College Baseball: Texas State vs Nicholls State (Win Or Go Home)

Texas State's run through the losers' bracket continued this afternoon when Ty Harrington's club beat up Sam Houston State. Now, the Bobcats hope to stave off elimination once again as they take on Nicholls State, the same team that shut them out Wednesday night.

First pitch is set for 7:50 p.m. with Travis Ballew taking the mound against Mike Wisecarver.

First Inning

Texas State gets a bloop single from Casey Kalenkosky, but nothing else. Bear Comer led off with a single for Nicholls State, but a fortunate bounce turned into a double play in the next at-bat, then a line out ended the frame.

Second Inning

Texas State wasted an opportunity with two on and one out. Cory Falvey and Clint Vest reached base, but Bret Atwood grounded into a 4-6-3 double play. Nicholls State goes down in order. Ballew has faced the minimum thus far.

Third Inning

Texas State gave Ballew a four-run lead after four runs on five hits. Andrew Stumph and Kyle Kubitza each roped RBI doubles and Falvey (2-for-2) singled home another. Nicholls State got a single by Philip Lyons, who advanced to second on a pitch in the dirt, but Ballew struck out Comer to end the inning.

Fourth Inning

Texas State's bats continue to come alive as it collected five hits -- two for extra bases -- and three runs. Things are looking good for the Bobcats as they lead 7-0. Nicholls State goes down in order.

Fifth Inning

Texas State put two on with no outs, but a poor bunt by Atwood turned into a double play and then Gallegos grounded out. Ballew wrapped three outs around a Nicholls State triple.

Sixth Inning

Texas State gets nothing, but Nicholls State put two across to slice the Bobcats' lead to five.

Seventh Inning

Four runs on five hits for Texas State as the Bobcats open up a nine-run lead. Stumph struck out with the bases loaded to end a threat. Ballew struck out the side in the Nicholls State side of the inning, wrapping it around a single.

Eighth Inning

Texas State goes down in order. Nicholls State puts up another zero.

Ninth Inning

Texas State tacks on three more behind five hits. The Bobcats have 24 hits tonight, tying a season high. Nicholls State can't mount a ridiculous rally.

Game over.

College Baseball: Texas State vs Sam Houston State (Someone Has To Go Home)

Texas State avoided elimination yesterday against Southeastern Louisiana thanks to a five-run seventh inning that included a critical error by the Lions' left fielder Jeff Harkensee. For the Bobcats to stay alive today, they'll need to beat a tough Sam Houston State team.

College Baseball: Kalenkosky sets a school record in the SLC Tournament

Texas State junior first baseman Casey Kalenkosky just clubbed his 19th home run of the season, breaking a previous school record set by Luke Cannon (2006) and Paul Goldschmidt (2009). Kalenkosky's bomb sailed well over the net above the left-field wall to put Texas State up 5-2 against Southeastern Louisiana in a Southland Conference Tournament Elimination Game. The Bobcats went on to win by the same score.

College Baseball: Texas State vs Nicholls State (Inning-By-Inning Analysis)

First Inning

Nicholls State went down 1-2-3 on eight pitches as Mitchell Pitts' longest battle was six pitches against Chase Jaramillo, who flew out to Cory Falvey in right. Texas State wasted a perfect opportunity to get on top when Jeff McVaney roped a one-out single. Kyle Kubitza followed with a walk, but Andrew Stumph grounded into a 4-6-3 double play.

Second Inning

Nicholls State collected two hits, but Scott Moseley was caught in between first and second trying a delayed steal following his single. Austin Flores followed with a single of his own, which could have put runners at first and second with one out, but with two outs, Beau Faulk's pop out ended the frame. Texas State got a one-out double from Cory Falvey, but couldn't bring him around when Bret Atwood lined out to center field and Cody Gambill's long fly ball to center settled into Bear Comer's glove. Both teams seem to be hitting the ball hard, but nothing is falling.

Third Inning

Nicholls State got on the board with an RBI single from Chase Jaramillo. The Colonels had two on with one out, but a ground out and strikeout ended the threat. Nicholls State has five hits so far, so the Colonels are getting to Pitts. Texas State got runners on first and second with no outs, but McVaney failed to get a bunt down and two consecutive fly outs killed the Bobcats' chances. 1-0, Colonels.
