[ohio tarheels]

Not sure what’s so hard about that call

I think part of it is the umps on site are waiting to hear from NCAA central on the call as they aren’t even looking at replay in Lubbock

 

[ohio tarheels]

Stewart continues to have a day with a single to left... 1st and 3rd for Frick

Wild pitches and pass balls are really hurting Carolina tonight

Rapp coming in to try and hold the lead with tying run 90’ away

 

[Jarrod Hardy]

Heels will go to the bullpen again this time Shawn Rapp

 

[ohio tarheels]

Finally ready for the at bat to take place

 

[ohio tarheels]

After all that Rapp no where near plate on 4 straight to walk the PH
