Game Thread: Houston vs. North Carolina Take 2 (L 19-11)

Top 7th

Leadoff single for Lockhart. Double for Davis scores Lockhart…Heels lead 11-6

1 out single by Coldiron moves Davis to 3rd. That’ll be it for Daniels, Joey Lancellotti on to pitch.

Sac fly on a great diving catch scores Davis…Heels lead 11-7

Ron Brown to pinch hit for Lovelace. Coogs get nothing else.

M7…UNC leads 11-7

Put a Tulane on’em Coogs.

why pitch hit with Brown. SMH

That catch by the CF was amazing.

Why Ron Brown

Definitely. Tough for the Coogs as that probably scores Coldiron and Minter ends up on 2nd or 3rd with 1 out.

Bottom 7th

Bartlett in to Catch.

Leadoff infield single. Followed by a homer…Heels lead 13-7

Bond done. Ott on.

1-out HBP. Stolen base. Single scores another run…Heels lead 14-7

2-out single puts runners on the corners. They’re left stranded.

T8…UNC leads 14-7

No idea on why Brown was in. Lovelace has been hitting well over the last couple of weeks. Guess they were trying to catch lightning in a bottle twice with the freshmen.

I’m assuming that Redden isn’t coming back since he wasn’t the replacement at catcher.

They just keep answering. Our lack of pitching depth showing

Pitching and fielding did us in today.

Lovelace probably just worn out. Not a big fellow to begin with and a lot of time behind the plate today.

Aguilar’s injury was a real kick in the nuts; looked so promising. Hoping he can come back next year, but, if it is TJ surgery, may be the following year before we see him.

Villarreal’s performance after his injury makes me think he’s not completely healthy either. Just hasn’t looked like the same guy.

Just couldn’t find any other consistent arms. A little worrisome for next year with Cumbie, Fletcher, Pulido, and Ott all leaving.

Very very worrisome.

Got hope JUCO arms come through

Are Champion, Slaughter, Redden in the doghouse. All would have been a better pitch hitter.

I’m hearing Aguilar will be ready in the spring. Hope so

The pitcher from San Jac supposedly has a big-time arm. Hope he doesn’t get drafted next week and sign

Roedahl? He definitely looks good. Isn’t wild either. With you, hope he makes it in.

Not sure on Champion; think they wanted power in that situation though and were hoping Brown would connect.

Slaughter…no idea his situation.

Redden is probably gone since he didn’t replace Lovelace in the Bottom of the inning.

Has Pettit shown any signs of being able to make it back

Top 8th

Leadoff single by Bielo. Padgett double puts runners on 2nd/3rd. With 1 out, Lockhart HBP to load the bases. That’s it for Lancellotti and they bring on Josh Hiatt (He finished the game last night)

Joe Davis GRAND SLAM!!!UNC leads 14-11

Hollis single. Wild pitch moves him to 2nd.

M8…Heels lead 14-11
