Frustrating night for the bats. Reminds me of the Dodgers series.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Not a coincidence that both of those BPs are elite.

Paredes worked his tail off for that chance and our offense just cannot reward him.

No idea why he put Toro in to pinch hit in that situation.

4.7% chance of being skunked 7 in 10 tries. You can't try and do this.

Because TED Ks too often and they bunted to 3rd so they wanted contact to get him home. I see his reasoning it's just ****ing dumb.

Agreed. I didn't feel good the bottom half of the inning last inning, but they definitely had their chances.

Just get it to our better hitters, please.

I'll take the threat of the long ball or long fly out over a guy who has really struggled at the plate.

Yep. I'd have left him in for this inning, but what do I know.

I said this after we lost the long game vs LAD, these rookies are being thrown into the fire. They're development is hitting wrap speed. We're going to appreciate this next year and the year after.

For a guy going all out (not pacing himself) pushing it to 50+ pitches probably isn't a good idea for a young arm.

Agreed.

Sometimes I'd wish we'd try to manufacture some runs in certain situations to relieve some pressure on them.
