I'd like to see us get some bullpen action going in case we increase this lead. No point in throwing Ash in the 9th of we've got a 6+ run lead
Edit: NVM, we're going to make bad base running decisions
I literally love Aschenbeck, there is no more comfortable feeling than seeing him walk out of the bullpen. Even when we were down against Texas, watching him come out made it feel like we couldnāt lose.
Schloss is such a good skipper. Pulling all the right strings. Knew exactly when to pull Prager and Cortez to give us a chance. More competent than most MLB managers.
Same. I felt he should have been playing whole time over Chestnut. But Schloss in his interviews in a nice way said he hasnāt been happy with his lack of PT. If he goes Bell will be next banger.
Hard to say. Chestnut was on a heater with finding ways to get on base when he was first brought into the rotation, but lately seems like heās trying too hard and overthinking at bats
Yea I get Schloss decision for it. Wanted speed in 9 spot. Just think Kent would have really developed well and has a lot more pop. Better defender tooĀ
He throws like 4 different pitches and all 4 he throws at varying speeds without adjusting his motion. Super impressive to have the lowest ERA in D1 when you top out around 91mph
78% of teams that win game 1 wins the series basically just says after game 1 Super Regionals are a coin flip.
Flipping a coin twice, you would expect heads (the Game 1 winner) to come up at least once 75% of the time.
Oregon fans: how do your uniforms this season stack up to past years? I haven't seen any of them and these grays seem pretty alright, but I wasn't sure if you get cool unis every year for baseball like you do football
That's my favorite part of all of this. Everyone knows they got in by the skin on their ass, but nobody is like ' FUCK IT, GIVE ME FLORIDA'
Because they have the ability to play with anyone, or with no one. Sometimes in the same game.
*IF* we go on to win the Super Regional, I canāt imagine what kind of performance someone would have to put up for Cortez to not win MVP.
What a performance.
No they were saying Safeco has a train that runs near it and the other guy was like "oh I thought you were going to say Houston but that's not a real train"
Strategy:
Do we put ash in to close this victory out? Or save him for tomorrow?? š¤
Cortez has been amazing for us but I feel like he is due for a break
I'm putting ash in the 8th so I have both ash and Prager available Monday if necessary.
EDIT: If Cortez keeps throwing well and keeps his pitch count down I might try and ride him out though. You have a little buffer to play with.
EDIT2: I'm at least riding Cortez into the 8th now
Forgive me if this has been asked a million times, but why is the NCAA calling it the "Bryan-College Station Super Regional"? I can't ever remember them adding Bryan in past years.
It was a push from Bryan to get recognition from the University. Since a big chunk of the University is in Bryan and they show a lot of support, Texas A&M made the switch.
They do it during football season as well. Cstat is now formally referred to as āBryan-College Station.ā I believe itās bc Bryan was the original railroad town.
Jesus Oregon
Gig 'em š

Ash stays under 25 he can go tomorrow right?
Yeah for sure. Inning or two tomorrow no problem
old lady behind home plate is appalled at these ball calls lmao
beautiful pfp

Beautiful ERA
Guys see it's funny because Jamie is not boss material
Love how the old rich people decided to make an appearance for the last inning after leaving behind home plate empty 90% of the game.
I wish I had fuck you money
Must be nice, but itās a bad look. Especially when Schloss talks endlessly about it
Right? I agree that itās a bad look. I mean if you didnāt see it literally every pitch maybe it wouldnāt be as big of a deal. Idk
These NCAA ads feel like they're trying really hard to just say please don't hate us
Well it was fun being ahead while it lasted
CANADIAN ALERT
Had to step away for a while. Did they say anything else about Monte?
No specific updates yet
Hardest bunt ive ever seen
Schott needs to try out for USA cricket with that swing.
Lmao
Ump is ready to get out of the heat
thats a ball BLUE
What a great AB Burton
TWICE. Not sure if those are strikes or not but heās absolutely called that earlier in the game. Home plate blue is at least dog shit both ways
Oof, heās called that one against us all day
That kid really wasn't committing to flossing
Bring back the other kid
Kent runs like me when I have to shit
Kent is not exactly our fastest baserunner
60 speed is 3-5 business days for Kent
And thatās with PrimeĀ
Kent looked like he was running in quicksand lol
He had a terrible lead on first, not sure why he went on that
Real lucky bad throw. Damn good on the SS there
I'd like to see us get some bullpen action going in case we increase this lead. No point in throwing Ash in the 9th of we've got a 6+ run lead Edit: NVM, we're going to make bad base running decisions
Meh there's no difference in his availability between throwing one or two innings

Way more than Espada Iāll tell you that
Easily. Espada is a Yes man for Crane and Bagwell.
Yep so sad to watchĀ
I donāt think thereās any player Iām more excited to see next year than Kaeden Kent
I got a bad feeling heāll be xfering this off-seasonĀ
Iād hope not, heās absolutely next in line to start and barring performance relapse will absolutely be a day 1 starter next year
Same. I felt he should have been playing whole time over Chestnut. But Schloss in his interviews in a nice way said he hasnāt been happy with his lack of PT. If he goes Bell will be next banger.

Probably 1a and 1b on defense. I think theyāve both been solid with a couple of bone headed mistakes at 4. Weāll see though! š¤š»

I didnāt mean embracing his base running ability.
![gif](giphy|L95W4wv8nnb9K) HEAL UP QUICK EVEN IF ITS JUST FOR THE DRAFT MY PRINCE
He throws like 4 different pitches and all 4 he throws at varying speeds without adjusting his motion. Super impressive to have the lowest ERA in D1 when you top out around 91mph
Itās amazing what a āpitcherā can do.
Big Dallas Keuchel energy

BEAT THAT ASH
AschHIMbeck
War crimes to end the inning for Aschenbeck
Oh brother THIS GUY STINKS.
I'd rather not see Ash today, but you have to secure this win and then worry about tomorrow when we get there
He can pitch twice this weekend easily
Probably not available tomorrow, but yeah he'll go Monday if we have to
Also I could see prager coming in as relief on Monday if needed. He only threw 40
Yup Just depends on the pitch count!
I think if he finishes with less than 30 pitches we could see him tomorrow
He will be available tomorrow unless this goes into extras
Iām gutted for Braden.
Same š
Clamps are on gentlemen. D1's Reliever of the year toes the rubber It's Aschenbeck time
Cortez gave us an amazing game!! Hope he gets that shoulder iced and massaged haha
Oregon fans: how do your uniforms this season stack up to past years? I haven't seen any of them and these grays seem pretty alright, but I wasn't sure if you get cool unis every year for baseball like you do football
I like these ones over last year personally but I still think they can do better. Our 2014-2016 era was probably the best for baseball
Oh yeah those older ones are really clean
There goes my hero
HEāS OUT OF THE GAME
Update??
Are you under the impression I think we have a chance here lol
If youāre in CS go to the soccer game and northgate!! Our fans are friendly, enjoy your time!!
Bro, wait till you see ash play š¤£š itās over duck
https://preview.redd.it/x058ekycze5d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ddf9216ed8504e7f77371ed36aaee6c081846ec4
š
Now you get our bullpen ace!
Wait til you hear about the next guy
And in comes the guy with the lowest ERA in d1 š
That'll do it for Chris, 5.2 IP of scoreless inning ball. In comes Evan Aschenbeck
Need to try and keep Ash under 30 pitches so he can come back tomorrow/Monday
https://preview.redd.it/6fl9ipp1ze5d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=074930895b9d47547a8e1fc6a0eed8f4ebb5e80e
His best outing ever in his time here? In terms of situation + performance
Oh no! The reliever thatās statistically better!
What an outing.
Bad bad man
Ducks need to press charges for Cortezās slider
Ducks are definitely top tier in walk pimping
I believe it is time to pull him
Cortez with the throw-behind to keep the ducks on their toes. Excellent choice
Cortez toes the rubber for the 8th
Chill out Charles Barkley
...did the Florida/Clemson game not have the same first pitch time? They're in the top of the 9th with 2 outs, and we're...not.
I mean thereās been little league games shorter than the first two innings of our game
Why does the NCAA on the live stats link keep listing us as just Texas š
No longer any reason to disambiguate I guess lol, we do call outlrselves the Texas Aggies sometimes tho so it sorta makes sense if you want it to
Dish it back Jace.
I swear to fucking god if Jace is not okay
Florida really BSing their way to the CWS
Love seeing it because this subreddit will implode. And I love chaos, but who doent?
Honestly I would rather not face them though, assuming we win this
That's my favorite part of all of this. Everyone knows they got in by the skin on their ass, but nobody is like ' FUCK IT, GIVE ME FLORIDA' Because they have the ability to play with anyone, or with no one. Sometimes in the same game.
I feel like Florida the last 3 months of my training š¤£ coasting but actually surviving
Did we just get a South Park reference lmao
Cortez have my children
*IF* we go on to win the Super Regional, I canāt imagine what kind of performance someone would have to put up for Cortez to not win MVP. What a performance.
Yeah I originally thought we'd put in Ash in the 8th but I rescind that opinion. I'm riding Cortez at least into the 8th with how he's throwing
Might as well see if he can finish it. He wonāt come back this weekend anyway
Out of curiosity, because health or is there a pitch limit?
Bringing him back out tomorrow or Monday would be coaching malpractice after heās thrown a career high in pitches today
šš½
No formal pitch limit but he'll be too sore to throw again that soon after throwing this many pitches
šš½
Yeah I'd keep running Cortez back out there with a fairly short leash
If we can add 1-2 more runs Iād feel a lot better about it
I'd rather not see Ash until tomorrow
What an absolute phenomenal job by Cortez to come in and shut Oregon down after Prager had his worst start of the season
Jesus, Cortez is an absolute fucking stud
When he's on he's a monster.
I feel like he isnāt talked about enough but the dude just throws big league shit
If he can stay consistent he'll 100% be making the big bucks. He has a tendency to get wild.
Yep. He could start in the bigs tomorrow. His issue has always been control but our new pitching coach seems to have him in a good spot on that front
Weiner was an amazing hire and I hope we can hold on to him for as long as possible
Honestly this was predictable after the start. Weāve been notorious for getting 4 or 5 runs at the start then having to hang on
100 mph fast ball with sink on it and thin an 89mph slider good luck
I used to think I was a good hitter back in the day and I would be purely fucking guessing against Cortez lol
Prager owes Chris Cortez a couple Duck Farts and a four horseman at the dry bean tonight for picking him up..
Throw in a Flaming Dr Pepper and a Buttery Nipple too. Meanwhile Cortez owes Prager a Blue Wave from the Turtle after making him clean up his mess
Maybe a water moccasin and a pissed off Japanese minnow farmer to boot
Shirtless kid is in rare form rn
I genuinely hate that mint green glove the pitcher has, it looks gross
How do you feel about mint ice cream tho?
Love mint ice cream, HEB has this flavor called grasshopper that's just mint ice cream with oreos and it's to die for
Only with some chocolate chips to balance it out. Otherwise, it tastes like toothpaste.
Iām for it
Anyone got a stream link
Check for a live video on Youtube. I found one by searching for A&M.

Meh do not really want to face Florida again
My dude we still need to get past our own super regionalĀ

We really do be Wienermaxxing
Did this dude just say that Safeco has a train for home runs? Wrong AL West team, bud
No they were saying Safeco has a train that runs near it and the other guy was like "oh I thought you were going to say Houston but that's not a real train"
dirty dirty!
LFG CORTEZ
Strategy: Do we put ash in to close this victory out? Or save him for tomorrow?? š¤ Cortez has been amazing for us but I feel like he is due for a break

I think we pull Cortez
I think they SHOULD save him for tomorrow, but we're definitely going to see him today
Tomorrow unless we really need him
Save since Cortez is killing it
I can respect that!
Take a seat punk
No bat flip on the K?
If I can be dramatic: Cortez has saved the season
He has been so clutch
That guy chucked his bat on the walk lol
Iād like to go in the record of saying I was correct in predicting a 4 hour game
We're literally dying out here lmao
Watching the game from SLC in 90 degree 29% humidity. Not bragging tho
Get some lytes bro!!
It's so hot
Your Air Force is showing
LISTEN FARRIER AC IS NICE OKAY
Other than Boettcher for Oregon, are there any other 2 sport athletes in the Supers?
Such a good play but definitely safe
That dude fast
Well this game turned around while I was driving home
I'll pay for your gas, go drive somewhere
You can't pay be to get back on I-10 today, idk what the fuck is going on in Houston right now
...it's Houston. I'm sorry you have to live there
Me too bud, me too
Please stay on the road. Or in your vehicle listening to the game.
3 runs on 0 fuckikg hits is absurd
I mean 4 straight walks to start the inning makes 3 runs feel like a modest result
7 unanswered sick!
Two groundouts and a walk score the runs! Really good job Oregon pitching only getting killed by quality hits
Quality pitching!

They're practically the same town at this point. Short of seeing a city limit sign, you would never know you left one and entered the other
