At BYU Thurs-Sat

[Chairman of the Board]

This is on Kenny and Eberle...going to Kutz was a give up, and it failed miserably. This team should NEVER lose when it scores 8 runs

 

[H2Orange]

I wonder how much of our struggles can be attributed to the lack of experience in our coaching staff.

ehh, Aycock had already given up 4 runs in a couple innings and Kutz looked better than Aycock against Tulsa so not sure I agree that it was a give up. Did it work -- no, not this time.

Two games in, and still no sign of Ivy Rosenberry this weekend.

If she comes in before Aycock can give up 5 runs, or after, we win.

I think that's an excellent question.

We punted on this game….kenny said we ain’t pitching our seniors…Aycock just hasn’t made the jump yet. Kutz simply isn’t read yet and that’s okay. She threw well against an average TU squad. Both gave up grand slams throwing down the middle. Youth continues to show itself and not in a good way

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Kenny on postgame:

"We just didn't pitch well enough. We were a tick better at the plate, but we're still giving away too many at bats among our experienced players."

 

[Stilly2OMAOKC]

Like the Baylor series, you flush this one and come out tomorrow to win the series.

Winning a series is nice but when you are looking to win the Big 12 or host a regional can’t have 2-2 weeks. Got to get get sweeps to keep pace with OU.

 

[Stilly2OMAOKC]

Would still expect to host a regional with our record and SOS

Keeping pace with OU is a different story and would require OU to actually lose a few games but I get your point

We're still in good shape overall. Can't have too many more weeks like this though.

Just a bad trend. I just want to see our best 9 and best arms out there.

Kenny's teams seem to have a huge letdown each year against teams they should dominate--but they also always bounce back.

 

[Cowboy4life9688]

Still think we’ll host but I’m not sure we’ll be a top 8 national seed with the way we’re playing. Losing to BYU and TU doesn’t help either

The big weekends are still ahead. Can't lose today though.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Same lineup as yesterday for OSU

BYU pitching Mares, who we faced in the first game.

T1
Davis grounds out to SS
Edwards doubles off wall in RCF. Great AB
Godwin singles to CF, RBI
Wang 2 run HR to RF
Timm grounds out to SS
Wark flies out to CF

3 runs, 3 hits

Nice start. Everyone, except maybe Timm, took a good swing at a good pitch to hit. Strike zone is small.

 

[Stilly2OMAOKC]

Great start!

 

[Stilly2OMAOKC]

Hopefully this little bit of adversity during week will only help young players and team grow

 

[Chairman of the Board]

B1
HBP
Walk, ugh.
--Eberle out as Rosenberry frustrated. Zone is so small
Soft lineout to 2B on that stupid check swing. I hate that girl. Just sayin.
Line drive caught by Rosenberry. Twice Godwin hasn't been at first for the DP
Groundout to 2B, nice play by Rosie

Ivy escapes some trouble. This is going to be a long game with a strike zone like this.

3-0 OSU

 

[Chairman of the Board]

I'd like to see the bottom of our order really force Mares to throw into the tiny zone.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

T2
David pops out on a bunt to C
Bloodworth lines out hard to LF
Anderson singles up the middle. She's making the most of her chance
--caught stealing

Or not so much
