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.
