A one-out RBI double by Galloway makes it a 9-6 game.

Ethan Walker is on the mound for Texas. Texas State has a runner on second with one out.

This experiment with Ethan Walker needs to end.

Wow that was bad outing again.   Almost got two outfielders knocked out.  Come on, someone step up 

Are these outfielders just ready to go out and party or what? Also walker meet transfer portal lol.

Ethan Walker needs to find another hobby, baseball is not for him.

gotta be very hard for college baseball coaches with NIl and the draft to have a deep roster,  pitching and hitting

NIL may make it easier.  Pitching and hitting both need live, game reps.  Those are limited.  Many teams only start 9/10 capable guys then only run 11/12 deep for guys that actually hit.  

Pitching is similar in that maybe 10-12 guys get decent innings.

With the portal for baseball players there’s less incentive to sit as a frosh.  It’s too easy to transfer and too important to sit a year.

At least with NIL, you can theoretically pay guys for the opportunity to maybe crack the lineup.  Otherwise, it’s difficult to keep them riding the pine to develop.

You know it’s bad when you have to break out crossland to shut down big bad Texas state 😂😂😂 No more mid week games please and thank you.

After allowing two runs on three consecutive doubles, Walker is out of the game.

Brett Crossland is out of the bullpen with a runner on second and one out.

There’s no way Walker is SEC level, right? Throwing 85 right down the middle is not gonna cut it

The runner on second base scored after advancing to third on a passed ball. But Crossland got back-to-back groundouts to get out of the inning.

M7: Texas 9, Texas State 8

Location is everything for low velo guys. If the ball is up and doesn’t sink, it can be ugly.

End of 7: Texas 9, Texas State 8

Rather them get a single than walk a runner every time.  Put it over the plate . 

Crossland is trying to work around a one-out single.

One of the worst swings ive ever seen

 

M8: Texas 9, Texas State 8

 

BOOM! SOLO HOMER FOR DOZA!

Mendoza’s leadoff home run in the bottom of the eighth gives Texas a 10-8 lead.

 

 

Back-to-back strikeouts by Tinney and Robbins. Two down in the bottom of the eighth.

Pack grounds out to end the inning.
