down in the houston cougars dugout rayner noble. taylor wall making things difficult for you tonight. 15 of the last 18 pitches he has thrown has been strikes. >> steve: it's a far cry from what we're doing. he's pitching a nice game. >> reporter: he is throwing three pitches for strikes right now. what do you think about goodnight felt like he had a little trouble commanding the the fast ball. felber hind. kind of willed through those. what did you think about him solid delivery. 15 of the 18 pitches was strikes. the last two innings is picking off where he left off. >> matt: taylor wall is getting back to where he was in the post season a year ago. in 2009 he was sparkling at 2.05 e.r.a.. opponents hit .167 against him. most outstanding player. had a three hit shutout in go. he
