[parabrave]

check the radar to the west of Bryan. It don't look good

[99jc]

looks like it will miss or dissipate before it gets there.

[msstate7]

We struck out 4 times in the 1st.

[99jc]

yeah that sucked...dont have a good feeling early

[msstate7]

And now down 1-0

[Offshore Dawg]

Do any players bat with more 0 & 2 counts than Hunter.

[99jc]

i have a feeling they are going to beat the shit out of us tonight

[Ranchdawg]

I?ve said it before and I?ll say it again bubbles at a ballpark is some gay crud! Par for the course at that place.

[msstate7]

Nice recovery after the hr

[Leroy Jenkins]

That's a lot of pinstripes.

[Coach34]

Dirtbagggggggg!!!!!

[Leroy Jenkins]

Broadcast crew catching on to Mershons 17 pieces of flair.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Siary is doing his job so far.

[99jc]

very surprised so far starting to believe..

[SaintDawg]

Siary is dealing.

[Bdawg]

Man, how many balls did we swing at in the fifth?

[99jc]

win or lose this team is much improved in all phases this season.

[dawgday166]

win or lose this team is much improved in all phases this season.

This is my 3rd game to watch and so far what I've seen doesn't match up with what I've been reading before this past weekend.

This team seems to have a lot of fight in them. They really battle with 2 strikes on them too. They don't sit there and watch strike 3 at all hardly.

[msstate7]

You know, I'm beginning to think Stevens isn't the best player in the country.

[Bdawg]

In a pickle now. Let’s go Stevens!!!

[Saltydog]

Hujsak should've caught that ball.

[msstate7]

Get him out of the game, now!

[CaptainObvious]

Yep. The freshman came out of him in this situation. The moment is bigger because he is in the road. Then Hujsak decides to play softball Short Field instead of center field.

[Leroy Jenkins]

No pressure, rook.

[Saltydog]

Typical day in the life of a MSU sports fan.......

[Bdawg]

Ouch! Grand salami and Stevens is finding way to much plate

[BeardoMSU]

Welp

[msstate7]

Get him out of the game, now!

So effin stupid!!! Anyone that isn't a complete Moron saw that coming. Great job, coaches

[CaptainObvious]

Their Freshman leadoff man is a real man!

[Bdawg]

So effin stupid!!! Anyone that isn't a complete Moron saw that coming. Great job, coaches

Definitely not locating very well

[Activated Alpha]

We all knew we weren't going to keep them to 1 run. Need our offense to come alive these last few innings.

[msstate7]

I can't believe we watched a freshman walk 2 and give up a well hit ball, and we actually thought he could work his way out of it vs one of the best teams in the country. So damn dumb

[Bdawg]

Any reason why Siary was pulled? Allowed only 1 base runner after the homer and looked to be locating well.

[msstate7]

And while I'm pissed at our coaches, we run rules lsu and scored 16 vs Memphis with cupp on the bench. Why in the world would you go back?

[CaptainObvious]

So effin stupid!!! Anyone that isn't a complete Moron saw that coming. Great job, coaches

We saw that movie a lot the last two years. Make a pitching change on a hunch that the starter might be losing his stuff and brings in a guy that can't find his stuff. Meanwhile, they stuck with their guy and he has settled in, getting quick outs in a hurry.

[Bdawg]

And while I'm pissed at our coaches, we run rules lsu and scored 16 vs Memphis with cupp on the bench. Why in the world would you go back?

Yeah that’s a head scratcher to me too. Trying to outsmart ourselves?

[Bdawg]

Time to score. We always needed more than 2 to win

[Leroy Jenkins]

Baseball. Get tattooed one inning, throw 6 pitches the next.

[dawgday166]

Any reason why Siary was pulled? Allowed only 1 base runner after the homer and looked to be locating well.

I didn't understand that either. And then Stevens is still in with no one up in bullpen after all the damage in last inning too. The management of the staff ain't impressing me right now.

[StarkVegasSteve]

We are regressing back to the mean. We are not as good as we looked last week but we are not as bad as we have looked tonight. We are somewhere in the middle. That is probably good enough to make the tournament.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Anything can happen when you get into the pen. Gotta get the starters out ASAP in the SEC.

[msstate7]

Runner on in the 7th down 4, and we let cupp hit. Do we even care?

[Bdawg]

Just don’t get swept this weekend and we will be fine

[Bdawg]

We need the most offense possible right now to make a comeback. I don’t get it either.

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

Dude we're missing our #1 starter on the road vs a top 10 team. If we can win 1/3, that's pretty good. Tomorrow and Saturday are the best odds of stealing one, particularly Saturday where pitching depth begins to favor us. Let's wait 2 more days and reevaluate the team then

[Bdawg]

DJ looked really bad there. Wish he was on for Hines with the oppo taco!!

[Saltydog]

nm

Dakota bailing on every breaking ball......That's got to be corrected and quick......

[Bdawg]

Get this guy home and it’s a 2 run game!

[Saltydog]

A&M has a team that could win it all. I'm not saying they will but all the ingredients are there.

Naw ... we really suck. No really good baseball team will ever be down 6-3 on the road in bottom of the 8th during the regular season. **

[msstate7]

Kohler and cupp have to hit better. I realize catcher will be a black hole, but there's no other option. If we're gonna make a run at the tourney this year, Kohler and cupp can't be black holes, and we can't go defense first on the left side

[Bdawg]

What’s the other 3b option?

[BeardoMSU]

Cool, Cupp...cool.

It's on lemonis, not cupp. It isn't cupp's fault he can't hit for shit. It's lemonis playing him that's the problem

^^^^^THIS^^^^^

Don't disagree.

[Todd4State]

We are regressing back to the mean. We are not as good as we looked last week but we are not as bad as we have looked tonight. We are somewhere in the middle. That is probably good enough to make the tournament.

I disagree. I think we're still figuring out our team to a degree and have found some answers but we're probably in our most difficult stretch of the season. At the same time missing Dohm hurts. But he will be back soon. We may very well have won tonight with him.

We have pitchers that have struggled who are performing better- Holcombe. Ligon, and Loftin and maybe even Pico will be available later. We need to use Logan Forsythe more too. All of those guys back plus Dohm will help out immensely. Evan Siary balled out tonight too.

Hines is starting to heat up and Dakota Jordan is a first round pick playing like it. We found the right lineup combination against LSU and went away from it- hopefully that is short lived.

So yes, this team is more than good enough to make the SEC Tournament and the regionals. I'm guessing we make a nice run the last half of the SEC season. But we'll see.

Yep. We need to bring him in late in games and move Mershon to second to replace Larry. And by late in games I mean no earlier than the 7th inning.

I think that would help Cupp out too because it would ease him in somewhat. He could still get an AB that way more than likely.

[Todd4State]

I'm not sure that Kohler is 100% back from his shoulder injury and I think it's affecting his hitting.

[TNDawg35]

Yep. We need to bring him in late in games and move Mershon to second to replace Larry. And by late in games I mean no earlier than the 7th inning.

I think that would help Cupp out too because it would ease him in somewhat. He could still get an AB that way more than likely.

I agree. Let Cupp have all the midweek at bats at SS, cause he is the future. He just needs to get his bat going. You can platoon Larry and Mersh at 2B/DH during the midweek, but they both need to play come the wknd.

I think we are a good team and what Parker has done makes it even worse the last couple years on Foxhall. I would love to see what Parker could have done with Fristoe, Cade, and even Cerentola. The pitching is there as long as the bats stay hot. Now you’re gonna have games like tonight, we are playing one of the toughest schedules in the country as far as the SEC. Just have to survive and not get swept on the road and win our home series. We will surprise a good team on the road and take a series I believe. UF isn’t looking nearly as tough as we originally thought. They have struggled.

Dohm may be our number 1 but he is not a number 1 in this league. He would be a Sat/Sun guy on most staffs. And as I have always said, multiple times on this very board as well, win your home series and do not get swept on the road and you will be in the NCAA Tournament. We're fine. We can afford a sweep if it happens because you did not believe you were going to get 2 vs LSU. It would suck, but would not doom us.
