Tech has more runs than hits. We should be winning. 

That’s baseball dude.  Situational performance matters more than any sport.

    If taking this series loss means we get Daly and Campbell going at the plate, I'll make that trade. 

  • Boy, Jung’s 1st inning douchebaggery not aging well.   lolololololol

A cruel game, at times.

Nice play by Trey and good job by Nixon against the heart of their order.

Maybe score some runs?

Nixon keeping us in it.

Glad tech not running up the pitch count.  Nixon probably good to come back for another inning...

Well he’s going to end up throwing him for 2 innings anyway…..

Hindsight is 20/20. Are you arguing that Pierce should have known that Silas was going to overthrow 2nd? Or he should have known that Melendez wouldn't take the out at first? How do you know that Nixon wouldn't get taken yard by their first hitter? Or walk him just like Southard did?

Can't believe how many 3rd strikes Texas hitters have watched go by...

Good job Campbell. Way to bat.

This one is on Pierce, sends in guy who can't throw strikes against their 7-9 hitters. 

Well we haven't lost yet

I don’t know any of that, but I do know Nixon is our closer and despite any shaky outings he may have had, he still has a 0.00 ERA. Now we are asking him to go 3 innings when we could have asked him to just start the 8th with a one run lead.

I hate extra inning games where your team bats first.

This game is huge and all and I would have completely been on board with putting him in, but I can see Pierce thinking about the next two games. Of course now we are probably going to be without Nixon for the rest of the weekend.

Furk, leadoff walk.  Need a dp.

He didn’t go around?

He absolutely did. No replay from red raider tv

Okay but there's no guarantee they don't tie the game anyway. You admit yourself Nixon has been shaky. He has a 0 ERA but he also hasn't come out to start the 8th yet this year. You're acting like Southard totally blew it and he really didn't. He walked one batter and we fucked it up from there. 

Either way you're entitled to your opinion. Not saying you aren't right - entirely possible you are. Just trying to defend DP's decision there.

Throw fucking strikes.


I guess if our catcher jerks the ball back 5 inches this jag off will call it a strike. 
 

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills when this guy rewards shitty pitch framing.

All of them.

Pretty unreal they gifted their leadoff that walk. 

Good bunt.  Really need a K here.

Because he just struck his pussy ass out.

My guess is that he’s in the 8 hole for a reason. 0-3 tonight

You'd rather go after 8 and 9 that let the leadoff guy with the .391 BA hit.

Huge K there.

well that's a fuck

Just when you think you’ve seen it all.
