End of 2: Tigahs 1, No Horns 0

 

Coleman not getting the corners and Texas hitting some long outs but still can't get the big hits. Ump has a small strike zone. We need to take advantage of that.

LSU 1
Texas zip

 

LSU 3rd:
Nola singled to RF.
LeMahieu sac bunt moved Nola to 2nd.
Schimpf caught looking.
Dean popped up to 2B in CF.

LSU 1, Texas 0 - Bottom 3rd

 

He looks a little inconsistent on the corner calls. That 2nd strike to Schimpf was outside and it was called a ball on the Texas batter.

 

Coleman needs to get better control. The Texas pitcher has been on target.

 

Lots of 2-0 counts. I'n surprised Texas isn't looking at more 3rd pitches.

 

Even though we have that early homer, Ruffin isn't pitching that bad...he's got a few SO's already. Coleman is doing alright so far, but I'm scared one of those would-be long outs will eventually be a homerun soon if he isn't careful.

 

Texas 3rd:
Struck out swinging.
Popped up to Nola at 2B (He had to drift over and made it look a lot more difficult than it should have been--should have been LeMahieu's ball).
Lined out to 2B.

End 3: LSU 1, Texas 0
