Texas vs. Arizona State Baseball, Game 3
Omaha or bust.
Texas vs. Arizona State, Game 2
Yes, that's ASU great Barry Bonds pre-HGH watermelon head. 180 pounds, stealing 35 bags, with a size 7.5 hat. Our hitters could use a little of what he had. Yesterday's hitting performance by the Longhorns was fairly disgraceful. We're a three bat lineup and yesterday we had some guys with a...
Texas vs. Arizona State Open Thread
If we can procure a tribe of pygmies to shrink Barry Bonds' head to normal size, we have a chance. Foes here. Friends here. Plus, a little something to whet your Omaha appetite with an hour to go to first pitch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXXBhTBa-Kw and...
Texas vs. AM Will Decide Big 12 Baseball Crown
That series is ten days away, but it should determine the Big 12 champion with each team needing to win 2 out of 3. Although A&M sits atop the Big 12 standings on a percentage basis (15-6 record), they still have to play a home series with last place Nebraska this weekend while Texas (17-7) faces...
Taylor Jungmann – His Place In The Longhorn Pitching Pantheon?
The pantheon of Longhorn pitching immortals is well-established: Burt Hooton, Greg Swindell, Kirk Dressendorfer, Street father and son - to name a few - but right now we're seeing numbers from our junior ace which aren't just spectacular. They are historic. The 6-6, 220 pound junior ace is 10-0...
Need A Good Laugh?
The Zen Master and his boys provide in abundance. Trust me, you want to click on that link. A hat tip to Inside Texas for bringing it to my attention. Tim Maitland and Keifer Nuncio made me lose it. Props to McKirahan for selling The Situation costume by doing push ups in the batter's box...
Cole Green, Tant Shepherd To Return To Longhorn Baseball
As expected, we lost Chance Ruffin and Brandon Workman , but the return of Cole Green and Tant Shepherd is salve on the departure wounds. Shepherd hit .337 last year to lead the team in batting average and he'll be a strong stabilizing force for next year's young offense. Cole Green, the Big 12...
Yes, Baseball Is A Cruel Game
The air of inevitability is consistently overplayed in sports and there is no sport which laughs at that notion more than baseball. Though this setback is being linked in the same Oh, What A Disappointing Year narrative as our basketball team's epic fail or football's MNC hearbreaker, it doesn't...
Bring On The Frogs
Texas reminded us what the Longhorns look like when they're playing for something. Hi! Over the course of the regional, the Horns surrendered three runs in three games, saw dominant pitching performances from Brandon Workman, Chance Ruffin, and Taylor Jungmann, backed them up with awesome defense...
Texas Baseball: 46-8, Home Run Record
After sweeping Missouri last weekend in every concievable fashion (pitching & defense: 5-2, clutch 9th inning rally: 6-4, 5 home run gorilla ball display: 20-11), the Horns finish the year with an incredible 24-3 record in conference, which sets the league win record on the 27 game schedule. ...
