UH Baseball 2024: K-State (Mar 22-24)

5-2 coogs, top of the 8th!

tied up 5-5 …2 runs on an error

6-5… im clocking out

Murray having a Big 12 POY, All American type year but not as the closer.

That error at 1st. You HAVE to make that routine play.
UH OF starts sliding so far ahead of the ball.

Still a potent line up but some red hot UH hitters have slowed down.

I missed the game and went to the Ath website to get the score late yesterday night. They had no coverage of the game…still had Friday’s blurb about losing. I had to go into the schedule to see if we won or lost.

I know Pez really just cares about one thing at a time but could we at least get four or five lines on the baseball board to tell what happened? P5

Then again, why complain about little things when we lost?

Back to back games lost because of errors.

He is 26 hitting against guys way younger than him. He is a good hitter burt it is just hard for me to give him too much credit. He should be doing what he is doing!!

Someone will draft him in a late round and send him straight to High A and then AA for his first full season to see if he can hit at that level.
He’s got two years max to make the show as a 5th OF.

I think the season was over when Whitting wasn’t replaced after the 2021 debacle.

Loving UH in Big 12 baseball. Watching every minute regardless.
This series was flat out embarrassing.
Announcer desperate enough to talk Whitt “build character”.
UH pitching like swinging at a tomato can on a fence today.
Stiff after stiff.

Starters are good.
Benzor still a zero ERA.
Citelli good again. 1.17 ERA.

Touted frosh Alex Solis has moments but 3 outs is enough. ERA near 7 now.
Schmitz bad again.

Fielding horrible again.
So bad official scorers are blowing off errors.
Bad luck or guy just not capable of making the play.

3 guys w at least 4 errors now.
Not just the errors. No range and in the wrong position often.
1 guy in OF has a good arm.(maybe)

Catcher @ 5 for 20 on stolen base attempts. (from memory)
Can’t get it close enough to 2nd base for a play half the time. Hitting under .230.

2 guys playing a lot under are .200. Big time over matched by B12 pitching.
Catching up on Super Rugby Americans during the bottom of UH order.

Lamar next.
18-4. (17-1 v Quad 4)

Disappointing weekend for sure. Can the basketball team perk us up??

We peaked too early in the season, apparently.

TW Baseball as usual, WTH Pez gave him a 3yr deal is mind boggling. Poor fundamentals year after year after year is a statement on lack of leadership and direction.

Yeah, not good to peak after the first conference series!

This was a great post that highlighted things most people don’t think about.( limited range, arm strength, etc.)

Pez basically said we’re broke. Should have given him a 10-year deal and demolish the stadium. Turn it into a skating rink for retired cartoon characters. Let Whitting be the ticket taker.
