UMHB 3 - TLU 2

Looks like it was a pretty solid game. Hull still getting himself in a little trouble with bad timing on those BBs and HBPs, but you'd like to think that if you hold UMHB to 3 runs and those top four hitters to a 2-15 day, that you have a good chance to win that game. I'd take that performance every time out against that team.

The bottom line is that TLU struck out entirely too much, particularly with two outs and chances to get a a run across. They can't seem to put all facets of the game together.

They say good teams find a way to win, evidently that's what happened here. You have to commend Garza on his job on the bump. He did a good job scattering the 10 hits, and struck out 11. He's not a power pitcher; TLU should be putting the ball in play and making things happen against a team that hasn't fielded that great this year.

It should be an interesting DH tomorrow. Did the loss diminish confidence and emotionally drain the Bulldogs or did it convince them they can play with UMHB? The starting pitching on Saturday has been suspect all year, but Wesson pitched well in his first start last weekend against McMurry. Can he duplicate that effort?

Anyone know why I am not allowed to send private messages?
Pat had to disable PM privileges to "newbies" because some guy got on the message boards and started spamming.  >:(

You pick up those privileges after several levels of posting.

The ability to applaud or smite on the Karma comes after 201 posts.  JSG is right about the way it works.

I rarely smite someone, but I use "applaud" Karma very liberally for contributions to the site that help us all and/or give specific content.

I watched every single pitch of that game. 1st of all it was fairly cold, i usually know the weather, and it caught me by surprise when i got out of my car.  This cold weather brought precipitation and a steady wind that was blowing in the hitters faces the entire game about 10-15 mph.

TLU
im not convinced these guys cannot win 1 possibly even 2 games tomorrow.  For 1 as JSG noted, hopefully they were mature enough to see that they played right along side the #18 team in the nation and handed them the game.  They need to figure out really quickly how to hit on all cylinders.  For the most part it all came down to poor execution for the Bulldogs.  Not getting bunts down, steal attempts in the wrong situations, and a very lazy tempo.  Logan Hull through 26 consecutive 1st pitch fastballs at 1 point.  i mean i understand he only throws 2 pitches, and for the most part he shut the UMHB lineup down, but he needs to mix it up.  One would think that for a reagular starting pitcher (Hull) who threw 90% fastballs today would be able to control it enough to not hit a batter with the bases loaded....but he did, and it proved to be the winning run for the Crusaders.  The TLU hitters were taking fastballs and swinging and crap out of the strikezone after getting behing in the count.  They had plenty of oppurtunities to capitalize on UMHB's day off, but went ahead and took the day off themselves.  Hull's performance on paper may look good, but i think the wind blowing in the hitters faces is the cause for his success today.  He looked out of control and mindless on the mound.  He could easily take the control of the game if he would work quicker and mix uo his pitches.  in my mind, umhb handed tlu this game and tlu handed it right back to them.

umhb
this was my first hard focus on this ball club.  they didnt look any stronger than a struggling tlu team today.  rb garza did a great job of establishing command early and seemed to have a plan out on the mound.  he never got in serious trouble, and when tlu had runners in scoring position it was with 2 outs or with hitters with poor approaches at the plate.  he is by no means an overpowering pitcher, but once again, by throwing strikes and going right at the tlu hitters that refused to make adjustments with the wind blowing in, he was able to shut them down and throw a complete game.  the umhb bodies look weak as a whole....but noone can argue with the fact that they keep finding a way to win, so for right now, they stand as the best team in the west.


overall, slow paced game even though it only took 2 hrs 15 min...lots of timeouts, and mound visits, and timidness.  neither team looked as though they really wanted to win....its almost like umhb was waiting to see if TLU was really not very good this year and tlu was waiting to see if umhb was as good as everyone says they are.  neither team took control of the game, and neither team took advantage of both starting pitchers throwing 75%+ fastballs.  I think tomorrow is up in the air right now depending on how tlu responds to handing umhb the game.  either way tlu hasnt gotten eny better since their first conf series against ctx, and i saw a umhb team that looks very beatable if a BALLCLUB shows up to perform in Red Murff field.

and again i state, right now umhb is still the best team in the west, and right now they are finding ways to win...kudos to them, and kudos to rb garza for his complete game performance.

McMurry leads 10-0 in the bottom of the 8th.

3B Derek David is 3-5 with 2 runs and 4 RBI including a double and solo HR.


McM 10-0.

Johnston gets a 3-hit shutout.  12 K's, 1 BB in a Complete Game.  (123 pitches.)

David's HR was his 12th of the season.

fungoman

Just got home from the park....UT Dallas upsets Tyler 9-7.

All I have to say is that Campbell did not have his slider tonight. They roughed him up pretty good.

Let the jabbing begin to my Patriots.
