USM game

[parabrave]

They are not that good. So Btm of 1st 1-0 on a wild pitch by Ligon/ Npw 2-0 on a HR given up by Ligon

[parabrave]

Dam someone go talk to the kid

[msstate7]

And now a walk

[parabrave]

Make that 2.

[msstate7]

I'm trying to hang in there on this team, but this is tough

[parabrave]

Gawd hey catcher call a fing TO and go settle him down/

[The Federalist Engineer]

Ligon can't help us in 2024, he's rehabbing on our time . He was signed before Parker joined. I hope his NIL is $3.00.

[parabrave]

4-0 now.

[BeardoMSU]

Gee. Zeus.

[msstate7]

Man, the braves can't start real games soon enough. This team sucks ass

[parabrave]

Hey we finally threw out a runner!!

[Saltydog]

He's a dead man walking and MOST of us that are being honest with ourselves know that. It's not a question of if, it's when. We're still trash.

[msstate7]

Get a run or 2, dawgs

[msstate7]

And of course we promptly k

[Leeshouldveflanked]

The walkon strikes out?

[msstate7]

And another k... 3 in first 5 outs

[Ranchdawg]

We are just fundamentally awful the first part this game.

[msstate7]

4 of first 6 outs are k

[msstate7]

Haven't our recruiting classes been highly ranked?

[parabrave]

hitless through 2.

[The Federalist Engineer]

In the Cohen-Butch era, the southern Miss pitcher from Meridian community college would be on the MSU roster. Butch was really good at finding crafty guys from local colleges.

Problem is, we're worse. . . . . . .

[parabrave]

Dam I know one USMs coaches. His dad said that they are totally in a rebuilding year. MSU has no business losing to them

Be patient... state is only in year 3 of a 8-year rebuild

[parabrave]

At least Lemom saw enough of Ligon. Stevens in. Its only the 2nd plenty of time to get back.

[Cowbell]

Haven't our recruiting classes been highly ranked?

Too bad you have to have good coaching too

[Ezsoil]

4 of first 6 outs are k

Serious question.....do the players not know that until they learn to hit a curve ....that's all they will see.
I hope Jordan and Hines realize that they won't be drafted very highly and even if they are drafted at all ...they won't last long if they can't hit a curve....

[The Federalist Engineer]

Welcome to the Nolan Stevens fan club, you can just tell the kid is legit

[msstate7]

Atta boy! Hit!

[parabrave]

Hey got a hit.

[msstate7]

Good job, dawgs.

Actually no. The modern era of MLB is batting .240-.255 with 34 HRs and 100+ RBIs.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

The Walkon gets a hit!

[CaptainObvious]

Dam I know one USMs coaches. His dad said that they are totally in a rebuilding year. MSU has no business losing to them

I don't believe him. The first 6 in their order played last year. We also have 6 in the order thst played a lot last year. Imagine be a guy like Hines who was a high rated recruit who will leave after playing 3 years on the second worst collection of State players since Polka last year and Cohen's 1st two years. That tells me he isn't a leader. Alford was an alpha and probably could have been the leader if Lemonis had let him play through his troubles like he has these guys!

[CaptainObvious]

Ah yes. The patented MSU big inning killer. First 2 reach then the dreaded 6-4-3 DP followed by the K looking!

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Lets go Siary. Show us something!

[msstate7]

Gotta first pitch time?

[BeardoMSU]

Gotta first pitch time?

Bump!!!

[Coach34]

Bad outing for Ligon- but here we are

[BeardoMSU]

Tied up

[Cowbell]

If Lemon somehow saves his job, he will owe Mershon some commission. Kid is the pulse of this team right now,

[The Federalist Engineer]

I hope Hardin does ok here, but this kid should only be sharing SWAC duty with Holcombe

[Offshore Dawg]

I hope Hardin does ok here, but this kid should only be sharing SWAC duty with Holcombe

Some of the pitcher experiments need to stop.

[BeardoMSU]

Our baserunning continues to impress...

[parabrave]

Chance saves 2.

[parabrave]

And Dakota with the big one/

[msstate7]

Finish em, dawgs

[Saltydog]

They are not that good. So Btm of 1st 1-0 on a wild pitch by Ligon/ Npw 2-0 on a HR given up by Ligon

Hugesak is a strikeout waiting to happen.

[msstate7]

8 straight scoreless innings... great job by the pitching staff

[mparkerfd20]

Nice win.

[BeardoMSU]

Good win.

[BeardoMSU]

8 straight scoreless innings... great job by the pitching staff

F'n A!

[Coach34]

Dawgs win again!!! 6 in a row

[Coach34]

Some mad State fans pouting right now

[basedog]

Great come back! Winning is all that matters.

[Skydawg1]

Aside from Lems' experiments...we've got ourselves some pitching.

[CJDAWG85]

Nice win. Only concerns are not scoring runs when we have a runner at 3rd with less than 2 outs and Ligon. He has good stuff but he looks mental right now. He doesn’t trust his stuff.

[The Federalist Engineer]

8 shutout innings, 3 hits and 1 walk

Great job from the pen. Nolan Stevens set a new tone for the game. Game MVP.

[Coach34]

It’s soooooo quiet when we win.

[Commercecomet24]

It’s soooooo quiet when we win.

Yeah what's up with that? A lot of posters going Mia when we're winning

[ScoobaDawg]

Great win. Keep picking up confidence and experience. Gonna need it in a couple of weeks... The real season comes fast.

[Tbonewannabe]

We have some players. Pitching is night and day from last year. Nice to see some guys step up in bigger moments.

[Commercecomet24]

This time last year this game would've got away from us and wound up like 12-5, our pitching would've thrown gas on the fire. Pitching is night and day different!

[Skydawg1]

Good point. USM is down a little but nice to have a pen that can pound the zone. Caveat that it was a big zone. But we have 8-10 guys that have shown promise.

[CaptainObvious]

What? State won? The dickens you say. Weeelll doggies! Time to break out the champagne. The Dogs are headed to Omaha and Lemonis is getting a 4 year extension!

That was 2 evenly matched teams playing tonight and State had the better pitching for sure. Also of note, State batters struck out 12 times. You know how many hits State batters got with 2 strikes? Zero. Ze-ro.

5 runs on 7 hits was enough tonight because State mid-week pitching was better then USM mid-week pitching from the 2nd inning on. Was it a good win? It could very well be by the end of the season. Let's see what it means once State gets into SEC play.

We spotted them four runs and won the game. If we start Siary we probably shut them out. Our pitching was the difference tonight. And we had Dakota Jordan.

[DownwardDawg]

8 straight scoreless innings... great job by the pitching staff

Wow. That's impressive. Good win. Couldn't watch it tonight.

[DawgFromOxford]

Solid win. Hitting still needs some work but ultimately they got it done when it counted so hats off to the team

[Bdawg]

Glad they battled and pulled it out. Didn’t get to watch it. Good job pitching after the starter. Quite a few Ks it seems.
