I was going to go, but can’t make it with the earlier time. Understand why they moved it up, though.

Iv’e reached the point where I dread checking an update about the game. It’s like I know we will be down.
Hard to get motivated to go to games if the team is this bad.
Ditto!
Coogs get 2 in the 3rd and are down 3-2 in the Bottom of the 5th.
Top 6th
2 outs and a runner on 1st and Rooney replaces Nolan Bond with Villarreal. Bond pitched well in relief of Hynes as he gave up 3 hits, 0 runs, 3 Ks in 4.0 IP.
Villarreal gives up an infield single, but escapes without giving up any runs.
M6…Rice leads 3-2
Top 7th
Rice leads off with 2 singles and a walk to load the bases with no outs. Single plates a run…Rice leads 4-2
Fielder’s Choice scores another…Rice leads 5-2
Villarreal escapes without any other runs scoring.
Top 8th
Bayless on for Villarreal
After a flyout, an error on the SS, a wild pitch, and a walk, Rooney bring in Ron Brown.
Brown gets out of it with no runs scoring
M8…Rice leads 5-2
Bottom 8th
Leadoff triple from Fuentes. Infield single from Bielo brings him home…Rice leads 5-3
3 straight outs end the inning
T9…Rice leads 5-3
Top 9th
Hurdsman on to pitch. Give up a 2 out double, but nothing else.
M9…Rice leads 5-3
Bottom 9th
Lockhart K’s for Out #1
Way lines out to the LF for Out #2
Hyland walks
Burckel K’s for the final out
Rice wins 5-3
Coogs have lost 5 in a row now.
Same song, different verse. Going to be a long season at this point. Hasn’t been any consistent (or any) hitting at this point. And, no pitcher has stood out as a Friday night starter or closer.
Haven’t seen anything that gives me hope that we can turn it around any time soon.
Last time we had a 5 game losing streak was 2016, also believe that was the last time we didn’t make a regional. Looks like we have some work to do.
Another frustrating game to watch. Was kinda cool tho because hardly anyone was there. Seemed weird. But it wouldn’t have mattered.
