 | Beard Sparkles, Blanks Texas Saturday, April 27th, 2013: Jack Beard was sneaky fast, on the mark and hard to hit today. He blanked the Texas Longhorns 6-0 on 4 hits and had 1 walk and 8 strikeouts.
"You know what he's going to throw. You know what to expect. And you still can't hit it," the Texas skipper told reporters after the shutout loss to the Houston Cougars.
"He just had a real deceiving fastball today and he was throwing it for strikes."
This year Beard has fashioned a 2-1 mark, 1.28 ERA and pitched 42.1 innings. Opposing clubs are batting .231 against him and he has logged 39 strikeouts. |   |
