The starting lineup for those who dare...

Quote:Rice linup: Stainback SS, Stringer 2B, Cook LF, Ratterree RF, Hoelscher 3B, Aquino DH, Perrott C, Byrd CF, Teykl 1B, McCanna P. 6:30 start.

Back to back singles to start things off. 2 on, no outs.

Cook grounds out advancing the runners.

Ratteree singles scoring 2 runs !!

Way to go Rat!

3-0, Rice. Still in the 1st.

Ratteree advances to second on a failed pickoff.

Hoelscher singles scoring Ratteree!!

It's been said that we are too negative. I'm throwing in a dancing banana:

End of the inning. 3 runs on 4 hits. 3-0 Rice.

TSU gets a hit, but the inning ends with 0 runs.

3-0 Rice. Top of the second.

Quick inning for Kevin, 3-0 through 1.

Let's see if we can get enough posts to turn around some of that "lost interest in Rice baseball" sentiment that was floating around earlier.

Any idea if Shane still is sometimes called "frosty Crawdad"?

TSU gives up their second error, moving Tekyl to 1B. Stainback singles - runners on 1B and 2B with 1 out.Go Owls!

I've lost interest in watching us lose. That's why I keep watching and listening. I keep thinking we are going to win.

DP to end the inning. 3-0 end of 3rd

Byrd HBP, Teykl SAC, Byrd advances to 2nd.

Stainback FC, Byrd tagged out btwn 2 & 3. Stainback to 2nd. 2 outs

String BB, 2 on for Cook

Klutch Cook up -- pitching change (lefty Morrow - 6'5" 190# stringbean) -- F6

We seem to be stuck on three runs. Here's hoping TX St. stays on 0 runs.

B4, two ground outs,
2 out single
2 out single, 2 on
Another single, RBI, runners on 2 and 3
Another single, 2 RBI's, tie game
WG to the mound

So much for that hope. 3-3 in the bottom of the fourth.

4 consecutive 2-out singles and we're all tied up at 3-3. McCanna has been pitching solidly, but it's puzzling that he's unable to induce swings and misses. He's just not missing bats.

Crap. I step away for a little bit and it is 3-3 when I get back. Noooo
