Big XII Baseball Tourney Day One

So begins the postseason. Texas takes on a Baylor squad that has lost 10 straight Big XII games. We'd love to see the Horns go 4-0 this week, but 1 or 2 wins ought to be enough to secure at least a mid-level national seed. For those that wanted to see KU or KSU again, you'll get to see both. The Horns will play today and tomorrow then get a day off. It's a pretty important start for Cole Green because it may be indicative his abilities as a game one starter next week. 

Here's the schedule for today:

9:30 AM -- KU vs. KSU

12:30 PM -- Texas vs. Baylor

4:00 PM -- Missouri vs. Texas A&M

7:30 PM -- OU vs. Texas Tech

PROBABLE PITCHING MATCHUPS
Texas: 
RHP Cole Green (4-2, 2.85 ERA)
Baylor: RHP Logan Verrett (7-1, 4.50 ERA)

Live video

Is on the Big XII’s site.

How did we get stuck in this pool?

It’s a conspiracy, I tell you. Kansas AND Kansas State? Wow. I hope we can win two games.

I can't

actually find the video at the link I posted. Can anyone help an idiot out?

wait, found it.
7-3

in the 4th

Texas on top?
correct
oh yeah, should have mentioned.

gametracker, if you can’t get vidya

Thanks - stupid SilverLight
bottom 6

wood coming in already? bases are loaded, 1 out.

Looks like Dichary was terrible

hpb, walked 2 (including with bases loaded), single, double, strikeout

Completely unrelated

UT grad named one of six new ESA astronauts earlier today.

No Aggies. No Gooners. Just the best.

crap nuggets

baylor takes the lead 8-7

9-7

this is… unexpected.

11-7
what a fucking pitching meltdown
let's get some damn runs
Two horrible at-bats to start the inning

Keyes looking like he was going to swing at anything until the called third strike. He and Rupp trying to get all the runs back themselves.

Looks like the bullpen failed us today
Soooooooo..

given the history of this teams lousy performances against the Kansas teams……are we still in the running for a top 8 seed if we don’t win one of these 3 games in the big 12 tourney?

down 13-7 to Baylor…..I’ve thrown in the towel on this one.

Convention wisdom seems to be top eight even with 0-3 week.

Time to get revenge on the state of Kansas.

Ain't over yet

Belt hits a 2 run homer, 13-9 Baylor

Getting through the top of the order here extremely important
6-4-3 DP, 2 outs
Ground out to 1st ends top of the 8th

Bleeding has been stopped?

IF we did lose....

would this be our first loss when scoring 5 or more runs?

Yep

6-6 tie, but only one loss with 4 runs

1 run homer top of the 9th, 14-9 Baylor
Damn, this sucks!

I was following early and just checked back during the 7th innning. Funny that I said I’d take good pitching over good hitting….

I think this next game may show how much heart this team has....

I’m confident that they’ll bring it to whichever lame team we play from kansas

Better be

Should be facing AJ Morris again.

ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

leave for a little bit… and nothing gets better.
