    He's hitting 400..... so maybe he's ok.... it's who he is. He's gotten better about not swinging at as many balls. But if it's a strike he's swinging. He's got the best bat control I've ever seen. He squares up more than anyone in the league. I'll give him a pass
    Did it bother you when he swung at the first pitch of the game and got a hit? I'll answer for you no. That's what everyone says when he gets out, but not when it works.

    It is tough when you face way below normal hit speed.

    They’ve seen him enough to adjust. This is the 4th time through the order.

    That was an abysmal plate approach in the 7th. Awful.

    Need to get on him here and at least win this one 4 or 5 to 1 but our batting has sucked tonight.

    I agree with Matt they should have just looked off speed all night knowing they could hit the fastball. His curve ball is as fast as his fastball.

    Is this will James?? Holy shit. Matt knows nothing about baseball. That's just stupid. You can look soft on a particular pitch but not as a rule. No. Just no.

    Matt also said we should think about sac bunting w one out. That should tell you all you need to know.

    You can berate me all you want and it won’t change the fact that it’s ****ing 1-1 going to the 8th.

    The guy’s fastball is the same speed as his offspeed stuff. If you look fastball you are going to look dumb as soft as a thrower as this guy was. That’s what happened. We looked fastball all night and this soft thrower made us look silly.

    It also won’t change the fact we are 31-6. Bad games happen. Find a way to win and learn from it. The UNA loss hasn’t hurt Mississippi if they finish strong. Great teams have battles with bad teams in baseball. We ain’t immune

    That loss might be the difference between them hosting and being a 2 seed. Trust me it hurts. That loss LSU had to Southern will hurt their ass too.

    I'm not berating you. It was just a bad baseball comment. And it's baseball. Game isn't over either. But carry on w your melt

    It's not like he's shoving it up our ass. We had 7 hits 3 times through the order we just haven't scored. So another melting comment. Just ridiculous.

    Believe what you want but if you are a Top 2 team in the SEC you negate a bad mid week game.
