Consider the questions about Chance Ruffin answered. For now. Ruffin came in and struck out three of the five batters he faced to shut the door after a very strong no-decision by Taylor Jungmann (7.2 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 8 Ks). Jungmann's ERA has now skyrocketed to 0.83 while Chance has now given up just the one earned run in six appearances (0.82 ERA). Brandon Loy's batting average may still stink but he had the biggest hit of the night for the Horns, an RBI double in the bottom of the eighth to give Texas the lead for good. After an incredible start, Tant Shepherd is coming back down to earth with an 0-11 performance his last three games, but Tant got on base and scored both runs for Texas on Friday. The win over Rice broke a four game losing streak to the Owls.
It'll be Brandon Workman on the mound at 3:30 PM today against Houston's Friday starter the first two weeks of the season Michael Goodnight (1-1, 6.52 ERA). There's free video for the game available here.

Brandon Workman, 4.09 1-0
TheBlanton - March 6, 2010
Mizzou and TCU in extra innings
Tied at 3, probably will delay the start of Horns-Cougs
40AS - March 6, 2010
4-3 TCU
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
what time is our game likely to start?
Ohio Horn - March 6, 2010
Last night we were 20 minutes late
So I’d guess it would start in the next 10 minutes, no idea though
40AS - March 6, 2010
thanks
switching between this and bball
Ohio Horn - March 6, 2010
Looks like it's going to start soon

Yup. watch the hit and then hear the bat
Ohio Horn - March 6, 2010
Keyes strikes out
High heat
Bot 1 0-0
40AS - March 6, 2010
Goodnight goes Keyes
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
isn't usually the other way around?
Usually the video is delayed
Ohio Horn - March 6, 2010
I guess you get what you pay for
40AS - March 6, 2010
Leadoff triple for Houston
40AS - March 6, 2010
Houston's first hit of the game is a stand up triple? uh oh
Ohio Horn - March 6, 2010
Wild pitch scores a run
40AS - March 6, 2010
Listening to these broadcasters
makes me even more grateful for Craig & Keith.
“How ’bout it baby!”
“Wooo son!”
Seriously, Cougar High?
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
after what? two pitches?
Ohio Horn - March 6, 2010
Yea, they're a tad excitable
40AS - March 6, 2010
Groundout to Loy
Strikeout
2 away
40AS - March 6, 2010
Groundout to Tant
1-0 Houston through 1
40AS - March 6, 2010
Rowe hammers a ball to left center
Just missed a homer, deep part of the ballpark so it’s a long out
40AS - March 6, 2010
Kyle Lusson walks
He needs a nickname, both Lussons do
40AS - March 6, 2010
Picked off
:(
40AS - March 6, 2010
Can't argue a balk
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
These broadcasters are getting on my nerves
Learn the rules, for crying out loud.
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
It's CUSA baseball, can't expect much more...
Sucks that we can’t listen to Keith Moreland today
40AS - March 6, 2010
Lusson walks
Balked to second
Etier strikes out
1-0 Houston
40AS - March 6, 2010
We sure strikeout a lot
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
Yea
About 6% more than last year
40AS - March 6, 2010
At least we are running up Goodnight's pitch count
He’s closing in on 50 after 2 innings.
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Beautiful play by Kevin Lusson
1 away
40AS - March 6, 2010
Man is the basketball team frustrating to watch
40AS - March 6, 2010
Just turned the tv off can't stand watching them lose so much they are the worst first place team this year
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
Nice plays by Loy and Etier
3 quick outs…
1-0 through 2
40AS - March 6, 2010
Shepherd flies out to left
40AS - March 6, 2010
Loy singles up the middle
And another balk called
40AS - March 6, 2010
I can't believe the umps are allowing this
It is explicitly against the rules to argue a balk call.
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
May not be arguing
May just be getting clarification, which I believe is allowed
40AS - March 6, 2010
Called strike three
That pitch looked inside, Rupp not thrilled
40AS - March 6, 2010
And that'll do it for me watching basketball
40AS - March 6, 2010
Moldy walks
Goodnight throwing a ton of pitches, anybody got a count?
40AS - March 6, 2010
Mid 60s
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
I'm switching over to Keith & Bill
Keith usually gives the count pretty frequently when it’s getting high, but best I can figure, he’s around 65 or so.
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Wish I could do that :(
40AS - March 6, 2010
Keyes smokes one to straight away center
But the park’s too deep. That’s a homer in Omaha.
1-0 Houston Bot 3
40AS - March 6, 2010
Didn't see how the first out was made
Had hit ball, Etier makes a great play

Grounder to Loy for the first out
bassale47 - March 6, 2010

Workman only at 30 pitches after 3

Must get to Goodnight in this inning.
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Etier and Shepherd both ground out to 3rd
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Loy flies out to left
Quick inning for Goodnight. 90 pitches after 5.
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
5-6-7 up for Rice
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Workman has retired 12 in a row
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Fly out to center
1 out, no one on
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Rupp fields a chopper in front of the plate and gets the out at first

bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Single up the middle past Etier
2 outs, runner on 1st
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Workman pitching from the stretch for the first time today
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
4-pitch walk
2 outs, runners on 1st and 2nd
Owls bring in a pinch runner at 2nd
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Cougar High sounding very aggy-ish with their "Ball 5" nonsense
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
We really need to win after the embarrassing loss to Baylor on the hardwood
Ohio Horn - March 6, 2010
Workman strikes out Still to end the inning
He’s thrown 59 pitches through 5 innings
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
He's absolutely rolling
A shame that he’s getting no offense
40AS - March 6, 2010
I thought that was Travis Tucker on the kiss cam for a sec
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
Rupp, Moldy, and Keyes up
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Whats up with the voice over guy in between innings I feel like im watching a movie trailer
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
These announcers are seriously getting wood just mentioning Goodnights name
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
Ugh
Another hard hit ball
40AS - March 6, 2010
Goodnight about to throw his 100th pitch
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Do we have a leadoff runner on today?
40AS - March 6, 2010
Nope
9 Ks in 6 innings is pathetic. Goodnight is not Stephen Strasburg.
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Top of the order up for Rice
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Workman doesn't look as comfortable now
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Workman is throwing an awesome game to bad he can't get any run support
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
Big K for Workman
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Raynor Noble will milk Goodnight for all he can get
Need to get runners on base
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Nice DP
Let’s get some runs!
40AS - March 6, 2010
Alright last 9 outs lets make them count
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
Rowe, Lusson, Lusson up for Texas
Goodnight at just over 100 pitches
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Why's Rowe swinging at the first pitch?
And going out of the zone at that
40AS - March 6, 2010
Can't let this guy have 6-pitch innings
His control is not that great.
Make him work for it.
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Bill Little is way off on his pitch count for Goodnight
Poor Bill
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Damn
Helluva play by the SS
40AS - March 6, 2010
We have faced a couple of good pitchers this weekend
But our offense has been horrible. No way around it.
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Definitely
Loy and Kevin Lusson are just killing us (Loy’s hit last night notwithstanding)
40AS - March 6, 2010
New pitcher for Houston
40AS - March 6, 2010
Starting with Etier, Shepherd, and Loy
Loy has one of those Horns’ 2 hits today, so we’ve got that going for us
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Ty Stuckey
3.38 ERA, 5.1 IP, 2 ER, 8 walks
40AS - March 6, 2010
What a horrible call
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Etier had to swing at that high pitch
Because of the ump’s terrible call on the pitch before
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Did he just woo
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
Nothing worse than commenators trying to make early season college baseball sound critical
40AS - March 6, 2010
Loy walks
Finally a baserunner
40AS - March 6, 2010
This ump aswelll as the announcers are horrible
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
wow ball 4 I thought he was going to ring up for strike 3
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
FUUUUUUUCK
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
Loy has now been picked off 5 times this season
That’s absurd
40AS - March 6, 2010
Another BS call
But our base running has been awful too
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
I thought he was out
Oy
40AS - March 6, 2010
Hey boys, just got to the thread
How’s the game?
SneezyBeltran - March 6, 2010
Workman has been amazing
Nothing on offense
40AS - March 6, 2010
It seems like I remember something like that last night
when I was at Minute Maid….
SneezyBeltran - March 6, 2010
We're on the verge of losing 1-0 to Cougar High, wasting a great outing by Workman
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Nice pick off.
Runte should have bunte :)
BurnOut78 - March 6, 2010
Wow...
We got 2-hit against a dude with 6.52 ERA??

C'mon Moldy!
40AS - March 6, 2010
3-1 pitch coming
40AS - March 6, 2010
Ball four!
Didn’t miss by much there
40AS - March 6, 2010
NICE
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
This ump is all over the place
Talk about moving the goalposts
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Bunt Keyes here
IMO
40AS - March 6, 2010
Please no DP ball
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
Looked like the same pitch as strike two.
BurnOut78 - March 6, 2010
Bunt sounds great right now
kcmorse - March 6, 2010
Maitland to PR for Moldy
bassale47 - March 6, 2010

40AS - March 6, 2010
Ugh
What is he swinging at?
40AS - March 6, 2010
What a terrible AB
40AS - March 6, 2010
Connor Rowe up
He’s hit the ball hard today
40AS - March 6, 2010
Nasty pitch, swung at a ball
goingforthecorner - March 6, 2010
Rowe has been clutch
Let’s see if he can pull it out
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
1-2
goingforthecorner - March 6, 2010
Nice job laying off the slider
goingforthecorner - March 6, 2010
Strikeout, gotta take a swing at that
must have been guessing slider. Ugh.
goingforthecorner - March 6, 2010
Ugh
Strikes out looking, right down the middle
40AS - March 6, 2010
Dang man, this sucks
SneezyBeltran - March 6, 2010
Juco transfer Paul Montabano
First AB
40AS - March 6, 2010
Interesting decision from Augie
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
It worked with Kyle Russell :)
40AS - March 6, 2010
Montalbano
40AS - March 6, 2010
Wow, how was that not a strike?
goingforthecorner - March 6, 2010
2-0
goingforthecorner - March 6, 2010
Not all that shocking
Just shows what Augie thinks about this game, it’s a learning opportunity
40AS - March 6, 2010
Damn
That sucks
40AS - March 6, 2010
Ahh fuck
so close to tying the game. Lol at the homer color commentator.
goingforthecorner - March 6, 2010
Hit it hard, just a great play
40AS - March 6, 2010
Awwwww
That was painful. Game of inches.
BurnOut78 - March 6, 2010
What a shitty day
losing to fucking Baylor and U of H on the same day.
goingforthecorner - March 6, 2010
Yeah
I would walk a wide ciricle around Brandon Workman tonight if I were those guys
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
Oh well
Mizzou tomorrow at 11 AM
40AS - March 6, 2010
Is this something we'll have to worry about all year?
Starting pitching playing their hearts out but getting no run support?
goingforthecorner - March 6, 2010
Looks that way so far
bassale47 - March 6, 2010
I would think the hittting will come around like last year
SneezyBeltran - March 6, 2010
Amen bassale
BurnOut78 - March 6, 2010
Hmm... so Rice is playing "Texas Tech A&M"
