Thank God that road trip is over. TCU had about the worst trip to California that anyone has ever had this weekend. A day removed from watching their No. 1 ranking slip away after losing the weekend series to UC Irvine, absolutely nothing went right for the Horned Frogs in Long Beach. Well, Brian Howard had a great inning of work to start. A couple of things went well, but its hard not to call this road trip a disaster at this point.
Howard did open the game with a three-up-three-down first inning, which was encouraging considering his first inning struggles in his last two starts.
