Saturday baseball vs FAU game thread
Time to turn this $&@" around.

To the tune of "Who are You" by The Who:

FAU
Who who, who who?
FAU
Who who, who who?
We're playing FAU
FAU
Hoo hoo, hoo hoo!
Yeah they're the Owls, too!
FAU
Oo oo, oo oo

Yeah we woke up in the conference basement
But the pundits knew our name
They said you can get this back on track
If you can keep those walks away

We staggered back to the dugout
But the breeze carried out to right
I remember throwin' pitches around
Too many errors sapped our fight.

But who are you?
FAU
Who who, who who?

We took the stick in our hands
And dug our heels in
We finally strung some hits together
And it led to a nice win

We stretched back but not too long
Cause even if it's a good day
Eleven games under .500
Yeah there's got to be a better way

So FAU
You you, you you
Are gonna lose
FAU
Hoo hoo, hoo hoo
Ah who the hoot are you
FAU
You're really gonna lose
I really hope you lose
Cmon help us FAU
You hoo ah U!

And it's Dom's 20th birthday today. Hopefully, he has a big game in store for us.

Dom could new thru on his birthday. RBI single makes it 1-0 in T1.

Brad had doubled to lead off. Ground ball moved him to 3B. After Dane Ked, Dom gets a big 2 out hit.

Rice makes it 3-0 in T 4 on HBP, error, Sac Fly.

Sounds like a Rice defensive inning from earlier this year.

Edit: No, just inspiring the Rice Owls to show the FAU Owls how it's really done. Walk, single, double, walk, sac fly, PB, single, pitching change.

Now that's how you do it!

3-3.

Owl meltdown on both the field and audio-visual streams:

B7:

HBP, Wild pitch, RBI double ties it up at 4. Runner takes 3rd on yet another WP! Grrr, But that's all Rice allows. Whew!

Can't see it, though, as the FAU/CUSA-TV video stream has stopped. Error message says something wrong with the server.

Meanwhile, the Rice audio is overlaying continuous advertisements concurrently with JP's play-by-play. SMH!

It's incredible that no one in charge seems to be watching these broadcast snafus and gets them corrected pronto.

Video is back.

T8: Rice loads the bases with two outs (both Ks) -- two 1-out singles and a 2-out walk -- but Warren grounds into a 6-3 inning ending out.

Still tied 4-4 ... heading to B8.
