Gamethread- Friday- Game 1 vs Wichita (also UH Throwback Replica Jersey Giveaway thread) (W 3-1)

Good day to hit the ballpark.

Wish they would say how many they’re going to give away. Also, what time period is this jersey from?

You could try calling ticket office/ADs office to find out how many they have…

Last time I saw that jersey…it was on Jim Rice, Carlton Fisk, Fred Lynn, etc

Looks 70’s era Boston Red Sox !

Notice…It doesn’t say “retro”

I saw somewhere that it would be 900

Yep, 900 and they start giving them away when the gates open at 4:30.

Sizes are Adult L and Youth L

In a town with a large % of 6 foot + Texans, I’m surprised not at least XL.
Would look good in a frame if it doesnt fit.

Agreed. I’m 6’5” so it won’t fit me, but my kids will like them.

Good quality.

PITCHING BREAKDOWN
[W] Trey Cumbie | 8.0 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 9 K
[S] Carter Henry | 1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K

Houston starter Trey Cumbie was lights out as he tossed 8.0 innings, allowing just one run on one walk with five hits to accompany his nine strikeouts.

Cumbie managed to retire 10 Shocker hitters in a row between innings 3-6 and of those 10 outs, he struck out six to maintain Houston’s 3-1 lead.

The southpaw went on to collect his fourth win of the year, improving to 4-2 overall and 3-1 in league play.

Sophomore closer Carter Henry shut the door in the ninth to collect his fourth save of 2018 and register his 11th straight scoreless inning over a span of nine relief appearances.

USF lost and Cincy won which means the Coogs and the Bearcats are atop the AAC standings right now.

Coogs also up to 107 in the RPI. Good chance they move into the top 100 if they win at least one more this weekend.

AAC also ranked as the 4th best conference right now as we passed the Pac12 last weekend. Conference also isn’t too far behind the ACC for 3rd.
