to get.
