Happy Easter everyone!

Owls take the early lead 1-0 in the 1st.

Sounds like a happy one so far! Keep it up, Rice!

Owls pick up an unearned run in the 4th. 2-0 Owls going to 5th.

Eagles try to give us an out. We'll have nothing of it. Give them a 4-pitch walk to load the bases instead. Grrrr.

Yep. Bases loaded to start the B5.

HBP, single, walk.

Then E6. Now 2-1 and still no outs.

And the charity continues. E6!!! "Everybody's safe and Guidry came in to score."

Meltdown in progress

Pitching change. Kravetz in.

3-2 for 1st out. Need to roll 2 now.

Kravetz induces another 3-2. 2 outs.

Grand slam clears the bases. 5-2 USM.

You are the last Rice fan using “grr”. The rest just whine.

Do you know the difference between a Rice fan and a puppy?


Eventually, the puppy stops whining.

Excellent plays on hard-hit grounders by Sarchet and Comeaux to get forceouts at the plate.

2 down now.

And Kravetz's luck runs out. 1-1 pitch hammered over the CF wall. Grand slam.

5-2, USM. GRRRR!!!!

Grand slam by Wallner.

First-pitch pop up to CF ... Chandler eases in ... but doesn't see the can of corn ... it lands 10 feet in front of him. Double.

GRRR - Grrr. (Double Grrr, for OO.)

Another pitching change.

(Whine)

2-2 Wild Pitch (curve in the dirt, low and outside, bounced over the catcher's glove). Then a walk.

why a pitching change after a clear misplayed ball but not the grand slam? Clueless

Did they really just catch us sleeping on a double steal with two outs. Clueless situational awareness if so (I’m following it on Gametracker).

Another head-scratcher.

2-2 pitch is low in the dirt. Runner goes. Collins throws it!! WTH?? And it glances off our pitcher!! Runner from 3rd trots home. Such generosity.

Next pitch is hit to Sarchet for a routine 3U putout.

6-2, USM ... after 5.

Eventually, the puppy stops whining.

Eventually, the fans quit showing up.

Eventually?

We're past that point. Can't be more than 300 butts-in-seats for an Owl home game that doesn't involve A&M, TCU or likely Sam this Tuesday.
