5/8/24: Overrated, Underrated , Rated Right – Summer Treats, Raiderland Hot-Links Featuring Texas Tech Softball, Reggie Miller Goes Off, Bartolo Colon Goes Deep, Joanie Loves Chachi Plus Red Raider Football Game Themes

Brought to you in part by The Reserve, A Culinary Tavern. 103rd and Quaker in Lubbock, a great and varied menu, fun cocktails and superb brunch. What more to you need? How about all the Texas Tech games on TV? Yep, they’ll do that too!

Happy Wednesday, y’all !

With no mid-week game to recap for Texas Tech Baseball we’re all kinda sitting around waiting on the weekend series at Stillwater. Which is never fun…

In all the years I called Tech Baseball on radio, I never worked a series at Oklahoma State. It seemed to always fall while I was calling Lady Raider Basketball in March. I don’t feel like I got cheated out of anything. The annual trips to Stillwater for hoops were enough for me to get my Eskimo Joe’s fix and bring home enough plastic cups from there to last the year.

it’s kinda funny how some of those trips worked out back in the day. Mark Finkner was the lead voice then so he got all the trips and I filled in when I could until hoops ended. Back in the 90s and early 2000s, that usually meant late may or even April for the Lady Raiders. Hope that becomes the norm again soon for that program.

So there were a few places I never had the joy of calling a Big 12 Baseball game at… OSU, and Texas A&M.

Again. I don’t feel completely cheated out of anything on that deal!

Tonight on the Daily Broadcast we’ll look at Tech Baseball and much more. So join us LIVE at 6:30 on Twitter, YouTube and Facebook. Sorry about no show Tuesday. We’re in the middle of senior year of high school banquet season. One last night, one Thursday, I think we’ve got another next Monday and then rumor is our son graduates next Friday night. We’ll keep you posted. So if we’re a little hit and miss then next few days, I hope y’all will understand.
