Texas Baseball Updates
Hmmmm... I guess it was only a matter of time before they stuck a corporate sponsor in the name of Disch-Falk Field. Now it is UFCU Disch-Falk Field. You can read about that here. With a little more info about the renovations planned.
As for former Longhorns doing well in the pros, probably the most notable is Huston Street. He's been named AL Rookie of the Year by Sporting News and is a front-runner for the actual American League Rookie of the Year award from the league itself. He was the MVP at the College World Series in 2002, his freshman year. And, I stalked his dad, James Street, at this years College World Series in June. :-) (His twin brothers, Juston and Jordon are currently on the team) I'm betting most of my friends that read this don't know why I would stalk James Street, other than the fact that his son, young enough to be my son, is a hottie! James was a star quarterback and pitcher for UT in the late 60's. If the term were available at the time, I believe my mother would have referred to James as a "hottie" back then. Orange blood runs deep. I am counting down the days! The first game of the season is usually the first weekend in February.
