 Series Thread - Vs. Georgia Southern
Pretty important series in San Marcos this weekend vs. the Eagles.
TXST is currently 9-9 in conference play and would be the 8th seed if the season ended today. GS would be the 5th seed. The SBC tourney has an odd format that rewards higher seeds. 11 and 12 don't make the tournament and 7-10 play in single elimination play-in games to meet the top 6 who get byes into the double elimination portion of the tournament. It's important to get a top 6 seed. We're also still only 1.5 games out of first place in the west. 1st place in each division is guaranteed a top 2 seed regardless of record, and it looks like there may be 3 teams in the east that finish higher than the west champ. A west division championship isn't out of the question for TXST yet.
Fraze will start Fridays game at 6pm. Reich will start Saturdays at 4pm. TBA for Sunday at noon. Engle has been in this spot in the rotation but has had back-to-back awful starts the past two weeks.

An 8th inning "Jack" by Ortega allows the Cats to take game 1.
Chance to win the series tomorrow . . .

 Re: Series Thread - Vs. Georgia Southern
Fraze pitched a pretty good game today. B 3rd, with the help of some Eagle errors, we take a 3-1 lead . . . then kinda cruise til the 7th. Eagles make it 3-2, Ty goes to the pen, relief guy immediately gives up a 3 run jack. 5-3 Eagles. B 8th, we manage to tie it up at 6. Game goes into extras, where we lose in 11, 7-6.
Shame too, as LR lost to App earlier in the day, UTA also lost . . Coulda made up some ground.
Rubber game tomorrow, still have a chance to win the series.

 Re: Series Thread - Vs. Georgia Southern
Last 4 of the last 5 losses have involved us giving up double digits. Not going to win many like that. I was at the game Saturday and we got a good starting effort but the pen had issues. I havent attended as many games this year but it reminded me so much of last year.

 Re: Series Thread - Vs. Georgia Southern
We finish April with a less than stellar 7-10 record. Most teams seem to progress as the season goes on (the good ones I mean).
I don't get why we seem to "regress" as the season goes on. . . Doh, answered my own observation . . . .
It ain't easy being a Bobcat Fan.
