OSU vs. TCU Open Thread

NCAA Fort Worth Regional, Game 4 - 5 PM PT - Gametracker - Webcast     

Win today, we're in the drivers seat, lose, it's not the end of the world. 

GET 'ER DONE!

Tyler Waldron will get the start on the hill today. He'll be facing a pesky lineup in TCU that can be shut down, but it will all depend on his performance, much like it did last night with Sam Gaviglio and Texas A&M.

Waldron gives up a hit in the first but gets a DP ball to get out of the first...

Beavers have a man on with an out now in the bottom of the first.

Beavers have runners at second and third with two outs...

Jared Norris at the plate, we need something to happen here.

The other announcer just complimented the play-by-play guy because he’s doing so great with the names.

Hitters are getting lots of contact against Walderon

just gave up a triple and a run. should be a short outing for him today

Woof

Not a good start

Hitting Waldron way too well right now with a double, triple, and HR already, and no hitting going on the Beavs side yet.

-RVM

by rvm on May 30, 2009 5:46 PM PDT reply actions  

We need him to work well into this game...

because pitching is so crucial in these regionals. Plus, we used seven guys yesterday. Most of them not for a long time, but we still need to conserve wherever possible.

Yep, totally agree

But getting way too good of contact against him. Singles here and there and SOs = not so much an issue, but the extra base hits with the Beaver offense up against an excellent pitcher is not good.

I agree with Jake

That it wouldn’t be end of the world to lose, but it would be oh so much better with a W tonight.

-RVM

by rvm on May 30, 2009 5:50 PM PDT reply actions  

True

As much as I would like the Texas A&M type of big explosion of offense, that’s not the Casey way and need to hang tough.

Good luck Beavers!

I’m watching the Oklahoma vs Arkansas feed and keeping my eye on the score of your game. We play the loser tomorrow afternoon.

right now need some luck, not playing very well right now, still a lot of game left though

It’s still early in the game.

Waldron just doesn't have his stuff tonight

We need to pull him before it’s to late.

by ConnorOSU on May 30, 2009 6:05 PM PDT reply actions  

Yep

Seems like they are trying to buy a little time here and get Nygren warmed up. I assume Nygren will be in on the next batter.

Strike out!

Wow, that could have be SO much worse.

Let’s get those bats going guys!

Yeah

Hopefully that gives us a spark.

Totally thought Waldron would not make it through that inning, showed some guts after walking the first two batters and then having a bad play on the bunt by Romero.

TCU-4, Beavers-0

by ConnorOSU on May 30, 2009 6:10 PM PDT reply actions  

To me

it just feels like if we can get that first hit. He’s not pitching great or horrible right now, but a bit wild at times so if we can get those balls to drop could open it up a bit.

An error on the shortstop works!

-RVM

by rvm on May 30, 2009 6:15 PM PDT reply actions  

another double play to end the inning

Need to get the balls out of the infield and start to get some runs. Starting to get to the latter part of this game.

-RVM

by rvm on May 30, 2009 6:17 PM PDT up reply actions  

hate to say it

But not going to win this game with Waldron.

-RVM

by rvm on May 30, 2009 6:19 PM PDT up reply actions  

I agree

I feel that it was like that last night early, with us just jumping on every opportunity. There were some big hits like Tommasini’s triple that got the OSU offense going. But I agree, if someone gets a big double or something to that effect, it could be good for the overall mojo. This team seems very streaky.

BTW - You have great fans....

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Corvallis this year even though it was an 8-2 loss. Go Beavs!!!

by SW WA Coug on May 30, 2009 6:19 PM PDT reply actions  

Glad you enjoyed Corvallis.

I’m not sure that any of us will return the favor and travel to Pullman next year….

Thanks!

Since I was at that game, I’ll take that one personally (all in a good way).

-RVM

by rvm on May 30, 2009 6:20 PM PDT up reply actions  

I usually don't get so critical

But thinking they have kept Waldron in there way too long. His play is starting to drag the team down.

-RVM

by rvm on May 30, 2009 6:24 PM PDT up reply actions  

yep and then some

score by TCU on a pass ball after a poor play on the steal by the infielders.

Beavs not looking sharp at all right now.

-RVM

by rvm on May 30, 2009 6:22 PM PDT up reply actions  

I'd say that everything went right yesterday for half of the game.

And there’s still half of the game left for us to work with, offensively. There’s some optimism, for you.

We just lack consistency right now.

This is pathetic

The guy has walked five and struck out none, but pitching a no hitter through five?

I’m sorry but putting this one all on the Beavers batters.

-RVM

by rvm on May 30, 2009 6:37 PM PDT reply actions  

And I would give all the credit in the world if the pitcher was overwhelming us, but just not seeing it. I could be wrong?

-RVM

by rvm on May 30, 2009 6:40 PM PDT up reply actions  

so you seeing that too?

I mean it doesn’t seem like this guy is bringing anything that we can’t hit away on and get some runs going?

Maybe not all six, but one at the very least.

Wong, Santos, Ortiz due.

that was a weird play all the way around

looked almost like a hit and run and the ball sank a bit on Ryan when it got to the plate, but with full count?

A little more straight on with that swing and that was going to be a score of 3 to 6

Nine more outs to get it done. It’s not out of question…

no more scores here please

Wouldn’t it be a nice bit of sweet justice if we could somehow pull this out with a 7 to 6 win, after all those losses we had on the wrong side of the score.

It certainly can be done....

Arkansas was up 10-1 on Oklahoma and now it’s 10-6 and Sooners are still batting in the top of the 6th.

Down to one game for the season now. Hoping for a repeat of 2007 and this kicks them into gear.

But today they have been really off. TCU played a solid game but Beavs almost look tired and way off focus.
