Comments

Well...the Horns didn't pull it off. But, it was a pretty good game. UTSA took advantage of their opportunities while the Horns failed to do likewise. The pitching and defense looked pretty good...especially considering this was the first game of the season. Offensively, the guys seemed to be pushing just a bit. Weather report: the temperature went back-and-forth between 63 and 64 deg. F and a fairly stiff wind blew in from cf or across from lf toward the visitors' dugout for most of the game.

And, so...

Game summary:

• 1st inning
  • UTSA:
    • Wenzel grounded out to 2b (4-3).
    • Johnston grounded out to ss (6-3).
    • Juarez grounded out to 2b (4-3).
  • Texas:
    • Richardson grounded out to the pitcher on a bunt attempt (1-3).
    • Cridland grounded out to 1b (3u).
    • Loeffler went down swinging (1-2 count).
• 2nd inning
  • UTSA:
    • Minus doubled to lf.
    • Wallis reached on a 6-5 fielder's choice. Minus made a baserunning mistake by taking off at the crack of the bat and was easily thrown out by Moore.
    • Putnicki hit into a 6-4-3 double play. It was a great defensive play since Wallis was running with the pitch.
  • Texas:
    • Schumacher grounded out to 2b (4-3).
    • Cox flew out to cf. A nice catch by UTSA's Wenzel.
    • Kolbach tripled to deep cf.
    • Moore was hit by a pitch (0-0 count).
    • Nicholson flew out to lf.
• 3rd inning
  • UTSA:
    • Prater grounded out to 3b (5-3).
    • McGinnis was called out on strikes (full count).
    • Smith went down swinging on an 0-2 pitch. Cox dropped the ball, though, and had to throw to 1b to complete the out.
  • Texas:
    • Aspito singled up the middle.
    • Richardson walked (3-1 count). Aspito moved to 2b.
    • Cridland grounded out to 1b (3u). Aspito moved to 3b and Richardson moved to 2b.
    • Loeffler was hit by a pitch (1-0 count) to load the bases.
    • Schumacher popped out to ss.
    • Cox was called out on strikes (0-2 count).
• 4th inning
  • UTSA (1 earned run):
    • Wenzel walked (3-1 count).
    • Johnston advanced Wenzel to 2b on a sac bunt (1-3). Schumacher made a nice play to catch a slightly off-target throw from Halter.
    • Juarez singled up the middle (rbi). Wenzel scored from 2b.
    • Minus went down swinging.
    • Wallis popped out to 1b (foul). Another nice play by Schumacher.
  • Texas:
    • Kolbach lined out to lf.
    • Moore grounded out to ss (6-3).
    • Nicholson grounded out (high chopper) to the pitcher (1-3).
• 5th inning
  • UTSA (1 earned run):
    • Putnicki doubled to the gap in shallow lf/cf. Richardson and Loeffler narrowly avoided running into each other.
    • Prater singled to cf (rbi). Putnicki scored from 2b.
    • McGinnis advanced Prater to 2b on a sac bunt (1-3).
    • Smith popped up to shallow rf.
    • Wenzel walked (3-1 count).
    • Johnston grounded out to the pitcher (1-3). Halter did a nice job fielding the high chopper and getting the ball to Schumacher.
  • Texas:
    • Aspito lined out to ss.
    • Richardson doubled down the lf line. The ball went into the corner in lf and Richardson might've been able to reach 3b if he hadn't tripped and fallen at 1b.
    • Cridland flew out to shallow cf.
    • Loeffler was hit by a pitch (2-0 count).
    • Schumacher grounded out to 1b (3u).
• 6th inning
  • UTSA (1 earned run):
    • Texas sent Hale in to pitch.
    • Juarez took a (3-1 count) fast ball into a fairly stiff wind and over the fence just left of the "green monster" in cf (rbi).
    • Minus grounded out to 3b (5-3).
    • Wallis grounded out to 3b (5-3).
    • Putnicki was called out on strikes (1-2 count).
  • Texas:
    • Cox was hit by a pitch (1-2 count).
    • Kolbach singled to rf. Cox moved to 2b.
    • Moore reached on a bunt down the 3b line. Cox moved to 3b. Kolbach moved to 2b.
    • Nicholson reached on a 1-2 fielder's choice. On the play, all three Texas baserunners hesitated as the pitcher fielded the ball. The pitcher started to throw to 2b (going for the double play) but his teammates told him to throw home. Since the baserunners had hesitated, it was a fairly easy play. Kolbach moved to 3b. Moore moved to 2b.
    • Aspito hit into a 4-6-3 double play.
• 7th inning
  • UTSA:
    • Prater grounded out to 1b (3-1). Schumacher booted the ball but recovered in time to flip the ball to Hale covering 1b.

• 9th inning
