Game 35: Texas at Kansas State
That was an ugly ugly ugly game. Ugly. Texas won, though. So, I guess that's something. Final score: 10-9 in 10 innings.
It just ended and I was having a tough time coming up with anything good to say about it. But, I do have three things:
- Randy Boone. He was great. I'm glad he's back. He does seem to have the right make-up for a closer.
- Carson Kainer. He continues to amaze me. He played a great game in the field and a great game at the plate. After doing the same in the first two games of the series.
- The Texas half of the 6th. After giving up 4 runs, the Horns came right back and scored 4 of their own. 'Course, Carson Kainer drove in that 4th run. Yay, Carson!
Coach Garrido's post-game comments on the radio (after a very long conversation with the team in the field after the game): (1) the team changed gears once the 6th inning started; (2) the Horns really did out-battle KSU; (3) the team went backwards a little bit today but that's how growth and progress take place; and (4) the up-coming home stretch will be a great chance to show more improvement.
That's it. I'm tired. I'll be back later. Not necessarily today. Later, though. Hook 'em!
