1-1 through the top of the 5th.

Ricky pitched two innings giving up 1 run... Jefferies has pitched three scoreless since.. Nice!

RBI double by Dane makes it 2-1 Rice.

And 2 RBI single by Dom makes it 4-1 Owls!

Kendall has looked good so far. If this team can just get decent pitching at all consistently then the season can turn around. This group can hit the baseball.

Unfortunately, Gametracker isn't working.

One out, one on for Stanford.. Orweiler warming up. Pleaseee no.

Men on first and second, one out.

Orweiler in for the Owls.

Could get interesting here, folks!

Bases juiced after Orweiler walks the first batter he faces...

Go-ahead run at the plate.

Otto in to face Brodie with bases loaded.

Sac Fly for Stanford brings one in.

4-2 Rice, runners at the corners. 2 outs.

Otto gets a strike out on a pitch that got by Dicaprio and throws to first to nab the guy.

4-2 Rice, going to B7.

Heck of a play. The pitch was high and inside and went all the way to the wall. DiCaprio's hustled back to get there, but his throw was to the infield side of the bag -- the video announcer said it went over the batter, Diekroeger, at the bag. Our first baseman made a fabulous stretch to make the catch and putout. The Stanford runner from 3rd had already crossed the plate, so that catch saved a run. Kudos and Whew!!

Two out rally going in B7.
DiCaprio single, Proctor singled him to 3rd. Two on two out.

Wunderlich with the three run blast and it's 7-2 Rice!

3 run HR for Dayne! 7-2 Owls!

... and Wundrlich with the 3 run Dinger!!!
7-2 Rice!!

Wunderlich hits a line shot to deep left field. Stanford's Stowers races back, back, back -- BANG! -- the wall gets in the way! 3-run dinger for Dayne! WooHoo!!

7-2, Rice.

If you're scoring at home I think that looks like 4 3-run shots by the same guy in the same inning!!!

Umpires review and determine that only one of the four count.

7-2 Owls going to T8.

Bases loaded for DiCaprio ... opposite field double down the right-field line, just fair. Two runs score.

9-2, Rice. New pitcher coming in, a left-hander ... John Henry Stiles, from the Houston area: Bellaire native and Episcopal grad. His family hosted the Cardinal team for a post-arrival dinner on Wednesday.

2-RBI single for Proctor!

11-2 ... WooHoo!!

Wunderlich smashes an RBI double to the left-center wall. He needs just a single for the cycle.

But he won't get it, because the 10-run rule halts the game.


Rice wins!! 12-2. WooHoo!
