The Fowler guys probably stopped after GT planted the giant pine trees in right blocking their view.

I rushed Kappa Sig back in the day. They said the view of the game from their porch used to be fantastic…

My Teke brothers and I went to just about all the games.

I remember sitting in the old wooden bleachers on beautiful spring days. Great memories.

Taking a quick look at the box score:

OK - in the final six inning, they used 2 relievers who gave up 2 hits and 0 runs
Tech - in the final six, I think we used 7 arms, gave up 13 hits and 10 runs. Bummer

Gotta' show the fortitude we've pretty much had all year and come back strong tomorrow. Go Jackets!

That was lame, but oh well gonna move on to tomorrow.

Who do you think starts, and what is our order of relievers to bring in?

I think Patel, Ballard, and Loy are the 3 you try to ride with tomorrow. My gut says just go ahead and start Patel so you didn't leave anything unused. Be a shame to bring him in the first time all regional already down and never recover.

OU is in trouble for pitching tomorrow. They've had heavy pitch counts on their best pitchers and didn't even get started until Saturday. My biggest concern is if they start today's starter again out of desperation and he suddenly figures it all out. Otherwise, I don't think they can rely on anyone except the relievers from Saturday night to try to piece together 9 innings. We can still win it if we can move on mentally.

Good point on Patel. I think I’d rather start someone else on an extremely short leash (like as short as OU’s starter had tonight) in hopes that we can get some length (and a lead) and save Patel for his typical stopper/long relief/closer all-in-one role.

Oklahoma pitch counts for the weekend and rest for Monday:
Wesloski - 105 (0 days rest)
L Mercurius 46 + 59 = 105 (0 days rest)
X Mercurius - 100 (1 day rest)
Rager - 82 (1 day rest)
Cleveland - 65 (0 days rest)
Jones - 37 (0 days rest)
Bixby - 32 (1 day rest)
Johnson -12 (0 days rest)
Hensley - 14 (0 days rest)
Barfield - 12 (0 days rest)

Anyone else has less than 16 pitches and has had at least one day of rest and should be fully available.
