Bottom of the ninth, TAM at bat, OU up 13-8.
Man oh man, all I heard all week was how aggy pitchin was gonna dominate the tournament.
I appreciate the ESPN analysis. We spanked them mofos brother. 😉
I don’t think its disappointment just more pointing out anytime we go to the bullpen it becomes shaky. It was a problem all season for the most part.
Texas loses to ND. We play ND Sunday evening while Texas and TAM go at it Sunday afternoon in the losers bracket.
Tough kid for sure. I would imagine he has a pretty nice bruise today that likely hurts like hell also.
I will be surprised if Kade Fletcher does not fill the DH spot but let's see what Johnson has in his coffers. Fletcher connects well with the ball. He had problems with patience and went out of the zone too often. He had .340 averaGE and .540 OBP his second year at Paris JC.
I wasn't disappointed. I was thrilled. Taped it and watched til after 1 a.m. But the goal now has to be winning the thing. Otherwise, you're like seven others that just made it to Omaha. As long as we're playing good defense and making good contact, then we have a chance. But when you number two starter, enters the game in relief with an eight run lead, walks the first batter on five pitches, and gets only one out, while facing five or six batters, it doesn't bode well for the rest of the tournament. Especially with the wind blowing in from left at least a little, throw the damn ball in the strike zone.
I’m sure this was a part of the list but their pitcher not picking up the ball was hilarious !
IAS below is a link to the game highlight with that play in it. If I remember right they scored it a single and honestly I would have done the same.
I myself think we blew the air out from under aggy's sails. I think the horn's are gonna knock aggy out here shortly. Jmho.
Maybe you are right. I just feel that Texas are not as deep in the bull pen and are a younger team. Texas A&M have more errors as a team than the anyone in the regional field of 64. They have more upper classmen and have a solid and deep bullpen that has gotten them out of many games with a win. Let us get by ND and see them face the winner of the battle for texass bragging rights.
I think errors and non errors are defined by each individual keeping score. I know my son in laws father is harder on my grandsons 9U travel team than I am. For instance if a kid takes a bad angle at a fly ball and fails to catch it he is likely to give that kid an error. It might be a bone headed play to speak if he doesnt get to the ball because of that bad angle he took but it also doesnt mean it should be an error because of that. I could certainly see though someone also scoring it as an error like on that pitcher. Basically to me a mental error isnt the same as a physical error.
Totally agree on all points. Errors are as judgemental as balls and strikes are. There are guidelinenes to go by but in the end its up to the scorer/ump as to how they apply them.
