21 of the 27 outs recorded were K's. Thats pretty dominating. Thing is---Texas pitcher was very good as well.
Baseball is about winning games
Pitching can only last so long. One guy is hot. Cannot impact the game as much as multiple guys
It is about how many guys do you have that can throw up zeros.
Had one today who didn’t. Made the switch quick.
Tennessee did after it was too late
Make up your mind...
Anyways...21/27 outs via the striukeout is a dominating performance.
I agree....Just one game. But in that one game, they were dominated by Miss St pitching. Which is all that was being said...Not sure why thats so difficult for you to say/admit. Tip your cap to the kid, and move on...With that being said---tough to advance to finals losing game one....Texas will have to beat either UVA or Miss St, twice. TOugh task.
Don't particularly care
Regarding the rest. Texas still has a lot of pitchers to throw
All pitchers capable of throwing shutdown innings.
Miss State has already ran out of pitching it looks like
Of course you "don't care". If it were Texas who had fanned 21/27, you'd be all over it...But I get it.
You are putting to much into pitching....TX, TN and Vandy---All three Top 10 in team ERA....TX and Vandy both have one loss, and TN has been eliminated.
Not really....But their bats have woke up. No-hit through 7---Have dropped a 5 spot so far, in the 8th. Not to mention, vs a team who's pitching staff was ranked 12th nationally in ERA...
TX has thrown their stud---Stevens(vs Tenn), 58 pitches...Then threw Witt, 78 pitches. Hansen only threw 26 vs MSU. So you can probably run him back out----But what if its State? I'd say Witt and Madden are out until Fri....maybe Sat?
Anyways...TX staff was dominated by Madden , Stevens and Hansen. Only Hansen I'd say is available for Thursday---Which is a really good option. Texas staff is deep. BUT....when you lose that fiurst game, its starts to put stress on your staff. I'd venture to say that Hansen starts Thursday...If he's not sharp, gets bounced early, not sure who TCX leans on...Kubicheck?
Man that was tough to watch for McGarry. Needed more run support in the earlier innings. Too many bunts and poor execution with runners on 3rd. Not sure how we beat Texas and MSU twice but we are 6-0 in elimination games this postseason
Pete Hansen has a career ERA below 2.00
Give him another year where he can add a few mph on his fastball could be the #1 starter in college baseball
Best pitcher to count on
Career 11-1 with a 1.5 ERA
Not even to his peak

Then Cole Quintanilla who can be extended.
Guy can be unhittable
Throws hard with movement
Aaron Nixon. Look at his lower body. Only a true freshman
Earned the name El Cobra pitching down in the Lower Rio Grande Valley
Same HS as Miss State assistant Jake Gautreau. McAllen, TX

Gonna need them....Have to beat UVA, then Miss St twice.
Good luck with that.
That is why Texas is unbeaten when they score 5 runs or more.
Getting to the back end of the pitchers now
So far Texas hasn’t had to use much pitching
Baseball is a crazy game....I worked Semi-State final couple weeks back. Team was being no-hit through 4 innings...And I mean, simly getting overpowered. Then, trailing 4-0 in bottom of 5th, they erupt for 7 runs...capped off by a two-out, grand slam. That team just own the State title tonight.
Your dude was filth. But.....even with the no-no, I thought O'Connor stayed with him to long...MSU started squaring a lot balls up in the later innings. They hit about 3-4 balls really hard---just so happened, they hit'em right at UVA. THought he should have pulled him a tad quicker.
Thsts about to change....And they have used Witt, Stevens and Madden..Witt/Stevens vs TN....58/78 pitches. Madden opened the series vs MSU, throwing 100+ pitches. Probably gonna have to rely on some arms, that they are not used to doing so..
If any staff can muster this, its TX. But its gonna be tough. UVA has some capable arms...And so does MSU. WHoever survives your game, is gonna have a tough task.
Idk it seems there have been some very dominating pitching performances. Even leiter in a loss was phenomenal, but ya cant win if ya dont score so u def have a point. I haven’t seen todays scores, i know stanford-zona was a slugfest, but seems to benlost of low scoring games so far. Id say the pitxhing has been better than the hitting so far, but it usually is in postseason baseball.
Texas could have more this week after Thursday
Would be their 87th CWS win. Push their lead even more
Man....baseball can be so cruel....Down to your last out. Walk,,,base hit, wild throw sends runner to third...base hit---tie game. Wild pitch----Walk'em off. All this with you down to your last strike.
That was much worse than the UVA loss last night. Feel bad for that pitcher Beck
Vanderbilt has had a crazy CWS so far.
We will see with NC State. Just as long as they can get into that winner take all game things should be alright
But Friday will be interesting

Vandy plays nc state and has to beat them twice
UVA/Texas winner will play Miss State and will have to beat them twice
Best case scenario for Texas is they can get Hansen out after 75 pitches and throw Wenzel, Lucas Gordon and Jared Southard
All 3 are capable pitchers but it saves Texas Quintanilla and Nixon then allow Pete Hansen the ability to pitch in 3 days
Most logical scenario that would for Texas is that Pete Hansen can go 7 and then they can use Quintanilla for 2
Pete Hansen is a classic lefty. Similar to a Cole Hammels
Every time he has touched the ball for Texas he has put up a lot of zeros
Either two things will happen. UVa self destructs. I see this as extremely unlikely
Or
We will have a close low scoring ball game

Thanks when your team always loses the first two or 2 of the first three every tine weve been to omaha such things are trivial.
Go Hoos. Goooooo dip and dots!!!!!
They are talking about Faltine as a future major league shortstop
Elite defender. From Richmond, TX. Dad coaches baseball so he was around the game his entire life
Now running around with Tulo

No offense to Tulo bc he was obv a great player, but no way he ever wins a gold glove if he wasnt a great hitter as well. That surprises me that he has two.
Gold gloves are pretty ridiculous in that regards imo. Seems like they give it to the best all around players moreso than just purely basing it on defense.

Don’t remember the SS in the National League at the time.
Tulo went to Long Beach St without the ability to hit. That college spot came because he could play defense
Had a cannon for an arm. Tell how he position himself around the baseball he was reading to unload a throw
Vastly underrated baseball player. Injuries did him in. Had a peak for a few years where he was without a doubt the best all around SS
What you are complaining about has changed because the game has changed. Advance statistics for defensive players.

Congrats to NCSU, Vandy, MSU and Texas for making the Final Four of the CWS. Proud of UVA for making the CWS after the way the season started but that loss to MSU cost us a legit shot at another national championship. Future is bright though.
I wasnt meaning he was terrible at D by any means. Im a dodgers fan so i saw alot of him. Its hard for me to remember the NL SS at the time either, and he was undoibtedly one of the best all around. I just dont think of his game being centered around his D, but maybe bc he was a great hitter as well.
Im just saying usually there are guys that are insane at D that bat .200 and that hurts their odds at a gold glove which should be purely based on defense imo.
my point wasnt to take shots a tulo, just saying hes in a long list of guys who won gold gloves bc of their bat, which is an argument for another day.
