A pair of teams usually known for their pitching had an INSANE game.. Missouri 31, Texas 12.  Was the wind blowing out to center at 50 mph or something?  Was there a tornado sitting above homeplate grabbing hits and throwing over the OF wall?  Were the umps making the strikezone the size of their belt buckle?

Missouri, a team whose offense has been their biggest question mark, had 31 runs against TEXAS.

You occasionally, much moreso this season, see scores like this in college baseball but it is usually from weaker pitching-less programs.  It is very, very rare for strong programs like this, especially with top-level pitching, to have such a retarded football game score.

MIssouri's Sr RF Jacob Priday, an excellent but unspectacular veteran slugger, might have had the game of the year going 5-5 with FOUR homers, NINE RBIs, 6 runs scored and a walk.

MIssou Jr 1b Steve Gray was 3-7 with 2 homers... eight MIzzou players had multiple hits, six had 3 or more hits.  Seven Mizzou players scored 3 or more runs with four scoring 4 or more

Texas, a team usually known for pitching and Augie Garrido small-ball, (though they have had more big hitters recently) at least managed to score 12 of their own including two homers on a 3-4 day from a Kyle Russell trying to revive his corpse of a bat.  The big day only managed to bring his line up to .260-7 on a team that hits .311

Aaron Crow had his scoreless inning streak, and pristine ERA for the year, spoiled by giving up 9 ERs on 9 hits and 2 BBs in 5 IP, striking out four (EDIT: i originally goofed and put 2 Ks, he had 4 Ks.  A bad outing, especially by a great pitcher, but really not all that bad when you consider how the game went.  Only Mizzou reliever Rick Zagone and Texas reliever Pat McCrory pitched better than him a game that saw 9 pitchers.  Missouri was good to only use two pitchers, despite giving up 12 runs, to save arms for later in the weekend

Also impressive, in the bad way, was Drew Bishop (Texas' final pitcher) managing to walk 7 in 2 innings.

Did the umps really not want to get out of there in the 9th in a 20 run game?
