Hooray for Baseball
Ah, yes. It's here. UT baseball played its 6th game tonight against the Rice Owls at Minute Maid Park in Houston. (on TV, yay!) Part of the Houston Astros College Classic. This is the year of lots of new faces. We lost starters at Catcher, 2nd, Short, and 3rd coming into this season. Pretty much the whole infield. And tonight the new STAR was a freshman from Magnolia, Texas, named Kyle Russell. Texas went ahead 3-1 in the 5th inning. Rice went ahead 4-3 in the top of the 9th... and in true Texas Longhorn heart attack fashion... with 2 outs, bottom of the 9th, runner at first... on the 0-1 pitch.... PING! Home run! He hadn't played the whole game, and has only been at bat for UT one time before. Gotta love that Augie Ball. (*) Texas is 3-3 on the season, having blown it in their opening 3 game seris in San Diego. Glad I didn't go... what a disappointment.
What's killing me is they don't have any weekend home games until the 24th of February! Hopefully it will warm up by then. It's c-o-o-o-o-o-o-ld today!
And woe is me, all I have is a stinky bed-hoggin' Beagle to keep me warm tonight. Ben and the Nooner boys are rockin' Kerrville.

*Sorry Mom. I felt you grumbling on that one - but seriously. You'd have to love him now! He's won 2 Nat'l Championships :-) (My mother was a die hard "Gusball" fan)
