Washington Huskies Series

[Chop]

Dee Kennedy. He has one good play in the field and one E. Let’s see how he is at the plate today.

 

[Chop]

Nothing for us in the bottom of the sixth.

To the 7th

 

[Chop]

Grubbs is done. He pitched really well. 1 run in 6 full innings.

True Freshman Selvig is in to pitch for us. Known for his control. Low 90s fastball and can spot his breaking stuff. His sauce isn’t as hot as Tumis or Hudson Hamilton, but he usually throws strikes.

 

[Chop]

And Selvig beans the first batter. That’s what I get for bragging about his control….

 

[Chop]

Flies out to CF.

one away

 

[Chop]

Belyeu makes the grab in foul territory.

2 down.

 

[Chop]

Arquette at bat for the Dogs. This guy is dangerous.

 

[Chop]

Arquette at bat for the Dogs. This guy is dangerous.

Selvig struck him out!!!

To the stretch.

 

[Chop]

Grubbs is done. He pitched really well. 1 run in 6 full innings.

True Freshman Selvig is in to pitch for us. Known for his control. Low 90s fastball and can spot his breaking stuff. His sauce isn’t as hot as Tumis or Hudson Hamilton, but he usually throws strikes.

That’s pitching today at a 1.50 ERA level for Grubbs, which drives his Season ERA below 3.00. And he should now have enough innings to be considered a starter on the stats sheet. We need more of this.

 

[Chop]

Porter Brown grounds out to 1B. One away.

 

[Chop]

Galvan’s up, with his insane power hitting.

 

[Chop]

Now Galvan grounds out to 1B. It’s a trend.

 

[Chop]

Belyeu.

K.

No insurance that inning…….

On to the 8th.

 

[Chop]

We’ll see how Selvig holds up. And he needs to hold up.

Fastball in the low 90s and he paints the corners really with it well. Breaking stuff isn’t spectacular, but it’s ok and it gets the job done. Control is his middle name (When he’s not beaming batters…). But he can be hit by the better batters.

 

[Chop]

Lead off single to LF.

 

[Chop]

NOoooooooooooo!

2 run Homerun to LF.

 

[WorsterMan]

Well crap, 2 run HR for the dogs!

 

[Chop]

4-3 us.

 

[Chop]

Enter Andre DuP

 

[Chop]

We’ll need to thaw our bats out again.

 

[WorsterMan]

AD has got to throw strikes!

Texas Fight!!!

 

[WorsterMan]

This is the last inning - dogs got to catch a plane.

 

[Chop]

For THIS YEAR, Selvig’s best use might be as a mid-week starter or mid-week long reliever. We might want to move Fontenot up to first man out of the pen on weekends, or even weekend starter if Ace and Grubbs aren’t getting it done.

 

[Chop]

Ground out.

Now a single.

 

[Chop]

Yeah!

Caught him stealing. 2 down.

 

[JohnnyBravo]

Des this team have a clutch hitter?

 

[Chop]

K!!!!

DuP has always had the sauce. Control has been his struggle. And throwing straight fastballs right down the middle.

 

[WorsterMan]

Whew! Horns win 4 -3 and avoid a sweep. Go 1-2 in this series.

 

[Chop]

Des this team have a clutch hitter?

Powell

 

[Chop]

Whew! Horns win 4 -3 and avoid a sweep.

I’ll take it.
