Is it just me or is are base running sometimes dumb af lol. We give up so may easy double plays by starting the runners and getting caught in a chase down lol.

Are they supposed to just not take free stolen bases?

That one didn’t work out but 9 times out of 10 it will.

Also these umps have been bad, dude had at least 3 BALKs want ole miss in this game so fkn bad.

Volantis strikes out Bissetta to open the fourth.

It may feel like an over exaggeration but I’m pretty sure these “free” stolen bases have cost us 2-3 out alone in this series. I’m not for giving people free outs or free bases hence blowing a 7-3 lead.

This Blue has had a tight strike zone all weekend.  

At least it’s consistent

I wouldn’t even say that, half the time the zone has been where it crosses, the other half is where it ends. This has been exceptionally bad.

Yeah but Schloss has always had an aggressive offense that applies pressure on the base paths.  Sometimes if you can speed up the defense they will start making fielding mistakes.  When he coached at TCU he was the only coach that scared me and gave Augie Garrido fits.

After a 7-pitch at-bat, Volantis retires Decker on strikes, striking out the side in the fourth.

M4: Texas 3, Ole Miss 0

Volantis has thrown 67 pitches through four, with eight strikeouts. One walk and three hits allowed.

Several guys up and stretching in the Texas bullpen.

That's a nice piece of hitting by Pack. He goes the other way for a leadoff single to left in the bottom of the fourth.

Pack is a really good 0-2 hitter

Hitting a ball over 100 MPH off the bat while Carson Tinney is standing on third base cuz he got such a good job isn’t a free out, it’s just bad luck.

A free out would be sac bunting with 1 out and a man on first or something dumb.

BOOM! BOR-BOMB!

Is hitting a fastball by a Division One SEC pitcher, the hardest thing to do in college sports? It seems like it.

It was a hit and run that was squared up to center. If that ball finds grass or a gap it's2 runs or 1st and 3rd no outs. Unfortunately it was hit right at the centerfielder. I guess you can play safe and go station to station and hope you can put enough hits together. Arod could've just as easily hit into a double play without the steal. 

Borba makes it look easy.

That's Casey Borba's fourth home run of the week.

A two-run shot into Yeti Yard makes it a 5-0 lead for the Longhorns.

Man Borba is having a season so far, dude is on a heater an so is APJ!

Casey Borba has been absolutely unreal lately.

Texas playing like people stopped believing in them after they dropped game one😂 This fanbase would never

His last two weeks have been spectacular.

Wil Libbert stays on the mound for Ole Miss in a 5-0 game, but the Rebels have bodies up in the bullpen.
