The series over in Forth Worth really didn\u2019t go all that well for the Texas Tech Red Raiders<\/a>. And there\u2019s plenty of angles that we can discuss there. We can talk about all of the pitching issues that the Texas Tech baseball team has (which we\u2019ll get into soon enough in another post, I\u2019m sure).\u00a0<\/p>\n

But for right now, let\u2019s just sit back and enjoy the things that the Red Raiders do well. Like being among the best in the Big 12<\/a> when it comes to getting extra base hits. Especially doubles. Texas Tech is basically the best in the Big 12 when it comes to hitting doubles. There\u2019s just one other team in the conference that is having as much success at hitting doubles as the Red Raiders are.<\/p>\n

Right now, that\u2019s the Kansas State Wildcats, who have also managed to hit 77 doubles on the season so far.\u00a0<\/p>\n

77 doubles and counting: The Texas Tech Red Raiders and the Kansas State Wildcats lead the Big 12<\/p>\n

For our purposes, we\u2019re going to put the Red Raiders first on this bulleted list:\u00a0<\/p>\n

Texas Tech Red Raiders – 77 doublesKansas State Wildcats – 77 doublesWest Virginia Mountaineers – 60 doublesCincinnati Bearcats – 56 doublesArizona State Sun Devils – 55 doublesOklahoma State Cowboys – 54 doublesHouston Cougars – 54 doublesBYU Cougars – 52 doublesUtah Utes – 51 doublesArizona Wildcats – 50 doublesKansas Jayhawks – 46 doublesBaylor Bears – 44 doublesUCF Knights – 43 doublesTCU Horned Frogs – 32 doubles<\/p>\n

For Texas Tech specifically, Caden Ferraro (one of the Red Raiders\u2019 best hitters) is leading the way for the Red Raiders with 11 doubles on the season. Linkin Garcia isn\u2019t far behind with 10 and then there\u2019s Logan Huges with nine.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s so interesting to see how different teams operate. Just speaking objectively for a moment, college baseball is such an intriguing sport because it\u2019s clear that the TCU Horned Frogs and Texas Tech Red Raiders operate so very differently and yet TCU still managed to claim the series via a sweep over the weekend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The series over in Forth Worth really didn\u2019t go all that well for the Texas Tech Red Raiders.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":227160,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[116,118,117],"class_list":{"0":"post-227159","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-fort-worth","8":"tag-fort-worth","9":"tag-fort-worth-headlines","10":"tag-fort-worth-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/227159","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=227159"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/227159\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/227160"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=227159"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=227159"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=227159"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
