Holy shit.

These guys may not be all that good, but they don't quit.  I'll take that any day.

Now we get 2 and they get 1. Or vice versa but hopefully it’s the former.

Agreed. Glad somebody could put aluminum on one.

lol unreal. This team just keeps finding ways to win (after finding ways to lose).

I almost feel bad for Xavier. lololol

Both Friday night and this afternoon, they’ve looked like they got bounced from Omaha after the two walk offs. Pure devastation lol.

Can we look on Craigslist for a closer?

WTF LHN.  Christ.

When all 3 games are 6-5, does it matter?

A sweep is a sweep. But we look . . . not so great.  Should be an interesting rest of the season.  

What doesn't kill you can make you stronger.  Texas winning these close games, even with the errors and misplays, will help.

Now they need to take those ninth inning with 2 outs at bats all game long against aggy tuesday night.

Xavier looked much better than their record to me.  The starter Friday night had a near 10 ERA but was not walking anyone and battling all night against Texas(first start for him).  The starter yesterday also walked few and pitched well.  The guy today was throwing gas but too wild.(I'd like to see the Rangers pick him up in the 10th round or so)

Their hitters were pesky and battled much harder than their 9-18 record would indicate.   Some talented big dudes as well. 

BTW:  5/11 with a HBP and walk( 0 K's) for Shaw on the weekend. 🤘

Call someone up from the minors... I mean Jr College??

I've watched a bit of college baseball outside of Texas.  They tying run comes to the plate in the 8th and 9th innings a lot.  

What impresses me most about this squad is they don't ever look defeated or beat.   The mistakes and bobbles are bothersome but this team should improve as the season progresses.

Think about how good we'd be if we could just cut the stupid out.

Also applicable to the football and men's basketball teams this past year.

This is true in all the big 3 sports. Strong couldn't win the close games, Shaka hasn't been able to win the close games, Herman won the close games this year, and Pierce has shown the ability to win close games. 

The success of coaches is often driven by how their teams execute late in games. 

 

Blowouts happen a lot too, outside of UT baseball tilts

It’s great to be so even-keeled and baseball savvy that you don’t need a place to vent when you’re pissed about the performance of your team.  

Loop is of the "not a good fan unless you never say anything stingingly critical" camp.

I get it, just not, nor will ever be in that camp.

The call 'em how you see 'em mantra is more to my taste.

They are. They have some bad losses but they've been swept in 3 series against Texas, UNC, and ASU. All teams in the top 20 in RPI. All those games were on the road too.
