Hogs in two?

What in the world just happened? That was the most incredible sequence of events I’ve ever witnessed in a baseball game. And it was all right in front of Con and I. Wow!

• Today the Lord led us out of the desert and away from the clutches of our enemies. We checked out of that dump in Council Bluffs and checked into a life saving oasis in Omaha.
• The day was full of good omens. The hotel, was only the beginning. We went back to a place called Upstream. It was delicious the first night we were here, so we figured we’d try it for lunch. Saw a few members of the Casey family, met a great beaver fan that chatted us up for a bit, took a ride with an unstable Lyft driver (but she kept saying how much she hated Arkansas, so that was fine.) It was just good vibes all around. We also got a spot in the shade for the ticket line. There was something in the air.
• “Hogs in two”. Heard that one on repeat today. Listened to a lot of fans making celebration plans.
• We switched it up and went to right field today. It was a great choice.
• Fans were a little more tolerable tonight, but still a lot of annoying people. One guy behind us brought up Luke again (real original) I told him what I thought about that. He actually wanted to fight me and I gave him an open invitation. Oddly enough nothing happened. So sick of jokers that think they can just say whatever disgusting remarks they want with no consequence.
• Another frustrating game. The Beavs continued to be their own worst enemy. I believe we counted three times that the Beavers had someone on third with one out or less and something catastrophic happened resulting in no runs.
• Another gem from the bullpen. Eisert held down the fort in a phenomenal 5 inning, 7 strikeout affair. The bullpen has saved this team during throughout their stay in Omaha.
• Things looked pretty scary right up until the Beavs were down to their final strike.
• Grenier had a 2-2 count with a runner on third and two outs. He popped up the pitch in foul territory down the first base line, three Razorbacks moved in for the title clinching out…
• Thud. The ball fell harmlessly to the ground. The Beavers had new life.
• Grenier drove in the tying run with a single up the middle. We lost our minds. A brand new ballgame.
• Then, Trevor Larnach crushed a ball to the right field bullpen and mayhem ensued.
• The home run happened right in front of us and we lost our minds once more.
• And a hush fell over the once incredible Arkansas crowd. Shoutout to Chris Herb.
• Then Mullholland slammed the door in the 9th to finish it off.
• The Beavs live to play another day. Game three is happening!
• Arkansas fans went dark following the game. That crowd goes from arrogant to hopeless in about the time it took for Larnach’s home run to clear the fence.
• So… Hogs in two?
• Go Beavs!
