What goes well with crawfish ?

Will be checking in from MIL's. Bring home the win. Go Owls.

Abita or Pinot Noir?

Who again is George Stephens?

The Icehouse has neither. Looks like Lite for me :-(

Go with something hoppy.

Not sure about George Stephens, but George Stevens was a pretty famous director (and his son George Stevens Jr. is also pretty well known).

11-0 Rice, bottom of fourth. Ryan Chandler already has 4 AB's in 4 innings. This is (hopefully) one of those games in which we can empty the bench a bit.

JP likes to call Jordan, George for some reason. Drives me crazy, but needs to be added to the drinking game.

You saved me the effort of typing this exact same thing.
I might resist the temptation to roll out an ELO song each game now as long as we keep winning.
No relation to Sagarin's ELO chess, by the way...

Giving up those HR's...

If that is what it takes...

Baggett Vance??

Update? Just tuning in. Reeves with two dingers? When's the last time we had an Owl with two roundtrippers in a game (not named Anthony Rendon)? Is Fox starting a new streak today? Don't bring me down, Bruce! I mean, Blake.

Score?

13-5 final

Aaron Luna hit HRs in his first three at bats as an Owl (over two games, iirc).

Connor Teykl with an even more difficult feat (especially for someone with his lack of speed-- 3 extrabase hits (2 triples, double).

Unfortunately, save for Reeves (2 hits), Stainback (2 hits), Warren (3 hits) and Teykl (3 hits), the rest of the lineup continued their recent slump. Leon, in particular, is now in an extend 3+ week funk.

Leave it to Walt to complain about hitting in a 13 run, 11 hit game.

Àre you serious? This team is on the edge of pathetic, so one game doesn't change that!!

The rest of the roster did get 6 BB, a hit, a SH, and 2 HBP.
