Baseball vs. Memphis

[ZedFedder]

2-1 Dawgs top of the 2nd. DJ with a two run shot in the bottom of the first.

[magrooder]

3-2 tigers after top of second. two runs scored on two errors

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Bad News Dawgs return in second inning

[magrooder]

Downs made a diving catch to end the top of the 3rd

[cheewgumm]

Pico looks good

[ZedFedder]

Good to see Pico back. He has more velo (91-92) than I remember.

[BeardoMSU]

Jesus, lol....

At least we're ranked again...

[magrooder]

3 run homer for Mempho 7-3

[ZedFedder]

7-3 Memphis after a 3 run bomb hit off KK Clark.

[ZedFedder]

Enter Colby Holcombe.

[BeardoMSU]

Man, Clark was throwing batting practice...

[maroonmania]

Man, this baseball program absolutely hates prosperity of any kind.

[DawgFromOxford]

Make it 9-3 after a 2 run double

[BeardoMSU]

Welp....

[Offshore Dawg]

Mid week pitching is an adventure still.

[BeardoMSU]

Mid week pitching is an adventure still.

We're Hobbits walking to Mordor**

[ZedFedder]

We have to find a solid starter for the midweek.

[R2Dawg]

Mid week pitching is an adventure still.

Pico been out, Simmons gone, Dohm out just puts too much pressure on mid week pitching. We seem OK on weekend but midweek is tough.

Our hitting needs to step up though

[magrooder]

9-6 with one out in the bottom of the 5th. Trying to rally

[parabrave]

Remember Marathon not sprint/ 9-7 now/

[Commercecomet24]

Dang this bunch is scrappy! Just no quit.

[parabrave]

Ok Larry time for a hit. At least a walk. and a single will do, 9-9/

[Commercecomet24]

Long cuts down on his swing with 2 outs and good things happen

[Bdawg]

Tie game.

[Commercecomet24]

Gotta like this bunch

[parabrave]

Nice to see somebodys else Bullpen melt down. Dakota GS????

[Bdawg]

What an inning. Crazy game of baseball

[magrooder]

10-9 DAWGS

[Leroy Jenkins]

When the bottom of this lineup is just adequate, this offense is very good. It all depends on the bottom 3rd pulling their weight so we have runners on when the top of the lineup comes around.

[bigbub50]

Nobody circles the wagons like the diamond dawgs.

[BeardoMSU]

That pleased me. More, please.

This!

[R2Dawg]

Holcomb looked good. Let him get comfortable on mid week and we'll see what happens. I think he can still get back to contribute from pen.

[R2Dawg]

I'll tell you what this lineup is starting to look pretty salty up and down the line.

[Commercecomet24]

Hujsak and long are my favorite Dawgs on this team

[Commercecomet24]

This team is SO much different than the last 2!

[Commercecomet24]

We've got to where we're just grinding at bats! Fun to watch!

[EdwardDrayton]

This team is real, folks! And they're getting better every week!!! Hop on brethren; this train is picking up speed!!

[EdwardDrayton]

Park DJ spins a little Marc Cohn Walking in Memphis. Nicely done.

[Commercecomet24]

You are correct sir!

[BeardoMSU]

Colby pitching well. Much needed.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Hujsak and long are my favorite Dawgs on this team

I agree with you 90% of the time, but Mersh is probably my favorite. He's so valuable.

Plays multiple positions. Switch hitter and puts the ball in play. Can sacrifice or bunt for a hit. Puts pressure on when he's on the bases. Great attitude.

Just a ballpayer.

[BeardoMSU]

That was AL's walkout song, right?

[SaintDawg]

He hit that one a ton!

[EdwardDrayton]

Now that was a huge sack shot!

[EdwardDrayton]

That was AL's walkout song, right?

AL? Sorry Beard. You'll have to lead me by the hand. My cognitive functioning still is not back to normal.

[BeardoMSU]

MOOORRRREEE!!!

[BeardoMSU]

AL? Sorry Beard. You'll have to lead me by the hand. My cognitive functioning still is not back to normal.

Amani Larry

[ZedFedder]

Man, what an answer.

[ZedFedder]

Holcombe down 3-0 and comes back to strikeout the Memphis batter. Wow! Though I do think it was a ball. Haha

[Mjoelner34]

Hujsak and long are my favorite Dawgs on this team

I like the way Huge Sack drops to a bunt position on a 3-0 or 3-1 count just before the pitcher releases the ball. Doing that as soon as the pitcher starts his motion probably won't have much of an effect but waiting as late as he does, I'm sure it gets in their head at the last second.

[EdwardDrayton]

Amani Larry

Not sure about that. Walked back into the room with my dinner and a cocktail and heard a snippet of the song.

[BeardoMSU]

Not sure about that. Walked back into the room with my dinner and a cocktail and heard a snippet of the song.

Well now he has a different song playing, so maybe it's dealer's choice for the PA guy tonight, lol.

[magrooder]

Stevens is a straight up player.

[BeardoMSU]

We're pretty good, y'all.

Gritty. Never give up. And we smash!

[CaptainObvious]

Who says baseball is boring? It is an extremely exciting game when your team is hitting the baseball like these last 4 games. I sure hope the contagion turns into an epidemic this weekend.

[Commercecomet24]

If there anyone that can't like this team I don't know what to tell you!

He's just a kid having fun playing baseball! I love to see that now, because there's to many posers out there. He just plays so hard and is always hustling

[Commercecomet24]

I love Mershon too! He's in my top 3! There's a lot of gamers on this team and I love seeing it!

[DownwardDawg]

Wow!!!! What happened??? I'm at work. Looked at the score and it was 9-3 Memphis. I was like whatever, win 2 this weekend and it doesn't matter. I came back inside the office and grabbed my phone and looked at the score!!! Damn!!!

[Mjoelner34]

Does anyone remember the Cerantola vs. Memphis game? This memory may have grown inside my head like a fish story but I swear we were down 7-0 before we ever recorded an out then we ended up winning 15-12.

[ZedFedder]

Colby Holcombe finally looked like what we thought he could look like.

[Commercecomet24]

Wow!!!! What happened??? I'm at work. Looked at the score and it was 9-3 Memphis. I was like whatever, win 2 this weekend and it doesn't matter. I came back inside the office and grabbed my phone and looked at the score!!! Damn!!!

Don't ever throw in the towel on this bunch! They're hardcore gamers

[Commercecomet24]

2 great outings in a row for him!

[EdwardDrayton]

If there anyone that can't like this team I don't know what to tell you!

We've had to endure a couple of seasons but Dawg baseball is fun again. Hang on for the ride; the best is yet to come!!

[maroonmania]

Not sure what's happened the last 4 games but it's like our offense has awoken from a slumber. 10, 8, 15 and 17 runs. Hope we can keep it going.

[R2Dawg]

I hate to say 100% but it sure looks like we're back.

My wife even asked me earlier if they make Omaha are we going, I'm like well yeah. She just casually paying attention right now and she is already feeling it.

Yes I know its a long season and we got a real tough start to SEC play but we got something brewing.

[ZedFedder]

Maybe it really was just all on Foxhall.

[DownwardDawg]

Don't ever throw in the towel on this bunch! They're hardcore gamers

I love the fire.

[Todd4State]

2 great outings in a row for him!

May be time to see what he can do against a SEC team for an inning.

[Commercecomet24]

I agree. Maybe we can get him in a lower leverage situation and get his feet wet. He's looking good.

[BeardoMSU]

Aye

[basedog]

Nothing like winning. Glad to see Holcombe having some success. 17 runs regardless of competition is a good thing.

Now let’s get the series against the Aggies.

[Cowbell]

Maybe it really was just all on Foxhall.

A combination of that and some bad ego players that were not gamers

[Commercecomet24]

This right here! Lots of individuals not as focused on the team aspect.

[Todd4State]

I agree. Maybe we can get him in a lower leverage situation and get his feet wet. He's looking good.

One thing we are seeing this year that we definitely didn't see the last two years- guys like Holcombe improving and getting better in season. I just wonder what Parker could have done with guys like KC Hunt and Parker Stinnett?

Add Cerantola to that list.

Ever since we moved Trout out of the 5-hole the offense has taken off

[StarkVegasSteve]

It was either 10-1 or 10-2 after 1 inning if my memory serves me correct.
