I wasn't ever sure I would find myself not liking a player more than Jack O'Dowd but fucking A Borba is so easy to hate.

Defensive liability, offensively inconsistent and a base running moron.

Borba hits Borbombs at least.

I do love a good Borba bomb. This team needs to find its power again. We don't hit for average, but at least we generally have hit for extra bases and bombs. Those feel like they've really dried up the last 3 or 4 weeks.

CDC probably gonna get a lot of tweets. I bet he's on it for the next game. 

They f'd up and double sold for the HS softball.  They had to stop people coming in to get softball folks out randomly to the I-35 exit.  worst clusterfuck I have seen and that includes football.   It wasn't too many people it is the screw up on the garage pass sales.  which will be the same tomorrow.

I hope Borba tears it up for Abilene Christian or somebody next season. Hook em

At least one of three is true if Borba returns next season ..

1.  Daddy is a mega donor.

2.  He has incriminating pix.

3.  He gets a brain transplant .. not a replacement .. a brain.

In this game?

That inning, sure. But we have done well on the base paths this game.

Excepting the Bo Jackson gun down from Right field  and the goofy walk across that should have been an out from left.

Was the Mendoza play at the plate called correctly? HCU dork behind me wouldn't shut up about it.

You tell him TexArcher said to shut the fuck up.

The baserunning in this game has been atrocious. This guy can't find the zone and we are running and leading off to get picked off. Schloss needs to wake this team up. 

Atrocious? We had 4 steals.

Not including the Borba dipshittery (who - while we're piling on - is apparently a "jackass" from a kid that knows him) we were fine. And Jonah is an absolute menace (granted when he broke that kid's collar bone he should have been thrown out).

Not sure. He looked totally fine though. Spent a lot of the later innings messing around tossing balls back and forth with kids over by the dugout. By the end of the game there were like 25 kids over there trying to get a ball from him. 

Seems like a really cool dude.

If it was softball, the HCU 2B probably would have been called for obstruction.  (I partially kid .. but, that’s how ridiculous I think softball officiating has become.)

Agreed; electic without the dipshittery.

He was out, but it was very, very close.

Great game by the Tuesday pitching staff. We have now matched the 2024 team by winning the opening game of the Regional.

Get 'em tomorrow and do better.

Huh???

For defense, I'm guessing

The 2024 team won their opening game of their regional. Then they lost twice. And the season ended.

The 2025 team has now gone as far as the 2024 team did. Hopefully they exceed them by winning tomorrow.

Team need to get some tips from South Austin's mom about not drying up.

We made one play in left-field all game (actually two because we had to cover for Borba fucking up that liner past 3rd).

I figured it was Sark making the call after it was obvious that we weren't losing.

TMG does not understand correct English. He just corrects bad English.

I honestly have no idea what the number of plays out there has to do with the decision. Do you honestly think the coach would go "Well, they don't seem to be hitting the ball to left field today, so I won't worry about it"?

I don't think Jonah got pulled because of his inability to cover left against some dogshit HCU team.

If Tommy Farmer comes in the game late it’s for his defense 

Y'all are probably right I'm just saying it was immaterial today and it's a two-sport player that we're talking about. Who had already had a collision at 2B.

I agree but Schloss probably wanted to get him an at bat too

I mean that was my thought. Schloss wanted to get everyone a little work. 

Jonah was so sick today. He should start in LF for us the rest of the way.

Then he would have pinch hit with Famer when Jonah made the last out before he exited the game

Walker and Hudson emerging after throwing damn near no innings this season.

I didn’t understand why we took out walker when we did unless we were just unwilling to let him give up a 0-0 lead. Their contact against him was absolutely pathetic and they had no business having 2 runners on with 2 outs. 

Later, on 2nd base, Jonah was either attempting to relay signs to Galvan at the plate or just faking it. His helmet grab signal didn’t appear to be consistently correct but he did it at least 3 times. Maybe being an asshole is part of Jonah’s game. 

Who did Max’s liner into our dugout hit?

Jonah’s slide into 2nd was so shitty and unnecessary. If you can eject a baserunner, he should’ve been ejected. He rolled his body to slide high. Its hard to recall a dirtier slide as a Texas fan. 

The team not signaling Mendoza to slide into the plate was really frustrating. Clutch moment in the game, completely blown.

We weren’t doing the little things right. Can’t play like this moving forward. 

Saunier does all you can ask, and he’s removed with 2 runner on also, at like 55 pitches, as if that’s the automatic pitching change rule.

Thankfully Hudson was nails, setting us up for the weekend.
