    How many balls in the dirt did we swing at in the first?

    Don't swing at the sliders and we will be okay. Key is to swing at his fastballs and only expect fastballs. The A&M pitcher is the same as JB. He didn't throw his slider for a strike but you go down 1-2 or 0-2 and your toast.

    Why wouldn't you walk him to setup a double play ball? It was 3-0 count. Would have put runners at corners with 1 out. Instead, RBI SAC

    They only got 1 in the first. It's going to take more then one run to win this game.

    Honestly, he's the most disappointing player on the team, IMO when compared to

    expectations. The most surprising is Girdley and/or Brown.

    And again a walk or wild pitch helps lead to a run.

    I like that strategy late in games, but not early

    As free swinging as we are and as much as we refuse to walk I honestly wonder why other coaches' don't instruct their pitchers not to ever throw us strikes unless they have to.

    It doesn't matter how we pitch today if we don't hit.

    The balls we swing at aren't even close to the strike zone. Macnamee's at bat there was comical.

    Damn, this guy hasn't throw that slider for a strike yet but yet we still keep

    swinging at that shit. NO plate discipline whatsoever. It's pathetic. If it's breaking, don't swing at it, period until he can show he can consistently throw it for a strike.

    Whatever you are smoking pass it over. The team refuses to LOOK at anything.

    You look freaking fastball and lock on to it. You don't swing until you get a fastball. That kid has not thrown a strike without us swinging on that slider.
