“This was a game of missed opportunities.” No joke. In the 3-5 loss to Nebraska we had runners in scoring position in every inning but the ninth but only managed to get three across the plate. In total we were 2-for-14 with runners in scoring position. The game ended with two men stranded after Black Stouffer chased a slider that he "should not have chased." Today we face Texas. Childress thinks we have something to prove after our four game skid and Stouffer will be playing with a chip on his shoulder. Our batters are going to have to get hot because our pitching is looking a little weak. Kirkland Rivers will be getting his second career start and coach will only use Kyle Nicholson in short relief if we are winning late. Rivers has an ERA of 5.87 and 20 strike outs in 23 innings.
